'Maniac Cop III: Badge of Silence' is a 1993 horror action film, and the second sequel to Maniac Cop, directed by William Lustig and Joel Soisson. The film was originally rated "NC-17", and some extreme violent acts were cut to get an "R" rating.
When a female cop is gunned down and wrongly accused of using excessive force in a hostage rescue attempt, Matt Cordell, the titular Maniac Cop, returns from the dead once more to seek revenge, destroying everything and anyone that stands in his way.
The film was released on VHS on July 7, 1993 by Academy Entertainment in both R-Rated and unrated cuts. In 1999, Platinum Disc released a barebones DVD of the film. Later, on May 25, 2004 the film was re-released onto DVD by First Look Studios in an unrated version. Like the preceding films in the series, the film was criticized by police groups for its portrayal of a police officer as a villain.
