Review: Vulgar Nazi war Eurosleaze from the evil Ivan Kathansky (director of SS Hell Camp) has something for everyone: giant gasoline explosions, fierce machine gun fights, vicious beatings, screaming nude women draped over sawhorses and scrubbed with soapy mops, a whip-wielding lesbian doctor who likes to be on the receiving end in her spare time, dead Jew floggings, hairy full frontal nudity, penises being torn off, a transvestite belly dancer, forced urine drinking, and Gordon Mitchell as a slimy homosexual SS officer!
Review: Howard Vernon is Dr. Josef Megele (yes, Hitler's Mengele) who has concocted a plan to make kidnapped women mate with Chimpanzees and develop a super race. (!?!?) If he's had any success they are never on screen. Even the monkey seems embarassed to be in this hysterically funny mess... Chris Mitchum breaks into Mengele's camp with a bunch of weapons specialists, super spies and circus tumblers, including a pretzel man who is injured and benched before showing off any stunts. Also with Fernando Rey, Jack Taylor & Robert Foster. A pathetically conceived giggle fest.
Review: --Of all the films in the Nazi sexploitation cycle of the 1970s (begun by the infamous ILSA, SHE WOLF OF THE S.S.), S.S. HELL CAMP (LA BESTIA IN CALORE) is often described as the most outrageous. It was among the films banned in the United Kingdom during the "video nasties" censorship craze, and subsequently became sought out by collectors and cult film enthusiasts alike. Macha Magall stars as the Ilsa-like Dr. Krast, a sadistic Nazi scientist who seeks to genetically engineer a perfect man. The result is a violent, sex-crazed beast, which she uses to torment and murder her victims while seeking information about the leaders of a resistance movement. As the rebels argue amongst themselves, Dr. Krast's experiments and tortures become more and more perverse, and her Neanderthal-like beast more and more savage.
Review: This movie had two things that most porn movies lack: a plot, and Nazis. Granted, the plot had holes, but then again, what movie plot doesn't? It should be noted that the Nazis speak English, which makes the 'plot' a lot easier to follow. They also live in the 1980s, and instead of taking over Europe, they're having sex. Also Stars Reggie Nalder from Mark of the Devil Fame.
Review: Police detective, Mitchell, investigating the death of a victim of a Nazi concentration camp discovers a nightclubbing playboy who has strange powers over women and is seemingly ageless.
Review: Campy softcore sexploitation about a bunch of dogfaces sneaking behind enemy lines to swipe a load of loot from a Nazi bordello. Directed by John Jailbait Babysitter Hayes, with an uncredited appearance by Uschi Digard, and worth the price of admission for the foot sex scene alone! And dig that hillbilly theme song!
Review: "Deported Women of the S.S. Special Section" is about the daily ins and outs of life in a Nazi women's prison. The women get to the camp and are given the usual medical tests to make sure they're healthy enough for torture. There is a long shaving sequence in which pubic hair goes under the razor. That was hilarious. It was all for health reasons of course. The commander of the camp becomes infatuated with one of the prisoners. He wants her to love him. He goes through various romantic wooing ideas, (humiliation, solitary confinement), until she decides to leave a present in her vagina for him in the climax.

Review: Erwin C. Deitrich sexploitationer about young women recruited by the Gestapo for "special assignment." Mmm yeah. We know what that means. Light on violence but more than makes up for it with plenty of footage of naked Teuton babes running through battlefields while mortar rounds explode around them. Think Hogan’s Heroes goes nudist.
Review: Lise Cohen is taken to a special prisoner-of-war camp for female Jews, a camp run as a bordello to entertain the German officers and troops going in to battle. The camp is run with an iron fist by Commandant Starker and his minion Alma. Starker becomes frustrated when Lise demonstrates no fear, and devises cruel experiments to scare her, to no avail. Once she realizes her guilt is unfounded, Lise begins to play Starker's game, but even though she begins living a better life, she doesn't forget the atrocities she has seen and experienced.
Review: The beautiful, black booted, leather wearing and sexually sadistic Helga rules iron-handed over her prison camp for women. Loaded with plenty of naked babes, whippings and torture sequences. This rarely seen film is Eurociné's answer to Jess Franco's 'Ilsa The Wicked Warden'. One of the better WIP (Women In Prison) films starring Malisa Longo, Patrizia Gori, Claude Joanna and Dominique Aveline.
Review: A secret group of Jewish activists locate and murder the doctors and soldiers who tortured their relations in a notorious extermination camp. They hypnotize a mysterious girl into killing the Commandant's son (a wealthy playboy) to lure his father out of hiding. Once captured, the old man is tickled to death by a goat licking his feet!!! Other highlights include a couple being power drilled to death in their sleep, a woman stripped, tied spread eagled to trees and strangled, flashbacks of Jews being gunned down in the camps while little kids sing, a kinky cabaret scene lifted straight out of The Night Porter, and more! Amazing! Stars William Berger and Gordon Mitchell

Review: In case you had any lingering doubts about the decline of Western Civilization, here's an all-singing, all-dancing, musical comedy stage play based on the Ilsa movies!!! Probably the greatest concept since Springtime for Hitler and the chick who plays Ilsa has a dynamite pair of legs that even Tina Turner herself would envy!
Review: Ilsa is an evil Nazi warden at a death camp that conducts "medical experiments". Ilsa's goal is to prove that woman can withstand more pain and suffering than men and therefore should be allowed to fight on the front lines.

Review: Massive orgies, swagger stick sucking, jack boot humping, and SS officers riding women like horsies are just a few of the delights to be found in this one!
Review: Also known as The Bikers and the Disco Kid, this 1981 Euro trash classic is an extreme example of the moronic films that were being churned out all over the world in the early 80's. This one has it all, violent death, castration, motorcycle chases, penis eating and oh, so much more. The story concerns a deadly rift between some kung fu guys and some biker guys. Hal Martin is out for revenge after a hoodlum biker gang brutally rapes his girlfriend. He asks for the help of his Kung Fufighting friends, who attack the bikers and castrate their head honcho. The bikers retaliate by showing up at the Kung Fu school armed with machine guns. From there, it’s an all out war!
Review: Obscure Nazi/women-in-prison film about a female Russian spy who seeks out to gather information about Spilberg; a Nazi brothel/prison. She is soon discovered and is imprisoned and tortured. It is in this film that we are introduced to the character of Helga-The She Wolf of Spilberg. This one has good amounts of sadism, nudity, and softcore sleaze so it will make a perfect addition to that Nazi collection!

