    Absolute crap.

    I like B-grade horror movies. This movie does not merit a "B". Nor "C". Nor "Q". See where I am going? I'd give more details about what precisely was bad about this, but my mind is blocking most of this steaming turd from my memory as a defensive measure. (I defer to the gentleman's review above.

    Well put, sir!)

    The people who made this movie took a page from Ed Wood in that this movie is not about the details. It's about a 'big picture' that never seems to materialize. It is an amateur Goth/S&M piece that was scripted entirely by phrases beginning with "...and then wouldn't be sooo cool if...". A lot of nothing happens. It's like waiting behind a convenience store waiting for a blind date to arrive would be like if said date never existed and was merely a prank on you by people who hate you a lot. After you realized your mistake, the pain and ridicule are already firmly in place.

    This was the least enjoyable movie...ever.

    Just Torture Porn

    A variation of the more famous cult title, I Spit on Your Grave, which had a woman seeking revenge on her rapists, one by one, in bloody fashion, including the castration scene in a bath tub. The aforementioned is a masterpiece compared with this mess.

    Sandy(Emily Hack) is the woman wronged, by everybody, it seems, and so she goes on a sadistic rampage. She shoots one of the men in the balls; ouch! Bad man number two is burned with a cigarette and forced to defecate, and then forced like Fido, to have his face shoved into it; bad dog. He is having a really bad day, which ends with an angry Sandy turning Lizzie Borden with an axe.

    The last guy gets to watch our heroine pleasure herself with a broom handle, and then she uses it on him in a very unnatural manner; holy s***, all we have here is torture porn. No budget, bad acting, and a supposed eight day shoot, make I Spit... a waste of seventy one minutes of my life.

    Crimany it's bad.

    Picture the fugly annoying goth kids from college in a scat film, throw in a pinch of story and a whole lot of awful acting, and you are still not even close to how bad this movie is.

    Shot badly, bad effects, worse acting. Contrived attempt at shocking horror. Everyone I've showed this to gets kinda depressed watching it. The sex scenes are disturbing, not necessarily for their content, but more because they're just something you want to end as soon as possible. The last sex scene is just foul, even before she gets to the guy.

    I'm one of those people that loves to watch movies that people hate, which is why I picked this one up. But for your own sake, save yourself the time and avoid this abhorrence. It's that bad. I literally threw it in the garbage.

    This is an awful film.

    I watch bad movies.

    This movie is not good enough to be a bad movie. Not an ounce of humor, not an ounce of talent throughout.

    I am LAZY.

    Usually, I see a bad movie and curse. This was so bad, I actually made a review to try and save others from the completely boring mess I fell victim to.

    I am smashing my copy of this movie.

    It's too lame even to use clear a room. So boring. Watch 'Bloodsucking Freaks' or 'Shock, shock, shock' for absolute crap that has some merit as entertainment. This sludge looks awful, is awful, and whoever made it should feel awful.

    I Spit on Your Corpse

    Am I wrong,or is the 2007 version just a rip-off of the original? I have to ask because the DVD I just bought is one of the worst films I have ever seen.....bad acting,bad editing etc....the only "exploitation " aspect here is how we were ripped off for our money buying this piece of crap. It is nothing more than a light-weight porn flick...no real gore, no scary images, just a cheaply done bit of garbage. If anyone wants to see an excellent film with no name actors,some slimy gore and a decent storyline...get Baby Blood...also done on a cheap budget but well made...and an actual story too!I Spit was a waste of money but I'll keep it just for a laugh....it is pathetic! New comment....Sept 3.....I'll keep this film forever just because it it SOOOOO bad it's almost good....in a really bad way....the worst acting ever...a real crap-movie classic!
