I gave this film five stars not because "I loved it, " as the stars are described
I gave this film five stars not because "I loved it," as the stars are described, but because it's one of the better depictions of what a woman who is attacked by more than one man goes through. Reviewer Lawrence Bernabo writes that the director "pours it on thick, absolutely assuring that things go beyond the tolerance level of anyone who watches this film." There's a what?...a TOLERANCE level to rape? People tolerate it? Damnit, yes they sadly do. That's why the critics hated it so and why countries banned it. It was too real. Possibly too much from a victim's perspective, versus voyeurs and others. Most rape scenes don't show the pain of the woman, let us see her lay there for some time, getting over the shock and pain, take the time to show the victim slowly crawl away, slowly walk away...looking around and wondering if they are following, pausing to stand and look at her house, wondering if they are in there, only to be attacked again, and again. Let us hear her screams. In most rape scenes they are cut off time-wise, or a hand goes over her mouth or she's beaten to shut her up...I think a lot of that is so the audience CAN "tolerate" what they are watching. Oh, but this was too much, I'm sure the critics said. Yes, rapes and assaults ARE "sanitized" so that they get by the TV and movie censors, and so that they aren't hated by critics or banned by entire countries.In this movie, her multiple attackers let her go for a bit frequently, and didn't hold her so well so that she had a chance to fight. Try fighting three men who find you in a deep, deep sleep in your own bed. I could barely wake up until the pain hit. And you'd think anyone raped by three men would have a lot of injuries. Strangely, when you are held down well, before you are awake, you don't get injured, much. Oh, there was internal pain and injuries, but externally....only one bruise on the inside of my thigh. And I have Von Willebrand's disease! Which mean I bleed and bruise easily! So I was very, very surprised at my lack of obvious injuries. And guess what else, women who don't get broken bones and lots of cuts and bruises are less likely to report it because they figure who will believe them. I *WISH* I had had bones broken.Even so, the fierce desire for revenge is blindingly overwhelming. It was near the end of a semester and I didn't return to that school. It took the woman in the movie two weeks to get into action. I was in shock for several months before the rage set in, but by that time I was hundreds of miles from the perpetrators so got a gun, out of fear and rage, and walked around like Jodie Foster did in The Brave One (she wasn't raped, her fiancee was killed...shock and rage also sets in), at night, with a gun, in the worst sections of a city because I wanted to kill a man sooo desperately, any man. If anyone had said anything off color to me, or even had looked at me funny, my reaction would have been instantaneous. Jodie Foster's character did kill. I was enraged that no one, not one person tried anything. Many years later I wondered what the hell my body language must have been saying because gangs of men walked right by me and not one even looked at me. Well that's not true. A few looked at me for a moment, and then looked away. A slender, young woman alone at night and no one took the bait. Damn...it's almost funny now, 35 years later. Either someone was looking out for them, or looking out for me. But you never forget. The pain just ebbs.The write/director of this movie either had an amazing imagine, or he talked with some women who were raped, because he got many things right.

SHE DID WHAT SHE HAD TO DO.
