The 1982 cult classic is headed for Blu-ray in May.

In an early announcement to retailers, Vinegar Syndrome says 'Madman' will hit Blu-ray on May 12.

Years ago, Madman Marz violently murdered his family only to escape into the woods before his execution could be completed. Legend has it that anyone who calls his name can summon him back to continue his bloody rampage. But teenage Richie, away at camp, doesn't believe the old legend and calls his name. As night falls, strange things start happening at at camp and soon Madman Marz is back, axe in hand, to finish the killing spree he started decades ago. One of the true classics of 80's slasher cinema, Vinegar Syndrome proudly presents MADMAN on Blu-ray for the first time, newly restored in 4K from the camera negative!

Specs have yet to be revealed, but supplements include: The Legend Lives: 91 minute documentary on the Making of Madman; Cast/Crew interviews; TV Spots and Original Theatrical Trailer; and Commentary track by The Hysteria Continues!

Suggested list price for the Blu-ray is $24.98.
