Where to Watch Edge of the Axe
- Kevin WardJuly 4, 2025Hey, I got something. A 1, 2, 3, 4… 🎶Maria, Maria🎶 🎶You were so sweet-a🎶 🎶I’d like to play, play, play🎶 🎶With your tetas🎶 -Impromptu song by Richard Simmons (Yes, they named a character Richard Simmons in 1988) This was solid slasher with a bunch of sus characters that tries to keep you guessing til the end. I love portrayals or advanced tech in low budget films, and this one doesn’t disappoint. The tonal clashing of the music selections was awesome, particularly when the final shot and stinger is followed with a twangy country song. The killer’s mask was like a combo of Michael Myers and Jason, but you know, that kind of works. Entertaining watch and a wild ending.
