delysid d a somewhat interesting film from Jesus Frsnco. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/01/18 Full Review Audience Member It's a better Jess Franco entry for featuring a more concise plot but beyond the titular content and trippy stylization there's very little on offer. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member for me it is a poor adaptation of Marquis De Sad story. good thing it isso weird ,bizarre and erotic, but the mixing of this film lacks the magical touch . Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Take literature by the Marquis de Sade, let it be interpreted for the screen by Jesus Franco around 1970, and you get a steaming heap of awful that's sleazy even when judged against Franco's other films. A woman and her stepfather commit murders for sexual gratification while having an affair of their own. Franco's flick contains not a single sympathetic character to which one might form any attachment, leaving nothing but a depiction of cruelty for cruelty's sake. It's not erotic in the least despite Franco pushing the envelope of softcore porn whenever he can work it. Even the acting is bargain-basement. Franco set out to shock his 1970 audience, and he clearly had some success at the time, but he didn't make a good, or even an interesting, movie in doing so, and now it's just dated and flat. Some really groovy hats, though. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member If you're not familiar with the films of Jess Franco - they are something of an acquired taste. They are usually a mix of horror and perversion. As you can probably see from the DVD cover and title for this one, it leans towards the latter. Having said that, a certain level of wierdness and stylistic direction, lifts this from being just sleaze (although it is pretty sleazy at times) It's very watchable and bookended by a very straight faced perfomance by Christopher Lee. If you're looking for something a bit different from the mainstream, then this is an entertaining 90 minutes. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member One of the best Jess Franco fis out there and one of the earliest at that starring cult film queen Maria Rohm. A young girl is lured to spend a weekend at a mansion with one of her friends. Only the friend's intentions are to sexually and physically assualt the girl after she has been drugged for her's and the girl's enjoyment. Based on writings by De Sade the film is loaded with style, great imagery, and of course the Franco style amount of soft core sex scenes. Not too mention it also features an appearence from Christopher Lee who after the film came out claimed that during the production he was never told it was going to be a softcore film.
