a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

2023. Notorious serial killer Karl the Butcher gets released from hell so he can join forces with fellow infamous psycho Axe and take on a grotesque array of brutal gangs in a violent post-apocalyptic society.Writers/directors Andreas Schnaas and Timo Rose really go for broke with this enjoyably loopy piece of blithely demented splatter trash: We've got tacky dimestore CGI (not so) special effects, some tasty gratuitous distaff nudity, hammy overacting (Eileen Daily cops the grand eye-rolling histrionic booby prize here with her scenery-munching portrayal of the ruthless Queen Scara), ineptly staged fights, amusing touches of cheerfully crass humor (a group of female warriors have a gross penchant for drinking semen from their male captors!), and an enormous body count. Naturally, Schnaas and Rose pour on the excessive over-the-top gore with infectious glee complete with decapitations, dismemberment, throat slashings, castration, and blood spurting everywhere with pleasing regularity. A total wacky hoot.

The year is 2029 following an unnamed apocalypse. The world is divided into groups and Axe is butchering people at a rate that will surpass Karl. Karl comes back from hell to kill the Axe because...okay I don't think too hard on that. The film is better than 1 and 3. It has a camp and grindhouse style.This fourth film is in English rather than German with subtitles. I guess Karl learned English while in hell.Guide: F-word and nudity

Karl the Butcher vs Axe (2010) * (out of 4) The fourth film in the series has Karl The Butcher (Andreas Schnaas) going up against a female serial killer (Timo Rose).KARL THE BUTCHER VS AXE was the fourth film in the VIOLENT $HIT series. I'm going to guess if you liked the first three then you'll probably enjoy this one but, to be honest, I only somewhat liked the second and the rest I really didn't care for. This film here appears to have hard a somewhat larger budget, although shooting digital at least gave the picture a better, more professional look.There's really nothing "good" going on here outside of the gore but even this has been somewhat pulled back from the previous three films. Yes, there are all sorts of be-headings and various forms of violence but it just doesn't have the same punch. It's at least mildly entertaining and there's no question that the gore is the only real thing going here. The Karl character isn't all that interesting here and his battle with Axe just isn't overly exciting to say the least.The biggest problem I had with this film is the fact that there really wasn't much energy. The film doesn't really hold your attention and after a while you just get bored with everything going on.

It is impossible to describe how pathetically inept this movie is.It begins with what is presumably an attempt at a joke.. a carved pumpkin appears accompanied by the theme from Halloween. Then a title card appears reading sorry, wrong movie. Whatever you think about Halloween you will be wishing you were watching that instead. Magdalena Kelly is the only person of any value in this tripe. She is pretty, has some modicum of talent and performs well in her fight scenes.What she's doing in this crap is a mystery. I suspect that Timo Rose looked up the definition of talent in a dictionary and decided he wanted nothing to do with it.Various members of Gang Loco are played by people who were cast simply because they look weird. There involvement in the plot consists of wandering about with plastic machine guns before being summarily killed.The Mock-Wai tribe is a gang (3) of ageing pornstars played by Eileen Daly, Eleanor James and Marysia Kay. For some inexplicable reason they drain captive men of their semen. Eileen then drinks it, in a grotesque and badly acted scene. It is impossible to choose which of the three females is the least talented but the three worst performances ever committed to celluloid belong to them.There is no plot of any kind. The action scenes are pathetically amateurish. The gore, effects and make-up is laughable. Avoid.
