The DVD says:

On the last night of summer camp, the story is told of "Madman Marz" - a berserk local farmer who butchered his entire family before disappearing into the woods forever. You must not say his name above a whisper the legend says, because if he hears you, he will come for you. But when a cocky young teen ridicules the tale and calls the madman's name out loud, the maniacal evil is unleashed. Summer may be over, but the ferocious bloodshed has just begun! A long-time favourite of hardcore horror fans, Madman stood out from the pack of '80s "body count" films by delivering scary suspense, gruesome effects and sheer nastiness, including its infamous "head under the car hood" scene!

My Opinion:

This is the first uncut release in the UK for this slasher in the woods movie. Though it has a small cult following this film is really just a rip off of Friday the 13th. Okay, it's a good rip off with some excellent death scenes and lots of blood to boot and Anchor Bay have produced an excellent release with a 5.1 soundtrack and nice widescreen presentation. The DVD extras are limited to a trailer and some TV spots.
