...I'm sorry, but did it say that dude's name was "Gaylord"? *stifles laughter* My god, what the hell were his parents ON!? XD Oh, man, imagine that poor guy's elementary school life...
What a surprise to see Martin Kove in the credits. I had to watch it again to recognize him. Did he play a lot of film cops? I remember him as a detective in the 1980s on Cagney and Lacey. He's the only character actor I recognized who went on to do something else after this. Were there others?
@scrowfan41 the remake was horrible!!!! the acting sucked and the story sucked!!!
this one was waaay creepier!! and what do you expect the music to be!?! sorry that rap and hip hop wasnt invented in the 70's. its not like they could put music from the future in it! and back in its time it was really freaky!! just think, this was the first movie that came out after the universal monster movies. so from going to PG monster movies to brutal rape and murder movies. thats pretty damn cool!!
@kimi2wara You do have a point there but I guess after all the uneasiness that went on in that movie, you would need that ending... but that was also the brillance of the early 70s low budget films!!
i was disappointed. i thought the parents were going to marathon torture the murders. nothing like i thought it was going to be like. or that the murders were going to marathon the two girls in the woods and stuff. straw dogs is a good movie watch it.
I think the question would be pennlylessandpompous, at what point were the parents safe to the point they could call the cops, personally, I would nullify.
Hahahahahaha I was thinking Krug reminds me of someone but couldn't figure it out...I knew it was someone likeable, which made watching this really weird...I just got it. Andy, from Hamish and Andy.
Every video on Last House, i keep seeing the same old ''remake is better'' comment. That is such crap. This is one of the most horrifying, and disturbing films ever made. I find it to be scarier than The Exorcist. One youtube user has said that this film has no emotion. Good. For that, the film has held up. Wes Craven and Sean Cunnigham shot this film like a documentary, and that's why the film is so scary. it makes you think that there are people like this in the world.
No. Films like saw and hostel don't have that raw edge to them, like this movie, or Texas Chainsaw Massacre do. That raw edge that makes the film feel like a documentary, or that someone just filmed these people getting killed, which is what makes this film so terrifying. It could happen anywhere, which is really scary.
Well Hostel and Saw knew how to rape and assault the senses of a new generation of moviegoers just like Last House did in 1972 or are they laughable? afterall Hostel/Saw are an allegory on the attacks of 9/11 and terrorism as much as Last House was to Vietnam.
Badly made or not, the question is, and I regard this movie as a moral tale, how far should one/would you go to avenge your family? I 'm a lawyer by trade, so I'm supposed to abide by the law with all its attendant procedures, and yet if someone raped and kill my daughter (which I do not have btw), well, I'd rather not examine that area. Got my meaning? Of course, you do.
I would've avoided the funky, cheerful music and "comedy" scenes in the movie, but would still leave the credits like this for the "what the fuck" effect.
"The remake was better" is such crap. This movie changed horror films forever. This was Wes Craven's greatest piece. It may not seem scary anymore now that these ideas have been played out for over thirty years, but at the time this was shocking. Where's the appreciation, y'all?
@betheoyster how did this piece of sh....change horror i hated this movie halloween and the exorcist were great flicks last house was sick and i cant consider it a horror film.the exorcist had better shock value and was dont quite well but last house i believe was wes craven's first film and it shows to,but once freddy came a round wes became a big time director hes good but last house was just awful awful and it should be banned everywhere even burn
@betheoyster I liked the remake way better. So much more detail. So much less unnessecary weirdness. And those corny cops were no where to be seen,thank god.
This film made me sick when i was 14 when i rented it and left me a bit scarred but it is still an unpleasant film. Have you seen Martyrs, Ichi The Killer, Maniac, Funny Games, etc.? similar films. I hear Serbian Film is worse than this as it's considered the sickest film in recent memory but i refuse to see that one after the things i've heard
it wasn't at all scary seems normal to me i thought there would whole lot more zest to it but the whole breaking teeth thing that was awesome he should have done it for real <3
The remake probably wont as good as the original, but everyone knows that the way the parents get back at those guys will be 100% worse, cause face it ppl lol hollywood is messed up now a days, u can watch saw to understand that.
Yeah, I'm actually looking forward to the creative gore of the 2009 remake. Plus the picture'll be better, and this time around, I think Mari survives. I'll give it a shot- it looks promising!
I got a sneek peak into the remake and as usual it was shit. Literally and figuratively shit. It wasn't as bad as hhe but the ending...What a cop out. Fucking hollywood assholes. This one chilled me to the bone and left me truly frightened and mortified by what I saw-Craven, I don't know what happened to your talent but it is long gone.
They didn't even kill two of the four. The one guy shot himself and the killer who had his hands tied behind his back just got it junk bitten off...I guess he could have died from blood loss...
LMAO i thought that same thing!!! This movie is about killing and torture, and u get to the end credits and i feel like im watching some messed up version of a doublement gum or mentos breathmint commercial WTH!!!!!
that was good. I totally have to see the real version. Not the new one. This one. These old films relied on suspense and gore to keep us appalled, not computery magic dust.
If I just found out that my daughter was raped and murdered and the killers was in my home I would probably snap too. I think many people would if they actually cared/loved their own daughter. Great Horror Classic

I respect Wes Craven as a filmmaker. Most of his other films are absolutely insane, and have changed the horror genre throughout history, but I fail to see the place this piece of Grindhouse exploitation trash holds in the history of film. Thank the good Lord that this is getting a remake produced by Craven himself.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Please. Please help me. Help me understand why this movie is a classic. I came to see a horror classic, and all I got was some trash I could have filmed in my backyard. All the acting was terrible, the bumbling cops broke up the movie terribly. What was up with the stereotypical black woman? Also, the music never fit right except for the scene where the killers were chasing the girl down. No explanation of why the parents decided to randomly start killing. Please explain it to me!
Upon seeing the movie for the 1st time I can say things have changed & we're alot less sensitized than we were in 1972. Even movies like Constantine are more violent in comparison..minus the rape of course. I'm ready for a re-make with more balls
well now in the end id really expected some more somehow but it seems that no parts of the body were cutten off with chainsaw so id rather look movies from lucio fulci
I guess the whole point is, uh, always by drugs from a reputable source. DON'T ever go looking for weed by yourself in a tough neighborhood, especially if you're a girl w/o a bra.
Huh... that was definately 70's. I don't know, 2 outta 5 stars. Pretty dirty and weird how they did that in the 70's."The kids of today should defend themselves against the 70's..."
It's done in 70's style. When your child has been killed , you don't really give a F**K about the outcome when the murderers are right at your grasp. As for the music. Watch House Of 1000 Corpes and Devil's Rejects. Thanks for the post. A Wes Craven cult Classic.
The film is garbage. Badly done in every way. Why isn't there a build up before the parents decide to become murderers? Why don't they consider what they're doing- where is the drama? That stupid music on the end credits is so out of place. It's just an excuse for a lot of lurid gore: that's the only reason people watch it. Try Bergman's VIRGIN SPRING: same plot done 1000 times better.
