The price of the movie is not bad at all, but the movie is really enjoyable. I liked the pace of the movie because there was not a part that was boring or unnecessary. I thought the killings were also well paced, there was alot but not overdone like some other movies. I highly recommend this film if you like horror films, you wont be disappointed. I think the reason why the reviewer who hated Bruce Campbell in the film was because he played a rather serious role, rather then a goofy part. I also enjoyed Tom Atkins, he's in alot of good unseen 80's horror movies.
February 27, 2008THIS IS NO OSCAR WORTHY MOVIE BY FAR.BUT IT IS FUN AN ENTERTAINING.I MET ROBERT ZDAR WHO PLAYS MANIAC COP AND HE WAS A GREAT GUY TO HIS FANS AND GAVE ME A GREAT AUTOGRAPH.IN THE MOVIE HE PLAYS A CRAZED COP WHO IS SET UP BY THE VERY PEOPLE HE PROTECTED.IN PRISON HE IS KILLED BUT RETURNS BECAUSE HE CANT REST IN PEACE UNTIL HIS NAME IS CLEARED.BRUCE CAMPBELL IS ALSO IN THIS FUN MOVIE.YOU CANT BEAT IT FOR THE PRICE.
April 20, 2006This is a classic cheesey slasher flick. Cool villian, cool death scenes, basically no plot. Everything you need for an entertaining, enjoyable 1980's cheesefest. Highly reccomended for fans of bad 80's low budget slashers. I love it!
March 4, 2006 |  | the worst bruce campbell appearance ive seen. |  |
i got this rare bare bones dvd movie of maniac cop because i had heard about how awesome bruce campbell is in it. i love the evil dead trilogy, bubba ho-tep, alien apocolypse, and man with the screaming brain and i must say that this movie blows. picture your typical late 80's cop movie that is really boring and add a psycho zombie cop that kills people. bruce campbell plays the most trite and boring character i have ever seen him play. i dont recommend this movie to fans of bruce campbell. if you like a boring cop movie mixed with a movie like halloween or friday the 13th then by all means purchase this cheap dvd. i should start learning to stay away from ultra cheap movies, for they sometimes can be amazingly funny or horribly bad. this is an example of horribly bad.
January 21, 2006Interesting premise to a movie, a nice twist on the average slasher horror movie. Bruce Campbell stars in a darkly comic role and you are never sure if you should trust him. One thing this horror movie definitely has is the ability to make you guess. If you enjoy slashers and of course, the acting of Bruce Campbell, you will love this movie.
