Madman

Madman

Directed by Joe Giannone

In this cult slasher classic, a maniacal killer named Madman Marz stalks a summer camp after a boy who doesn’t believe the urban legend screams his name into the woods. Now the psycho who brutally murdered his family and escaped into the woods is back, turning the campers’ summer vacation into their last days on Earth. Joe Giannone’s first and only cinematic endeavor became a huge hit on VHS, endearing it to a generation of ‘80s slasher fans. Watch it back to back with CROPSEY - the Shudder doc about the inspiration for Madman Marz - for maximum chills.

Fun campy slasher film. Beware of Madman Marz!

Pretty lackluster, madman marz looks bad when you see his face. Acting is bad even for this fanfare.

You could talk me into a 2.5 but I already give it a slight pass for being so early in the slasher boom so a 2 seems to fit. Not horrible by any means but just kind of meh. A lot of the kills are off screen or they hide it behind a log or a rock or something else in the frame. The acting isn’t great, the plot isn’t either, and it just isn’t that interesting. Would maybe only recommend to slasher lovers who are completionists. There are many better slashers from this era you should watch instead.
