If you loved The Osterman Weekend, try Straw Dogs

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Sam Peckinpah, and they sit in Drama / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Osterman Weekend, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Straw Dogs is

Cornwall countryside, autumn, a broken fence. A American academic and his English wife face local hostility, old flames, and escalating threats. Peckinpah frames masculinity as a brittle construct.
