A truly excellent film, superb with Dustin Hoffman and a 19 year old Susan George, the entire cast is excellent, very compelling but very violent ending.

By the way, to those of you who have indeed seen the movie but are also aware of its controversy (not to mention, the fact that at the time, it was banned - more on that later.) Whilst by no means was the movie endorsing of sexual violence against Amy George's character as well as violence in general (including of one teenage female character in it), I have to wonder, why did Sam Peckinpah make the first act of sexual assault against Amy George's character somewhat ambiguous, leading critics and audiences to believe that either the character was "enjoying it" or that it was not "brutal enough" and causing great controversy as a result? And was that also the MAIN reason the movie was banned? Also, in your opinion, do you think Dustin Hoffman's character was a good man, a HERO in this (people have asked similar questions on Travis Bickle's character from "Taxi Driver") or, if not outright villain, then at least an anti hero etc? And do you think he did the right thing in killing those villagers who were attacking his house and even defend an accused child molester? And do you think he treated Susan George's character badly as well or not? And was the movie really WORTH all this controversy, ESPECIALLY with regards to the first point? (Some have even questioned if that scene WAS "rape" in the first place, but let's face it, she didn't want it and he DID force herself on her, so why the arguments?) (Maybe with regards to the first scene as such and is treatment, director Sam Peckinpah and the screen writer intended to, perhaps, make a radical and controversial statement about various DIFFERENT aspects to (in this case female) victim's reaction towards an act of rape and/or sexual assault (like, maybe how the body may also at times react even if the victim is totally against it), but without even REMOTELY suggesting or implying that either (Dear God) victim really "enjoys it" or that it is "not rape/sexual abuse) and therefore shouldn't be "illegal" and that it isn't "emotionally and possibly also physically hurtful in the process" etc, or maybe it was a statement that whilst not wanting it or not consenting it, Susan George's character in the scene simply was either too feared to fight back etc or wanted to play along so that the perpetrator Charlie does not cause her MORE pain and damage in the process, hence why it looked that way and caused controversy, and maybe Peckinpah also did not want to spell anything for audiences out and leave them to reach their own conclusion, similar to whether or not Hoffman's character is a hero here or not. In any case though, it is still a great movie and a controversial early 70s movie classic, even if not quite Sam Peckinpah's greatest achievement but one of his top 10 best for sure.

@vmackey11

The first one started out as a rape but eventually Susan George's character relents and it becomes consensual. Do not forget, Venner was an old flame from her younger days, she also was denied by Dustin Hoffman's character. Women have needs too, she purposely teased the men, she led on Venner who obviously was crazy jealous and she enjoyed it. She was looking for that crazy action hence why she consented and ended up enjoying it. This scene shows history between people does make a difference.

This film is better than A Midsummer's Night Dream (1999).

sideburns FTW!

Around what year did voiceovers in movie trailers end?

Straw Dogs, for me, is Peckinpah’s 3rd best film after 2nd, Ride the High Country and 1st, The Wild Bunch. Technically, there are some unforgivable bloopers, not least a scene where the viewer can clearly see the reflection of the camera in a car window, but this notwithstanding, this film is a masterpiece. A revolting masterpiece, to be sure, but for me, the blood-soaked, skin-strafed pile driver ending was in no way gratuitous. Hoffman’s feckless, feeble (until this climax), David, had had his buttons pushed to the limit, such that the seemingly sudden, sanguinary slaughter committed by this rather repressed, timid milquetoast was wholly in keeping with the foregoing events of the film. For me, amongst other things, this film may be subtitled, ‘The Revenge of the Bullied’. Peckinpah masterfully orchestrates things such that we are wholly rooting for Hoffman in the notorious denouement. I like to consider myself a law-abiding, generally mild-mannered individual, but in this revolting (in a good way) movie I can live out my vicarious revenge-fantasies in a cathartic (a Geek tragedy?), safe way. 🤠

@philosophygoth91 Bad simile, music is not in essence a narrative art, a good cover is really a re-invention, a bad cover is an attempt to take advantage someone else's creative status. The film equivalent of a cover are subtle quotes, like Carpenter's Halloween references to Pyscho, or De Palma's re-invention of Antonion's Blow Up in his Blow Out. But I agree some remakes are quite good, and it is wrong to authomatically say they're shit, although comparison is always valid.

His biggest weakness was the cliched interaction with female character (often typical of Boomer-era directors with enormous sense of entitlement to women's bodies - you see the same in Lynch movies as well: the obligatory rape scene), without any thought for the story. It's a device of totally lazy writing and there's was a perverse fixation on it across movies film the 70s to 80s. There hsve been no REAL revolutionary movie making in over 70 years quite frankly and that's due in large part by that era of directors getting in the way of good storytelling rather than doing it. The worst are the incredibly pretentious movies made by rube directors whose movies look like a 10 year old with mommy issues was doing the editing and videography. They're.
