Goofs:
Factual errors: The boat in the film for which they could not find the keys was a newer model Ski Nautique. These particular boats DO NOT use keys. They use a four digit start code which you must input into the key-less ignition panel. You can in fact see this panel in one of the first shots of the boat which shows the dash. It is marked by a big red START button.

Quotes:
[first lines]
Morton: [telling joke to Giles] So the next week, he's even hornier. And this time, he's got twenty bucks instead of ten. He goes back to the whorehouse, he slaps down the twenty, and tells the madam he needs to get off, but he ain't going to screw no goddamn chicken this time. She says it still ain't much, but she can help. She tells him to go to the room at the top of the stairs. This time there's just a bunch of guys jerking off, but one of the jerk off guys assures him "oh hey, it's cool, it's cool" and he waves him over to this whole toilet they're all looking through...
Krug: Oh, can we stop please? I really gotta take a piss.
Morton: Fuck you.

While being transported by two detectives in a car, the dangerous criminal Krug (Garret Dillahunt) is rescued by his brother Francis (Aaron Paul) and his girlfriend Sadie (Riki Lindhome), and they brutally kill the detectives. Meanwhile Emma (Monica Potter), her husband Dr. John (Tony Goldwyn) and their seventeen year-old daughter Mari Collingwood (Sara Paxton) head on vacation to their house nearby the lake. Mari borrows the family car to meet her friend Paige (Martha MacIsaac) that is working in a store in the town. They befriend the teenager Justin (Spencer Treat Clark) in the store and he offers some marijuana to the pothead Paige in the motel where he is lodged. While they are smoking grass in Justin's room, Krug, who is Justin's father, Francis and Sadie arrive and abduct the girls. Krug drives Mari's car and she provokes a crash on a tree. Krug stabs Paige and rapes Mari; however Mary manages to escape, swimming in the lake, but Krug shots her on the back. They walk through the isolated road in the woods and they reach Collingwood's house telling that they have just had a car accident. Emma and John welcome the strangers until they discover what happened to their beloved daughter.
"The Last House on the Left" is a good remake of the 1972 Wes Craven's tale of revenge. This thriller is very violent and the rape scene is very realistic. However, the storyline is indeed an updated version of 1960 Ingmar Bergman's "Jungfrukällan" that takes place in the Fourteenth Century in Sweden, i.e., a virgin that is raped by a gang that seeks shelter in her parent's home, and her father revenges the death of his beloved daughter. Unfortunately I did not see any credit to the original writer Ulla Isaksson. My vote is six.
