The Last House On The Left (1972 Film)
''The Last House on the Left'' is a 1972 American exploitation horror film written and directed by Wes Craven in his directorial debut and produced by Sean S. Cunningham. It stars Sandra Peabody, Lucy Grantham, and David Hess. The film is about Mari Collingwood, a hippie teenager who gets abducted, raped, and tortured by a fugitive family on her seventeenth birthday. When they unwittingly seek refuge in her home, the killers face the vengeance of her parents. The film was controversial upon release for its marketing—with a tagline "Can a movie go too far?," advertising its violence. Craven based the film on a Swedish film, '' The Virgin Spring'' (1960), directed by Ingmar Bergman, which in turn is an adaptation of a Swedish ballad, " Töres döttrar i Wänge." Craven developed the film with producer Sean S. Cunningham after working with him on ''Together'' (1971) and once the filmmakers obtained small funding from Hallmark Releasing to make another feature film. Craven ...
