Review of Maniac Cop (1988) by Mike P — 04 May 2014
(53%).
A reasonably strong mid-budget slasher that's hampered by its slow pace and a somewhat directionless script. Roundtree is wasted and has only about two scenes, and the focus on Campbell goes AWOL for large sections when this really should be his movie. It has lost a lot of shock value it had from way back when, and is now quite tame. Fans of 80's cheapo horror cinema should give this a watch as despite its problems it's still a minor B-movie classic.
