I Spit on Your Grave

We've got a first peek at the teaser poster for Anchor Bay’s upcoming release I Spit On Your Grave, the remake based upon the notorious 1978 Meir Zarchi exploitation flick (also known as Day Of The Woman). Hit the jump for the full image.

In the original, Camille Keaton plays Jennifer Hills, an author that escapes to her cabin in the woods only to be attacked, brutalized and raped by a group of the nearby town’s yokels. Left for dead, she nurses herself back to health and seeks out a little payback. (Think a far nastier version of Last House On The Left, this is one of the most unlikely movies this writer ever thought would be remade.)

The new version is helmed by Steven R Monroe (who also directed the Cerina Vincent starrer It Waits) and stars Chad Lindberg, Daniel Franzese, Nightmare On Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors’ Rodney Eastman, Jeff Branson, Saxon Sharbino, Amber Dawn Landrum, Andrew Howard and Sarah Butler in the Jennifer Hill role.

A remake of the controversial 1979 cult classic, I Spit on Your Grave retells the horrific tale of writer Jennifer Hills, who takes a retreat from the city to a charming cabin in the woods to start on her next book.   But Jennifer’s presence in the small town attracts the attention of a few morally deprived locals who set out one night to teach this city girl a lesson.
 
They break into her cabin to scare her.  However, what starts out as terrifying acts of humiliation and intimidation, quickly and uncontrollably escalates into a night of physical abuse and torturous assault.  But before they can kill her, Jennifer sacrifices her broken and beaten body to a raging river that washes her away.
 
As time passes, the men slowly stop searching for her body and try to go back to life as usual.  But that isn’t about to happen.  Against all odds, Jennifer Hills survived her ordeal.  Now, with hell bent vengeance, Jennifer’s sole purpose is to turn the tables on these animals and to inflict upon them every horrifying and torturous moment they carried out on her... only much, much worse.
