MOVIE REVIEWWes Craven has been and still is one of my favorite horror film writers and directors in the film industry. However, The Last House On The Last looked like he was in film school. Very amateur style and the one part that was great, was Wes's ability to tell a great story from his past literary writing experience. The film is dark and very serious. It lives up to its' R rating and I wonder at times how much they had to either cut out or tame down to avoid getting the X rating back them. It's not a horrible film by any means, but if you compare it to his other films, such: A Nightmare On Elm Street, Scream and The People Under The Stairs. Comparing Last House to his horror film in the 1980s, Shocker, Last House beats it by one hundred percent. If it was possible Shocker would get a half star from me. All in all Wes Craven's Last House On The Left does show that there was filmmaking talent inside of him. It was an amazing start for him. Lastly the cast wasn't really spectacular. It seems like the only way the acting was good, was that since this was Wes's first film both written and directed, Sean Cunningham probably had to help him out with the directing part a lot. THANKS FOR READING!!!!!!!!!

Under different circumstances, I would have given this movie a slightly better rating, but it leads a lot to be desired. It's just disturbing and gruesome. There's no suspense, no plot, the movie doesn't go anywhere. It's literally like watching it just for the torture. A good movie is supposed to build up tension and the plot. This movie does not do that. I'm not a big fan of gore in horror movies as there are much better ways to make it scarier and build suspense at the same time.

hahahahahahhaha......they killed a priest and 2 nuns....LOL!...what could be worse?..........".....by an animal-like woman...."...hahahahaa!....what exactly does a woman have to do to qualify as being "animal-like?"...bark like a dog?....hahaha....this is so hokey.....In the scene where Phyllis's hand sticks out between Weasel and Sadie and eventually falls to the ground, its obvious that whoever is attached to the hand is still alive because the fingers move....you'd think Wes craven would have caught that before putting it in the film......another thing too....if you were a woman and a man just killed your daughter, would you allow him to put his penis in your mouth?....i don't think so.......Also, just exactly what did the doctor hope to accomplish by stringing wire outside the bedroom doors and smearing shaving cream all over the floor?.....so the killers would fall down....woop-tee-do...Seems like a lot of work to go to for nothing...all that would do is make the killers MADDER....It didn't accomplish one thing.....Also if the killers were murderers who escaped prison, every law enforcement official in the country would be looking for them...that being the case, why would they waste all this time torturing and killing a couple of teenage bimbos?...What would be the point?...i think in real life, the killers would either be hiding or trying desperately to get out of the country.....Lastly, why were there so many movies made in the 70s like this one, which portray the police as stupid, bumbling, clumsy, redneck, keystone-type cops?..is that really how people saw law enforcement as being back then?

Jesus, this may have been Horror in the 1970's... but we were laughing most of the way through it.Completely two dimensional characters, pathetic actors that were never seen again, and the storyline was full of plot holes and completely implausible.For some reason, while all sorts of mayhem is going on, the police characters are written as comedic? It was also meant to be a horror movie, where in effect, its actually a crime/thriller.Production value wise, it looks like it was made using a $120 voucher from Kennards Hire.Not recommended.
