Stometer Save your money for something good and enjoyable

VeteranLight I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Console best movie i've ever seen.

Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

ManBehindTheMask63 Just recently watched the supposed "uncut" version from 1980 released by White Knight Video. It still features no nudity, no gore, and I whole heartedly doubt there is even an existing uncut version.As for the movie itself..."Savage Encounter" aka "Demon Lust" is a dull, unimaginative, and cheaply made rip off of "Straw Dogs". The film is shot and edited competently enough, but the film tends to drag and bore (even with an 80 minute runtime!). The film's violence and "rape" (which occurs off screen) are childish and non-dramatic. I'd say pass this turd up and don't believe the hype about an "uncut" version. This movie sucks either way.I gave it a 3 because I liked the film's musical score and a scene in which one of the vagrant's tickle torcher the husband with a flower!

HumanoidOfFlesh A woman who was sexually molested as a child and her husband are harassed by a couple of backwoods hicks with rape on their minds.The female victim is raped by two hillbillies and the man is treated like a dog and collared to a tree.Her husband seeks vengeance on hicks,who violated his wife's body.Sleazy and depraved rape and revenge flick with truly seedy villains.It was actually released in Poland on VHS many years ago by Video Rondo under the title "Demon Lust".Unfortunately that version was heavily cut,so be sure to check out "Savage Encounter" instead.The film is nicely shot and well-acted.I dig such obscure cinema,so if you have 80 minutes to kill "Savage Encounter" will leave you entertained.The current rating is criminally low,so I'll give this sickie 8 out of 10.

GIALLO-1 First I would like to say to anyone interested in obtaining this film, you must find the uncut version, namely 'Savage Encounter' and not the cut 76 minute USA version known as 'Demon Lust'. Secondly, you must understand that there is certainly a demon in this film, that being the demon of the mind. Thirdly and most importantly this is without a doubt one wild and sleazy celluloid sickie that will highly offend some viewers but for the most part ' savage encounter ' has everything any grind house enthusiast wants: torture / kidnapping /reveng theme / etc. Not to be missed by fans of sleazy psycho sexual horror. We give it 10 stars. Like I said before, it's definitely for genre fans, something the previous commenter evidently know's nothing about. Maybe the fact that it sat in the trunk of his car for 2 YEARS tell's us something else about the previous reviewer...snicker.

yougotrealugly First, I'd like to point something out to anyone who's making the same mistake I did. Even though the copy of this video that I purchased was titled "Demon Lust", the film doesn't have any demons in it, or anything supernatural at all, for that matter. I guess that "Demon" is supposed to be an adjective, but the only lust that appears in the film is far from "demonic". In any case, this film was obviously made by someone (Bernard Buys) who was deeply impacted by the much more infamous "I Spit On Your Grave". This film is a direct retread of 'Grave', except that all the violence against the main female character happens off screen. The plot then revolves around the husband seeking a very level-headed sort of revenge against the drifters who attacked his wife. He claims that he's not going to the police to avoid "scandal", but the more obvious motive is that he hadn't been allowed be with his wife physically, and he was jealous. Anyway, "I Spit On Your Grave" minus violent "lust" scenes might make for a more socially acceptable movie, but there is nothing else in it to hold the film together, or make it interesting in the least. There isn't even anything here for the type of people who get off on this kind of thing. Avoid.
