Directed by: William Lustig
Starring: Robert Davi, Robert Z'Dar, Caitlin Dulany, Gretchen Becker
Revealing mistake: At the end of the movie with Matt Cordell (Maniac Cop) chasing after the detective in a police car while being set on fire, you can see the safety goggles under his mask in several of the changing shots in this stunt scene.
Other mistake: The scene in the hospital, where Maniac Cop shots two people on the stairs is not in the hospital. It's a scene taken from Maniac Cop 2 during the police station massacre.
Det. Sean McKinney: I can't imagine the kind of pain you feel Matt. I'm not gonna pretend to. But don't condemn her to the same fate. She deserves better. You cleared her. She's at peace. Let her go, Matt. Let her go.
Matt Cordell: Talking to the voo-doo man "Finish it.
Trivia: The initial cut of the film came in at under one hour. Original director William Lustig refused to shoot any new scenes and walked away from the production. Joel Soisson was brought in to direct several new scenes to pad the film out. Additionally, outtakes and clips from "Maniac Cop 2" were also spliced into the film to lightly pad the runtime.
