Something you need to have a strong stomach for, if you can bare it, there is actually a moral to it all. Overall, I Spit on Your Grave: Deja Vu is not for everyone, but then again, neither was the original. Together, the entire cast all bring this vile tale into the 21st century. Then there are the gang of antagonists led by the foul mouthed, vicious Becky, energetically portrayed by Maria Olsen ( Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief 2010, Reunion 2015). Beautiful, smart, and unpredictable, suffering her own share of brutally and pain, she proves to be an unbreakable force to be reckoned with. Which leads us to new lead actress, Jamie Bernadette, who is a perfect selection for Christy. A strong woman, you see she has also raised a strong, free-thinking daughter in Christy. There are the quirkier characters, off-beat soundtrack selections, and a steady tension building pace.įurthermore, Camille Keaton’s reprisal of Jennifer Hills is spot-on and immediately re-acquaints you with the character. In fact, remove yourself from the fact that this is a modern sequel with naturally higher quality video, and you would instantly feel it’s a sequel that could fit the bill of a classic late ’70s/early ’80s exploitation Horror film. That in mind, Zarchi does an exceptional job of creating the same uncomfortable atmosphere as his original I Spit on Your Grave.
Amped up and very determined, what exactly do Kevin and Scotty have planned for Jennifer and Christy? More over, what connection do they have to the rapists? Soon enough it is discovered these two seedy characters have come from the very isolated Connecticut countryside town Jennifer survived her brutal gang rape, only to bring her back from New York City to seek vengeance for the murder of her attackers – Johnny, Matthew, Stanley, and Andy. Unfortunately for Jennifer, the past is back to haunt her when some unknown persons named Kevin (Jonathan Peacy: Railway Spine 2016, Opus of an Angel 2017) and Scotty (Jeremy Ferdman: Dominion 2016, Robbery 2018) abduct her along with Christy with nefarious intentions. Also the mother of a beautiful, young lady who is a top model, Christy Hills (Jamie Bernadette: The 6th Friend 2016, 4/20 Massacre 2018), life seems to have turned out pretty well in spite of her suffered trauma many years earlier. Picking up after what can only be assumed at least three decades later, the original rape victim, Jennifer Hills (Camille Keaton: What Have You Done to Solange? 1972, I Spit on Your Grave 1978), is now a successful author and support counselor for other women who have been assaulted. Now, the real question is, does it act as a worthy sequel to the infamous original film? Read on and find out… Now the wait is over and on Tuesday, April 23, 2019, it makes its way to Blu-ray and DVD through Deja Vu LLC. With buzz floating around forums on the internet among astute Horror fans, many wondered if it actually would ever see release. Given a brief historic timeline, quietly, filming for I Spit on Your Grave: Deja Vu began over 5 years ago, and was completed by 2015, yet never saw release. So, is your stomach turning, or are you excited yet? Sure, he has been involved in other films in the I Spit on Your Grave world, acting as an executive producer on the remake and each of its sequels, but I Spit on Your Grave: Deja Vu actually sees Zarchi return to write and direct an official sequel to his original. That is why it comes with great deal of surprise and curiosity that Zarchi decided to go back to the beginning, creating I Spit on Your Grave: Deja Vu. However, you can ask any fan, and they will tell you nothing has ever lived up to the skin-crawling quality of Zarchi’s original.
It even spawned 1993’s unofficial sequel, Savage Vengeance, as well as the 2010 remake, along the follow-ups, 2013’s I Spit on Your Grave ’s I Spit on Your Grave III: Vengeance is Mine. Whatever the opinion might be, I Spit on Your Grave caught a lot of attention, and is without question a cult classic Horror film of the highest order.
