Ax 'Em

A weekend retreat at a remote cabin in the woods for a group of childhood pals turns into a terrifying fight for survival, as a former friend whose family was killed years earlier comes along looking for revenge.

Directed by Michael Mfume, Ax 'Em leans on a strong ensemble — Michael Mfume, Sandra Pulley, Joe Clair — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about horror titles of 1992.
