The movie was well ahead of its time. But in a good way. When I watches it few days ago, it felt like a Netflix movie from last year. Cause on this movie, all men are bad. There are no good ones. I rate it "poor Mathew is not only retarded but has micropenis as well" out of ten

I remember watching this in the '80s, maybe 10 years after its release in theaters. I was quite uncomfortable watching the rape scenes and took great delight watching her exact her revenge. After watching it again (this may be the third time?), it's quite cheesy and not at all discomfiting. Maybe that's due to watching the reboot, which is extremely violent in all aspects. This one is almost laughable in some scenes because of how unbelievable the premise is. I tend to agree with some others who say if you're actually **looking** for the "rape & revenge" type, watch the reboot. This one can scarcely hold your attention by today's standards. I have to admit, though, it was nice seeing some of those throwback 70's cars, clothes, and settings. (Dark panel walls, heavy wooden cabinet stereo with a "record player", '75 Dodge Aspen, god-awful upholstery & furniture, etc 😄).

I recommend watching the remake; the rape is more visceral and the revenge is more drawn-out and violent. And if you're watching a movie in the "rape & revenge" subgenre of horror, those are really the only two things the movie needs to do well.

A classic story of revenge after she is raped. The movie might though be too graphic for some viewers.

Just rape porn with almost no plot and scenes that go on for too long without any payout... May have been ok for the time, its a steaming pile of garbage nowadays
