The Last House on the Left (1972)

The Blind Rage Podcast is using a sticky hand to wave a fond farewell to Sleazy ‘70s month. With its graphic depictions of violence and sexual assault, Wes Craven’s original 1972 THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT outraged a nation. Surprisingly, Roger Ebert, a man known for being incredibly vocal about his revulsion for all things horror, gave the film a near-perfect score in his original review. Though condemned by many, the film went on to become a cult classic, inspiring endless copy cats, as well as an official (2009) and an unofficial (David DeFalco’s CHAOS) remake, both of which have been featured on past episodes of the podcast.
