Apart from the fact that it is a controversial movie I can't imagine any other reason anyone would want to see this movie. The plot is almost non-existent. A woman is brutally and graphically raped and degraded for thirty minutes - then she kills the rapists. THE END.
Some people defend this horribly misogynistic movie by inverting reality and claiming it is a feminist film. It just isn't so. The revolting and seemingly endless rape sequence is brutal, graphic, long. The revenge murders are predictable and not graphic (ie, not gory in the tradition of slasher or giallo horror films).
Clearly the sole reason this film was made was to make money from mentally ill individuals who enjoying watching a woman being raped, beaten, degraded.
Is this film the cause of sexism? No, of course not. Is it in bad taste? Obviously. But WHY watch something which is highly unpleasant AND lacks any artistic or technical merit? Likely banning or crusading against these type of film only makes them more appealing to those who oppose censorship and seek out things which are transgressive. I also oppose censorship and enjoy transgressive cinema. But if you read other comments you will see that people who have sought this movie out for those reasons did not enjoy the experience and felt they had wasted their time and money. I would suggest you not make the same mistake.
