The Last House on the Left (Iliadis 2009)
This episode we discuss Iliadis’ 2009 remake of Craven’s 1972 iconic film The Last House on the Left. This film is situated in the context of the 2000s reboots of many first wave horror films. In modernizing the classic in terms of style, the film unfortunately also corrupted and perverted the progressive ideology as well as polishing the raw material. Doing so removed precisely what made the original film the classic it remains.
