November 3, 2009Horror film gone wrong. The makers of the film got their education from WalMart. Shaky camera. Rubber props (fire extinguisher). Unrelated violence. I failed to see what crime the bad guys actually did, where as the parents were more evil than satan. Not so bad acting but if I ha...( read more)

September 28, 2009You are kidding me, right? This movie did not get made, and all that money wasn't wasted on this project, right? It was a dream I had, right? Geez I don't know -- I cannot fathom -- what made me sit through this entire thing. Arrrrrrrrgh! Makes Blair Witch look like <...( read more)

September 12, 2009Not bad, even though the whole story seems short a little. Interesting, worth the watch!

August 25, 2009I don't know. I've seen this movie three times now. Wes Craven's 1972 Last House on the Left was an unforgiving, brutal horror picture where everybody suffers. The Virgin Spring, the Swedish Ingmar Bergman film that influenced Craven's film, is one of the best films ever made....( read more)

August 22, 2009A adreniline-fuelled, no-holds-barred edge of your seat thriller thats has your pulse-racing and your blood chilling right to the very end. It's definately one of the best horror remakes ever made. A sadistic, disturbing and brilliant film. It shakes you right ot the core and fry...( read more)

November 4, 2009I found this paticular movie to be quite disturbing. This could be because I am a young woman, and this thing could happen to someone like me. Sure the plot was a tad bit unrealistic, but the main events were fairly realistic.
A young girl who wants to go out and have fun, ends...( read more) -

November 1, 2009Well this was just total garbage and a completely pointless remake. At least the hippie killers in the original were amusing. ALL the characters in this film acted like dumbasses and I couldn't wait for all of them to be killed off, apart from a few decent kills this film was jus...( read more)

David Edelstein, New York Magazine
Extremely entertaining if you don't mind being morally corrupted at every juncture. full review

Kyle Smith, New York Post
The remake is much glossier but also takes place mostly in real time, using long takes, genuinely disturbing violence and stretches with no dialogue to pin you to the story. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Not only is it plodding and completely predictable, the carnage is rendered slowly and quasi-reverentially, making the whole brutal experience come off like torture porn. full review

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
Audiences with a brain cell left have only one choice: Look for the first exit on the right. full review

Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times
I'm giving it a 2.5 in the silly star rating system and throwing up my hands. full review

Nick Schager, Slant Magazine
Gone is the original's early campiness, here replaced by eye-of-the-storm calm that portends tragedy, as well as its later over-the-top grindhouse gore, now swapped for taut suspense punctuated by vis... full review

I loved the last house on the left!!!! Although I never saw the original....this movie had me talking to the film, and totally in tune with what was going on.If you want to see a movie that keeps you interested....this is the one for you. The rape scene is a bit much, but if you can make it past that....the movie is great?

March 27, 2009I didn't hate it but it's neither better or worse than the original. It's just sort of slightly below average and the ending kills it.
