I’m not going to lie, the Axeman franchise is starting to get a bit confusing… the original film was released in 2013 and a sequel arrived a few years later under the title Axeman 2: Overkill. Then in 2020 the original film was recut and re-edited, making it – as filmmaker Joston Theney stated – a more straightforward horror with a leaner edit, new footage and new music. Originally set to be released under the title Axeman: Redux, instead it was released as Axemen at Cutter’s Creek.
Now comes Axeman at Cutter’s Creek 2 which, if you believe IMDb is a sequel to Axeman 2 and Not Axemen at Cutter’s Creek – though the press materials claims otherwise, stating...

Writer/Director: Robert Beaucage
Cast: Sarah Livingston Evans, Jared Edwards, Anna-Marie Wayne, Nancy P. Corbo, Edward Gusts
Chaos Productions
"Spike" starts, as horror films often do, with a car crash along a rural road at night. But this particular car crash is no accident. Two couples traveling to an unnamed destination are halted by what looks like a steam punk accessory. No one is seriously injured in the accident, but after the lone dude goes to check out the tire damage, an unseen assailant attacks him. The gothic spikes he found in the tire are now sticking out of his throat and he's bleeding out fast. The three remaining girls go into panic mode and try to figure out how to save their friend and just what the hell is going on.
The situation escalates quickly. Naturally, there is no cell phone reception and the Evil Dead cam is stalking them.

The amount of heart that goes into these independent features makes me wish I could say something better about Junction. The producers spend many meticulous moments charting every inch of the shoot. The production assistants do all that they’re told in hopes they can gel the old resume. The actors do their best on a budget and think that this film might launch their otherwise non-blossoming careers. The writer put their soul onto the pages of the script. The director spends hours planning every single shot of the film to make the final text look good enough for the indie circuits. And I spent 90 minutes wondering what all of these people were thinking.
Conjunction junction, what’s your function? I couldn’t get the grade school song out of my head. What was Junction’s function? There wasn’t one. The story was so hard and the characters so...

April Wade & Lira Kellerman in 'Junction'
The dynamics of inter-family relationships can be as complicated as Stephen Hawking’s black hole theories or as annoying as an MTV-based reality show. Visiting certain relatives can sometimes be a Hanna-Barbera cartoon without a laugh track and wacky birds used as vacuums. Wilma is drunk again, hide the turtle dishwasher. Family time can be downright rough, especially during Thanksgiving, which in Neal Fradsham’s Junction, is all too applicable.
Wrought with psychosis, drugs and mommy issues, the story revolves around Michaela (April Wade), an aspiring photo-journalist complete with alcoholic mother (Cindy Hogan), her Bff goldfish Dorothy (yes, like a certain red furry monster in New York) and an ailing father in prison. But this isn’t Sesame Street, it’s a creepy mind-bender with tones of a classic psychological thriller. Haunting, Junction plays out like a Shakespearean play filled with family...

One hell of a mind bend is Junction. Driven by an aching curiosity, aspiring photojournalist Michaela (April Wade) embarks on a tumultuous journey to locate two siblings that, until recent revelations, she was completely unaware of. Michaela manages to track her siblings down, but there’s a taboo secret that the trio are oblivious to, and as Michaela assembles this shattered picture frame, the photograph within takes to grotesque mutations that none of the three are prepared to confront.
April Wade clearly grasps the scope of this script (which she helped pen), but either out of modesty, or unawareness, seems to play down the intensity of the film. “We set out to make a movie that was about family, dysfunction and identity. The plot grew around these themes and, while in retrospect, there are many things I would have done differently, the original intention still remains. In essence, it is...

It’s not often I’ll review and Indy film, but then it isn’t often I’m contacted by a talented young Actress and Producer from America and air-mailed a copy of one of her own masterpieces.
April Wade (The Thing in The Corner, Creepshow III, Women on Top Productions) stars in and produces Junction, a thriller described as “Donny Darko” meets “Ghost World” and directed by Neal Fradsham.
Junction speaks to the Y-Generation who has survived the single-family phenomenon and the battle with an ever-growing feeling of medicated isolation. Silhouetted against a world of expanding globalization and shrinking personal human interaction, Michaela, searches for self-actualization - and her splintered family. Do you want to face the truth? Or, do you want to destroy it?
The formula for Junction seemed perfect on paper I’m sure, the story is without a doubt original in its subjects – voyeurism, incest and...
