Talk:Maniac

The dagger is a bayonet. You can tell by the loop and the quillon. --Funkychinaman 16:50, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

Machete

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 violin case (same one used to held the shotgun) by one of the mannequins of killed girls with her scalps on it, and then used to cut out Zito's arm. Interesting 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.

Machete with Tom Savini autograph on it. Original prop used in "Maniac" and Dawn of the Dead (1978). Note that it rust because of fake blood. Real blood also terribly effective rust agent.
