Tagline: If bad people hurt someone you love, how far would you go to hurt them back?
Masters of suspense Wes Craven (A Nightmare on Elm Street, Scream trilogy) and Sean Cunningham (Friday the 13th) revisit the landmark movie that launched Craven’s directing career and influenced decades of horror films to follow: The Last House on the Left.
Bringing one of the most notorious thrillers of all time to a new generation, they produce the story that explores how far two ordinary people will go to exact revenge on the sociopaths who harmed their child.
The night she arrives at the remote Collingwood lake house, Mari (Sara Paxton) and her friend Paige (Martha Macisaac) are kidnapped by psychopathic prison escapee Krug (Garrett Dillahunt) and his crew-deranged girlfriend Sadie (Riki Lindhome), sadistic brother Francis (Aaron Paul) and son Justin Spencer Treat Clark).
Terrified and left for dead, Mari’s only hope for survival is to make it back to parents John and Emma (The Last Samurai, and Monica Potter, Saw). Unfortunately, her attackers unknowingly seek shelter at the one place she could be safe. And when Mari’s family learns the horrifying story, they will make three strangers curse the day they came to the last house on the left.
