SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

Essentially, "Revenge" is nothing more than "I Spit On Your Grave IV." A bunch of bad guys get their comeuppance from a young lady seeking revenge. This film, though, had more blood in it than a Midwest slaughter house at Chrismastime. Boy, was it gory.And unbelievable. There are some things you'll see that just wouldn't pan out in real life, but this is the movies, right? Where the unbelievable happens? Like the SONY logo says: Make. Believe.I believe I saw the unrated version. If it wasn't then I guess the R rated one left all the nasty bits intact, which is surprising because censor boards have been known to blacklist films with this much violence. If you're a fan of L'Intereur, I Spit On Your Grave, Ichi The Killer, Martyrs, Irreversible, etc., you won't be disappointed.

At the beginning everything seems normal and the storyline it's not the best but if you compare it to some blockbusters it may be even better.
Now, I know it's a B movie and you should expect flaws and that's Ok but at least you must believe in some way it's happening.
Let me point some ridiculous events on this movie.After been impaled on a small dry tree setting herself free after burning it it seems very lucky.
The amount of blood trace she left it seems like she doesn't run out of it.
Walk barefoot in the desert like she owns it.
She healed herself with a beer can, this one is the bomb: she heated it and used it to seal up the front wound, what about the one at the back????? And after that the beer brand engraved beautifully in her belly.It's like Rambo meets John McLain meets predator.

I like survival movies, wrong turn, the reach etc..this definitely fits into that category, kind of a stretch that she survived that fall being impaled, loss of blood etc but hey 1 in a million, " tell em I'm coming and hells coming with me", Go girl!

I'm sure there are many who will have a hard time with this film. It is very brutal and violent, with many scenes of gore and mayhem. But like the "Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," the heroine has her revenge. People will also have a hard time with the very obvious objectification of the main character as well. This is a movie that would not be criticized for this in the 70's or 80's, but will be today. My feeling this was the genre or "lens" the filmmakers were going for, for example in the film, "Last House on the Left." It's not PC, and the straight young men will salivate and have wet dreams later on, but it is interesting as a backward glance. Maybe the question is should these kinds of movies be made anymore at all? We don't make extremely racist cartoons anymore (check out Bugs Bunny from the 40's, it's unreal). Is it time for the rape/revenge/porn movie to come to a close? I hope not, at least when the brutality of violence against women is not glorified, but shown for what it is: cruel, revolting and evil. It gets us to point where we cheer for the revenger. I can't understand how so many people hated this film, giving it one or two stars. The acting, script, editing and cinematography is excellent. It got something like 86% positive on Rotten Tomatoes. It's an awesome film, if you like revenge films, right up there with The Horseman (the Australian film, not the Dennis Quaid one). Again, not for the faint of heart, but if you like intentional Tarantino-like 70's style grindhouse, this one is for you.
