Maniac is a 1980 cult horror slasher/splatter directed by William Lustig, most known for famed character actor Joe Spinell outstanding performance as a psychotic serial killer Frank Zito, incredible special make-up effects by genre cult guru Tom Savini and neo-noir dark romantic depiction of New York.
Frank Zito (Joe Spinell) using unknown double barelled shotgun in the most known scene of the movie, where he shoots disco boy (Tom Savini) and disco girl (Hyla Marrow)with it in their car. Zito uses viloin case to illegaly hide his weapon, when he's in the city.
Frank Zito using unknown pistol held in special case, while practising shooting in his appartament. He didn't fire this pistol in the movie, but there is a bullet holes in the wall, presumebly by bullets shot from this pistol.
One of Frank Zito's weapons in the film is rarely used machete. In the film it's mostly seen on the table until hallucination scene, where it's picked up from the viloin case (same one used to held the shotgun) by one of the maneqins of killed girls with her scalps on it, and then used to cut out Zito's arm.
Intersting fact, that it was the same prop machete, that was used by Tom Savini in Dawn of the dead (1978) as motorcycle rider named Blades.
Bayonet (you can tell it the loop and the quillon) used by Zito in the scene, where he chases nurse (Kelly Piper)in the subway station and then killing her in station's toilet with this bayonet in the back.
