In 1972, Wes Craven wrote and directed the controversial movie The Last House on the Left. The film follows Mari on her 17 year old birthday, as she and her friend Phyllis make their way into the big city to see a concert. On their way to the city, a radio announcement broadcasts that a convicted child molester, and a murderer have escaped from prison, assisted by the murder’s son, and a “Wild Woman”, and that everyone should be on the lookout, as these convicts are to be considered dangerous. Once the girls get to the city, they try to score some weed before they go to their concert. There, they run into Junior, who tells them that he has some weed to sell them, but they’ll have to come upstairs for him to get it. At the apartment, Junior, Weasel, Krug and Sadie (who happen to be the 4 mentioned on the radio) lock them in the apartment, and they rape Phyllis. The next morning, the group takes the girls out to the country where the two girls eventually are raped, tortured and brutally murdered.
