Jessicka Rabid is a 2010 American horror film directed by Matthew Reel about an inbred, intellectually disabled girl who contracts rabies from a dog bite after years of being treated like a dog by her abusive, incestuous white trash family.[1] [2] A sequel, titled Jessicka Rabid 2: Infected, was slated for a 2014 release, but was later cancelled.[3]
Jessicka is a mute and intellectually disabled young woman that lives with her cousins Marley and Brad Hoffman. They mistreat and abuse her on a regular basis, subjecting Jessicka to beatings and rape when they aren't locking her up in a dog cage and treating her like a pet. It's only after Jessicka is bitten by a rabid dog that she begins to turn on her cruel captors and the porn director they pimp her out to.
The Oklahoma Gazette panned Jessicka Rabid, stating that "This Troma pick-up really makes I Spit on Your Grave look like high art by comparison."[4] DVD Talk gave a mixed review, stating that "Jessicka Rabid is not a film for everyone, or indeed for most people. Fans of the genre will find a lot to like, others very little."[5]
