Very nasty rape revenge movie that lives up to it's substantial reputation! A young female writer sets off to a secluded cabin in the woods to write a novel, she is set upon by a group of thugs who repeatedly rape and degrade her, finally leaving her for dead. She gets her revenge on the group one by one in grizzly fashion, castrating one of them in a scene that will have all men crossing their legs. Banned outright by the censors. Released totally uncut as "Day of the Woman" A very disturbing movie, this shows the true horror of rape and is very convincing without being too sexually explicit. Certainly not a film saying rape is acceptable as some idiots seem to interpret.
