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.

Perfect substitute for Friday the 13th
Great campy 80s fun slasher! He’s great at parties!🎉
This is perfect. MAGESTIC. So much better than most of its peers. I saw this at the movies in 1983. Keep in mind, this was in development at the exact same time as Friday & The Burning. Stars Dawn of the Dead's Gaylen Ross under a different name because of union issues. And she shows her boobs, which don't matter to me, but very nice. The guy shows his butt.
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.
