As the States are still eagerly awaiting for IFC to set a release date for the Franck Khalfoun directed remake of the 1981 cult classic Maniac, the cool cats across the pond in the UK will get to see one of the most talked about horror films of 2012 on March 15th. You can check out the latest official quad poster courtesy of Empire below featuring the Maniac himself, Elijah Wood.
Adopting the original film’s tagline, I Warned You Not to Go Out Tonight, the poster is quite disturbing as it surrounds Wood with the body parts of dismembered mannequins. Note to self: Always be nice to the creeper working in a mannequin shop.
Frank is the withdrawn owner of a mannequin store, but his life changes when young artist Anna appears asking for his help with her new exhibition.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.
