I Spit on Your Grave (1978)

The ‘70s were a time of exploration and expression, especially in the fields of love and sexuality, but audiences felt this horror film took it way too far, even back then. 

Not only did critics rate this movie as simply adequate in production, but the over-the-top assault scene that many feel went on far too long stunned audiences in a way that wasn’t appreciated in 1978, let alone now.