Review: A shipwrecked World War II sailor comes to the rescue of two American nurses held in the clutches of a twisted Nazi officer and his three female assistants on a deserted South Pacific island
Review: The plot is a little confusing, but the emphasis is given on the directing, the acting and the shocking sex scenes. A nazi officer has to bring the 12 most influent german personalities into a "castle" for the week-end. 12 girls are already there, sexually trained to "entertain" the men. What follows is an orgy where sex and violence are king and queen, and a general atmosphere of spreaded madness. The scenes are powerful, the actresses are perfect, and I can't help but raise a couple of cut thumbs up to Fabio...
Review: Paris under occupation. In a little quiet parisian house, nazis officers having sex with french girls... Nice little story with a 70's feeling. Shoot in 1978 this porn movie is one of the first Brigitte lahaie films. She's still a brunette, becoming blonde later in this business. Nothing much to say except that is a very rare film to find these days and a great collector for Brigitte Lahaie's fans. The atmosphere is quite nice but a little more decadence await during the whole movie. That is not what i called Nazisploitation but nice porn movie with SS. Still the "already" great Lahaie and very nice looking girls touching herself through the movie. I kinda like that! The soundtrack is also a great one! Just see it, if you can find a copy!

So he refuses the society and his tin drum symbolizes his protest against the middle-class mentality of his family and neighborhood, which stand for all passive people in Nazi Germany at that time. However, (almost) nobody listens to him, so the catastrophe goes on...
Review: COOL Brazilian trash/exploitation film about a sect of Nazis living in Brazil who like to kidnap and beat local crime rings so to intimidate them into following their reign of terror. People are beaten, put before fireing squds, and even some minor experiments are conducted. Like a lot of these Brazilian films this one also sorta loses the viewer a bit amongst the confusion but is still fun.
Review: truly perverse entry in the softcore Nazi prison camp genre, this Italian effort from Bruno Mattei ("Caged Women") tells of a female POW forced to serve as a diabolical doctor's assistant in a series of deranged experiments. Among the doc's most depraved plots: have naked women rub their bodies over frozen Nazi corpses to revive them, and "cure" homosexual men by having nude women dance for them. Ivano Staccioli and Ria De Simone star.
Review: Italian beauty Barbara Bouchet took a break in the from the Italian thrillers and comedies of the mid 70s to star in this excellent drama.

A beautifully photographed and well written film based on the 1839 novel of the same name by famed Italian author Stendahl. Directed with great care by Armando Crispino who is best know for his horror film AUTOPSY. Even though this drama seeks to attain high-brow status, Crispino can not resist tossing in exploitative elements such as copious amounts of nudity and scenes of brutally torture. Also stars Pier Paolo Cappoi, Evelyn Stewart, Antonio Cantafora, Patrizia Valturri, and Mara Venier. (1974-Itlay) In Italian, with English subtitles

They receive a warm welcome between the thighs of the blonde barmaid and the nuns in the local convent. The nun’s Monsignor is doing sterling work on his own account too. At one point he has two naughty novices kneeling up on back to back chairs for kissy poos, while he plunders their bumholes with his big, fat cock. Of course, the nuns are up to their girly games too, but nothing can compare with the majesty of rampant man meat. When the local Gendarmes come looking for the deserters they find their search hampered by half naked nymphomaniac nuns demanding to be porked.
Review: Damned If You Don’t is Friedrich’s subversive and ecstatic response to her Catholic upbringing.

In his desperation Pupis turns to the clergy for spiritual and psychological help.
Review: Spanish super star Carmen Maura plays a nun who agrees to a selfless scam, a fake stigmata, only to avoid separation from her lover, another nun. 'Extramuros' is edgy all right: a plot or scheme agreed upon between two lovers to escape their plight, but with a twist. The scheme is similar to some we've recently seen power couples of politicians, religious leader and the like, play out on the world in the last decade. But the twist this film throws in - literal and actual self-flagellation is original. It's a serious and passionate work, highlighting the theme of outspoken women-against-repression, seen in other good gay and lesbian films. This is not a lesbian "Nun sense" or another "Dark Habits" (by Almodovar, which also starred Carmen Maura, and also set in a Spanish convent, with some lesbian nuns). Perhaps, best of all, 'Extramuros' is realistic and frank. It isn't shy about its characters' sexuality. Their sexuality, and the film as a whole are genuine.

Review: Anita Ekberg and Joe Dallesandro star in this cult horror film about a demented nun sliding through morphine addiction into madness, whilst presiding over a regime of lesbianism, torture and death. Anita plays the head nurse/nun in a general hospital, whose increasingly psychotic behavior endangers the staff and patients around her.
Review: An English soldier (Cliver) returns home from the Zulu war with the daughter of a tribal king (Gemser) as his slave (a gift that he was given for "saving" the kings life). The spoils of war, ya know? While he's been gone, his wife has been having an affair with the female housekeeper (Belle). Not at all pleased with being a slave, the Ebony princess notices the mistress of the house engaging in a quick bit of foreplay with the housekeeper and plots her revenge starting with the seduction of the mistress. Jealousy spreads like wildfire and before you know it, she has turned the household into a lustful frenzy of sex and hatred. I can't give away too much more or it would ruin the story, but there are plenty of little twists along the way. Speaking of twists, this film is actually far more twisted than it sounds. One of the more disturbing moments being a sequence about the filming of an inquisition-themed porno that turns into the sadistic rape of a lesbian / virgin by the filthy and none too bright gardener. Sporting tons of full-frontal nudity, simulated lesbian and straight sex and some hard-core (as seen in an old stag film), this has the sleazy goods to go along with the D.H. Lawrence-ish setting and atmosphere, and is definitely recommended for fans of such.
Review: Who else could play the title character of La Bella Antonia but La Bella Edwige? As a virtues (at first ) medieval maiden (not for long) bound to a marriage of inconvenience. she has to have a picture painted to sweeten the deal. Enter Giovanni Piccolomini (Riccardo Garrone), wearing a scene stealing red cap indicating his artistic nature. Giovanni's brush is irresistible to every woman he meets, including (within the first ten minutes of the film), a serving wench at the local tavern and both of Antonia's ladies in waiting. Being one of those period sex romps from Fenech' early years, she still had to share on-screen nudity with up to six other women per film. Later her status as Italy's queen of Sexploitation grew strong enough for her to demand alone-right on nakedness While Antonia remains adamant of saving herself for her clumsy blond Vulco (who looks and acts like Prince Valium from Spaceballs), Giovanni presents his favorite conquests with the latest fashion from Rome: a pair of big yellow bloomers. Hence the catchy theme song (La Mutanda) at the start. Owing to a rather under explained misunderstanding, Antonia commits herself to a convent because she is denied the love of Vulco, while it is actually him she is betrothed to all along. Luckily Giovanni decides to help the pair get together, although how he finds the time to do so while pleasing all the other women in town remains a mystery. The action (and I mean this literally) switches to the local convent, where all sorts of nocturnal activities are going on during nightly prayers. Of course at the time this film was shot, free love was all the rage, but the unrivaled promiscuity shown here borders on the ridiculous. For instance, over in another subplot, hapless servant Ariosto is forced to pimp out the female staff to Antonia's lusty old dad. But mom (who does not look old enough to have carried Edwige in the first place) is on to him. Meanwhile again, Giovanni is painting an alfresco for Vulco's mother, who really does not look old enough to - well, you get the picture. Eventually, all's well that ends well with one of those Asterix final page banquets, except that once Antonia is married, she starts to take after her father...

