NSFW ‘Maniac’ Trailer: Gaze Into Elijah Wood’s Terrifying Eyes

Manaic

The first trailer for Franck Khalfoun‘s Maniac showed just how dark and sadistic Elijah Wood can get. The film is a remake of the 1980s version of the same name, but this time features the kills from the character’s point of view. In the film, Wood plays a psychopathic killer who takes the scalps of his victims and attaches them to the mannequins he creates. Check out the trailer below.

Once again, this trailer is very brutal and very bloody, so if you are not comfortable with graphic depictions of violence and nudity, I suggest you turn back now. Otherwise, enjoy the trailer.

Maniac is based on William Lustig‘s film of the same name, which was released back in 1980, and features the same story. But Alexandre Aja, Grégory Levasseur and C.A. Rosenberg penned the script for a contemporary feel that’s in the spirit of Lustig’s Maniac.

The film has no U.S. release date as of now, however, if you are going to the country of France anytime soon, the film opens in France on December 26 of this year.

Thanks to The Playlist for the trailer.

Here’s the official plot synopsis:

Frank Zito (Elijah Wood) is a mentally disturbed man who lives with his mother, Angela (America Olivo), way into his adulthood which turns him into a lonely individual. Soon after his mother’s death, Frank begins to go on a killing spree, murdering innocent and young woman and having a deep desire for scalping them. Frank becomes a professional serial killer but begins to have hard times with his work when he meets and befriends another woman named Anna (Nora Arnezeder), an artist who is beginning to open up an art exhibit. As a relationship forms between the two, Frank begins to struggle for what he really wants; another scalp as a trophy or real love.
