FanTasia ’10: Another New Image from ‘I Spit On Your Grave’
We’ve now received a second image from Steven R. Monroe’s I Spit On Your Grave, Anchor Bay’s redo of Day of the Woman arriving in theaters this coming October. The film will have its world premiere at FanTasia (July 8-28) in Montreal. The pic tells the story of city dweller Jennifer Hills (Sarah Butler), a city girl who rents an isolated cabin in the country to write her latest novel. On one terrifying evening, a group of local lowlifes break into the cabin and overpower, assault and rape Jennifer, ultimately leaving her for dead. But Jennifer miraculously survives her ordeal, consumed with hell-borne vengeance for those who wronged her, and repays their heinous acts in gruesome ways that these lowlifes never thought imaginable.
