I spit on your grave DVD

To anyone who has a copy.

I'm interested in picking up a copy for my DVD collection but on the sites I visit to buy it, the reviews say that the quality is crappy. Is it really bad? Is there a remastered version around?

thanks.
Beep boop. I'm a bot.

    The copy I have is bad. As an aside, I find it a really disturbing film.

    The Millennium Edition from Elite has commentaries and a widescreen transfer - so may be the best you'll get.

    It was a low budget 70s grindhouse rape/revenge flick though, so I wouldn't expect to suddenly find a sparkling blu-ray copy knocking around.

    Mind you, gotta agree it's not a film I'm in a rush to ever see again.

    Go on, get Key Largo instead - that's some real fucking quality.

    Cool, thanks a bunch Jim. :thumb:

    I can't imagine it being fully remastered because if its as grim as people say I dunno if any company would touch it.

    Theres a copy in my uni library but I dunno if thats a film I should watch in public.

    Ummm, well, perhaps... err...

    NO

    Really not a film for watching in the library, at all.

    I learnt my lesson of what not to watch when I picked up in the realm of the senses and not knowing what it was...

    Lolz - accidental hard-core japansese art house movies... never a good mistake to make

    I thought the recommendation by Madonna seemed odd... :o

    I've just read the write-up on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Spit_On_Your_Grave). Nasty. :eek2:

    Ive watched a load of shite films in my time and its one of my rules never to turn them off unless they really suck ass, this one sucked ass.

    I honestly don't see the appeal of this film, did i miss something?

    The main problem (aside from the general shitness of the film) is the sound quality. I had to have the volume turned up quite high to hear the dialogue over the background noise. I suspect this is more of a sound recording issue than any issue with the DVD transfer. Having said that, it's watchable, but it's the sort of film you'd be disappointed about spending a lot of money on, so I'd just get it out of the library or try and find it online. My DVD was £3, so I wasn't that bothered. But your uni library should let you borrow it.

    Thanks for the heads up.

    I can't take the films home. You have to watch them on a TV in the library.
