I think this will be very good for the kingdom. It will weed out all those people who try to bluff their way through life.

THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT is the explicitly brutal thriller which set the standards against which today's films are still judged. Directed by horror master Wes Craven (A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET, FRIDAY THE 13th), THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT is a chilling drama of kidnap, torture and revenge that has shocked a generation of audiences - and is definitely not intended for young eyes.
The tale begins when two young girls go on a careless hunt to buy some marijuana - and end up as captives of four maniacal prison escapees. The girls are subject to obscene brutality...tortured, and left in the woods to die.
After the criminals escape through the woods, they end up at an isolated house, where they are befriended by the owners. The homeowners are waiting for their daughter to return for her 'Sweet Sixteen' party...and it's only a matter of time before the truth is found, and the girl's raging parents have their chance for vengeance of their daughter's tormentors.
