Welcome to the episode 3 of Bede & Sam Vs. The Video Nasties. A podast on the Bede Vs. The Living Dead network where your hosts Bede Jermyn & Sam Inglis explore all the films that made the U.K. notorious and infamous Video Nasty list.
Now having discussed two separate films from Italian director Joe D'Amato on the previous episodes, your hosts Bede & Sam move onto their first non-D'Amato film for the podcast, which just happens to be their first American film from the DPP lists. For this episode, Bede & Sam look at the 1974 independant horror film Axe (also know as Lisa, Lisa and California Axe Massacre) from writer/director/co-star Frederick R. Friedel.
Highlights include Bede & Sam wondering whether Axe deserved to be on the DPP list, what makes Leslie Lee's performance as "Lisa" interesting, wondering if The Texas Chainsaw Massacre may have inspired the film, the effective supermarket scene, the film's surprising use of humour, the hosts lingering questions about aspects of the story and so much more.