Review: A brothel is raided by revolutionaries and the prostitutes are arrested for harboring fugitives. The prostitutes escape and hide out in a vacant convent run by a drunken monk.

Review: Disturbing but accurate Italian Chronicle of the XVII century. It depicts the real story of the Spanish nun Virginia de Leyva, a noble forced to take the religious votes in the Italian convent of Monza, where she becomes mother superior, and of her violent affair with an Italian "Signorotto", after which she gives birth to a girl. He gets killed, she ends up buried alive for more than ten years in a tiny cell. Cruel inner plots, corruption, sex hidden behind the walls between nuns and priests, hysteria and general hypocrisy, not to mention tortures and psychological violence, all make up to a disturbing but effective kind-of prequel to Ken Russell's "The Devils". The story of Virginia de Leyva also inspired a famous chapter of the Italian historical novel "I promessi sposi" by Alessandro Manzoni.
Review: The Nun is a flashy nun horror film with a twist ending and staunchly Catholic backdrop. In fact, the film drops several subtle hints about the outcome that only a well-read Catholic would pick up. The movie also features several bizarre nunsploitation twists including a wayward priest and a wayward-leaning seminarian. Anita Briem plays Eva, a high school graduate who comes home on prom night only to see her mother being murdered by a ghostly nun -- the spectre of Sister Ursula (Cristina Piaget). One by one, Mary's friends suffer bizarre deaths as though Sister Ursula is hunting them down. Eva runs into Gabrielle, a seminarian who helps her find the boarding school her mom attended -- the site of Sister Ursula's death. It is here that Eva discovers a terrible secret that her mother has been hiding, the identity of Eva's real father. The movie features extraordinary flashy special effects. Sister Ursula, having died in the water, manifests herself as a watery spirit. She uses water in all of the killings.

Review: A priest investagates paranormal activity at a nuns' convent where a deep, dark secret is about to resurface in the guise of murder! Could the devil be behind this, or is that just what Mother Superior wants everyone to believe?
Review: Sacred Flesh is an usual bit of “nunsploitation” in that it spends almost as much time ruminating on the perils of repressed sexuality as it does lingering on the flesh of nubile young women.The plot of this British film centers on the Mother Superior of a convent, who has apparently gone mad, seeing visions and locking herself away in the abbey. The Mother, well-played by Sally Tremaine, is trapped in a mental battle between lust, as represented by the critical Mary Magdalene (Kristina Bill, The Affair of the Necklace), and her vows to Christ, as represented by an even more critical skeletal nun (Rachel Taggart, Spider) and her leering green companion (Eileen Daly, the face of the Redemption video line).As the Mother struggles to maintain her chastity, she is tempted by Magdalene, who throws the confessions of her young nuns at her as examples of how repression leads to sin — and how much sin turns her on, if only she’ll let it.The confession scenes are where the film’s ample nudity come into play, as the perversions grow in form and number. What starts with simple masturbation escalates through lesbianism, two priests seducing a young nun, and climaxing — pun intended — with three nuns kidnapping and faux-crucifiying a rival. Though this “Nuns Gone Wild” element requires little other than good looks and heaving bosoms from the younger women, the other roles require more skill — after all, they have lines. Tremaine and Bill acquit themselves well in the back-and-forth debate interspersed with the back-and-forth lesbian action, and Simon Hill and Moyna Cope, as two senior church officials discussing the Mother Superior’s problems, are also capable. There are some weak actors among the supporting players, but that’s a minor and typical quibble.

Review: The story of Joe [Dallesandro] and his lover-protector, Holly [Woodlawn], who is something to behold, a comic book Mother Courage who fancies herself as Marlene Dietrich but sounds more like Phil Silvers. Joe and Holly try to make a go of things in their Lower East Side basement, from which Holly goes forth from time to time to cruise the Fillmore East and to scavenge garbage cans, while Joe's journeys are in search of real junk... Trash is true-blue movie-making, funny and vivid.--Vincent Canby, The New York Times. Written & directed by Paul Morrissey, "presented" by Andy Warhol.

Review: MORBID and surreal French art-madness from 1969-IN ENGLISH!-has a young man chasing a woman into a mansion of perversion only to find she also loves the lifestyle of debauchery.

Review: This sexy softcore comedy is a must for Lina Romay fans as she spends most of it in the "altogether"! (That's nekkid, pal!) Ms. Romay plays a prostitute who is forced to go on the run after her brothel is busted! She ends up posing as a maid for a stuffy rich family. Her unrestrained sexuality has them all going nuts! Howard Vernon is great as the bedridden and perverted but lovable old Grandfather. Also with Olivier Mathot, Pamela Stanford and Nadine Pascal. Picture is soft looking but watchable.

Review: Brace yourselves, folks, this one's a jaw-dropper! Frozen-fazed automatons and a goofy-looking monster (with a blinking light in the center of his forhead) abducted a collection of sexual specimens - hippies, lesbians, stripper Gloria Prat - who are whisked off to the estate of crasy Dr. Humpp (Aldo Barbero). There, with the aid of aphrodisiacs, "electronic control of the libido, "and a talking, pulsating, disembodied brain, in a jar (who's always in a bad mood), Dr. H turns his guests into "veritable screwing machines." He then drains "the blood forces of sex" from the copulating couples which he uses as an elixir to keep himself eternally young. Investigatin the kidnappings, journalist Richard Bauleo quickly finds himself part of the story when he's partnered with Miss Prat on Humpp's telepathic sex machine. As the good doc points out, "Sex dominates the world and now I dominate sex!"

