6:00 PM: Psycho Cop Returns
"You have the right… to remain DEAD!" Join us for a fully uncensored, director-approved restoration of Adam Rifkin's (THE INVISIBLE MANIAC, DETROIT ROCK CITY) outrageously gory, filled with nudity, and bitingly funny, no-holds-barred ‘90s slasher exploitation classic about the satanic vindicator, PSYCHO COP RETURNS!

7:30 PM: Maniac Cop 2
The "Maniac Cop" is back from the dead and stalking the streets of New York once more. Officer Matt Cordell was once a hero, but after being framed by corrupt superiors and brutally assaulted in prison, he sets out on a macabre mission of vengeance, teaming up with a vicious serial killer to track down those that wronged him and make them pay… with their lives! Robert Davi (DIE HARD), Claudia Christian (THE HIDDEN), Michael Lerner (BARTON FINK), Laurene Landon (HUNDRA), Leo Rossi (HALLOWEEN II), Robert Z'Dar (TANGO & CASH), Charles Napier (THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS), and Bruce Campbell (THE EVIL DEAD) star in this chilling, action-packed sequel written by Larry Cohen (IT'S ALIVE) and directed by William Lustig (MANIAC, VIGILANTE).

9:30 PM: Maniac
Frank Zito (a career performance by writer/executive producer Joe Spinell of ROCKY and THE GODFATHER fame) is a deeply disturbed man, haunted by the traumas of unspeakable childhood abuse. And when these horrific memories begin to scream inside his mind, Frank prowls the seedy streets of New York City to stalk and slaughter innocent young women, scalping his victims and putting the trophies on mannequins which he takes to bed with him at night. Now Frank has begun a relationship with a beautiful photographer (Caroline Munro of THE SPY WHO LOVED ME), yet his vile compulsions remain. These are the atrocities of a human monster. This is the story of a MANIAC. Directed by William Lustig (MANIAC COP 2, VIGILANTE) and featuring landmark gore effects by Tom Savini (DAWN OF THE DEAD, FRIDAY THE 13th), this relentlessly shocking and disturbing film was originally banned or censored all over the world due to it's graphic violence.

11:00 PM: The Invisible Maniac
With its tongue planted firmly in its cheek (among other places) Adam Rifkin's (CHILLERAMA, DETROIT ROCK CITY) send-up of 1950's "mad scientist" flicks answers the question mankind has asked for… who knows… MILLIONS OF YEARS. How to get away with the murder of your friends and co-workers while also spying on girls in locker-room-eqsque scenarios without getting caught. It's all here! For you! YOU'RE WELCOME!
