Mini-review: The Last House On The Left (1972)

The Last House On The Left
Directed by Wes Craven



At times excruciating to watch, but completely worth struggling through if you have the stomach for it. Brutal, disturbing, and well-acted (David Hess is a particular standout), Wes Craven started off his directorial career with a bang. Though the tone is a bit uneven, the characterization is lacking, and the soundtrack leaves little to be impressed by, there are few other complaints I can make towards this low budget horror classic. Just don't watch it until you're ready for something that's really messed up.

★★★★★★★★☆☆
