Product: Day of the Woman (1978)
Rating: 3.0
could have been better but considering the age of the film
Rented this due to the hubbub thinking I would see a suspense filled thriller and got the opposite. I'm guessing the hubbub stems from the rape scene which takes quite a while. She is raped by one man then she flees then gets raped by a second one then again runs only to get caught again and thus violated by a third and so on. After she showers, eats, smokes and changes cothing she sets off to get revenge. The revenge scenes are not very shocking (except she uses her femine wiles to luree the rapists into set up situation which seems odd considering she was just raped by them) considering some of the flicks I have seen lately; however, I am guessing from the age of the film they were once something controversal. I don't mean to be nitpicky but I didn't care for the ending....wouldn't the police be looking for the missing guys especially when the wife was looking for one? Yet, no mention of it.
