The Invisible Maniac (1990)

The Invisible Maniac (1990)

The Invisible Maniac is a 1990 film directed by Adam Rifkin. It stars Noel Peters and Shannon Wilsey.^[1] At one point, the titular maniac kills a man with a submarine sandwich.

The film is primarily regarded for being one of the few nonpornographic works starring lead actress Shannon Wilsey (who later took on the name Savannah). The film's reception had a profoundly negative impact on the actress, despite the fact that it was well received for its comedic merits, she felt mortified about her performance. In an interview for the E! True Hollywood Story documentary on the life of the actress, former boyfriend Billy Sheehanrecounted how Wilsey was utterly humiliated during the film's premiere. Whenever the audience would laugh at one of her lines she could not differentiate whether they were laughing at her person or the character. The experience forever marred Wilsey on a personal level and she soon afterwards resigned herself to pursue a career exclusively in the adult entertainment industry. She rose to the highest auspices of the adult entertainment world becoming the indisputable "porn queen", though her life was forever fraught with personal disappointments and drug addiction which eventually culminated in her suicide in 1994. She was 23 years, 9 months and 2 days at the time of her death.

A budding young scientist lad is caught by his mom checking out the lady across the way with his telescope, whereupon she lectures him on the evils of women. Twenty years later and all grown up, the scientist announces his theories of invisibility, and his colleagues laugh, to which he responds by killing four of them. He escapes from the loony bin and gets a job teaching summer school physics at a high school. The students decide to tease him about the same time as he perfects his invisible juice, and he goes on a spree of vengeance.
