As is now custom on the heels of a remake, it’s time for a remastered Blu-ray release of a classic movie – in this case Straw Dogs , which has been remade to a poor critical reception by director Rod Lurie. The 1971 thriller – which deals with challenging themes of violence and repression - remains a difficult film from controversial director Sam Peckinpah.
Dustin Hoffman stars as David Sumner, a nebbish and aloof American teacher, who moves to rural England to live with his British wife Amy ( Susan George ). Despite longing to leave behind the violence and chaos of life in the states, it soon becomes clear that conflict exists even in a quiet corner of jolly old England, as the pair become targeted by a local group of roguish roustabouts – whom leer over Amy and play tricks on David for being an outsider.
As things become progressively worse, the couple find their already dysfunctional marriage beginning to unravel as well as being forced to take desperate – and uncharacteristic – measures to protect themselves and their home as it comes under attack by the increasingly violent mob.
