Maniac Man and Mannequin

Plot Frank (Wood) is a deranged mamma’s boy in the classic Perkins mould; by day he restores vintage mannequins, by night he stalks, murders and scalps women to provide bangs for their plastic bonces. When he meets arty photographer Anna (Arnezeder), he is delighted to find out that her favourite subject is... you guessed it... mannequins! Verdict At last an intelligent horror remake that understands its source material and yet brings something new to the butcher’s slab. Gritty, gory, and the best movie about Mannequins since Andrew McCarthy got the hots for his.
