i do think the duck sounds amusing, but the ott violence/gore made up for it

I totally agree with you on this - first time I saw it I found the quacking very sinister and creepy.

Not sinister or creepy, just odd.

Ripper is far superior to Maniac, a film i always rank alongside it for some reason.
