The enchanted lives of a couple in a secluded forest are brutally shattered by a nightmarish hippie cult and their demon-biker henchmen, propelling a man into a spiraling, surreal rampage of vengeance.
Taking place in 1983, Red is a lumberjack who lives in a secluded cabin in the woods. His artist girlfriend Mandy spends her days reading fantasy paperbacks. Then one day, she catches the eye of a crazed cult leader, who conjures a group of motorcycle-riding demons to kidnap her. Red, armed with a crossbow and custom Axe, stops at nothing to get her back, leaving a bloody, brutal pile of bodies in his wake.Written by

This really is not for everyone and that is just fine.
Also story wasnt anything new or special, just typical revenge story.
Really liked how this looked, sounded and felt.
Visuals and colours are just outstanding and that was something that hooked me from the start, really trippy stuff in a good way.
Music and sounds were pushing this dark overall sinister feel and worked perfectly.
And also Nick have us great performance near insanity.
