Product: Day of the Woman (1978)
Rating: 5.0
A HORROR MOVIE CLASSIC!!!!!!!!!
This movie among a few others is one of my favorite horror films. This movie is about revenge and I also believe it tackles an interesting subject-RAPE. Rape is a subject most often portrayed in a mild manner, however in this film it is portrayed in a very graphic nature. This is something that should not be taking place in the world- but it does.The movie may be offensive to some people because of the brutal and graphic rape sequences.Originally titled Day of the Woman, which fits the film quite well, is unequaled in my opinion by any other film in the genre.This is the most graphic and brutal portrayal of rape EVER brought to the screen.This film is quite good and I highly recommend it to anyone who thinks they can stomach it!!! This film is not for the squeamish.See it at your own risk!!!NOTE: This film was originally released with an X rating because of the graphic rape sequences!!!One must be open-minded when viewing this film. Let's keep in mind that this is ONLY a movie!!! However, it touches base with an important subject- rape. This portrays rape realistically(very violently) and in actuality it is that way. It is mean and hateful and one of the many bad things that take place in the world. So to portray it mildly would be incorrect!!I have never seen a more violent and vile movie, but I give credit where it is due- they got their point across!!!After watching this movie, you will come to know RAPE(as wrong as it is) and you will witness it first hand.Finally, you will never be the same again!! No one should ever have to deal with the pain of rape...but to disregard this movie as garbage is quite wrong!My advice is to view this movie with an open mind!!!!!In doing so, you will see this movie for what it is- ART!!!This movie is a work of art and the message is that rape is a terrible part of our society, but yet it is a part of our society and this movie helps us to understand that rape does happpen and most importantly, that it SHOULDN'T!!!!!