Review: DIRTY is the reincarnation of two girls, a bottle and one bed. Their bodies, hands and face expressions reach out in a refilm look. "DIRTY was originally shot in 1965. The footage was found in a very bad state and 'restored' with all marks, breaks, dirt, etc. deliberately left in place. But this is not the only thing that makes this a 'dirty' film; we see two almost naked women in a bed, first drinking from a bottle, then playing with it and ultimately engaging in erotic play. The dirt marks, the grainy texture of the image and the breakdown of the continuity of the action give the whole film the quality of a highly charged erotic memory. It creates the effect of a dreamlike recalling of a scene with the dreamer's freedom to re-run or pause on particular gestures and freeze certain privileged moments such as the caress of a hand, the bounce of a breast, a look, etc. The film becomes an erotic daydream, a play with sensual images retained from a scene witnessed sometime in the past." -
Review: Sally runs a mobile "pirate" radio station--which she operates from hervan--where, in her sexy and sultry voice, she encourages her listeners(mostly teenagers) to use the music she plays "to ball by". She also takescalls from her listeners and even offers herself as a prize in a contest. Hershow is so popular it winds up "turning on" large numbers of the localpopulation. The authorities, of course, can't allow that to happen, so theysend out the cops to find her and shut her down.
Review: Unlike other early adult movies such as DEEP THROAT and BEHIND THE GREEN DOOR, this fine combination of explicit sex and shoot 'em up thrills gets little respect even from genre fans. This is largely due to the brutal nature of the film's numerous rape sequences, commendably NOT of the 'they may protest at first' variety. The story's well detailed in the other comment you'll find here, so I won't go into that. Most of the performers here made just the one film (save for Levi Richards who made tons) and even beautiful blonde Barbara Bourbon, who turns in some effective acting as well as the proud, resilient farmer's wife fighting to protect her daughters from 'a fate worse than death', only made a handful of X-rated appearances, most memorably of course in Radley Metzger's timeless PRIVATE AFTERNOONS OF PAMELA MANN. Director "David Fleetwood" is actually sixties shlock producer Joe Robertson (THE CRAWLING HAND, THE SLIME PEOPLE, THE AGENT FOR H.A.R.M.), so the flick's inconspicuous professionalism in just about every aspect of production as well as narrative drive should come as no surprise. He went on to carve a niche for himself as 'female' (for the face value crowd) porn director "Adele Robbins" with movies like SWEET ALICE and INNOCENT SEDUCTION. You may think that this early rape 'n' revenge movie stands diametrically opposed to his later couples friendly numbers. Anyone taking the effort to sit down and watch the film in its entirety will come to realize however that the female characters (Bourbon's in particular) are well drawn, not whining victims at all, perfectly capable of righting the wrongs inflicted upon them. So give this classic its due and allow it to take its rightful place in the pantheon alongside its more renowned genre brethren.

Review: Innocent young Eugenie (Marie Liljedahl, luscious star of "Inga") is taken to an island paradise where she is initiated into a world of pleasure and pain controlled by the sinister Dolmance ("Lord of the Rings'" Christopher Lee). But when she surrenders to her own forbidden fantasies, Eugenie becomes trapped in a frenzy of drugs, sadomasochism, and murder. Can a frightened girl in the grip of carnal perversion find sanctuary in the orgies of the depraved? Jess Franco, the infamous director of "Vampyros Lesbos" and "Venus in Furs," brings you this legendary erotic classic, based on the Marquis De Sade's notorious "Philosophy in the Boudoir" and co-starring Jack Taylor (Succubus) and Maria Rohm. Presented completely uncut, this rarely seen shocker remains one of the most controversial explorations of extreme sexuality in European cinema history!
Review: think both these reviewers are exaggerating. I liked it, but not more than a lesser Richard Kern work. And the ending almost wastes it. And the ideas of naming it "Georges Bataille's Story of the Eye" (when it has NOTHING to do with the french guy oeuvre) it's bound to beget some disappointment for G.B. 's fanbase. Also, a lot of reviews talk about "shock value" (in John Waters terms ), but I found nothing shocking about it - it's a relaxing quiet movie. It's not porn, but if you're annoyed by the sight of genitalia doing things together stay away from this. - Review by Trep
Review: A program of short pornographic films, most from the 1920s, but one from around 1905, made to be shown in the waiting rooms of higher-class French brothels. Being a fan of silent film and porn, I was really interested to go see this when it screened tonight (to a shockingly large crowd) at the Seattle International Film Festival. Going in, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect--definitely some nudity, probably some posing in long strings of pearls and funny hats, some dancing around, maybe a bit of simulated sex. But no, this was full-on hardcore pornography, with close-ups and money shots and everything. I wouldn't say it was all overly arousing. But it was fascinating, and somewhat informative. The women were mostly good-looking, but not in that sleek modern way. They had bulges where modern porn stars don't, they had hair growing in places and in amounts that wouldn't be fashionable today. (Although I have to say I'm getting a bit weary of the modern no-hair look.) But what was cool about most of these films was that the people involved seemed to be having such a good time. There was a weird sort of innocent charm about the films. They didn't feel dirty so much, even though there was lots of perverse goings on--lots of nuns, a bit of bestiality (involving nuns), prostitution, some peeing, etcetera. But there was nothing cynical or ironical about them, and I appreciated that. It was all in good fun. It was almost like watching some of the really early Chaplin films, except with penetration.I was highly surprised at, and happy about, the amount of lesbianism. Almost every one of these films contained some lesbianism, often involving lesbian nuns. I was surprised because I sorta thought lesbianism was more of a modern fixation. But I guess some things are timeless. There was also a brief, small snippet of male oral homosexuality (and the one dude looked really uncomfortable and unhappy about it, and he practically leaped up and back over to the woman when the gay part of his scene was over). The highlight of the program, the one that got the crowd screaming and clapping, was a sick and twisted and hilarious animated film about a little man with a giant detachable penis running around and sticking it into things, cows, donkeys, etcetera, and sword-fighting. It was way better than the Disney stuff from the 20s.

Review: Some, they tore to pieces with a sword... Some, they decapitated with the sharp blade of a bulldozer... others, they burned to death with an aerosol torch... or they brutally crucified them... the lucky ones simply go their brains blown out. Christopher and Celia arrive on the island of Myconos for a quite winter vacation. They seem such a nice handsome couple, and they are so in love. Everyone likes them. But we are soon to discover that they are a couple of sick and perverted people, especially Christopher who thinks that God has given him the divine right to punish perversion and so he should deliver the innocent local people purified from the evil brought to the island by the foreign tourist who flock to Myconos throughout the year. No one escaped!!
Review: Unlike the typical Hong Kong Category III fare, this movie is actually very light in the nudity department. It is actually a pretty entertaining movie in its own right, depicting how a young and innocent concubine becomes one of the most powerful and deadly woman in Chinese history.
Review: A slave owner in the 1840s trains his slaves to be bare-knuckle fighting champions, unaware that his daughter is having an affair with his top fighter.

