Art is subjective so if you’re a fan of the original you owe it to yourself to seek this out. My good friend, the filmmaker Mark Savage, Breeanna Judy & I continued to discuss this film and how it effected all of us late into the night. She goes places I didn’t expect and I loved it. It was a joy to see where Camille’s character had grown in his universe and golly did Maria Olsen KILL IT as the lead baddie. Some thoughts after seeing it: just as the original revolted some viewers this new one is a dish not right for everyone and some people walked out. Banned in countries around the world at the time of its release, and still banned in some places, I Spit on Your Grave is famous for its brutal scenes of gang rape and its revenge storyline. * Mark Savage, some fathead, Writer/Director Meir Zarchi, Jamie Bernadette, & Camille Keaton Last year, Jamie Lee Curtis returned as Laurie Strode in the new. Our review: Parents say ( 2 ): Kids say ( 2 ): One of the most controversial 'video nasties' out there, this 1978 horror's reputation very much precedes it. *I loves me some Breeanna Judy, the actress, producer, & owner of Meddlesome Films LLC Meeting Meir was a joy, how could I possibly explain how much of an influence his film was to me as a young horror writer? I couldn’t, I was polite and he was kind but if he had any idea how much I had watched, re-watched and watched again his film with commentaries and such… I “get” what he was going for with his vision in the original even if critics misunderstood it. There’s not a ton of things I’d drive over 5 hrs from Las Vegas to attend but this certainly was on the list. I have worked with cast members Jim Tavare and Maria Olsen before in Full Moon Entertainment’s KILLJOY PSYCHO CIRCUS and reached out to them once I heard there would be a red carpet cast/crew premiere in Beverly Hills. Maria Olsen, Jim Tavare, Jonathan Peacy, Jeremy Ferdman, Holgie Forrester, Roy Allen and Alexandra Kenworthy also star. Incensed that Jennifer Hills was vindicated of killing her rapists decades prior, both mother and daughter are kidnapped by revenge-seeking relatives. Over 40 years after the controversial exploitation film was unleashed, director Meir Zarchi is back with I Spit On Your Grave: Deja Vu, being billed as the only true sequel to the 1978 rape-revenge movie.Ĭamille Keaton reprises the role of Jennifer Hills in Deja Vu, starring alongside Jamie Bernadette as her daughter, Christy Hills. I was never blown away by the remake or its sequels so when I heard that the writer/director of the classic was coming out with a direct sequel I was over the moon! In my eyes Camille Keaton will always be a queen. I have met the lead actress from the original a few times and even had discussions relating to films I was producing about attaching her to them. *even if SpookyNinjaKitty couldn’t care less… “Stoopid Huuman.” Otherwise, I wouldn’t have this, it’s not the kind of film shirt you can wear to a picnic… As is evidenced me having a T-shirt of it. *Hi Boys! Remember me? I am a HUGE FAN of the original exploitation “Rape and Revenge” classic film I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE.
