Williams Lustig's Maniac (1980) is a dark, controversial horror film about a serial killer on a rampage starring Joe Spinell. It's themes of mental illness and deep seeded trauma are explored even further in the 2012 remake starring Elijah Wood. This week IOTR is joined by the horror queen, Breanna Whipple of Heavy Horror to explore both films. Keep your hair on because this episode is better than a shotgun to the face!