Review: The scene is a pre-French Revolution Bastille, where various political prisoners are being held: a woman who was raped and impregnated by the king, a police chief who was accused of selling bad pork, and the Marquis, who was unjustly accused of working for the overthrow of the king. The Marquis is only interested in writing his deviant stories, while his penis yearns for a little action (they argue about this frequently), the prime candidate being the jailer who likes to be buggered. The corrupt priest arranges to have the pregnant woman raped by the Marquis so they can claim the king had nothing to do with it. The priest also steals the Marquis' manuscripts and publishes them for his own profit. Things come to a head as the people rise up against the tyranny
Review: It all begins with Lina Romay dancing in chromed pants on a stage in some cheap bar. She hooks two playboys and ends up with an invitation to their midnight orgy. Her communist rock star bearded lover shows up in her dressing room and starts shouting slogans. Her husband pays her a visit. And then she talks directly to the camera, explaining to the viewer she has to get dressed for the party.
Review: A day in the lives of a hit-and-run driver and her victim, and the bizarre things that happen to them before and after they collide (sexual assault by a crazed foot-fetishist, visions of the Virgin Mary, strange chicken-foot grafting operations).
Review: When Francine (Bouchet), a prostitute, is knocked off, the main suspect, a guy named Gavalles, is sought by the police. He was one of the regular clients of the whorehouse where Francine worked, but he seeks refuge from the law, as he claims he didn't commit the crime. However, during a chase, he is decapited as his motor-bike collides into the back of a tractor-trailer. The police think that's the end of the murderer, but soon another prostitute is killed. Inspector Fontaine is put on the case, and as he begins probing around, he finds several suspicious individuals who knew the deceased women. One of these suspects is a journalist; another is a famous doctor named Waldemar; another is a criminal magistrate who was intent on convicting Gavalles for the first murder. And finally, there is Madame Colette (Anita Ekberg), the proprietor of aforesaid whorehouse. Now comes the task of figuring out the identity of the killer. And as Fontaine gets deeper into the case, the killer strikes again and again. Here's a modest giallo outing, obviously made to "cash in" on the then prolific market of horror thrillers. The general mood is seedy and low-key, and the cheap sets decorated with phony Rennaisance art are a lame attempt at adding sophistication to a hastily made film. Howard Vernon here steals the show as Waldemar, who investigates the eyeballs taken from Gavalles' corpse, mashing them to a pulp with his scalpel, as if he were to looking for peals. Nevertheless, it's good fun. Professional Humphrey Bogart look-alike Robert Sacchi plays the detective. He gives a decent performance, but doesn't live up to his mentor's standards. Actually, the film gives him very little opportunity to act, as the number of characters and constant plot twists keep him at a deadpan level. We never even get a close shot of his face. The murders are violent, but there is little bloodshed. The sound effects are rather odd; when one of the girls is murdered, it sounds as if someone is clashing cymbals. The main show here comes at the end, when we think the killer's identity has at last been discovered. However, we're in for a few surprises; and that's what makes this film worth watching, apart from seeing Barbara Bouchet and Anita Ekberg. Director Merighi was none too prolific, and he remains a minor figure in the pantheon of Italian cult cinema. He made his debut in 1957 with the melodramatic crime film "The Sun Will Return" (Il Sole Tornera'), which starred future director Roberto Mauri. He is also known for directing the 1972 spaghetti western, "They Called Him Trinity."

LOTS of trash, sleaze and hot Chinese babes getting all hot, sweaty and DIRTY in this flick so you know this baby is worth a watch!
Review: A highlight of Category III sleaze last year was most certainly the darkly nasty NAKED POISON. This is a sequel in name only, but does star the most talented girls from the previous picture, once again taking off all of their clothes and rubbing up and down on everything that moves. The plot concerns Sophia Ngan losing her memory each morning ever since her lover's murder, and tattooing clues on her body to what she discovers each day, sort of a porno MEMENTO. What she does discover concerning the murder is less important that setting up one scene after another that has no other purpose than to get everyone naked for a while. Shot on video. It's a terrible movie, but fans of Sophia Ngan will probably not want to miss it.
Review: A new brat-faced Olga recruits suburban housewives as "hostesses" for a dance hall which is really just a front for-are you ready?-a satanic cult.
Review: An unspeakable nightmare of eroticism! After having been run out of New York City's Chinatown, brothel owner Madame Olga moves her ring of prostitutes and criminals to a deserted ore mine and starts over. This is the 3rd movie in the infamous Olga series starring Audrey Campbell and it's a classic sickie! The pseudo mondo narration and the Wagner-like music gives the film an unique edge.
Review: Fascinating Audry Campbell leads the way in first Olga-flick. We're in the opium infested Chinatown where Olga's crime syndicate turns innocent girls into hookers and/or junkies. Hey, she's just trying to make a buck! Unique early S&M sleaze epic with racist voice-over instead of dialogue and annoyin' "chinese" music that get played over and over. Take the pain with the pleasure.
Review: Daniel Wu stars in this noirish suspense thriller as Calvin, a private investigator hired to record a prominent politician's sex life. But he gets more than he bargained for when the politician, Kwai Fung Ming, turns out to be an incredibly beautiful young woman to whom he's immediately attracted. Soon, he's engaged in a passionate affair with Kwai and agrees to become a double agent to help Kwai shake down the man who wanted the goods on her
Review: This is the story of the beautiful young Pervirella, played by Emily Bouffante. Set in the mythical English land of Condon, the grotesque, power-mad Queen Victoria builds a wall around the country and establishes a "Monarchy of Terror."

