By honing the jagged edges of Meir Zarchi's cheap and nasty rape-revenge shocker into slick entertainment, this unwelcome remake improves technically on the 1978 original, while retaining all that was sleazy and repellent...

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Neither boring enough to qualify as pornography nor vital enough to generate a controversy.
An attempt to trade on its predecessor's reputation without really grappling with the questions it raises, Monroe's version merely seems shallow, cynical and extremely ugly.
Female-empowerment fantasy or just plain prurience, Grave is extremely efficient grindhouse.
I Spit on Your Grave is exploitation pure and simple. But it's artistically redeeming exploitation. If you can handle it, see it.
