Our Psychotronic Summer series is coming to a close this week. End cap things off, we're taking a look at a film that was released 30 years ago, 1988's MANIAC COP, starring cult icons Tom Atkins, Bruce Campbell and Richard Roundtree!

Does MANIAC COP hold up after three decades? How do its themes resonate today, and how do events in New York City in the 70s and 80s that inspired the film compare to our current relationship with law enforcement? And just how magical is that chin on Robert Z'Dar?

We'd love to hear your thoughts! Contact us at any of the social media accounts listed below, or be a part of the show by calling us at (864) 371-9931 and leaving us a voicemail of 3 minutes or less and we'll use it on our next episode!