Pervirella is sought by various rebels, agents of Victoria, the Cult of Perv, and a trio of witches. Eventually she teams up with Amicus Reilly, a James Bond spoof played to stiff, campy perfection by the late David Warbeck. Wild adventures ensue!
Review: [b][color=green]Tagline: She brought a new meaning to the phrase, "driving a hard bargain"! [/b][/color] Moonbeam is a gorgeous nineteen year old woman, but her time is spent with her prize swine, as opposed to young men. This worries her mother, as she wants her daughter to find a man soon and of course, take the vows of marriage. The prospects seem bleak however, as she does play around with a local boy, buy he has eyes for someone else and as such, Moonbeam has minimal potential there. A plan has been put into motion however, when a traveling salesman ventures into the area and tries to con the corn-pones. Can Moonbeam's parents figure out a way to make this salesman marry Moonbeam and even if so, is this what she really wants, needs, or should even consider? In Sassy Sue, we overlook life on the Willard family farm estate, where romance problems have also taken root. Pa makes moonshine and wants to make it big as an outhouse seat designer, but he is concerned about his son, Junior. It seems Junior is more interested in the farm animals than the young ladies, which is not a pleasant prospect. Pa tries to set Junior up with some lovelies, but is Junior's heart already taken and if so, by what?
Review: This was made in Joe D'Amato's medium-budget sortporn period. The story about the relationship between a widower and his stepdaughter seems to be original but many elements of this film have clearly been borrowed from Brass' The Key and there are also signs that D'Amato must have seen Once Upon a Time in America. It is one of the rare cases where D'Amato really put some effort into trying to make a good film (mostly he's a very lackluster director). As a result, Il Piacere is one of his best films, despite a rather anemic lead actress (Miss Guzon) and an infuriatingly annoying musical score that must have been written by someone with just a couple of hours of piano lessons.
Review: 1917, the last months of legal prostitution in Storyville - New Orleans' red-light district. Hattie, a prostitute at the elegant home of Madame Nell, and her 12-year-old daughter Violet are the only ones awake with photographer Ernest J. Bellocq comes by with his camera. He takes pictures of Hattie and he fascinates Violet. Over the next few months, Nell arranges for the auction of Violet's virginity, Hattie marries and goes to St. Louis leaving Violet behind, and Violet determines to marry Bellocq. Is this idyllic or is she just a girl wearing rouge, soon to return to childhood?
Review: "Revenge of the Virgins" is a 1961 black and white B-western which concerns a tribe of beautiful topless Indians in the old west. The men of their tribe have been wiped out by the pale face. These women spend the bulk of the movie doing battle with a group of prospectors who are up to no good. Naked archery abounds.
Review: Cheung, A 23-year-old unmarried travelling scholar, stops over at a monastery, where he sights a beautiful woman. Against the rules, Monk Faben allows Cheung to stay and woo the girl, Ann-Ann. She is shy, and also is the Prime Minister's daughter, so the wooing is arranged by Ann-Ann's maid Hung
Review: Anna Battista is a young, popular, 24-year-old Italian-born International film actress who engages herself on a hectic and self-destructive spree which takes her across Europe and to America to shed her "boy-toy" image to become an "artist" in order to write and direct herself in a semi-biography movie of herself titled "Scarlet Diva." After working in Rome, and winning a presigious film award in Milan, Anna travels to Paris to save her best friend from an abusive relationship, then avoids sleazy film producers in Los Angeles, meets and falls in love with a rock star who abandons her, finds out later that she's pregnant, and begins using drugs to numb her pain at this predictament she's gotten herself into.
Review: This loose adaptation of Shakespeare's work is another costumer from exploitation magnate Harry Novak. Juliet is far from a blushing virgin, and wants to get together with that hot stud Romeo, but their parents are feuding. Everyone has sex with everyone. Novak's formula includes naked redheads and a Laugh-in approach, with lines like "beautiful downtown Verona", "sock it to me", and "here come da prince". The film was a pure delight in the drive-ins when it was released, and is still seeing distribution to this day
Review: Another seedy HK exploitation film about cops on the trails of gangsters who are operating a prostitution racket in which they kidnap and then drug women, forcing them into prostitution! Lots of cute NUDE Asian chicks and hot softcore sex make this one fun!
Review: This is the infamous Hong Kong erotic film starring Amy Yip about an ancient collection of short erotic tales. In one tale, two HOT lesbians actually make a flute disappear between themselves (It’s a HOT scene!) and in another, a guy has a horse’s penis implanted on to his own!
Review: Great 1996 sequel to the infamous "Sex and Zen" from Wong Jing! A perverse land baron sets out to bed more women than any other man in history, yet is fearful of his daughter! He locks her up with a vicious chastity device that will slice a guys penis off if he tries anything! Of course this does not curb his daughter's lusts.

This beautiful demon then learns the secret of virginity, which allows her to change from male or female, thus seducing both to their deaths. It's now up to "Ironman' to stop her. there's lots of soft sex in this, both straight and lesbian, along with an outrageous story.
Review: If you liked the first one, you’ll also enjoy this third part in the sleazy series. Women masturbate, are tied up and beaten (including having pins driven deep into their fingertips and frogs placed inside their private parts) so to force them into becoming prostitutes, a gang of perverts actually attempt to sodomize two young men(!!), and lots of nudity and sexual situations. What more could you ask for?
Review: Trouble is brewing in the Imperial Court, with the young heir to the throne caught in the middle of a power struggle between his dominant mother and the ambitious chief eunuch.

