Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
Writer-director Meir Zarchi's controversial story of rape and revenge has lost none of its ability to shock viewers since it first gained notoriety in the late '70s. Camille Keaton (grand-niece of Buster Keaton and, later, Zarchi's wife) stars as a young woman who is terrorized and then brutally assaulted by four men while on vacation. After slowly pulling herself together, she methodically tracks down and butchers each of the perpetrators. Zarchi's film has been consistently accused of celebrating violence against women, and while the rape scenes are graphic, they also lack the voyeuristic qualities that earmark other similarly plotted exploitation films. If anything, Zarchi is guilty of awkward scripting; the dialogue is leaden, and Keaton's transformation from victim to avenger is too swift. But to label him a pornographer is wrong, and while the film is challenging--perhaps more than most audiences can bear--its depiction of the psychology of violence is undeniably powerful. --Paul Gaita

If you did not see this classic movie in the 70s, you should grab this right now and enjoy it at home . I can't imagine all these great flicks will be made available on screw-ray or whatever useless DRM format is coming up so don't wait. Highly recommended if you like 70s movies.

Originally released in 1978 as "Day of the Woman" and re-released in 1980 with the more popular title (which writer/director Meir Zarchi hates), "I Spit on Your Grave" is a low-budget film telling a simple story of rape-and-revenge. Jennifer Hill, a magazine writer from New York City, rents a country house for the summer to write her first novel. Four low-lifes catch wind of her and brutally rape her, leaving her for dead. She survives, however, and executes revenge on each, using their weaknesses ... Read More

So this was one of the 'video nasties' that were supposed to be so terrible and that we should be protected from. Well I have to say that after finally seeing this film I found it quite tame. The most disturbing part is the extended multi-rape section which is quite relentless and unpleasant. However, the revenge part of the story is just daft and not at all the gory holocaust that I would have liked. This isn't a horror film at all but a rape drama. Quite well put together but presented as something ... Read More

As a woman anything to do with rape makes me feel sick (literally). I cannot watch anything like that because it really fu**'s up with my head and then makes me want to crawl into a hole(lock myself in my room for days) scared to step outside in fear. Is the worst feeling. I am always paranoid about the though just because I am a woman. as much as I would like to see her get her payback I will not watch this movie;-(
I heard of a story about a friends friend (male) who got raped by two guys and ... Read More

I went into this film with high hopes, being that it is considered one of the most controversial films of all time. However, this movie has absolutely no redeeming qualities. The acting is absolutely the worst I have ever seen, and the storyline is non-existant. Furthermore, there is absolutely no character development. Yes, the rape scenes are graphic and do get a little hairy, no pun intended. But other than that, this is your run-of-the-mill revenge story. Problem is, revenge has been done better a million ...
