A sequel even more highly regarded than the cult-classic original, the second installment in William Lustig and Larry Cohen’s Maniac Cop series delivers even more audacious, action-packed grindhouse thrills. The Maniac Cop is back from the dead and stalking the streets of New York once more. Officer Matt Cordell (Robert Z’Dar) 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 who wronged him and make them pay.
