Movie Info

An American artist travels to rural France for a relaxing vacation and ends up falling for a lovely young woman, whose father is the owner of a cafe. Unfortunately, her father is not in town, as he is locked up in the local looney bin for immolating the man who raped his daughter. The trouble begins when the girl's stepmother seduces the artist and then convinces him to help her free her murderous husband, a man who cannot bear the thought of a man touching his beloved daughter. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

"Maniac is a step above another one of my Hammer favorites, The Snorkel, and manages to be a film that's even more thrilling, dark, murderous and mysterious with ten times the twists and turns." Full review at: http://www.commonsensemoviereviews.com/2010/07/maniac-1963.html
