Well, look at that. I was craving something, anything, from the Maniac remake - which is debuting at Cannes this week - and, tonight, we have a teaser trailer cut for the fest.

Franck Khalfoun directed, reuniting with his P2 producers Alex Aja and Gregory Levasseur - who both share screenwriting duties on this redo of William Lustig's '80s film.
