It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

The poster says it all: "The movie that has no limits of evil." When people talk about grimy, evil pictures, this is the one they're talking about. Quentin Tarantino called this "the roughest revenge movie ever," and that's including I Spit on Your Grave and Last House on the Left, one would suppose. After all, Elle Driver in his Kill Bill directly takes her look from this film, with outfits that match her eyepatch.Frigga (Christina Lindberg, Teenage Playthings, Exposed) is a simple farm girl who's been silent since she was a kid, thanks to being raped. Her loving parents spend all of their money to try and get her voice back with speech therapy. One day, she misses the bus and ends up going on a date with Tony, who seems like a real ladykiller. Turns out he is — he gets her hooked on heroin, telling her that she needs it every 48 hours if she wants to live. To pay him back, she has to become a prostitute for him.Frigga — possibly named for Odin's wife (and Odin is one eyed, after all) — cannot be tamed. She escapes twice and scars the face of the first john who tries to sleep with her. As punishment, Tony takes her eye — a scene shot with the cadaver of a young girl who had committed suicide. Remember what I said above — this film takes no prisoners.Tony has sent a letter home to her parents, telling them she hated them and would never be back. In answer, they both commit suicide. Add in the death of Frigga's only friend, fellow prostitute Sally, and it's time for revenge. She starts charging more for whatever her clients want to do to her, all so that on every Monday, she can learn the skills she'll need to kill everyone and everything.What follows is a leather overcoat clad Lindberg — a gorgeous creature of pure hatred and violence — destroying everything. Even two cops who try and take her out are decimated in slow motion in a tour de force scene that Rob Zombie could only dream of shooting — sound dropped out, violence given to full display. The film flirts with art while keeping both feet mired in exploitation — there's a lesbian scene and in some versions, a hardcore insert — but gorgeous shots of police sirens with electronic music droning mark this as just as much masterpiece as masturbatory fodder.Finally, after killing all of her clients, Frigga challenges Tony to a duel. Getting the better of him, she buries him in a hole, ties a rope around his neck and like some cowboy in a spaghetti western, makes a horse run away, killing him. She watches, mute, as the man who ruined her life finally dies. What can be left after this? She has become Shiiva, Death, the destroyer of worlds. Her family destroyed. Her friend dead. Even the police, who could not help her, dead at her hand. She drives the cop car into the distance, sirens blaring as wind and sound fills the soundtrack.This isn't a movie for everybody. But it's why I love movies — it's an experience. I can't recommend it to everyone, but if you're here and reading this, you know that you'll probably love it. Heck — you've probably already seen it.Lindberg — who claims herself that she was a horrible actress — goes all in here. She injected water and saline into her veins for the heroin shots. She learned how to fight. Hell, she got arrested after practicing shooting her shotgun — in public no less. She owns the screen in this.Read more at http://bit.ly/2iqIpEn

The 1973 violent Swedish revenge film Thriller: A Cruel Picture, also known as They Call Her One Eye, greatly influenced Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill and you can see why even with only one eye.The film has rather racy full-on penetration sex scenes, which were apparently popular at the time, done by body doubles, they actually work and match well intercut with the real actors performing simulated sex in something other than the usual dull missionary position movie sex scenes.It's a quiet film with little or no score, set in a Swedish small town with perhaps the world's most ineffective police force and most unobservant neighbors ever, pay no attention to that shotgun killing across the road.Gaps in logic galore in the story of an innocent young ginger girl left mute by a childhood rape who becomes addicted to heroin by a vicious pimp and enslaved into prostitution before honing her skills in hand-to-hand combat, guns and stunt driving before at long last taking her bloody revenge.Ridiculous yet one of the better cult films I've seen.

there's not much to say about this movie, i've seen bad movies, really bad movies, movies that are so bad that makes me laugh, Plan 9 from outer space, the night of the ghouls, movies that are so bad that pisses me off, and then this crap. i think this is the WORST movie i've ever seen in my whole life, i wish there was a way to remove the awful memory that comes to my mind every time somebody talks about a bad movie, saying "hey have you seen this (random film) movie?", is really bad, then i think "you lucky bastard, you know nothing about bad movies". there are parts that makes this abomination less... unwatchable, but i don't want to spoil, oooh no, because you can not have just a bite of this excrement cake, you gotta swallow it all. as a personal recommendation, do NOT watch this movie (this thing that barely qualifies as a movie). but if you want to waste your time, grab a couple of beers... or maybe a 6 pack, call a friend that is as mentally screwed up as you are (because if you actually WANT to watch this, then there's no other explanation besides being mentally screwed up) and give yourself a bitter rotten-excrement feast watching this movie.

As many into the exploitation/horror and revenge genre has heard of this Swedish delight. Long before IKEA became the Swedish thing there was an director, Vibenius, who made classics in the genre but had one problem, distribution. After Swedish MPAA saw the movie they really mashed it up by cutting it. And the cut version became available everywhere except for France were the uncut version somehow appeared in dirty cinema's. After a fight for the rights of the movie and some bankruptcy of dealers the movie came in hands of Synapse who restored the movie and brought it out in the cut version and in a 25000 limited edition in his full glory with a lot of extra's. This version I have. The uncut version is somehow what Last House On The Left should have been, normally it would have been a XXX movie but no actor agreed to have intercourse on screen. So it happened that LHOTL became what it is today. So you can say that this is what LHOTL should have been, with full frontal nudity of Christina Lindberg, coming out of soft core nudies. It even contains the the live action in front of the camera but so it was labeled under porn. In fact it never was, it became on of the first roughie revenge flicks loved by many as like Tarantino. The storyline is simple, child got raped and in her teens drugged and raped again, so she takes revenge but when she takes revenge it's all filmed in slomo, well done for the time being. Catch yourself a copy because the price for a copy is rising.
