Yesterday I had the misfortune to watch this movie with my siblings. The history is a bit funny. A friend of my sister recommended this movie calling it horror. I suppose the violence was too much & can be described as horrifying, which is why this movie can be called horror. Well there is no element of a genuine horror movie in it though. Anyway, the story line was okay. If you have nothing else to do & you don’t have any other DVD, then you can watch it.
My brother also pointed out that it was not the last house on the left; it was the only house. Anyway, Tony Goldwyn has been a cool dad in this movie. There’s one good thing about this film. You know nothing is useless. It forces us to ask this question: if bad people hurt your loved ones, what would you do? To what extent can you go to avenge your loved ones?
In the movie, both the parents kill those 3 people & I guess it was the right thing. We all have heard that an eye for an eye would make the world go blind. Although we are not purblind as yet, but people are stumbling every where! And in almost every corner, someone is ever ready to lecture you. Revenge has always been taken as a negative thing. In Utopia, anyone can afford to be civilized. We live in the real world where ugliness can be seen almost everywhere. Revenge may not seem to be the right option, but when someone rapes your daughter, what step would you take? Would you let the bastards get away with it? Can you forgive such people? We all know the answer; it’s another thing many would prefer to stay quiet about it or pretend to be civilized.
