Tattoo is a 1981 thriller film directed by Bob Brooks, and stars Bruce Dern and Maud Adams. The film was nominated for a Razzie Awards for Worst Actor for Dern, and was the last film that Joseph E. Levine ever produced.
Karl Kinsky (Dern) is a mentally ill tattoo artist who is hired to create temporary tattoos for some models. He becomes obsessed with one of them, Maddy (Adams), whom he kidnaps to force her to wear "his mark." He keeps her captive as he creates his masterpiece on her body. Throughout the ensuing captivity, Maddy tries several times to escape, but her attempts are continually thwarted by Kinsky.
