Last House on the Left (2009)

Forgive me if this was a previous thread or a thread somewhere else....

but I just saw the trailer for this remake of Craven's introductory movie and got all hot n bothered! I love the original.. very 70's? yes! It is! But I don't care.. it was a great story and I fell in love with it.. and now that it's being updated and looks even MORE suspenseful... I can't wait!!

I wasn't particulary a fan of the first remake from Craven but will be checking the new one out, looks decent. I also adore the guy, can never remember his name, who plays the lead bad guy in this remake and he was one of the terminators in Sarah Connor Chronicles.

I don't know. Maybe it's just me but i see no reason why this movie has to be Remade. I don't say this because im against remakes. I'm actually a fan of remakes. You don't have to remake, Last house on the Left to make the same movie. Like my opinion on the Karate Kid remake the subject material in, Last House on The Left is so broad. Girls are kidnapped and tortured....,this is is a formula that you can copy without remaking the movie. Of course the draw may not be as broad without the title but thats never stopped the dozens of other movies that copied the formula. I'll still see this movie because i'm a fan of realistic violence in film but i have to admit that the original never did much for me, other than a few memorable scenes.

The first one was so hampered by the 70's, ya know? You just couldn't show what REALLY happened... now a days, you can get away with showing all the blood, gore, violence (torture, rape, what have you)

and yes, you can get a film with girls getting kidnapped and tortured in all sorts of movies, but really... what the story is about (what people are missing) is the parents.... it's not about the girls, not about the people that abducted them... it's about the parents and how the get their revenge... that's why I enjoyed the film so much... that's the true "Story" behind it.. the thugs went to the wrong house... "which house?"

The last house on the left......... wink

I think Craven's is a gem and a fascinating film. Not against this remake because there are improvements to be had over the 70's one.

This remake looks like it will hold its own against the original. Craven's film isn't that good.

Very true.. I mean.. Craven's wasn't the best out there but it wasn't terrible... it fit the scheme for that era... I think..

LHOTL was very controversial for it's time. By today's standard's, it's pretty tame. I think that a remake could be, somewhat, interesting. I'll wait until DVD, however. I rarely go to the movie theater anymore.

Saw it tonight. Wasn't bad. Better than I was expecting, it was actually pretty well made.

Kinda lost its way towards the end, though. Like they were too afraid to have the parents go all the way, which was too bad.

All the websites I frequent and trust seem to be liking it, especially commenting on the three leads of the family. It's not out till September here in Britain!! So probably will be a dvd watch for me when it's out in another country.

The previews make it look like the daughter lived. If that's the case, I don't even want to see this cop out version.
