Have we discussed favourite weapons on Cult Labs before?
Is it too ghoulish?
Hatchet 2 is one of those particularly honest horror films that wears its slashed up heart on its blood soaked sleeve by being named after it's weapon of choice. The Toolbox Murders and the Texas Chainsaw Massacre help audiences in a similar fashion by loudly trailing the violence captured in their running times with a lurid title.
Which leads me to ask in inevitable question... Which rusty garden implement, shiny steel blade or petrol driven landscape gardening tool do you prefer a masked or mutated horror fiend to wield?
A hatchet yesterday
Personally, I like Cropsy's shears in The Burning. They offer a versitile range of dismemberment options, allowing for the deranged killer to stab and disembowel whilst giving room for more creative and delicate carnage, such as the snipping off of fingertips.
Over to you...
