I Spit on Your Grave (2010)

It's quite a departure from the original. Much more inventive and creative ways to off her victimizers. I actually felt faint and light-headed while watching one of the scenes involving the hedge trimmers. Had to go lie down.

I haven't seen the remake and, to be honest, I don't have any real desire to (the same can be said for the remake of The Last House on the Left).

Nice to see that it's been done justice though.

I didn't know it was a remake!

I've been told under no circumstances should I watch it; according to the person who warned me, it's more horrifying than Irreversible (2002) and Deliverance (1972).

I've chosen never to see it!

I've never seen Deliverance but on the scale of rape-revenge movies the original 1978 picture was quite something. Not because it was any good as a film but simply because of the extreme and visceral imagery that is employed for the scenes of violation. For this year's DVD release of the original the BBFC demanded nearly three minutes of cuts to this film - no mean feat, considering some of the material they've passed uncut over the past couple of years.

I'd try the uncut (i.e. not the cut US or UK versions) version of Death Wish II (incidentally, Michael Winner, the director of Death Wish II visited my local pub and later took considerable delight in slagging it off in a TV programme) then I suggest you'll do OK with the remake of I Spit On Your Grave. The UK DVD release of Death Wish II still suffers nearly four minutes of cuts and I can't see the number of cuts sharply lessening any time soon because the rape scenes are so luridly exploitative.

If you want a litmus test try the uncut edition of Death Wish II and come back to me afterwards.

I love "Spit of your Grave" it is one of the best films ever. The main character is so pretty and I love how she kills the rapists, especially the one she chops up at the end with "suck it b***h". The other best scenes are when she chops the guy cock off and hangs the ret*d. I used to love the Death Wish films, but I wouldnt want to see the uncut versions with more sexual assault. I prefer the scenes where he shoots muggers, especially with his naughty smile.

thanks for the recomendation buddy. lets face it the original was horrible trash, even tho i do like it.
