SAVAGE VENGEANCE

By Jimmy Squarejaw 

*WARNING*

All movies reviewed for SUNDAY SNUFF contain graphic depictions that may include rape, live animals being murdered, and extreme gore.  None of the writers condone such acts we just watch this shit. 

This week I’ll chat about the illegitimate sequel to I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE called SAVAGE VENGEANCE.  This little shot-on-video gem is directed by the shot-on-video maestro Donald Farmer and comes in at a staggering 65 minutes.  It’s one of the releases I picked up a few months back from the Uneasy Archive and I’ll say this right up front, I love this flick.

The movie starts off with bang, a gangbang that is!  A group of four sleazy looking guys just happen across Jennifer, who is reading a magazine peacefully on the side of a river in the middle of nowhere.  Well, just like in real life guys who roll in groups of four act on their impulses and decide to rape the complete stranger.  Now unlike I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE, these guys keep all of their clothes on and all of hers except a shirt rip to expose her boobs.  They have their way with her and split the scene probably to go buy Metallica’s boxset, Live Shit: Binge & Purge! 

After the rape we get a “5 years later” screen that leads us to being smack dab in the middle of a college class where the rape and subsequent murder of all the rapists is a hot topic on the discussion block.  As the situation is discussed with the early 90’s college students the movie bounces through quick little clips of Jennifer killing all the rapists.  After class Jennifer, who looks great and not the slightest bit damaged, plans to go on a little trip with her friend Sam instead of finals and journey off to another rape ready cabin.  Of course the young, bright, women attract the attention of another group of scumbag rapists who work and hang around the local convenience mart. These fellas track Sam down first to rape and kill, then they set their sights on Jennifer who gets another vaginal dose of pungent smelling loin juice.  Well, that’s when the “Savage” comes into the story.  Of course she makes her way through the group, you'll have to see for yourself, and the finale scene involving a chainsaw is AWESOME. 

This is a great flick for anyone who digs shot-on-video movies, other than that most of the people watching it would turn it off.  I love the pace and runtime of the movie, not because I wanted it to be over but because there is literally no down time during the movie and it entertained the shit out of me!  The movie is available on DVD but it’s out of print and there are a few different VHS versions out there.  For those of you who can track it down pick it up, it’s worth it! 

Blake and Jimmy’s Extreme-O-Gauge!

Realistic Gore: 2 out of 5, low budget effects but there are some goodies in there.

Rape: 3 out of 5, yes getting raped by 7 or 8 guys in one movie is a lot.  But it’s all pretty tame and the only shock is a few sets of boobs.

Animal Death: 0 out of 0.

Necrophilia: 0 out of 0, but that would be cool if Jennifer raped one of the corpses!

Torture: 2 out of 5, little bit of torturous revenge.

Overall Movie:  4 out of 5, entertaining low budget flick but everyone might not be a fan.
