The Last House on the Beach (Italian: La settima donna, also known as Terror and The Seventh Woman) is a 1978 Italian rape and revenge-thriller film directed by Franco Prosperi.
The American title refers to Wes Craven's The Last House on the Left, and Alexandra Heller-Nicholas noticed how "combining the nunsploitation subgenre with rape-revenge, the film deviates plot-wise from The Last House on the Left substantially, but arrives at a similar ethical conclusion".[1]
It was argued that the final scene of the movie inspired the final scene in Quentin Tarantino's Death Proof.[2][3][4]
