Axeman engages in Mortal Kombat with Joston Theney

Waaaayyyyy back in 2014, before From The Basement took to the mighty Radio NL 610 AM Kamloops airwaves, Jason and Shawn reviewed a little slasher movie called Axeman, AKA Axeman at Cutter's Creek, and interviewed its writer, director and star, Joston Theney. Surprise, Axeman has become a cult classic, and spawned a sequel. However, Joston was never happy with the final cut of his film. Now it's 2021, and he's recut Axeman to the vision he always had in mind. Call it The Theney Cut, and The Dynamic Due put Axeman Redux on the chopping block tonight at 6:05! The Basement Boys also interview Joston about the how and why of his new edit, and discuss the fact he's been able to retain ownership of his films, a rarity in Hollywood. How was he able to do that? Stick with us! And stick around for Mortal Kombat! Or, more accurately, Jason and Shawn's review of the new video-game adaptation. Is it greater than, or less than, the 1995 version?

Blood Widow, Axeman and the Joston Theney interview

Blood Widow? Axeman? Joston Theney? WTF? Relax, Basementites. You haven't been living under a rock. This episode is dedicated to a couple of under-the-radar slasher flicks and the man who directed one of them. Joston Theney directed Axeman, which hit the home market earlier this month. Blood Widow just appeared at Cannes and hits VOD , DVD , and Blu-ray June 3. Jason and Shawn have seen them both, and are ready to put the flicks on the chopping block.

Scream queens galore line up for the Axeman

Horror fans will be able to see some of the genre's most prominent scream queens together in one razor-sharp slasher movie when Axeman hits Canadian and U.S. DVD/VOD markets in May. Tiffany Shepis , Brinke Stevens , Elissa Dowling and Jamie Bernadette are on board for Joston Theney's blood-stained love letter to old-school slashers.
