Mutilator (2 Blu-Ray) [USA] [Blu-ray]

BY SWORD. BY PICK. BY AXE. BYE BYE. Although the slasher film was in decline by the mid-1980s, there were still some grisly delights to be had... and they don't come much grislier than writer-director Buddy Cooper's sickening stalk-and-slash classic The Mutilator! When Ed receives a message from his father asking him to go and lock up the family's beach condo for the winter, it seems like the perfect excuse for an alcohol-fueled few days away with his friends. After all, his dad has forgiven him for accidentally blowing mom away with a shotgun several years ago... hasn't he? But no sooner are the teens on the island than they find themselves stalked by a figure with an ax (and a hook, and an onboard motor) to grind... Originally titled Fall Break (watch out for the incongruous theme song of the same name!), The Mutilator has earned a reputation among horror fans as one of the 'holy grails' of 80s splatter mayhem due to it's highly inventive (and not to say, decidedly gruesome) kill sequences, courtesy of FX wizard Mark Shostrom (Videodrome , Evil Dead II). Finally making it's long-awaited bow in High-Definition, The Mutilator has returned to terrorize a whole new generation of horror fans
