The Last House On The Left

THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT is a parent's worst nightmare come to terrifying life. Beautiful 17-year-olds Mari and Phyllis head into the city for a rock concert, but once there, they're kidnapped by three repulsive, sadistic escaped convicts led by Krug Stillo. After the gang drives the girls into the woods, where they rape and murder them, the disheveled crew ends up at the home of none other than Mari's parents, John and Estelle. When John discovers who has unknowingly walked into his home, he exacts a revenge that makes the convicts' actions seem tame by comparison. Wes Craven's nightmarish odyssey of revenge helped to usher in a new era of graphic horror filmmaking in the early 1970s. Inspired by Ingmar Bergman's THE VIRGIN SPRING (1960) working on a shoestring budget and coaxing naturalistic performances out of his actors, Craven displays the talent that he would later develop on a grand scale.
