    The sequel I Spit On Your Grave 2 is shown in its original, uncut, and unrated form. It stars Jemma Dallender as Katie, a young woman trying to make it in the cutthroat world of modeling in New York City. When Katie innocently accepts an offer to have new photos taken for her portfolio, the experience quickly turns into an unthinkable nightmare. Severely beaten, battered, bruised, and left for dead, she will have to tap into the darkest places of the human psyche to not only survive her ordeal, but to ultimately find the strength to exact her brutal revenge. The film was made by the same creative team as the controversial 2010 film. (Gary Reber)

    Special features include deleted scenes (HD 05:23).

    The 2.40:1 1080p AVC picture is digitally photographed, with a natural appearance during the New York City segments, then switches to a drab, pale-gray and greenish rendering for stylization. Fleshtones remain naturally hued, though, at times are pale toned. Contrast is balanced with decent blacks and revealing shadow delineation. Overall this is a riveting picture, with horrific imagery. (Gary Reber)

    The Dolby® TrueHD 5.1-channel soundtrack is effectively jarring and intense, with deep bass support during the most horrific segments. Surround envelopment is ambiance and atmospheric driven and punctuated with sound effects. The music score is synthesizer-based, with an effective surround presence. Dialogue is pretty well balanced spatially, with the occasional frontal focus. The atmospherics accompanied by strong .1 LFE low-frequency energy really produces an emotional intensity, which enhances the graphic horrific visuals. (Gary Reber)

    Reason #33 Why Readers Love Widescreen Review:

    I read Widescreen Review because there is no other magazine on the market that will teach me everything about home theatre gear. I will feel more confident speaking to a salesman when the time comes to upgrade my system. Your knowledge and expertise in WSR have made me a better customer and a joyful home theatre enthusiast. Thank you all at WSR for a job well done, and continue to teach the way you have since the beginning.