Despite the attempts by his friend, Little Li, to protect the girl, she is expelled from the palace and sold into prostitution. The love-struck Prince cannot forget his true love and searches the brothels throughout the land to find her, with outrageous and often mind blowing consequences
Review: A poor girl, a rich stud, a university student and a model -- nothing in common, except the desire to experience true intimacy. Their stories unfold and overlap as each becomes victim to their own sexual dependencies, self-perceptions and illusions. Thematically structured around issues of femininity, masculinity, virginity, rape and sexuality, each teen struggles to make sense of their own identity, reaching for ideals that represent everything they feel they are supposed to be, but are not.
Review: The versatile, beautiful Li Ching, star of the award-winning The Mermaid is director/writer Lu Chi’s damsel in distress when she found her sister Chen Ping has a cancer. But that’s just the start of this eventful erotic melodrama, which also includes potent love potions, a sexy sister, a ruthless sadist, and a gang of lusty ruffians. These sexy playgirls may not be carefree, but they are completely entertaining.
Review: Psychedelic Sex Freak is another slobbering obscurity that could only have been made in the sick, sick seventies. Eddie is a love-starved degenerate. He’s girl crazy (no girl will even look at him, that’s why he’s crazy!) Alas, Cupid has shot him in the ass. Eddie is obsessed with Nora, a mouth-watering doe-eyed little cupcake. She works in her uncle’s motel, cleaning rooms. He asks her out but she’d rather date a farm animal than Eddie. Eddie spends his time reading MEN magazine and having psychedelic wet dreams involving speeded-up naked strippers. He fantasizes about women he passes on the street. ("Lick my lollipop." he commands. "You’re the greatest, Eddie.") Things change when he buys a book on hypnotism. "Power over women, alright!" he drools. A narrator helpfully informs us about the power of suggestion, adding, "Hypnotism does not require eyes of any particular type." Poor little Nora is his first stop. He mumbles some words, does a bit of hocus-pocus and Presto! - she is soon transformed into his own personal dick ornament. Like Gumby, he bends her juicy body into a variety of lewd positions. He programs her. Every time she hears him say, "Nora, I want you", she goes into a trance and is forced to satisfy Eddie’s ugly needs. While he’s tickling her tonsils he says, happily, "This is the way I want it. I can’t cope with other women. They’re always talking." (!) Nora has mind-bending sadomasochistic dreams where she’s chained up and penetrated doggie style (woof!). Meanwhile, Eddie’s libido is out of control. Nora isn’t enough for this filthy bastard. He hypnotizes her girlfriend and they all flop into the sack for a threesome. "Serve your master" he says. I don’t know what’s stiffer, the acting or Eddie’s gigantic bone. It ends with the implication that Eddie is going to continue to get more ass than a toilet seat. Quality Filth. -Mike Accomando, Dreadful Pleasures
Review: [color=red]***SPOILER ALERT***[/color] This is an aesthetically well conceived psycho-drama, which seems built around his own (well chosen) musical sound-track (Franz Liszt romantic Concertos and Franco's own synthesized scores). Images and music combined, create a fascinating erotic atmosphere. "Sinfonia Erotica" (Erotic Symphony) is a most appropriate title for this movie. I consider it one of Franco's most ambitious and best crafted works in spite of being an "only-few-thousand-bucks-budget-production". The movie has a captivating languid pace, with slow, sudden unpredictable circling camera movements and shots from unorthodox angles. The lens cuts thru the shadows, showing mainly details of faces, bodies and objects, often reflected in mirrors. The setting is a large villa, surrounded by luscious vegetation and sunny bodies of water. The camera leads us, following the action, through rooms and corridors, whose darkness is broken by the flickering light of candles and oil-lamps, shown in close-up and out-of-focus. Distant voices, moaning, echoes and other eerie sound-effects, effectively contribute creating a morbid and hallucinated atmosphere of sensuality and corruption. The story is about Countess Martine De Bressac (sultry Lina Romay), her mental illness, her sensual obsession and her very "Sadean" relationship to her husband. She feels irresistible lust driven love for him. In return she gets rejection, psychological abuse and humiliation. Armand had engaged earlier in a relationship with an ambiguous teenager named Fiore, and completely neglects his marital duties, which drives Martine over the edge of mental sanity. During her recurring sex-abstinence triggered violent crises, she wildly caresses her body, trying in vane to quench her sexual desire. One night, she sexually assaults Norma, a young novice (beautiful Susan Hemingway). Earlier in the movie, Norma had been found wounded at the entrance of the villa and immediately "adopted" by Armand, who turned her into his favorite "pleasure-toy", to provide a touch of extra spice, during his encounters with Fiore. In a later twist of the story however, Norma and Fiore fall in love and are planning to run away. This triggers the vengeance of Armand. He discovers them making passionate love and, in a sudden burst of rage, runs his sword thru their naked bodies joined (at this point forever) in the act of love. Martine lives secluded within the boundaries of the villa, in a semi-catatonic mental state, her eyes gazing through the window towards imaginary spaces. She spends time only in the company of her lady-friend Wanda, who warns her about the criminal plans of Armand and will pay with death her loyalty to her mistress and, sometimes, briefly with her mysterious Doctor who, however, seems "playing on both sides of the fence". Martine appears not able to communicate with the real world. In her mind she hears the loving words exchanged with her husband at the beginning of their marriage. She only becomes alive during her continuously frustrated attempts to make love to Armand. She keeps getting rejected and forced back to a borderline mental state, where reality and fantasy are deeply interconnected. Relentlessly she keeps offering herself to him and finally, one night, he violently possesses her. At one point, close to the peak of pleasure, she gasps, collapses and dies or, at least so it appears. Here we get the most baffling conclusion of the story! Armand plunges into a remorseful state of despair for having killed Fiore. In spite of having reached his objective (getting rid of his wife to get free access to all her wealth), he is a broken man. One night, suddenly Martine appears like a ghost in front of him, with a deadly sword in her hand. Did she came back from death or did she faked it? She is vengeful and determined to finally settle the scores. Armand is in shock, he can't take it anymore and begs her in tears, to put and end to his misery. She runs the sword thru his throat and...Justice is delivered! In the closing sequence we see Martine with her shady Doctor, who urges her, now that "their plan has been accomplished", to forget the whole sad story and start together a new life. Does this mean that Martine was not the "victim" but really the architect of a complex plot, to turn her husband into the "actual victim"? De Sade often mixes-up the roles of "victim" and "executioner" and the "victim" has to fall to the lowest annihilation level and "die" in order to "resurrect". Or was the whole story just the product of Martine's schizophrenic fantasy? Or perhaps a dream? This is a complex, multi-layered movie, recommendable to mature and open-minded viewers and to Franco fans. The depiction of sexual situations is graphic, bordering (and frequently trespassing) forbidden territory. This "IS" a movie for grown-ups. Without the sex sequences, the movie would simply fall apart. If you decide to go for it, please beware of any edited/cut versions. They would keep you safe from nudity and sex however, they would leave you guessing, hopelessly trying to find some sense for the (at this point) loose images rolling on screen. Lina Romay is a wonderful leading lady and she delivers one of the best performances of her career. Her portrait of Countess Martine is convincing and compelling. She is sensitive, romantic, passionate, sad, wild and crazy. Her wonderful big dark eyes have a unique and natural ability to express all kind of feelings. Her sensuality is intense and overwhelming. She doesn't only impersonate the character; she really "IS" Martine De Bressac! Susan Hemingway's character is also complex. She is young and pretty and shows generously her teen body. Perhaps she also actually tried to act here, which is hard to tell since, in my copy, she gets the worst and most vulgar Italian dubbing among the whole cast. Sadly, this little gem, in spite of being an Italian co-production, probably never made it to regular theatrical release in my own native country.
Review: The color science fiction film, financed by paychecks from Mike’s day job as a photo retoucher, was Sins of the Fleshapoids (1965). Sins would stand as Mike’s best-known film and the single most significant, creatively realized example of ’60s camp cinema sensibility. Pulsating with excessive colors, Sins unfolds while the camera’s eye floats indulgently over bright flowing fabrics, jewelry, tropical plastic foliage, and platters of glowing fruit that evoke a corrupt paradise. "My specific aim was to bombard and engulf the screen with vivid and voluptuous colors," said Mike of Sins in a 1967 Film Culture interview, "because Sins is a fantasy of science fiction. So I tried to boost the colors according to its category: ‘fantastic’ or ‘unreal.’ I intentionally used a color film that when reproduced in the final print becomes ‘unnatural’ and ‘souped up,’ especially in the reds." Sins starred Gina Zuckerman, Maren Thomas, Donna Kerness, and Julius Middleman (who later became a cop). Bob Cowan, who narrated the film and chose the music, gives a jerky, deadpan performance as the lead male robot, and George steals the show as Gianbeano, evil prince from the future. The story transpires a million years in the future, after "The Great War" has depopulated the earth and ravaged the landscape. Mankind, reduced to a debauched few, has forsaken science for greedy indulgence in all the carnal pleasures afforded by art, aesthetics, and lust, leaving work to be done by a race of enslaved robots. One rebellious male robot (Cowan) tires of pampering his lazy masters and murders a human woman after a failed rape attempt, then engages in successful robot sex — the touch of fingers — with a female android. Thus the Fleshapoids join their human masters in sin ... and in procreation, as the female android gives birth to a baby robot. Although Sins is set in the future, there is a classical look to the costuming and set designs that foreshadows Mike’s fondness for an ancient, muscular, Roman sexuality that he would elaborate on in later films and in his published gay pornographic comics. Sins of the Fleshapoids played midnights for three weeks at an established theater in Greenwich Village and went on to become a staple of the underground. Mike was now able to quit his day job and live for six years off the income of his films, which included, among other things, sales of prints to museum archives worldwide and honorariums for presenting his work at university and film society screenings. (This was more a testament to Mike’s modest expenses than to any vast sums generated by the films.) Along with Anger’s Scorpio Rising (1964) and Warhol’s The Chelsea Girls (1966), Sins of the Fleshapoids remains one of the three most influential works of the ’60s American Underground, if one of the least self-consciously scandalous. It was never busted like Scorpio Rising (for a snippet of frontal male nudity), nor did it have the aura of fashionable decadence that radiated from everything Warhol attached his name to and that propelled Chelsea Girls to heights of fame and financial success arguably greater than the film’s value. (At a sold-out 1991 screening of Warhol’s film in Boston, the entire audience left during the unannounced intermission.) That Sins achieved the influence and success it did without sexual scandal or the scenester celebrity that many other underground films exploited is notable.

