THE DRILLER KILLER (1979)


wiki:
The Driller Killer is a 1979 horror film directed by and starring Abel Ferrara. It was on a list of banned so-called "video nasties" in the United Kingdom. The film was banned in the UK from 1984 (due to new censorship laws) until 1999, when a version omitting 54 secs from the head-drilling scene and 2 earlier murders was approved for an 18 (years of age) certificate. The full uncut version was finally passed by the BBFC in November 2002. On 10 June 2010 it was re-released as video on demand (VOD).

imdb:
Reno is an artist struggling to survive in NYC. He draws inspiration from scenes of daily street life and occasional random violence. Under pressure to finish his oft-delayed grand masterpiece, his psychotic alter-ego takes over and he begins killing random vagrants to boost his creativity, not quite realizing that it is happening in reality. When an art dealer grimly rejects Reno's finished masterpiece, Reno's mental condition quickly deteriorates.
