I Spit On Your Grave

[MichaelsDarkAngel]

Do you think this was a good movie or over-rated? I like it and own it, but some of it was alittle too graphic. Anyone agree?

holy piss noodle. they still have kelly's video around here. wow.

[Romero&Juliet]

Holy piss poodle?? LOL!!

yeah. and they're selling off almost ALL of their horror.


I just finished it....I really dont know what to make of it yet, though. I'll have to see it again before I can really say Anything at all about it!!

Well it was good, but I'm debating whether I'm into the ending or not.. like, whether It could've done with something after...well.....you know...

[The Claw]

did they have anything worth my time, thats near the village, and i totally detest the villiage mall, so i would have to be sure about what was there, so did they have anything good?

and i dont know where holy piss noodle came from. really.

[Romero&Juliet]

nawww.. Nothing AT ALL except for that.

[The Claw]

good. i would probably go insane if i had to go to the village mall again. and romero, we are so mean, we just like ruined this guys topic.

ok ok, to stay on topic, i dont think i could enjoy this, it has rape. and i dont like rape, and michaels dark angel, check IMDb, people either love or hate that movie.

[Cyclonus]

I've seen this thing for sale, but so far I can't find it at any local video rental. I sure as hell don't want to buy it. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/redface.gif

[Romero&Juliet]

nahhh....its Nothing that I'd want to own. Even if it were free.. It was a good movie, but I doubt I'll ever want to see it again. Ever.

I picked this up for a couple of bucks at a yard sale. Why these old folks had this in their video collection I have no idea. Might want to stay away from that neighborhood. Anyway you guys are right. Stay away from this one, unless your into some disturbing shit. The rape scene goes on for WAY too long and the end deaths are too quick and far fetched.

[Horror_Fanatic]

Hey guys, Im fairly sure that you know better then to discuss this kind of stuff on the boards. If you want to share shopping tips, I would appreciate it if you would use some other means.

This thread is for discussing I Spit On Your Grave.

Thanks.

I enjoyed this movie even though the rape scene are way too long and graphic but it does add too the story. It shows why she went insane and gives her revenge scenes more meaning....Remeber its just a movie.

[kubotakhan01]

That is one F**ked up movie!! I don't know that many people who have seen it though. I haven' seen it on video anywhere in a long time. I liked it though. NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH!!!!!!

[michael_myers_woman]

Does this movie have Thom Mathews in it?

[PapaJupe2k]

No, it was released in 1978. Too bad.

[michael_myers_woman]

ok

As far as everyone saying this movie was to graphic??? lol I dont really understand that, I will take a movie as graphic as I can get my paws on. Never heard horror fans say a movie was to graphic.... but oh well. as far as the movie its highly overrated. but by no means to graphic.

There were only three times I questioned The Arrow's sanity, his reviews of "Battlefield Earth", "Warlock III" and "I Spit On Your Grave". Fair enough, everyone is entitled to their opinion but I found little to reccomend any of them... at least the first two I just mentioned had moments of unintentional hilarity that gave them a kinda camp appeal...

"I Spit On Your Grave" struck me as a distaff rip-off of "Deliverance"...maybe if I hadn't seen that movie beforehand I would've enjoyed this one more. I doubt it though : I'm off the "less is more" school with regards to sex and violence in movies generally - you don't HAVE to put it in to bring the message across. I know that rape is bad. I don't need to see a half hour rape scene to figure that out. The sick people who do need to be told that might even find such a graphic scene stimulating. The sex and violence in "I Spit On Your Grave" was so graphic I began to wonder if some of it wasn't really faked.

I think if you want to make a statement about violence the best way is to show the psychological/emotional impact on the victims/perpetrators after the fact.

But that's my opinion.

Still, like "Last Temptation Of Christ", "Crash" and "Lolita" this is one of those controversial films that you can at least say "Yes, I've seen it" and it tends to provoke interesting discussions. I guess that's one good thing I can say about it.

[teenkiller]

Does anyone know if there is a dvd of this movie or if they plan on releasing one soon? I'd like to check it out. Well thats all for now GOoD JOURNEY my fellow schmoes.

[Toxferatu]

there's a dvd at best buy, i pick it up, look at it and always decide 27 bucks is too much.

havent seen it myself, dont wanna buy it without seeing it first. damn rental places around here dont have ANYTHING. but the hollywood video has some cool shit, just nothing that i really wanna see.

Sorry if this offends but it seems the majority here like graphic HORROR, not graphic sexual assault. I believe that is what they meant. And in that department, yea it does go on a little too long for anyone's taste. As for the violence (revenge on attackers) um-no- that isn't graphic. Barely any blood. There is a difference.

I Spit On Your Grave is actually supposedly next on Elite's Millenium Edition DVD schedule. Night of the Living Dead,
Re-Animator, I Spit On Your Grave. One of those doesn't belong. Theres also the current version they have at stores everywhere now.
I've never seen the movie, and don't plan on it. 40 minute rape scenes are not for me. It doesn't strike me as 2-Disc Millenium Edition DVD worthy movie.
