Dead Northern Presents I Spit On Your Grave (1978)

Dead Northern presents: ‘Nasty Video Club’ - A new monthly series that showcases the dark and grittier side of horror, from the infamous ‘Video nasties’ of the 70s and 80s to the obscure and underrated gems of the VHS era. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to experience these shockingly brilliant and wickedly funny horror classics on the big screen.

June's pick is iconic exploitation-revenge horror 'I Spit On Your Grave' (1978) - This quintessential genre film follows Jennifer Hills, a writer from the bustling borough of Manhattan, looking for some solitude to write her first book. Jennifer’s rented cabin in the rural countryside proves quaint and peaceful until a local group of barbaric misfits line her up for the most disturbing fate. In what can only be described as the unholiest actions, the gang repeatedly assault her and leave her for dead. A simple revenge story, 'I Spit on Your Grave' remains one of the chief instigators of this gruelling subgenre.
