That hallway scene is bonkers. The way the scene breathes, stops and starts. It's dope.
Watched Infernal Affairs yesterday. Better than The Departed.

The version of ISOYG (old one) I have is the cut version - prob the one you'll have seen - but I've been holding out for an uncut version before I watched. I like them all uncut.
I've got the newer one here, surprisingly I haven't watched this film before tbh. Got about 3-4 hours before Mrs Lars is home so might throw that on now...

ISOYG
The version I've got is the uncut Ultimate Edition complete with booklet and Day Of The Woman poster, I checked the running time on my shit and it says 200 mins approx so I'm hoping that's with all the extras/interviews etc and not the actual running time of the feature (3+ hours WTF!?) This is one of the most notorious of the original "video nasties" so I was really looking forward to watching it. The basic premise is a female short story writer heads to a cabin in the woods for the summer, to attempt to write her first novel. Once there she runs into these four local yokel redneck types, and one simple one in particular who is a virgin who obv likes this New York writer chick. About 25 mins into the film, the four rednecks capture and drag the broad of to a deserted place and the three guys hold her down as one rapes her. It's over pretty quick. They try to encourage the virgin simpleton to take a turn, but he refuses before letting her go. She eventually reaches a further secluded place, still naked, where the four capture her again. Raping her a second time before driving off in their speedboat and leaving her for dead. In fairness the rape scene here didn't shock me as much as the one shown in Cannibal Holocaust. The chick is then scene making her way to her cut, and reaching for a telephone. The four redneck locals turn up again though, just when you think she's survived the ordeal... and after some liquid self-confidence, the retarded yokel Matthew duly takes his turn to rape the woman whilst egged on by his friends as she lies blooded and beaten. The retarded Matthew is sent back in with a knife and instructions to kill her, he coats the knife in her blood to pretend he has but he hasn't gone through with it... The four men then escape on their speedboat and leave the bitch for dead. Two weeks pass, and the men head on a reconnaissance mission to check on the body... only to find the chick is alive and well. They beat the shit out of the idiot sent to kill her and send him packing. The woman is then out for revenge and hunts the loser rapists down to kill them all. The first she catches up with is the simpleton Matthew, who's death is lulzy to me. So far stretched. He basically is tempted to try and sleep with her again, only during intercourse she slips a noose over his neck and he's quickly suspended from a tree branch until he dies. Who would even think of that?! LOL stupidest death ever. The guy had a knife he dropped, stabbing him with that would have been so much easier. It's laughable to watch how he's despised of. Oh well, one moron down, three to go... The next is the apparent ring leader of the group, again tempted by sex with the woman gang raped by them earlier. Long story short, he talks to her about the rape like it was all her fault for dressing seductively etc - and gets him back to hers under a pretence of a bath. She reveals here that she's killed Matthew the moron and sneaks a knife out to castrate the ring leader guy in the bath LOL you don't see a whole lot other than blood covering the guys body, but it's more about what she does after it, locking the bathroom door on him and cranking up classical music to drown out his screams. It's pretty hard faced and relentless of her. There's a LOT of blood for her to clean up later on! Why she didn't just shoot the motherfucker in the face when she had the gun is anyone's guess, but I'm almost glad he died the way he did. It was a bit more sadistic and thought out that way, there's no way in hell you wouldn't just pop him while you had the chance and be done with him though. It hurts the plot slightly, for me, as it's just implausible to act that way. The chick catches up to rapist #3 and #4 - dude catching an axe to back of his skull, before the last seems to get caught in the propellor of the speedboat and dies? It all ends a bit fast, for my liking. There's nothing really "resolved" other then she gets her revenge and... that's it! I expected a bit more, more of a payoff maybe. More of a conclusion to it? I dunno. I think this far from the movie it's portrayed as. The rape scenes aren't even THAT bad, especially given films like Irreversible, and before people chime in about the era ISOYG is from... I said earlier in the review that I personally felt the rape scene in CH was more shocking and effective, which is the same era. I dunno, this is a decent flick, I maybe would watch again buy it's definitely not one of the most sickening or disturbing IMO. It's basically a revenge thriller, and not even a particularly well done one, I'd seriously advise anyone to peep "Deliverance" with Burt Reynolds in before this. Similar type film, I guess, and it even has a rape scene more shocking than the one here - plus it's build up, characters, and whole feel are done better than this was here. Check that shit out!

