I Spit on Your Grave

What to Know

Critics Consensus

I Spit on Your Grave is as aggressively exploitative as its title suggests, although as a crude rejoinder to misogyny, it packs a certain amount of undeniable power.

Cluedo Its a great little revenge story but not very action packed or got any tension Rated 3/5 Stars • Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/24 Full Review Doc H Shocking & disgusting, with sweet, cold revenge in the third act. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/03/24 Full Review Outer Splatter G The one of worst movie I have ever seen. Rated 1/5 Stars • Rated 1 out of 5 stars 11/09/23 Full Review Phantom P I only recommmend it if you have a certain point of view toward the subject of the movie. It got a lot of flak, was said to glorify violence against women. Though the violence against the main actress is incredibly excessive, it drives the point home in that her actions of retaliation against the men that did that to her is well-deserved. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/25/23 Full Review R Z I watched this and the 2010 remake. I prefer the remake. But you gotta give this one credit for coming up with the idea -- it's a pretty visceral premise for a slasher movie. And something I think this version did better than the remake is the kills are simpler and more believable. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/28/23 Full Review Nate L A pretty unmemorable movie with no greater purpose. It was somewhat enjoyable, though. Rated 2.5/5 Stars • Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 08/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

I Spit on Your Grave | Rotten Tomatoes (1) Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times 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. Rated: 0/4 Sep 20, 2012 Full Review I Spit on Your Grave | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Nick Schager Lessons of Darkness Simply another crudely made, explicitly violent '70s-era exploitation flick. Rated: C- Oct 10, 2005 Full Review I Spit on Your Grave | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Alan Jones Starburst I Spit On Your Grave does not maintain its level of offensiveness to become a sleaze cult classic as it strains credibility to such an extent that you can't really take it seriously. Jul 28, 2022 Full Review I Spit on Your Grave | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Kat Halstead Common Sense Media For those who are intrigued, go in prepared for a troubling experience guaranteed to make an impact -- whatever that may be for you. Rated: 2/5 Nov 3, 2021 Full Review I Spit on Your Grave | Rotten Tomatoes (5) Michael Talbot-Haynes Film Threat The film is a reaction to a system that allows rape to thrive unpunished by using cinema to expose and punish the perpetrators. Rated: 8.5/10 Oct 15, 2021 Full Review I Spit on Your Grave | Rotten Tomatoes (6) Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com Zarchi's refusal to place a musical score or focus on Keaton as a titillating object of desire adds to a sense of complete discomfort in long, unyielding sequences from which there's no escape. Rated: 3/5 Nov 23, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews
