Okay, by way of confession...I made a booboo. Apparently this is a sequel to "Axeman: Overkill." I was under the impression it was the sequel to another movie. But wait! It kind of is! My mistake is not a major one. More importantly, even as a stand alone film, this is a goodie. The kills, numbering in the dozens, it seems, are all gory and quite imaginative. See someone's balls pulled out his throat! Yes! See a herpes ridden skank deputy as the protagonist! Really! A character driven drama in which Monique Parent turns in a stellar performance, as usual, as the only voice of reason. Today we look at 2023's "Axeman at Cutter's Creek 2," a film made by Joston Theney.
All right...here's the plot...kind of. We'll focus on the best grouping of characters in film history more than a chronological telling of plot devices. Deputy Darlene (Arielle Brachfeld) is banging some hunk until her mom puts an end to it. The lingerie and herpes clad skank of a policewoman is not happy at being interrupted. Also opening this film are a bunch of religious nuts. Of note here is the babe Irma Jean (Ari Hader), who is plotting the murder of her husband (David Gusts) and blaming it on a psycho axeman. Oh yes, a group of thieves looking for money headed by a transvestite psycho named Bird (Christine Madeleine Partamian) and her crew. Her crew? Yep, psycho bitch Shank (Linda S. Wong), Asian babe who has never lost a fight and a half dozen more psychos. Oh, Bird's GF, Sunshine (Jacqui Holland), a bride of Satan who loves to satisfy herself in human blood. I could go on and on...but you are probably confusing this film, by my description, with Jane Austen's "Sense and Sensibility."
Oh! The axemen! Right! Two of them (Michael Wayne Foster and Bryan E. Clark II). They murdered a bunch of nubile babes and hunks in the first films. They even murdered some hot lesbian lovers (Whitney Nielsen and Kailena Mai). These two dead lesbian babes...they're back! You'll see. Thanks to Marla (Parent) we are let in on exactly what is going on here. What is going on? Small town secrets that should stay secret, really. Machetes, chainsaws, fists, razors, axes, and guns will murder so many in the most colorful ways. We cheer for Marla...gotta love a mom who is a ton more seductive than her daughter. Okay...no more. Wait...one more thing! Catfights! The best catfights in any film of the 21st century!
Will Monique Parent survive to the end credits...or will anyone, for that matter? What axe to grind is possessed by the axemen as they axe and shred nubile babes, hunks, and weird beings of alternate lifestyles? Will Shank, the hot Asian babe, end up losing a fight for the first time? See "Axeman at Cutter's Creek 2" as I endeavor to go find the first film in this series.
