The apotheosis of carnage. Sam Peckinpah creates a Tchaikovskian ballet of bloodshed and sadism. Never before has such animalistic violence been brought so unnervingly to the silver screen. One will likely never see a film more viciously spiteful to viewers' sensibilities. Like Lars von Trier's shattering Dogville, this film slashes one's ethical reasoning. After an hour of masterfully constructed tension, this potboiler has one essentially craving the cataclysmic finale; the terrifying transition of Dustin Hoffman's mousy mathematician from chilled academic to bloodthirsty savage reaches an almost Wagnerian level of heroism. Susan George (excelling particularly in the notorious rape scene, still gut-wrenching, still a revolting combination of the erotic and the obscene), Peter Vaughan (nauseatingly loutish), T.P. McKenna, Del Henney, and Colin Welland are all pitch-perfect as well. A disturbing masterpiece.

i didn't want to put this on, but i have to. its a very, very great film and the best exploration/critique of human violence since hemingway. its also profoundly disturbing, and not only on the level of its violence. what it says about the human soul is not easy to take or accept. avoid if you are easily disturbed by intense movies.

Straw Dogs is a bold, well filmed, well told movie about violence. About standing up for what you think is right, protecting what's yours and not backing down from that no matter the cost. Dustin Hoffman is amazing, giving a brave and assured performance that is certainly one of, if not THE darkest roles he's ever taken. Why the likes of Richard Schickle, Roger Ebert and the overrated Pauline Kael shat all over this movie upon its release not only frustrates me but makes me wonder if they had the balls to see a movie this tough, and the know how to see what Peckinpah was using the violence to say. They weren't alone though, the movie being banned in the U.K. for many years, mainly for the rape scene, which is only really half a rape scene. I mean come on, she was into that first guy, felt guilty about enjoying to be sure, but still... Anyway, a masterpiece of violent cinema from the master of violent cinema.

unforgettable, as disturbing as most peckinpah is, but even more so since we're not in the wild west but in a quaint english burg

Una obra maestra de Peckinpah. Dustin Hoffmann en una de sus mejores actuaciones, intenso y a la vez creible como un calmado matematico, que finalmente desata esa brutalidad que todos guardamos, aunque sea en un lugar recondito de nuestro interior. Peckinpah alterna tension y violencia con un timing soberbio.
