Maniac Cop (DVD)
|
|
The DVD says: New York City is terrorised by a series of brutal bloody murders of innocent victims. The police boil in a pressure cooker of public outcry because it is discovered that the killer is a cop. The prime suspect is Jack Forrest (Bruce Cambell), a young policeman who, through a series of unfortunate coincidences, is pinned as the maniac killer. Desperate for a suspect the police arrest him. Jack escapes and, aided by his lover Teresa (Laurene Landon), an undercover policewoman, is out to prove his innocence. The killings continue, and the city is alive with a frantic manhunt for Jack. Citizens arm themselves, innocent policemen are killed by the nervous populace. The city is coming apart at the seams. Detective Frank Mcrae (Tom Atkins) eventually discovers the bizarre secret of the real killer. A secret that would clear Jack. But McRae too falls victim to the maniac cop. In a chilling chase across the city, Jack and Teresa are left to rid New York of the most dreaded of all criminals... a MANIAC COP! Running Time: 81 mins Region: 0 Ratio: 4:3 Sound: Dolby Digital 2.0 Special Features: Trailer. Certificate: 18 My Opinion: Bruce Campbell is no where near his best in his role in this classic movie. The cop on the rampage story is good and was to start a line of sequels. The DVD, though titled as a Collector's Edition, is in fact just a bog standard release with just a trailer included as an extra. It's a Syn that Synergy should try to cash in using these poor releases. |
