Two years after making grindhouse history with Maniac, Joe Spinell and Caroline Munro reunited for a shocker filmed guerilla-style at the 1981 Cannes Film Festival and presented here totally uncut for the first time ever: When a disturbed NYC cabbie dreams of becoming a horror auteur, he’ll stalk the genre’s most popular actress across the French Riviera for a cinephiles’ orgy of unwitting celebrities, topless starlets, graphic gore, Munro at her sexiest and Spinell at the peak of his skeevy genius.

Co-writer/producer Judd Hamilton (Starcrash), director/co-writer David Winters (West Side Story) and Filomena Spagnuolo (Joe’s mom) co-star in “an awesome movie and Spinell’s best film” (Bloody Disgusting), now scanned in 4K from the original negative with additional scenes sourced from a 35mm print discovered at Cinémathèque Française.

The release will be available as part of Severin’s Summer Sale beginning June 30.
