The Orphan Killer.
A Matt Farnsworth film. I was surprised by this low budget slasher in that it is far more competent than I hoped. The story is basic, brother and sister are orphaned after their parents are murdered. Sister is adopted, brother beats another kids head in with a bat and is forced to wear a mask and endure many years of torture from the nuns. Then he gets an axe and becomes Marcus Miller, The Orphan Killer.
The film is carried by the female lead (Diane Foster) and I was mightily impressed with her efforts (and her bum!) all the way through. The blood flows thick and fast as Marcus throws that axe about with some mean intent!
I believe Matt wants to make a new franchise with this character.. best of luck to him.
Edit; German Blu/DVD Mediabook available from D&T, Official Orphan Killer site sold out of Blu's but have DVD's.
