I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

A Brilliant Conflict

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

The entire of the vicious and barbaric forest rape and barbaric hunting scene which can be entirely cut out and you would have the same affect for the plot and flow of the movie and the end twist. About 30 minutes of this movie puts any other slasher/goreflick to shame. Nothing about that forest scene says good cinema or will leave you with any feelings besides a piece of your soul leaving. It puts the incredibly painful, once in a life, watching of the squeal like a pig scene from Deliverance to shame. Besides that large chunk of the movie. Wes Craven tells a good story. Except he wanted to sicken people just to see how far he could go. He may have used some bull reason that it was an allegory for Vietnam. That's bull though. This was just schlock gore trying to see how far he could get away with. Finding a cut version (there are tons out there... It still can't be shown with the whole forest scene in most regions on the planet almost 50 years later) if you want to watch it. You won't miss anything to the story.

The Last House On The Left is one of the greatest Horror films ever made,an excellent,powerful and disturbing film that combines fine direction,a good cast and a memorable soundtrack. All of those elements make The Last House On The Left a Horror classic that is Wes Craven at his best.The Last House On The Left tells the story of Mari(Sandra Cassell),a teenager who's celebrating her 17th birthday by going to a rock concert with her friend Phyllis(Lucy Grantham)in New York City. While in the city Mari and Phyllis are looking to score some marijuana but get kidnapped by escaped convicts led by Krug(David Hess)which lead up to terrifying results.Released in 1972,The Last House On The Left is a brilliant Horror film that not only marked the directorial debut of director and Horror master Wes Craven but is also one of the most controversial and infamous Horror movies ever made. Disturbing,brutal and sadistic all around,The Last House On The Left is film that caused a stir the minute it opened in movie theaters in 1972 thanks to it's now famous movie poster and trailer tag-line("to avoid fainting keep repeating it's only a movie,only a movie")or the violent nature and was even banned in several countries and no matter what it will always seem to divide critics and audiences some will love or hate it some will see it as a Horror classic or a piece of trash there seems to be no middle ground. Regardless how you feel about the movie The Last House On The Left is up there with Night Of The Living Dead(1968)and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre(1974)in giving audiences a different kind of Horror movie and is one of the finest Horror films of the 1970s that you will never ever forget and if A Nightmare On Elm Street(1984)and Scream(1996)are Wes Craven's most famous films then The Last House On The Left is his most notorious. With The Last House On The Left Wes Craven has crafted a movie(which was made on a low budget of just 87,000$)that's rough around the edges and is an exploitation movie to the hilt but is a film with a raw and striking power that punches viewers in the gut with fright and terror that just comes off the screen at viewers. With Last House we given a movie that isn't easy to watch but is gripping from beginning to end and offers no salvation or positive outcome and while the film isn't scary Last House is a disturbing and unflinching look at violence,murder and pure evil. The atmosphere and tone in Last House is grim and bleak with a style that is sleazy,ugly and morally corrupt with a documentary feel as if you right there watching all the horrific things going on which makes the film feel realistic. Last House also gives viewers a look at the tone and feel of late 1960s early 70s Nixon era:Vietnam,The Manson Family Murders,Hippies,The Watergate Scandal and the violence during those times told in an angry and violent way. And speaking of the violence,in Last House the violence in the film is not for the weak at heart or people with can't stand violence because the violent scenes are mean spirited and vicious showing human beings at their most horrific. Craven would bring the same darkness and brutality to his later films such as A Nightmare On Elm Street and Scream but it all started here but make no mistake about it Last House is not a Slasher film. I guess that's why Last House has some Comedic scenes before,during and after the violence scenes to lighten the mood. The main characters in the film whether it's the bad guys or other main characters are actually interesting and well-developed with memorable lines and scenes. The ending of The Last House On The Left is amazing,effective and goes along with the theme of violence throughout the whole movie. A great conclusion.The cast is great. Sandra Cassell is fantastic and believable as Mari,with Cassell bringing depth to the role. Lucy Grantham is wonderful as Phyllis,Mari's friend. David Hess is excellent,frightening and unforgettable as Krug,who in my opinion is one of the greatest villains of all-time. Fred Lincoln is great as Weasel,Krug's right hand man. Jeramie Rain is incredible as Sadie,the lone woman in Krug's group. Marc Sheffler does a fine job as Junior,Krug's drug addicted son. Richard Towers(as Gaylord St. James)and Cynthia Carr do good job as John and Estelle Collingwood,Mari,parents. Marshall Anker(Sheriff)and Martin Kove(Deputy)are funny as local lawman.The direction by Wes Craven is good,with Craven basically pointing and shooting bringing a documentary look to the film and keeping the film moving at a solid pace. Fine direction,Craven,RIP.The score by David Hess is terrific,offbeat,haunting and fits with the tone and mood of the film. Great score,Hess.In final word,if you love Wes Craven or Horror films,I highly suggest you see The Last House On The Left,an excellent,disturbing and unforgettable Horror classic that you will never forget. Highly Recommended. 10/10.

