'Revenge' (2017, La vengeance - Coralie Fargeat)
Three arrogant corporate bigshots take a break from servicing their shallow families to hunt game in a desert canyon. Mistress Jen (Matilda Lutz) spoils the party.
The visceral rape revenge thriller 'Revenge' is a hard, minimalistic variation on Richard Connell's influential, oft-filmed story 'The Most Dangerous Game' (1924). The story frame is stripped down to the bare essentials, showcasing a performance of resolve, resource and intensity from Matilda Lutz who initially channels Sue Lyon in 'Lolita' (1962) before transforming into Sigourney Weaver in 'Aliens' (1986). The bloody climax is well executed by director Coralie Fargeat.
