A new teaser trailer for the Franck Khalfoun helmed remake of psycho flick ‘Maniac’, starring Elijah Wood (‘Sin City’), has emerged from the Cannes Film Festival. The movie co-stars Nora Arnezeder (‘Safe House’), Hank Azaria (‘Run Fatboy Run’), America Olivo (‘Bitch Slap’, ‘No One Lives’) and Sal Landi and the freaky new teaser which is largely POV features various elements of brutality, nudity, horror and a topless chick. Alexandre Aja (‘The Hills Have Eyes’, ‘Mirrors’, ‘Piranha 3D’) and co-writer Grégory Levasseur once again get their teeth into a redo by providing the script based on the original William Lustig helmed horror from 1980. You can check out the new teaser below.
“Just when the streets seemed safe, a serial killer with a fetish for scalps is back and on the hunt. Frank is the withdrawn owner of a mannequin store, but his life changes when young artist Anna appears asking for his help with her new exhibition. As their friendship develops and Frank’s obsession escalates, it becomes clear that she has unleashed a long-repressed compulsion to stalk and kill.”
