• Trailer: B

Review:

What this trailer does is make me want to revisit the original. Back in the late '80s, I gobbled up every horror flick I could find. I've seen some just plain awful films (like Deadtime Stories). Wes Craven's original The Last House on the Left barely registers in my mind at this point, but this trailer makes it seem like a far more compelling plot than I remember. As for this trailer, it looks like yet another in a long line of remakes that modernizes the story without adding any depth.

Oscar Prospects:

None.
