The movie does wield crude and considerable power.

Reviews for I Spit on Your Grave
Still an effective and shocking bit of revenge cinema...

Salivating gore with classic title.
09/10/06
A montagem peca pela falta de ritmo e as mortes são patéticas, mas os dois primeiros atos do filme chocam pela intensidade com que retratam a violência sofrida pela personagem de Keaton, que, aliás, oferece uma performance visceral.

Simply another crudely made, explicitly violent ‘70s-era exploitation flick.
10/10/05
This is one exploitation horror movie that lives up to its classic title.

There is a successful motive at work in I Spit on Your Grave, though its methods of employing it are questionable. By more common standards it is morally reprehensible.

I spit on this garbage. Two kids with a camcorder in a garage could do better.

While it delivers up the requisite amounts of violence and nudity to satisfy the requirements of the genre, it also has an edgy and decidedly anti-rape sentiment

Considering how many powerful people detested this movie, it's a testament to the film that it still even exists.
03/30/03
...mostly dull and ridiculously over-the-top.

This brutal, explicit rape-revenge movie isn't for the faint of heart, but it's told with an eerie minimalism that marks it a grim, disturbing B-movie portrait of civilization’s abuse at the hands of savagery, and its subsequent, equally barbarous revenge
01/20/03
I Spit On Your Grave is more an over-hyped legend than a powerful motion picture -- it is less something to experience than something to talk about.
01/02/03
More boring than anything else
