The movie of which Nick Schager of Slant Magazine said "Sitting through Peckinpah's controversial classic is not unlike watching a lit fuse make its slow, inexorable way toward its combustible destination — the taut build-up is as shocking and vicious as its fiery conclusion is inevitable.”

For people who want their fair-minded sexual political representation from the man who made The Wild Bunch…ladies and gents and everyone inbetween, I present 1970’s exercise in home invasion mayhem, BBFC controversy and Chekovs mantrap – Sam Peckinpahs masterpiece – STRAW DOGS. You’re not going to want to miss this one. Seriously.
