Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Taha Avalos The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
Pumpkin_Man I recently bought Arrow Video's 3-disc Blu-Ray of Wes Craven's ultimate classic, The Last House on the Left. I watched all three cuts in one day, so I decided to watch the remake afterward. I have seen this before, but it's been years. After re-watching it, I still very much prefer the original, but the revenge scenes in this one were gorier and better than the original. Garret Dillahunt (Fear the Walking Dead) made a very mean and more brutal Krug. Aaron Paul (Breaking Bad) was cool to see as Francis, Krug's brother. Riki Lindhome was sexy but deadly as Sadie, Krug's girlfriend. The acting was better and more believable this time around. On his way to prison, Krug is broken free by Francis and Sadie. Meanwhile, Mari Collingwood head to their lakehouse for a little vacation. Mari wants to go out and spend time with her best friend, Paige. They make the mistake of asking Justin for some pot (Justin happens to be Krug's son) When they get to the hotel, Krug and his gang takes them hostage. While driving through the woods, the girls try to make a break for it, but they get caught again and slowly tortured. When Mari is beaten, raped, shot and left for dead, a storm is coming and Krug and his gang just happen to seek refuge from Mari's parents. The tension rises when John and Emma Collingwood find their daughter savagely beaten and learn that the people they took in are the ones who attacked her. Soon, the parents will become just as psychotic as the killers. Overall, it's a very good remake. It feels more realistic, but as I said, I still love the original better. It's only a movie. It's only a movie...only a movie. If you love Wes Craven's original classic, you'll love LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT!!!
nagyovamonika 6.6 is pretty low for such a good movie. Guess everyone has different taste but still, i love this movie !!!!
kristina This is one of those movies I was merely too tired and lazy to turn off after a very hard week's work.Lots of gratuitous shots of young female bodies getting (un)dressed, the usual complete lack of shading (the good are supremely good, the bad are fiendish), the torturous build-up the rape scene which seemed to be regarded as worse than the friend's killing (!)... could go on. I'm sure Aaron Paul looks back on this choice with great embarrassment.The ending is obscene in its cynicism , blithely showing the "good" doctor as being no better than the "evil" enemy - utter garbage (note that I didn't chose the word rubbish to avoid American readers having to consult an English dictionary).Trump voters should love this. In other words: Avoid at all cost.
Adam Peters (49%) As far as Hollywood's recent and largely quite pointless horror remake obsession goes, including the rehashing of such gems as the Texas chainsaw massacre, Halloween, Nightmare on Elm street, Maniac etc, this is OK, but still at the end of the day a somewhat lazily controversial multiplex filler. In all fairness this is quite well put together, the direction is solid, and the performances for a sleazy revenge thriller are nothing to complain about. For anyone bar the most timid cinema goer this isn't going to overly offend, and really the violent attacks on the two kidnapped girls offer the only truly nasty parts of the whole movie. While everything else feels oddly difficult to even slightly shock as the scumbag characters 100% had it coming, so the message that all violence, just or not, is awful doesn't really work here. By the end this is just about worth a look for horror fans, but it won't become a cult hit like the original.
