Review of The Last House on the Left (1972) by Josh G — 25 May 2010

'Last House on the Left' is a debut movie of Wes Craven & Sean.S Cunningham & is the original 1972 Video nasty & was banned in many countries & still some today. The film dose start out pretty slow then it did build up to the good stuff which was a great showcase of terror & alot of shock in the movie as for its time ( as in the 70's people would have been horrified by what was happening as our time it's not as shocking because it's always happening while it was just only happening more in the 60's/70's & people where getting shock, soo this film bring the truth of these kind of people that like to do it & get enjoyment out of it).

The Movie did have some good 70's music/tune & had a lot of violence, sex, acts of violation, revenge & blood (which you could tell it was fake) & even showing gust (which was good but bad for its time), I think this was a brilliant debut of Wes Craven as he did an excellent job, but his written was not so good as the storyline/plot lacked on a back-story & any creative as other Wes Craven film, but this was a great start for him as the master of Horror (even through this film had thrills & terror). The Film is watchable but can be un-tasteful for many people, but is different for the fans of the genre (Thriller, Crime, Drama & Horror), Wes Craven & Sean.S Cunningham fans, while having great texture on the low-budget directing & for its themes, style &the good use of its elements, while the ending was what you would expects but is well worth seeing & is a little classic and cannot wait to see the 2009 remake version one (to see if is any better or worse).
