I Spit on Your Grave

Although made in 1977 it wasn't til the early 80's when this film made such a fuss. Lumped in with all of the slasher films I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE, alternately released as DAY OF THE WOMAN, this film was banned in many parts for perceived gratuitous violence towards women. In fact, it is about a woman who avenges herself on a group of men who raped and beat her. Make no mistake, though this was one low budget flick, the rape scenes are still extremely disturbing to this day. With no doubt influence from DELIVERANCE, writer/director Meir Zarchi does a credible job of presenting this tale in a believable fashion. One of the best death by castration scene you will ever witness is included here and I must say it was a shame Camille Keaton didn't do more films as her work is quite solid.
