And "I Spit on Your Grave"? I think we should hate it, not for the ideological value conveyed in the film, but for the shoddy production of this film, which is too simple, as simple as a single-brained pornographic film maker, self-righteous thinking that as long as Combining "nudity" with "violence" can earn sensational benefits. Based on this kind of thinking, the filmmakers decided to carry out this stupid strategy: nudity escalates to rape, violence escalates to death.
Just like those filmmakers who want to make A-movies more refined, "I Spit on Your Grave", in order to pretend to be a literary film, began to make the film gentle and lyrical, idyllic, and blurry. : A female writer went to a remote holiday villa for writing. Of course, this villa is very beautiful, with forests, lakes, open windows, spring flowers blooming, birds chirping... because everything is to set off later those cruel scenes.
In order to create this "contrast" effect, at the beginning of the film, the writers and directors also forged a simple and innocent character for those terrible rapists. When the heroine stood in front of the gas station in the country, the two dirty The young people chasing and playing with each other must bring her a "plain" association, right?
After completing the trick of "preparation", the simple and brutal temperament of the film is revealed: the heroine is raped by the four men who are following. After that, I thought I had escaped, but I was surrounded again in the woods, raped... The several minutes of realistic rape footage made some emotions reach a certain limit - both voyeurs and moral guards are looking forward to it. When it was over, it was over, the heroine crawled back to the room covered in mud and blood. However, the clever choreographers repeated their old tricks, and the four rapes came out of nowhere and carried out another brutal rape—of course, The footage is still as realistic and stark.
The whole rape process is carried out in three parts, which is commendable only in terms of the way the film progresses You bring unexpected surprises, and this surprise will have different effects on different people. For example, perverted porn fans will be pleasantly surprised, while honest people and timid people will feel terrified and even cry.
But unfortunately, "I Spit on Your Grave" does not need these narrative technical "success", it is easy to see that they need to repeatedly show those rape scenes, highlight the brutality to the limit, and maliciously challenge people tolerance limit.
But no matter what, the rape is finally over, and the rest is naturally violent revenge. And what connects this causal relationship is naturally the theme of this film, "blood for blood". This ancient but timeless logic has become the driving force for the heroine's revenge.
Just as the rape scene challenges the audience's psychological limits, the revenge slaughter is also carried out thoroughly, I think it is harder than "Kill Bill I", it can even be used as a textbook for murderers, at least, it can teach you Four ways to kill.
1. 1. Seduce a man to have sex, and hang him with a rope around his neck when he is in a state of fascination
; 2. Still seduction (the film continues to show pornographic elements), lures the man into the bathtub, and then cuts his genitals under the cover of the bath foam
; 3. Hit people into the lake with a speedboat, and then hit them to death with a propeller;
3. Beheading with an ax;
in fact, these killing scenes cannot stand up to scrutiny, far less realistic than the description in "Instinct", just as the heroine treats the four men as mentally handicapped, "I Spit on You" "The Grave" also wants to treat the audience as the mentally handicapped, it ignores some questions about the strength of men and women, so that the heroine suddenly becomes infinitely powerful, and kills four rapists with ease, to the audience who are filled with righteous indignation A bad breath came out.
And this distortion adds to the "simple" of the film and makes it more fragile. The only thing that still supports it is the vulgar mode of "rape" + "revenge". Therefore, "I Spit on Your Grave" "The ban is also deserved, it deserves to go to the grave.
