First Shots Of Elijah Wood In MANIAC Remake
Frodo as a sexually depraved killer? We've had a bit of time to get used to the idea as word came out of the AFM that Elijah Wood had been cast as the lead in the Alexandre Aja produced, Franck Khalfoun directed remake of William Lustig's Maniac.
The plan is for Khalfoun to shoot the film largely from the killer's POV, so how much Wood will actually appear on screen is yet to be seen but the first behind the scenes shots from the picture have just hit the web and Wood is front and center, certainly not appearing shy about getting his hands dirty. Check the gallery 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Frank is the withdrawn owner of a mannequin store, but his life changes when young artist Anna appears asking for his help with her new exhibition.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.
A 21st century Jack the Ripper set in present-day LA, MANIAC is a re-boot of the cult film considered by many to be the most suspenseful slasher movie ever made - an intimate, visually daring, psychologically complex and profoundly horrific trip into the downward spiralling nightmare of a killer and his victims.
