Viewing Notes
Film 4 of BTSNAT was a pick from our gracious host Brian (@BTSJunkie). He’s a huge fan of the rape/revenge genre and this is actually one of the classics in that area, though nobody had seen it. Made after I Spit on Your Grave and actually a better overall movie, IMHO, this film has the lead returning to her hometown. When she does, like a pack of testosterone crazy maniacs, every man hits on her within minutes of talking to her. After a group of them get drunk one late night they go to her house, repeatedly rape her and then kill her parents when they show up back home. It’s an ugly thing and from there it’s up to her to take revenge on the men who wronged her, even though everyone thinks she’s catatonic at an asylum.
The revenge scenes are gruesome and bloody and I did cheer for her. This is a rough movie, but like I said, it’s better than ISOYG, which I do also happen to like. A good choice for this type of film festival and a great pick to follow SCIENCE CRAZED since it picked up the pace.
