Apatros Review Ep-0083: I Spit on Your Grave [2010]

AR-0083: The original 1978 "Day of The Woman" was one of the most notorious movies of the 1970s - an extremely unpleasant revenge thriller that believe it or not is a surprisingly effective film in its promotion of Old Testament justice on those who are evil enough to sexually assault women.

The 2010 remake, however, is the complete opposite - a cynical attempt to cash in on the recognition of that original film, only to wind up making a rejig substantially more technically polished than its source work, but without the ability to carry over its message properly, leaving a nasty taste in the viewer's mouth.

This remake should never have been made - once was enough for this particular story.

My Grade: D [Bad]
