where they are so disgusted at this film that they spend the whole "review" naming and shaming the filmmakers and studio

Dunno about Siskel, but if I remember correctly, Ebert hated slasher films so this isn't much of a suprise

I never got the hate for this movie. I honestly love it!!! I know itβs a movie in bad taste, but somehow this movie has become a tradition for me to watch around Christmas time along with the remake Silent Night. The sequels can fuck off though.

He also gave a glowing review to Last House On The Left. Go figure.

I mean both LHOTL and ISOYG are pretty much cut from the same cloth, so I don't get Ebert's logic on loving one and loathing the other.

The difference for me is that Last House on the Left is done far better and is a clever shock horror twist on The Virgin Spring. It is the poetic nature of the second half of the movie that sets it apart from I Spit on Your Grave. I Spit on Your Grave is exploitation at it's worst. It is not only a very dumb movie, it is a very boring movie.
