Maniac Cop (2008)
** 1/2 (out of 4)
This promotional film was made in the hopes that it could kick start a remake or reworking of the 1988 cult film. In recent years Lustig and Cohen have talked about a remake so this was an attempt to start that up. In the film a woman is walking home alone when two thugs attack her. Soon a cop shows up but not the one any of the three wanted to see. This is a pretty good short that shows that the filmmakers can at least handle a camera and deliver a story. There's nothing overly great here but that really wasn't the purpose of the short anyways. On the technical side the film is impressive as a nice atmosphere is built up and we also get a good look of the city. There are a couple homages to the original film that are nice but the highlight is certainly the very end of the movie. This is done extremely well by the filmmakers so fans of the original series will want to check this one out.
