Movie Review: Straw Dogs

When a Hollywood writer and his sexy young wife move to her old family cottage in a small American town, all they want is solitude, while he scripts his movie on the battle of Stalingrad. Little do they know that their own lives will be eerily similar to the Russians who were under siege in their own city... but will they be able to hold out?

The movie starts with a gentle pace, but the underlying tensions build, slowly but surely. When their cat is found killed, hanging in their closet, the gloves are off, and the movie hurtles towards the shocking climax.

Kate Bosworth is steaming hot (no wonder she sweats so much!)

Not a bad thriller.
