BREAKING NEWS: BLOODY DIGUSTING | Serial Killer Horror-Comedy "Frankie Maniac Woman" hits theaters in April

Beauty is only skin deep — and Frankie, Maniac Woman wants to see what’s inside.



Balancing gory violence, dark humor, and social commentary, the serial killer slasher will be released in select theaters on April 24.


Battling against the legacy of childhood trauma, internalized misogyny, and the image-obsessed fat shaming of the LA music business, aspiring singer-songwriter Frankie Ramirez finally snaps — with bloody results.


Pierre Tsigaridis (Two Witches, Traumatika) directs from a script he co-wrote with Two Witches actress Dina Silva who is also an executive producer alongside Maxime Rancon (Two Witches, Traumatika


Silva also stars alongside Stefanie Estes (Soft and Quiet), Tim Fox (Two Witches), Jordan Debarge (“Squid Game: The Challenge”), Rocío de la GranaDaniella Mendoza, and Tsigaridis. 


“With Frankie, Maniac Woman, we set out to create a serial killer story that is chaotic and intimate, violent and vulnerable — a slasher with a soul,” said Tsigaridis. “I wanted to make the kind of slasher that feels dangerous again, where comedy and brutality live in the same breath.


“At its core, the film is a raw, unapologetic exploration of what happens when someone is pushed past their breaking point, using Frankie’s descent as both a character study and a reflection of the pressures we put on women in image-driven industries.”


“Frankie’s story speaks to the pressure women face to fit impossible standards,” Silva adds. “She is the most personal character I’ve ever played—she represents every version of myself that felt unseen, judged, or pushed aside.


“As a comedic actor, it was really exciting to explore how humor and darkness can coexist, and to bring that duality into the character. Telling her story was both cathartic and terrifying. I didn’t want to hold anything back, and I hope audiences feel that authenticity and intensity.”


Frankie, Maniac Woman premiered at last year’s Grimmfest, where Silva won Best Actress.
