Description:
Gothic nightmares collide with gritty realism in this 'stylish horror thriller [that] pulls you in and makes you pay attention' (Los Angeles Times)!

But once she opens the cover, its eerie tale of obsessive love comes to life,catapulting a disfigured, scalpel-wielding killer from the world of fiction onto the streets of Hollywood with one demented goal: to win Virginia's love, one murder at a time!

This is one of my favorite horror films. Released in 1996 this story is about a young woman who finds an obscure author's books and while she's reading one the murders described seem to be happening int the real world. I Madman is creepy and atmospheric and poetic ... Read More
Rating: - Come Back To Us, Jenny Wright!...
When I saw NEAR DARK, I remember being mesmerized by this young, talented, and yes, beautiful actress named Jenny Wright. Years later, I found her again in this film, I, MADMAN. She is again fantastic, as once again her character's coy, gentle nature shines through the dark horror around her. Ms. Wright plays Virginia, a woman obsessed w/ a gruesome novel about a murderous maniac who will stop at nothing, including brutal homicide and self-mutilation, to prove his "love" for the woman of his desire. ...

Rating:  - I mad woman like I, Madman.
This is interesting film that's been tip-off to me. I thought Canadian genre director Tibor Takacs, (more well-known for The Gate ), done a great job with this film. I, MADMAN is a loving salute to the days when movie monsters had hearts. For those who don't know this film is about a second-hand bookstore clerk Virginia Clayton becomes absorbed in the book `I, Madman' by Malcolm Brand. In the book the deranged, deformed Dr Kessler is obsessed with beautiful actress Anna Templar and kills victims, sewing ... Read More
Rating: - 4.5 Stars. The Neverending Horror Story. I, Madman knows how to set the mood.
I, Madman has great mood and atmosphere and is an all around fun horror film. With 24 out of 26 reviews at this time being 5 or 4 stars, 12 each, I don't feel this is underrated as far as who views it, those who see it like it or love it. However I don't think enough people, including myself (until recently) saw this film, this is definitely a hidden gem. I highly recommend this film to horror fans looking a good fun time.
So, back to the film and the great mood and atmosphere. Virginia ... Read More
Rating: - Love makes us do foolish things, Virginia
Bookstore clerk and aspiring actress, Virginia (Jenny Wright), has a taste for lurid pulp horror. Her latest bizarre book find, entitled "Much of Madness, More of Sin," spins the tale of an insane doctor and his mutant jackal boy creation. Virginia is so taken with the book that she sets out to find author Dr. Malcolm Brand's only other published work, a book called "I, Madman." Instead, the book finds her.
Waiting for just the right reader to release him from the pages of his 30-year-old book, ... Read More