ISOYG Remake
This remake is more like it. More of a backstory, the rednecks/gas station workers are given more reason behind raping the bitch. There's music to help put you on edge throughout, the first has nothing like that to build up suspense. There's more tension to this one and that's also a plus, more scenes to make you jump that work. I had this turned up way too loud following the low audio on the original I'd watched just beforehand. There's a real menace to their performance. The scene making her suck the gun is pretty dark, but I hated the clichéd falling over as she run away... Bitch ran straight into a psycho Sheriff, this version def reminded me more of Deliverance with the whole making her squeal shit. There's only so many retarded sex faces I can watch in one day haha! The second rape where they sodomise her feels too short in comparison to the originals... but the after scene where she's walking and trembling and lost really adds to it and the whole feeling of how horrific the ordeal would be. I think the decision to have her drop in the water was a plus point on the originals plot, as you're not going to trust the most retarded person in the group to ensure the victim is dead, are you? The first had too many unbelievable plot holes that stood out like sore thumbs. I was glad to see they went against that in the remake. Matthew the moron gets disposed of in a similar way to the first film, only not as over the top, which is a good thing - but this version maintains the sadistic side to the woman which I was pleased about. The revenge part is ultimately what makes the movie and gives it it's payoff. The rest is all a setup leading to those points, essentially. Rapists 2 and 3 get disposed of a little too easy for my liking with the wooden bat, and the bathtub torture thing seemed too elaborate a setup for the woman to construct in the middle of nowhere. The eye hooks to the face as well just seemed too elaborate to me. It was unrealistic, maybe not as much so as the first movie so it's an improvement on that I guess but it still felt a little out of place to me - yeah I love revenge shit, but it all felt a little Saw-esque what she was doing. I don't even mind over the top shit, I just felt the Lye and Crows ish was too convenient to have all the necessary crap lying around to set those up. The crow with the eyeball is a sick scene though! The tooth removal shit is nasty too but again, a bit too elaborate to have the guy suspended with ropes and pulleys from the ceiling and blah blah blah... The castration scene to the remake is way better than the original though, and a nice nod to the original so I really enjoyed that aspect. The bitch feeds the guy his own cock haha! I completely forgot about the Sheriff in this one, he's still alive at the end, and his death is pretty fucking spectacular. Again, it's another Saw/Hostel torture porn like setup. this time with a shotgun stuck up his ass that the woman rapes him anally with before the rig she's set up kills him by blowing out his ass and the same bullet hiring the retarded Matthew on the other side of the room LOL The movie ends there with the woman smirking, not too far dissimilar to the original, but the select few changes it made WERE for the better - though I still think they could have done these even better to IMO. The remake is a pretty solid movie in it's own right, def worth the watch fellas. It maybe doesn't rate too highly on my "most disturbing" list, but I'm not really into the torture porn genre and this second one tends to fall into that if I'm honest. Way more so than the first. There's elements in both versions I prefer over their namesakes, oddly enough the "Matthew" character in the first I enjoyed more, where the remakes was the more authentic acting. The methods of revenge in the first seemed way over the top in places, the retards death in the first being completely nonsensical - so the second wins out in instances like that but both versions revenge seemed OTT if I'm honest... that's what people paid for though, I guess? Overall, I'd go with the remake in truth. Personally though I'd like to see the whole thing remade again, with the revenge sequences made more believable and less torture chamber looking.
