Axe (film): Difference between revisions

* [[Dead Man's Chest]]: Lisa stuffs the body of her first kill into a trunk. While trying to move it, Billy comes along and offers his assistance. After noticing the trail of blood, he opens the chest to discover its grisley contents. Lisa innocently tells him that "the other one" did it.

* [[Double Entendre]]: While holding a fruit, one of the thugs walks up to a grocery store clerk:

* [[For the Evulz]]: The three criminals, in the beginning, appear to be taking revenge on someone who double-crossed them. Later, though, it becomes apparent that their horrible deeds are done for kicks.

* [[Good Smoking, Evil Smoking]]: Lomax, one of the thugs, is always smoking cigars. Just to show how evil he is, these cigars are used for everything from stuffing into a victim's mouth to holding it under the face of a man in a vegetative state to see if he reacts.

* [[Gorn]]: No doubt this was a major reason why this movie was classified as a [[Video Nasty]]. Among other things, there's a shot of a man's neck being sliced open with a straight razor that lingers for a rather long time.

* [[Gory Discretion Shot]]: Lisa's <s>first</s> only kill with an [[Title Drop|axe]]. Blood splatters on the television and on her invalid grandfather.

* [[Interrupted Suicide]]: When the gangsters take over her country home, Lisa [[Driven to Suicide|very nearly slashes her wrists with a straight razor]]. She stops when Billy, the nicer of the three, knocks on the door to get her attention.

* [[Nerf Arm]]: During the opening scene, one thug beats a man to death using a doll. Afterwards, the shot of the doll's head--fallen off, looking up from the blue-green carpet, and splattered with blood--is ''just plain sinister''.

* [[Rape and Revenge]]

* [[We Wait]]: The opening scene shows the three criminals in an apartment waiting for some guy named Aubrey. They get bored.

* [[William Telling]]: Early in the movie, two of the gangsters do this to an unfortunate clerk at a grocery store, after forcing her to remove her shirt at gunpoint. The apple won't stay on her head, but they take a shot anyway. Fortunately for the poor girl, they end up shooting a bottle of ketchup instead. [[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?|Then they pour a bottle of cola over her cleavage]].
