This is only the second film, after Unrated: The Movie, that i've seen from Timo Rose and Andreas Schnaas. And again it's very amateuristic basing on the paper mache mask of Karl the Butcher, the bad visual and audio quality, the poor script and the even poorer acting.
2023 and Karl The Butcher Jr Returns from hell after 25 years, and is on a mission to kill a new butcher, Axe. But the world he returns to is in devastation, civilization is split between gangs, including the Gang loco, The Others, the tyrant Queen Scara, The Black Monks, and of course, the nomads Axe and his sister Vendetta whose family history is unknown. An ultra-violent journey in a wasteland awaits...
In the beginning i thought it was gonna be the same kind of thing as Freddy vs. Jason. Two horror-legends fighting each other. Oh, well.... Horror-legends?... Karl the Butcher only featured in the 3 earlier Violent Shit films and Axe makes his debut in the film. But later it turns out that they're not going to fight each other but the two of them are gonna fight the other scum in the world. Whatever... Both of them don't look very frightning. Karl the Butcher mainly just walks around in the woods like 1 of the 7 dwarfs. For some way he kinda reminded me of the gorilla with the diving helmet from Robot Monster. Axe looks a bit more brutal though.
I know that the Violent Shit movies are made for the gore. That's why I decided to watch this movie. But I have to say that I was a little bit disappointed by the gore. The film focuses to much on the stupid plot about some groups/gangs fighting with each other in a post-apocalyptic world. That leaves us with to much bad actors and script writing and to little of Karl and Axe slicing and dicing. Luckily the gore picks up at the end battle of the film which lasts like 20 minutes or so.
Karl the Butcher vs Axe is everything but a good movie. Still Karl and Axe are entertaining enough to keep me focused throughout the movie.
