I can't believe I went this long without making a Maniac Cop thread. Haha.
Anyway, I dig these movies so much that a friend & I ended up making a website dedicated to the Maniac Cop films.
My favorite fluctuates between Maniac Cop & Maniac Cop 2. At the moment, Maniac Cop 2 is my favorite. Overall, it's a solid trilogy. Maniac Cop 3 is hated by many but I think it's pretty underrated.
They're fun little B-movies.

I still have not watched these for some ungodly reason. And it blows me away too, because you and I seem to share a lot of similar movie interests.
Do you think they'd be something I'd enjoy? And where could I pick them up for a good price?

I'm sure you'd enjoy them. Here some trailers if you want to give 'em a watch sometime.
You'll probably have to grab them off the net. I've never seen any of them in stores. The best version of the first is the Synapse Films special edition or if you want a cheap copy, get the Legacy DVD. It's really poor quality though. The First Look DVD is the only one out for Maniac Cop 2 & could be expensive but I could be wrong because it may have went back into print. I'd check Amazon. It's in full screen & is of about laserdisc quality. The First Look DVD for Maniac Cop 3 is the best to get & should be cheap.

Maniac Cop rooooooooooooooooocks. The series is solid stuff, evenly made from start to finish.
Flyboy and his partner have the market cornered on kick-ass Maniac Cop websites. I hear the government is going to try and break them up into smaller websites, something about a monopoly on kickass Maniac Cop website stuff, I don't know.

I can't believe no one decided to make a Maniac Cop site before Andrew & me. Crazy stuff. Maybe one existed in the late 1990s or so but kind of died out but I kind of doubt it.
