Straw Dogs

Straw Dogs is the remake of the movie that came out in the 1970s. Directed by Rod Lurie, it belongs to the genre of mystery and suspense. It presents a hard-hitting story about survival.

Watch its first scene and you would know this as a fact on your own. This is a movie that tells you the story of a writer. This writer, a character played by James Marsden, chooses to change his residence. As he along with wife (played by Kate Bosworth) moves to a new location, they encounter a few problems. The new place, located in Deep South, happens to be the home town of his wife. Their marriage hits a stumbling block, which prevents it from walking on a love filled path.

And this is not all of their problems; the things take an even crueler-turn when they are not very well accepted in that society. Yes, a group of men chooses to play ‘bad-games’ and gives the couple some pretty hard time. It is a movie that is coming from strong roots. The original did pretty well, and hence, it finds itself in to fill some pretty big shoes.