I had put off watching this film despite hearing good things about until the death of horror maestro Wes Craven last week. Having read aspects of the plot online I wasn't sure, even after watching Gaspar Noe's Irreversible that I could handle The Last House on the Left. However after deciding I could not claim to be a Wes Craven fan without watching it I mentally prepared myself and put the film on. For starters I recommend that you avoid reading about the plot of this film before watching it, difficult as that may be due to its age and notoriety. This review does not contain huge spoilers but will cover some key plot points. So, the film begins. It is the most seventies thing I have ever seen, but not in a negative way. The cinematography is great and the characters are believable and likable. The film benefits from being made in this time period as it allows the film to take its time making the audience really get to know the characters - and had one not had prior knowledge of the film, it would be possible to believe it is a merry little film about two hippie friends having a great time going to a concert. We are also however introduced to the antagonists - radios in the background of scenes clueing us in to the escape of psychopathic criminal Krug and his family. We also see the family themselves lounging around in their home, which will later become the location for the disequilibrium in the film and the site at which Phyllis and Mari are taken hostage. Now to the infamous crux of the film, the rape scenes. Yes, they are uncomfortable, as they should be, however, Craven is careful to toe the line and never cross into sleaze or eroticism of the acts portrayed, in fact he even cut some of the forced lesbian scene after the film was finished as he believed he had gone too far. This is supposed to be horrible, and it is. These senses are long and painstaking to watch but necessary to sit through in order to appreciate the second act of the film. This is where I believe the film lets itself down a little, something I am not sure whether has been changed in the 2009 version. Maybe after watching the first half was too bloodthirsty, but personally I think that Krug and his gang did not suffer enough. The realisation my Mari's mother was not done particularly well and I didn't find their revenge to be equal to the crimes committed to their daughter and her friend. Having said that the idea was unique and brilliant to have the criminals end up at the parents house. Perhaps my view that the ending is not horrible enough shows that Wes Craven has made a film that garners such strong feelings in those that watch it that during the end scenes we are yelling for the dad to just starting chopping bits of of Krug with the chainsaw already. For some horror fans who have grown up on Saw and Hostel this may not seem like a typical 'horror' film, however it is a classic and it deserves to be revered as one. It is dated, (the music and shooting style, clothing, acting) but this does not detract from the horror and I can only imagine how shocking it was to audiences at the time. Well worth a watch if you are a fan of the genre, rape revenge films in general (Straw Dogs, I Spit on Your Grave...) or the director. It is one of the best films I will never watch again, and remember keep telling yourself "It's only a movie".

Many years before they would both begin slasher franchises that would compete with each other, debuting filmmaker Wes Craven and producer Sean S. Cunningham collaborated on this ugly but compelling bit of cinema. The filmmaking is undeniably crude, but the subject matter is effectively upsetting. "The Last House on the Left" offers up the kind of experience that one doesn't easily shake, and may engender very personal love-it-or-loathe-it reactions. The performances aren't slick and polished, but they're still right on the money. One feels for the victims and feels the need for a shower just watching our Manson Family-type antagonists.Two teenage girls, Mari (Sandra Peabody), and Phyllis (Lucy Grantham), are on their way to a rock concert when they make the impulsive - and fatal - decision to try to score some grass. This brings them into contact with prison escapee Krug Stillo (David Hess) and his grimy associates, Fred 'Weasel' Podowski (Fred J. Lincoln), Sadie (Jeramie Rain), and Krugs' illegitimate, junkie son Junior Stillo (Marc Sheffler). This gang of lowlifes puts the girls through a nightmare of torture and degradation, but their comeuppance comes from an appropriate source due to an incredible coincidence.An acknowledged reworking of Ingmar Bergmans' "The Virgin Spring", this features some very potent violence and gore. For our victims, it plays like a bad dream that seems to have no end. To provide us with some respite from the horror, Craven creates a film that is unfortunately mixed tonally. The comedy relief from incompetent cops Marshall Anker and Martin Kove is simply too silly. Also, Hess's score is a little too upbeat for a chase scene that should be more harrowing.Peabody and Grantham are appealing, even if their characters don't act too sensibly. It's also not hard to feel bad for Junior, who is just pathetic. Richard Towers and Cynthia Carr are okay as Maris' parents, but the show entirely belongs to the villains. Hess in particular proves to have a real presence, and a real knack for playing the most degenerate character imaginable.There's one very memorable gag involving Carr and Lincoln, and a delicious final fight between sadist and avenger.Future director Steve Miner was an assistant editor, production assistant, and bit player (as one of the hippies taunting the cops).Seven out of 10.