BASED ON A TRUE STORY. THIS LATE 1970'S FILM IS ABOUT A WOMAM WHO WAS RAPED AND TORTURED BY A GROUP OF HIPPIES THEN LEFT HER TO DIE. BUT LOOK OUT... SHE COMES BACK WITH A VENGENCE. PERSONLY IN MY OPINION, SHE DID WHAT SHE HAD TO DO. LET'S FACE IT, SHE WAS GANG-RAPED, TORTURED AND THEN LEFT TO DIE. ONE REVIEWER SAID THAT SHE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE GAS CHAMBER FOR KILLING THOSE MEN. WELL I WILL SAY THIS IN HER DEFENSE. IN SOME WAYS SHE DID THE RIGHT THING. SHE REALLY HAD NO CHOICE. 1 WHAT IF THEY MAY HAVE CAME BACK WEEKS OR MONTHS LATER A TRIED IT AGAIN, 2. WHAT IF THE MEN DID THIS TO SOME OTHER WOMAN. THAT'S WHERE I HAVE LEARNED IN ONE RESPECT... YOU DON'T MESS WITH WOMEN LIKE THAT. IF YOU HURT THEM, IN SOME CASES THEY WILL KILL YOU. IT IS THAT SIMPLE. I SAT AND WATCHED THIS MOVIE, THESE ANIMALS RAPE AND TORURE THIS HELPLESS WOMAN WHO WAS A VICTUM FROM THE MOMENT THIS SICK INCIDENT HAPPENED. SHE DID NOT DESERVE TO BE TREATED LIKE THAT. AND SPEAKING AS A REAL MAN... WHICH I AM. THE STORIES AGAINST HER AND ABOUT HER ARE PURE SICK AND PURE PUKE. AND AFTER WATCHING THIS MOVIE. SHE SEEMED TO BE A REALLY NICE KIND GENTLE WOMAN WAS PRUTALLY ROBBED FOR NOTHING. TO THESE SICK MEN WHO DID THIS TO THAT WOMAN... IT WAS A PARTY THAT WAS NOT FUN AT ALL. TO THIS INNOCENT WOMAN... IT WAS GREAT JUSTICE. AND IF SHE HADN'T THE MONSTERS WOULD HAVE DONE THIS TO ANOTHER WOMAN. I AM AGAINST VIOLENCTS. BUT UNDER THESE CONTITIONS OF THE BRUTALITY, THIS IS ONE MOVIE THAT GUYS WILL THINK TWICE ABOUT EVER RAPING OR TORURING A WOMAN AGAIN. THERE WAS NO RESPECT FOR THIS WOWMAN WHATS SO EVER. SHE WAS ON HER WAY TO WRITTING HER FIRST BOOK WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THIS GOES OUT TO THE REAL LIFE WOMAN. I AM SO SORRY ABOUT THIS. THIS WAS WRONG AND THSES MEN PAIED THE ULTIMATE PRICE, AND THEY DESERVED WHAT THEY GOT. SURE, THERE IS VIOLENTS IN WOMEN. I HAVE SEEN IT. BUT IN THIS CASE THIS WAS A MEANS FO PROTECTING HERSELF AND OTHER WOMEN. AND POSSIBLY MEN, BUT ON THE OTHER HAND I REALLY DOUBT THAT ONE. SHE WAS THE JUSTICE. THAT'S IT. IT CERTAINLY MADE ME THINK TWICE ABOUT EVER DOING SOMETHING LIKE THAT. I WOULD NOT DO THAT KIND OF THING ANYWAY. PLEASE UNDERSTAND... THOSE MEN WOULD HAVE DONE THIS TO SOMEBODY ELSE IF SHE DID NOT KILL THIS MEN. QUITE FRANKLY, SHE WON IN THE END. ALTHOUGH VERY EXTREME... THIS WAS AND IS A WOMAN NO MAN WILL EVER MESS WITH EVER AGAIN.

Good film
A controversial film with some hard hitting scenes however a good film and the ultimate collecters edition is a great edition to a film collection for fans. Meir Zarchi has mad a masterpiece a film people still talk about years after its making and ban in most country's. Probably the best video nasty going I will say though not the faint hearted or people who can not handle the things that go on within this film.
P**.
Chaud devant !
Bon d'accord, le film a vieilli mais au moins le cinéma était quand meme plus libre à cette époque.La fille qui se fait violée et qui se venge, ça a été fait des centaines de fois depuis, mais la, le petit plus c'est l'ambiance séventies!Le coté fringues rigolotes, les bons vieux clichés stéréotypés, une histoire basique, quelques scènes dénudées, un peu de violence et pas de pitié pour les méchants !Du grand film d'époque type série B sans prétention mais qui se regarde avec un oeil indulgent.Ne boudons pas notre plaisir, et l'honneur est sauf puisque cette charmante créature s'en sort, fallait pas la violer !A ce prix la, un bon investissement !
