![]() ![]() Even though she didn’t star in the other film, Olsen plays the husband of slaughtered Jonny and Tavare is the father of Matthew. It is hard to have that same distinction with the other characters in the film because only two of them are directly related to the previous film and that’s Becky Stills played by Maria Olsen and Herman (Jim Tavare). Jamie Bernadette plays daughter Christie, and from the very get-go has the same strong personality that her mother does, creating a sense of realism around these two central characters. If you’ve seen I Spit On Your Grave, you’ll remember the horrific and distressing rape and violence that was inflicted upon her and what lengths she went to to exact revenge on those inhumane men. Both Jennifer and Christie are kidnapped by two men in a van and taken back to the desolate and isolated rural town where everything happened in 1978, and soon discover that not everyone believed the attackers deserved what they got.Ĭamilla Keaton reprises her role as Jennifer Hills, which helps the audience to immediately connect with this woman in front of us. Even though they are both living their lives comfortably with the past events far behind them, the families of the men that Jennifer killed have been living with a sour taste in their mouth – one that can be sweetened by exacting their own revenge on her. Jennifer has found fame as the survivor of such an ordeal, and even has an adult daughter, Christie, who is one of the most famous models in the world. It has been forty years since Jennifer Hills was brutally gang raped and left for dead, only to seek revenge against her attackers and savagely slay them for what they did to her. However, Zeir Marchi of the original film needed to ride back on his fame and claim back the title, and therefore we have the latest film in the (what has now become) franchise: I Spit On Your Grave Deja Vu. Braunstein went on to release I Spit On Your Grave 3 in 2015, which was hit and miss with many audiences. Monroe saw that as his go-ahead to create another film I Spit On Your Grave 2 in 2013, which wasn’t favoured as much as his previous venture. In 2010 there was a direct remake of I Spit On Your Grave, which although not as hard-hitting as the original, was still well-made and watchable. Regardless of your own personal feelings towards the film, there is no denying that it spawned a legacy and gained cult status with many fans of the extreme horror genre. Now, many critics ponder on whether this rape revenge film is actually a feminist piece and was misunderstood all along. Many outlets at the time claimed that it glorified violence against women, and was gratuitous in it’s depiction of rape. With an offensive and aggressive title alone, there was no surprise that the horror movie itself was brutal, which led to it being heavily censored in some places, and outright banned in other countries, and also found itself placed on the UK’s notorious video nasty list. That film was none other than Meir Zarchi’s I Spit On Your Grave aka Day of the Woman. This despicable group wants to get revenge on Jennifer for the murders she commited, but Christie responds with bloody violence.īack in the 70s one of the most controversial films was released into the world in 1978, and shocked the audiences to their very core.
