This is a film without a shred of artistic distinction. It lacks even simple craftsmanship. There is no possible motive for exhibiting it, other than the totally cynical hope that it might make money.

The plot is very thin. I don't understand why so many good ratings for a film with such a thin plot and weak acting. One would think this was a great film from the reviews. It ain't. I suppose some liked all the nudity, but that sure doesn't make up for all the bad acting, strained plot, and unrealistic events.

Sick and Violent Good is relative in this case, I'm a sucker for movies in the 70's (who isn't) so I might be biased but, even with the kind-of shite acting and a few other discrepancies ,this movie by far is much better than the remake, though it was definitely lacking with the revenge scenes.

IT'S A fictional MOVIE! Ppl are talking trash about the filmmakers for it being so gory & sick. IT'S MAKE BELIEVE! You can watch the news and be just as appalled! IE: psycho shoots up packed theater, including kids- now that is SICK!

Tragic Wonderfully written and directed. Amazing how a minf can turn in face of such devastation and fight back with such carefree abandon.

Whoever watches this needs an butt kicking, same as the idiot that filmed it Freaking sickos. Why would you want to watch this junk, unless you are a pervert!?
I spit on your grave. Pretty good, loved her revenge on the sheriff!!!
Best of its kind Rape/Revenge tale that makes you cringe at the former and cheer at the latter. Has a documentary feel that adds to impact.
Good movie actually I love the movie pre-view narrator. " I spit....on your grave."
1st half rulez! Prance around in a bikini in the country with 5 horny dudes...
They all deserve to die.... Great movie a classic. All those men are pigs and deserve wat happenes to them in this film and in the hardcore heart-stopping remake
Kill them all I loved this movie, and cheered her on with each kill.

This critically acclaimed Sundance breakout is hailed as one of the best horror films of the year. Tormented by an unknown entity, a young couple fights to survive a road trip-turned-nightmare when they're trapped in a claustrophobic backwoods maze on a dark road.

But when they leave the main road to look for their hotel they quickly become hopelessly lost. Misleading road signs send them in circles and soon night sets in.

Unbeknownst to them, their new home is actually one of the seven known gateways to Hell. The family's quiet new beginning is savagely derailed by a charismatic but emotionally conflicted man of the cloth. Directed by the protégé of Oscar®-Winner Gore Verbinski, this heart-pounding thriller costars Ethan Gregory Peck (THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE).
Frozen
Horror

Critics have called it "OPEN WATER on a ski lift" and "JAWS in the snow." It remains perhaps the most intense and terrifying film of 2010: As Sunday evening falls, three snowboarding friends decide to take one last run down the slope. Halfway up the mountain, their chair lift stops, the lights go out, and the resort closes for the week. They are stranded, but the worst is still to come. A storm is approaching. Frostbite is setting in. And on the ground below them, a pack of hungry wolves have gathered to wait. Kevin Zegers (DAWN OF THE DEAD, WRONG TURN), Shawn Ashmore (X-MEN, THE RUINS), and Emma Bell star in the relentlessly chilling thriller from writer/director Adam Green (HATCHET) that Harry Knowles of Ain't It Cool News hails as "a vicious, scary and horrifying experience...FROZEN is a howling good time!"
