Film critic Keith Phipps returns for his second UNWATCHABLES season finale, and how better to close out the year than with a harrowing arthouse classic and its unlikely grindhouse remake? Ingmar Bergman’s THE VIRGIN SPRING is a stark, unsettling adaptation of a 13th century folk ballad; 12 years later, it served as the inspiration for the grisly debut of horror director Wes Craven, 1972’s THE LAST HOUSE ON THE LEFT. We discuss how Bergman’s religious fable morphed into the template for the modern rape-revenge film, and what was lost—or gained—in translation.
