Review of I Spit on Your Grave (2010) by Nicola W — 20 Dec 2011
The original film is a much better film than people give it credit for. I remember watching the fully uncut version and having to pause the film mid way to catch my breathe, it was that powerful.
This remake however, is not. It's a very standard remake but done in an incredibly shoddy low budget style (almost even more so than the original). The original felt like it was truly about something. It felt like it was trying to break the boundaries of cinema and do something new, unique and it's done incredibly nastily.
This is just an excuse to show excessive sexual violence and gore and doesn't even have the courtesy to back any of it up with reason.
Terrible film. We never needed a remake of this and if there were to be a remake they could at least do a better job than this.
