Returning home from work, a man (Gary Sweet) finds a videotape that has disturbing revelations from his vengeful wife (Helen Buday).

Michael Booth

Denver Post

De Heer offers a wicked twist on household secrets and lies.

Rated: 3/4

John McMurtrie

San Francisco Chronicle

De Heer, who also wrote the script, would have us believe that a wife who's tired of her oblivious bloke of a husband could suddenly become conniving and cruel, coolly defending her actions with twisted logic that's sold as feminism.

Rated: 1/4

Slant Magazine

I Spit on Your Grave gets to the nitty gritty. The equally problematic Alexandra's Project is simply glib.

Rated: 1.5/4

It plays as part thriller, part psycho drama, but really tends to play around with the genres rather than settle in for the ride.

A pyscho-drama that builds the tension with it's claustraphobic setting and simple direction.

Qué padre de familia de dos niñas hace flexiones de brazo en pelotas el día de su cumpleaños? No soy moralista ni mucho menos, pero el desnudo más injustificado del mundo. No ameritaba seguir viendo semejante vulgaridad.

This movie may not be what you think it is . Now if I tell you what it is I'll ruin the movie so im not gonna do that , but I am gonna do this I'm gonna tell you if you're in the mood for a movie that will make you think and open up conversations about marriage then this is the movie for you . Is she going to far? Does he deserve what's happening to him? this movie is far from perfect but there's enough here to get a great conversation going and the ride is satisfying . I think with a little work on the script and an American cast this could make a great remake. Hollywood take a look , you could probably pick this up cheap and turn it into something bigger and better .
