Lipstick (1976)
7/10
Rape while synth is playing...
1 April 2011
wikipedia:"it contains one of the most infamous scenes in motion picture history, showing an extremely graphic rape scene" wtf?

A music teacher rapes a fashion model and gets freed by the court...you can guess the rest but I don't want to spoil anything. The film is well phased(even though the revenge action takes place pretty late in the movie) and quite entertaining even though its not your typical I Spit on Your Grave type rape/revenge flick but more of a crime-thriller drama. Its well acted and nicely shot and genuinely a well made film, but I wouldn't recommend it for everyone.

Its not gory or horribly violent or anything and thats kind of the downfall of the movie, its nothing special so you don't miss much if you haven't seen this. Its just another take on the revenge flick, one of the better made ones but not one of the more memorable ones. Anyway if you like Rape 'n' Revenge like I do check it out but don't expect I Spit on Your Grave or The Last House on the Left.

Oh yeah I also have to mention the trippy synth neo-classical soundtrack. Its pretty cool, especially in the 1st rape scene.
