Product Description

Little Lisa Took an Axe and Gave Her Houseguests 40 Whacks... After terrorizing a convenience store salesgirl with tomatoes, three lowlifes on a crime spree hide out at an isolated farmhouse occupied only by teenage Lisa and her pathetically paralyzed grandpa. Bad move, guys, for while Lisa looks innocent enough, she's actually a ticking-time-bomb-of-psychotic-aggression who spends her days killing chickens, feeding raw eggs to her grandad, staring blankly into space, and hallucinating blood on a mirror. So when the three numbskulls add Lisa to their list of people to abuse, she promptly puts an end to their antisocial activities with the help of her two best friends, a straight-edge razor and her handy Axe. Directed by Frederick R Friedel and produced by the legendary Harry Novak, AXE is a dark, morbid, surprisingly disturbing foray into the underbelly of rural gothic horror. One of the original video nasties previously banned in the UK.

3.0 out of 5 starsBrief but memorable
By Now Zoltan on 2 Jun. 2010
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
Axe is OK. It's no lost masterpiece but nor is a forgettable no budget rip off. This is mainly down to the brief running time of barely an hour and the enigmatic atmosphere the director creates. Gone is the usual pointless padding that can turn a modest horror effort into an endurance test. That said the story is still a little thin, basically a Last House on the Left riff with the twist of a mysterious, possibly psychotic, little girl lying in wait for the hoodlums - and just what is it with her catatonic grandfather? I wish there were more short sharp little films like this - as Val Lewton proved time and again, you don't need a long running time to do the business.
Get this for under a fiver and you'll be happy.

5.0 out of 5 starsLisa! Lisa!
By Catherine on 7 Oct. 2010
Format: DVD
I have recently watched this DVD and enjoyed it. I think it might have benefited from a bit more depth, but that would have resulted in a longer film and it may have lost its appeal then. The men who trespass into Lisa's life are more than mere bullies, they are violent men who have previously murdered and terrorised a stores assistant. What Lisa administers then is a bit of poetic justice. They get what they deserve, it sounds harsh, but this is the message that rings out to me watching the film. We only see a small example of what these men are capable of, and Lisa all alone looking after grandfather who is paralysed, has to defend herself. It is not as sadistic as some films out there, but has been branded a video nasty and was apparently banned in the UK although I remember seeing it in the cinema. So it has with stood the age of time, and its memory lingered with me after all these years. Yes it is gory enough for its time and disturbing, but I doubt it will give you nightmares. It is fairly typical of the era and it certainly left me with a lasting impression. A welcome addition to my collection, well worth the money.

3.0 out of 5 starsVery dark horror but not a classic
By Colonel Decker on 26 Jun. 2012
Format: DVD
Axe, Lisa Lisa known in some parts is a good little gem of a film. Trouble is it could have been
one of the greats, but sadly fails.

Without giving too much of the plot away, Axe revolves around a group of hitmen who are on the run and find a place
to stay out in the countryside. There they find a young girl called Lisa who is looking after her severly paralysed grandfather.

There is a lot of attention to detail and the movie has such a dread atmosphere that Axe is not the type of movie you will want to revisit time and again. It has the ability to bring you the viewer down.

Not sure why the movie was banned, it isn't at all that bad gore wise.

The acting is ok, but the editing is a bit off which is a shame becuase there are some wonderful thoughful scenes right from the director.

Axe is not a classic, but it is an oddity. Worth a check if you like your 70s movies.

3.0 out of 5 starsA real oddity
By Mr. Jonathon T. Beckett on 10 Sept. 2009
Format: DVD Verified Purchase
Three hitmen(?) after killing a man in his house, and terrorizing a girl at a grocery store, decide to look for a place to hide out. The trio comprises of psychotic Steele, violent Lomax and naiive Billy. They pick a house inhabited by fragile Lisa, who is teetering on the edge of a nervous breakdown, and also looks after her parylised Grandfather, feeding him raw eggs in between spells of violent hallucinations. They make a big mistake invading this fragile world, as soon Lisa's disturbing visions become a reality
A real curio, this film is impossible to criticize, as it just rolls on relentlessly, giving no explanations for the main protagonists motivations or actions, instead it offers up a disturbing little horror, that although not overly gory, does offer up a couple of memorable and disturbing scenes. The acting is pretty bad, apart from Leslie Lee who conveys adeptly the extreme vulnerability of Lisa.
Being of such a low budget, the film has poor picture quality, coming across as someones twisted home video, and the sound quality is equally poor. However, it does manage to get under the skin, and for a film with no plot to speak of, or sparkling dialogue, it did engage his viewer at least for its full duration.
Impossible to dislike, and well worth an hour of your time. 3 out of 5

3.0 out of 5 starsAt last not so total terror!
By L.J.F.64 on 22 Feb. 2015
Format: DVD
A gang of 3 criminals kill a guy and terrorise a shop worker before hiding out in a rural farmhouse with a young woman Lisa and her invalid grandfather. 2 of the gang threaten and attack Lisa with deadly consequences.

Axe is a low budget horror from 1977 but is a surprising film in a couple of respects. The film has a tense and uneasy atmosphere throughout, you never really know what Lisa is thinking or capable of, her actions and blank expression are striking. Director Frederick R Friedel who clearly didn't have a lot of resources at his disposal makes this low budget movie look and feel well made. The 4 main actors also give decent turns one wouldn't expect from such a film. Banned as a video nasty in the early eighties you wonder why, yes there is a fair amount of blood but the viewer doesn't actually see much violence most of it is done just out of shot. The constant downbeat atmosphere is hard work though meaning even at 68 mins you do start to stare at the clock, the ending also seemed a little rushed which is also a problem although maybe the production ran out of money and had to end it quickly.

A surprisingly watchable entry on the list, and apart from a couple of points I would have given a higher rating.
