How Far Would You Go? The Last House On The Left Hits DVD And Blu-Ray
Most people would throw some punches if a buddy got one in the face during a bar fight, but The Last House on the Left takes the concept of protecting the ones you love to a completely different level. Would you go as far as the Collingwoods to seek revenge? Find out when Universal Home Studios releases The Last House on the Left on DVD and Blu-Ray August 18th.
A weekend at their vacation house in the woods turns deadly when Mari Collingwood (Sara Paxton) drives into town to meet a friend. The two girls get caught up with a group of drifters and endure a horrendous night of rape and torture. After leaving the girls for dead the group tries to take shelter from a storm and winds up knocking on the Collingwoods’ door. It isn’t until Mari manages to make it home that her parents (Monica Potter and Tony Goldwyn) put the pieces together and realize they’re harboring the people responsible for their daughter’s dreadful condition.
I don’t care how many terrible horror films are made and how many of them are remade to make a quick buck; I can’t resist them. Yes, sometimes the sadistic nature of the killings can be taken a bit too far, but what do you expect? The horror genre relies on the director and writer’s abilities to create new and innovative ways to hack up the cast.
You’ll have the chance to see the truly gory details Dennis Illiadis, Adam Alleca, Carl Ellsworth and Wes Craven came up with because both the DVD and Blu-ray come with the theatrical version of the film and the unrated cut. They both also have some deleted scenes and “A Look Inside” featurette. Exclusive to the Blu-ray edition, which will only be available for a limited time, are a digital copy of the film and access to BD-Live. A little less than what I’d expect from most horror films, but as long as it’s quality material, it’ll do. It’s too bad there’s no featurette paying homage to the 1972 original.
The DVD will cost you $29.98 and if you have to see the violence in the clarity of BD hi-def, it’ll be $39.98.
