General rant about 3 movies

Horror
First and foremost I must mention that during the spring, a group of friends and myself rented a series of horror films. The idea was born after the remake of the last House on the Left premiered. Instead of watching a crappy remake, we wanted to see the original and so I rented the 1972 version.
This movie was greatly disappointing. I had such high hopes thinking that the original would deliver powerful suspense, however fell flat on its boring ass face. Although I must admit, when the parents do take vengeance on the people who hurt their daughter was gruesome. At least the mother’s part. She, with her mouth, detaches an appendage off a person. That’s all I will say about that.
After the disappointing experience, my friend Zach mentioned that this was not the original. Actually, Wes Craven took the idea from Ingmar Bergman’s the Virgin Spring. So I rented it. This black and white version was pure in its delivery. I believe this is in Swedish, but I could be wrong. The ideas were the same, virgin naive daughter gets taken advantage of and raped and murdered, and father avenges her death. However, in this version, the father is ashamed of his actions and builds a church on the site where his daughter took her last breath.
These two films did not live up to the violence we had come to expect from horror films, and this led me on a search. I then came across I Spit on your grave.
I Spit on Your Grave. The title itself is was the driving factor behind this rental. I saw this movie a couple months back and the images still haunt me. Don’t ever watch this movie. But if you insist, make sure to have the remote control next to you so you can skip over some of the most graphic rape scenes in cinematic history. No lie.
The plot centers on a young female writer who sets out into the woods to develop her novel in a peaceful surrounding. She was dead wrong and four-country boys show up and destroy her, yes destroy. She comes back with a vengeance, however it was not what I was expecting.
This movie had all my guy friends looking at me like WTF is wrong with you Erika? Why did you rent this? I was tired of remakes and crappy We Craven originals that had no oomph to them. I asked for more and this went above and beyond the violence we sought.

A very reluctant cheers…
