I Spit On Your Grave!

Did you ever see something so disturbing that you just couldn't look away? Sure, you didn't! We've all done it, slowed down at the car crash just to take a peek, nothing to be ashamed of, it's all part of being human. Well, if you're unashamed of your voyeuristic tendencies, then I've got a movie for you! It's called I Spit On Your Grave and it's been called the 'first feminist horror movie'.



The story in I Spit On Your Grave is a pretty simple and recognizable one, it's a revenge flick not too unlike Death Wish, but this is a much more gritty and exploitationist movie than Death Wish! I Spit On Your Grave is the story of a young female writer who hires a cabin to be alone and work on her novel. Now, a red flag should've come up when the cabin she rented is in "Deliverance County", but somehow she doesn't think that way. Well, when four local boys spot her, the trouble begins!

I Spit On Your Grave is NOT for the squeamish, it features not one but TWO of the most brutal rape scenes ever filmed, and it's a little hard to sit through, but remember the law of the movies, the revenge must be equal to, if not greater than, the crime perpetrated! And that law is enforced in spades in this movie, with four of the most heinous man killings on film too! But, did they deserve it? You betcha!! And, no matter what gender you are, it's always a good feeling to see the bad guy get what's coming to him, isn't it?!



I give I Spit On Your Grave three and a half, semi-limp cigars, and if you see this, you'll understand my tentativeness! So, until next time, when I'll reveal that my family is not only from the south, but has actually squealed not unlike a pig, remember that the best movies are bad movies!
