@B-Sol, I definitely see what you're saying. The protagonist was much more calculated, much more gruesome and malicious in the set up and execution of her kills. I guess in that regard it was harder to empathize with her. But the film just didn't have the same level of intensity for me. I mean the rape scene was definitely brutal. But in the original, it was an absolute endurance test. Which made the subsequent scenes,and the lulling of her victims, that much more effective, IMHO. Good stuff B!

@The Man Cave, good call. It was more action horror than anything I guess. Like Blade only 10,000 times worse.

I didn't see half of these but they sound pretty bad dude. Ninjas vs. Vampires wasn't a horror film though. More like an action comedy that isn't really serious at all. If I saw Re-Cut, and that was the big "twist", I would've been well pissed.

Happy to be back, Cortez!

I found the new ISOYG to actually be more intense and tough to get through than the original. Even to a fault--for example, the female protagonist is so much more psycho and sadistic that I lost all sympathy for her. Still, I thought it was a better-made film than the Meir Zarchi original.

B-Sol! What up old friend? Good to see you around these parts again.

And you don't want to see any of them unless you hate yourself and want to not get back 14 hours or so of your life :)

The problem that I had with ISOYG, is that none of the antagonists felt as dirty, grimy and ruthless as the original. They didn't feel like a genuine threat. To make matters worse, the lead didn't really evoke any genuine fear and any emotion that was expressed felt completely forced. On a surface level, it was like the original but it was unmatched in intensity. I will say though that the acid bath kill scene was pretty inventive.

WOW. I can proudly say I have never seen any of these films--ironically with one exception, and that would be I Spit on Your Grave. Which I actually liked very much!

I couldn't stand any of the characters and it took waaaaaaaay too long to get to the payoff.

I don't find a single message to the entire affair and IMHO, think any message gleaned is a stretch. I feel a podcast debate coming on....

You don't want to see Creature. Under any circumstances. Not even if you're chemically enhanced.

I liked Sweatshop...even though it was overly cliched.

As for Serbian Film, I'm gonna have to defend it CTK as I named it my #1 film of 2010. Sure it was exploitation vicious but I found some message though it was buried under the newborn porn.

I don't even want to even check out Creature after hearing the garbage about it.
