Ugh, yeah. That post is almost a year old. Hopefully come July 30th they will announce it for October. This is most wanted title of the year by far.

HorrorBlu · 07-10-2019, 06:42 PM

Yeah, it has been a long wait!

At least it gave me time to get rid of my Edge Of The Axe and Savage Lust VHS tapes for a healthy profit. It will more than pay for my set.

Well they said it was going to get released this year, so it's winding down to the end of the year (in terms of announcements).

It's got to be October.

I've heard of this. May be worth a look.

I don't recall Edge of the Axe being gory. Bloody, yes. I can say for certain is isn't a splatter flick and its much more of an atmospheric slasher.

But he does slash with an axe and the mask is cool (admittedly it's basically a Michael Myers mask)

It's solid, def worth checking out if you're an 80s slasher fan/collector.

I should’ve said bloody since that’s what I meant

. Sounds like something I might enjoy as a blind buy.

About freaking time.... They took forever to release this one.

When it comes to late-80s slashers, how does this compare to the likes of Hide and Go Shriek and Intruder?

Stage Fright is the gold standard for me.

dallywhitty · 11-01-2019, 03:14 PM

That artwork is absolutely delicious.

The exclusive DiabolikDVD slipcover is limited to 500 only so I preordered that with the quickness.
