Madman (1981) is a cult 80s slasher about a group of summer camp counselors who invoke the wrath of a local legend, Madman Marz. As night falls, the campers are hunted one by one in the woods, delivering a mix of rural backwoods horror, campfire folklore, and classic slasher kills. Often compared to Friday the 13th, the film has gained a devoted cult following as one of the early 80s body-count slashers.

THEY THOUGHT THEY WERE ALONE.

Gather around the campfire, and hearthe tale of Madman Marz an ill-tempered farmer who, one dark night, chopped up his wife and two children into pieces. When the locals learned of his heinous crimes, they exacted revenge sinking an axe into his head and hanging him from a nearby tree. But the next day, Marz s body was gone...

Thus the camp counsellor finishes his tale, closing with the warning never to say Marz s name above a whisper, lest the hideously-deformed farmer comes looking for them. Naturally, the first thing that one of the young campers does is calls out Marz s name precipitating a terrifying night of murder, mayhem and sexy Jacuzzi vignettes!

Inspired by the same Cropsey urban legend which informed 1981 s The Burning and starring Dawn of the Dead s Gaylen Ross (appearing under the pseudonym Alexis Dubin ), Madman stands as one of the finest offerings from the golden age of hack n slash.
