For this reason, I have to say this is why the remake is superior. When it comes to revenge, a straight trade is the best way to go. She manipulated the men and made them think someone else was messing with them, and used that misdirection to maneuver around her assaulters.

Sarah Butler’s Jennifer used a different approach. Camille Keaton’s Jennifer used seduction to lure the men into a false sense of security before killing each one. Now that we have the controversial subject out of the way, it’s time to focus on the best parts of the films – the lead women’s revenge! It’s very interesting to note the different ways that these two exact their revenge. When it comes to these horrific scenes, the remake gets the edge for toning down the brutality of the scenes themselves. I’ve said it many times and I’ll say it again – MOVIES AREN’T RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR ACTIONS! The only thing I’ll say is that films don’t make people do a damn thing. Many times, I’ve heard complaints that the I Spit On Your Grave movies “glorify” rape, and that these films are going to encourage men to go out and assault women. Now we come to the controversial subject that steers people away from these films… the assault scenes. You knew more about the characters and the way their specific traits and quirks were used against them. In the remake, one big difference is the fact that each person had their own distinct personalities. They all treated Jennifer as an object that they could do whatever they wanted to, and they all deserved their comeuppance.

When it comes to their revenge scenes, those personalities changed drastically! They really lost themselves in their characters, and their performances are impeccable! It’s impossible to choose a winner because they were so different, and they both are completely badass!Īs for antagonists Andy, Stanley, Johnny Matthew, and (remake) sheriff Storch, it’s impossible to choose the most despicable of the bunch. Sarah Butler brought a shy, introverted writer trait to her role. Camille Keaton portrayed her character in a fun, charismatic light. I personally love both of these portrayals, but for different reasons.

Though should she fail in that respect, you can be sure she'll exact the same amount of vengeance against this new crew of villains that she did with the old crew.Let’s start with the main protagonists, Jennifer Hills. Forty years is a hell of a span to hold a grudge, but surely both sides will come to the table with negative baggage as Christy will do what she has to protect her daughter from suffering the same fate. Unfortunately for the two of them, the events of that first film are about to affect both of their lives.Īs it turns out, I Spit On Your Grave: Deja Vu will pit both Jennifer and Christy against the family members of those four men that Christy killed during the original I Spit On Your Grave, according to Bloody Disgusting. What's better, Keaton is returning to the role of Jennifer, who has gone on to be a best-selling author, and lives with her daughter Christy, a model, in New York. However, as it turns out, this film is actually a direct follow-up to the 1978 original that starred Camille Keaton as writer-turned-avenging-killer Jennifer Hills. This new film, entitled Deja Vu, isn't another sequel to the 2010 remake and its two sequels.
