City Maniac is an interesting piece from '95 that dives deep into the psyche of a cop who’s lost everything. Dan's descent into madness is raw and unfiltered, with an unsettling atmosphere that lingers. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it works to build tension as we witness his transformation. The practical effects, while not groundbreaking, add a gritty touch that feels authentic to the crime-drama genre. Performances are notable, especially how they capture the unraveling of a man pushed to his limits. It has this unsettling vibe – like you’re watching a train wreck unfold. It's not for everyone, but it has its own unique flavor that makes you think about the cost of violence and the fragility of sanity.
