Edge of the Axe (1988) coming from Arrow

[SpiderBaby]

Anybody that wants the slip should probably order now. Only 500 for Diabolik.


I repeat, as there will be people that missed out:

Order now!

Oh man... as a rule of thumb I generally much prefer using Amazon for my pre-orders as their cancellation policy is so simple that I have a ton of flexibility all the way up to release, but man, that Slip art is sweet looking! I may have to pick this one up from Diabolik.

Yes, will probably sellout soon.

Hopefully this slip will be the better Arrow quality Slip and not that flimsy cheap thin version like they used on the limited Scared Stiff edition. That one was kind of disappointing.

[Show spoiler]Bodies are found/or we cut away from the kill. I don't recall anything raising the bodycount through exposition.

Pre-ordered from Diabolik after reading about the 500 count limit on the slip. Amazon hasn't been all that great with their discounts for the last few Arrow releases I've picked up from them and so the cost difference would be negligible assuming the same pattern holds and then I'd be without the slip as well. With that said I fully expect that now that I have locked in my pre-order the same thing will happen which happened to me on the "The Hills Have Eyes" release in that Amazon will likely mark this down to something like $19 and I'll end up paying close to $10 more than I needed to. At least I'll get it around mid January now instead of late January though.

I've never seen this one but given the constant ongoing comments asking for it over the last few months I'm going to assume this is something I'll enjoy. I enjoy Black Candles and so this seems like a safe buy.

I order all of my Arrow releases from Diabolik, so it was an honor and a pleasure to uphold that tradition with this limited slipcover edition of Edge of the Axe.

Diabolik is just beginning to dip their toes into the exclusive slipcover game; I don't know if they're motivated enough to come up with Vinegar Syndrome-style slips yet. But, yeah, that slip was flimsy as heck. Almost paper-like. I preorder most Arrow titles from them anyway so I'll get the slip. It's nice, actually.

Ordered.

Ordered

Crazy under-seen slasher. Arrow. Exclusive slipcover. Say no more.

Pre-ordered.

[GODHOOD]

Ordered to get the slipcover other than that I've never heard of the film, but I did check out the trailer and it looks good.

So far I've seen 4 Larraz films and really enjoyed them (Vampyres, Whirlpool, Coming of Sin, and Symptoms) - I'm definitely a fan now.

Haven't see this one yet but very much looking forward to it - for the 4 films I've seen Larraz has his own pacing which isn't fast paced, but I like it because it allows the atmosphere to dominate the films. He had a great eye for cinematography, at least in his '70's films.

What the hell, ordered...looks fun enough, and with confirmation that there's a reversible sleeve featuring original poster art, that slipcover is money.

This one is being coordinated with Arrow (500 copies to the UK/500 copies to Diabolik), so maybe Arrow is printing the slips themselves?

I ordered this too, grabbed it from the Arrow store. It continues to baffle me how it’s almost always significantly cheaper to have stuff imported from the UK to Canada than from the US. So weird.

So there's 1,000 slips total. Both the Diabolik/Arrow sites say 500 slips. I wish both sites indicate the other site is selling 500 as well

[PowellPressburger]

Arrow UK selling 500

DiabolikDVD US Selling 500

I believe that depending on where you live in the world; order accordingly.

[Talyn]

Put my order in! Cannot wait! Looking forward to this!

[Dr. Phibes]

I was about to order from the Arrow site, but shipping was £10.50. Probably just going to get the regular release instead. Really excited for another Arrow slasher release either way.