Review: [color=red]Tagline: The uncommon adventures of a wild nympho in search of erotic playmates... [/color] Director Findlay plays Spencer, a crippled psycho who loves lesbians, whipped cream, and feet: "I think the smell of feet gets him excited." He also fills his home with naked women who perform strange sex shows -- a girl and a corn cob, then two girls and a bunch of corn cobs ~ after he injects them with an aphrodisiac. But Spencer, like this movie, is quite out of control and soon ties a naked gal to a chair and attacks her nipples with a clothespin before electrocuting her. This does not go over well with either Maria, hired as a sex performer, or Bruno, the uh, talent coordinator, who switches Maria's aphrodisiac with a drug that makes her both paranoid and a tad homicidal. Hallucinating that the other girls are being killed by a couple in gas masks, Maria freaks and attacks Spencer with a barbecue fork... All this and a surprise ending.
Review: Fondly referred to as "THE PIG FUCKING MOVIE" (with good reason), this Belgian-lensed art-dirge is one of the most foul and pretentious pics ever made. It's so damned bizarre that simply detailing the plot can't even come close to conveying the unique combination of utter disgust and absolute boredom you register while viewing it. One thing is certain--director/writer/photographer/editor Thierry Zeno is a certifiable maniac. This stark, ultra-crude b&w nightmare is almost devoid of dialogue and is set on a secluded rural farm. Dominique Garny stars as a middle-aged guy who's already pretty strange at the outset, attempting to put plastic Baby Doll heads onto pigeons. But that's pretty minor once you realize he also has a thing for pigs! It's at this point where Zeno begins to lose his audience. You see, it's lonely all by yourself, with nobody but you and your all-too-willing farm animals. And Miss Piggy has such firm nipples (yeah, you actually see him fondling 'em) and such a delectable "Oink". Plus, the two have so much in common. He eats, he shits. The pig eats, the pig shits. Hell, it's a match made in heaven. Thankfully, Zeno never gives us any close-up penetration--just the farmer leaping into the sty, grabbing onto the pig's love handles, and thrusting his naked body against her backside (and if you think about it, isn't that really enough?). I just hope that Zeno wasn't trying to say anything profound, because although it's dead serious and sick as hell, I couldn't stop laughing at all this bold-faced ridiculousness. For ten minutes we get this moron stumbling about his pathetic spread, doing his chores. And then suddenly, he's fucking the livestock! Eventually the sow has a litter of piggy babies, and after watching Mr. Green Genes play with his offspring for about 20 minutes, he decides to strangle the babies and bottle their remains. This causes Mama Pig to fall over dead, and the finale is particularly touching, when the bloke goes even squirrelier and starts eating his own shit. Now, if I've made this movie sound at all entertaining, then I've failed in my review, because despite its truly repellant subject matter, it's also one of the most monotonous movies ever made. Even the Fast Forward button didn't help. Though the movie occasionally approaches an ERASERHEAD-like effect, with its subversion of normal reality in favor of one's darkest fantasies, that would be giving it too much credit. Complete with shrill sound design and unrelentingly grim mood, I can only assume Zeno was trying to corner the market in sluggishly-paced art films for people who enjoy sodomizing swine. Congratulations. He succeeded.
Review: Based on the infamous novel by Leopold Sacher-Masoch this fine film follows the perverted passions of a young couple as Severin (Régis Vallée) watches the beautiful Wanda (Laura Antonelli) writhing naked amongst furs.

Review: Presented here are three "untold stories" from the classic Chinese Novel: Water Margin: "Jinx": Madam Sun is a woman who always thirsts for sex. However, her husband Cheung Ching is impotent, yet clever enough in developing a drug that can heal his shortcoming; "Prodigal": Yin Ching is a martial arts master who knows how to achieve victory with each part of his body, except for his most private part, until a prostitute teaches him a most important good lesson; "Black Whirlwind": Li Kwai is thwarted by his own fame. Faked whirlwinds are everywhere looking to take advantage. A lustful girl is wise and fortunate enough to play dirty, with both impostors, as well as our genuine hero.
Review: From the director of CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST, Ruggero Deodato, comes this amazingly sleazy film starring a wonderfuly sleazy John Steiner as George, a ruthless businessman interested only in money and brutal sex. His credo: “There’s no pleasure without pain”. He picks up a young beauty (Barbara, girlfriend of Cliver) at a local art gallery and invites her to dinner. Instead of the young Barbara, Cliver arrives at George’s table. Barbara brings Steiner’s girl, Silvia, to the dinner and claims to be her best friend.

Also stars Silvia Dionisio and Elizabeth Turner. Written by Gianlorenzo Battaglia and Lamberto Bava. Screenplay by Grango Bottari and Fabio Pittorru. (1982) In English.Two carefree youngsters, Irem and Barbara, are invited for a weekend cruise on a yacht owned by Giorgio, a ruthless and cynical industralist, whom is married to Silvia, a disturbed woman whom allows herself to be physically and mental abused by this devil-may-care man.

Review: This film received only a minor release in the United States in a shortened and dubbed version and was shown intact only at some touring museum series many years later. That is a shame considering the stature of the two leading performers, Anna Magnani and Giulietta Masina, both of them great ladies of the Italian cinema. Their performances are riveting. NELLA CITTA' L'INFERNO is about an innocent housewife (Masina) who is falsely convicted of theft and is sent to a women's prison in Rome. There she is tutored in the ways of crime by her expert cell-mate (Magnani) and must live amid a company of prostitutes, murderers, and thieves. Their effect on her is not a positive one. Renato Castellani directed this lively piece, and Roman comedian-actor Alberto Sordi has a small role in it.
Review: Eight women miners get fed up with their lifestyle and decide to try crime. After successfully pulling off a jewelry store robbery, they are busted by narcs when they try to buy cocaine. The eight get sent to a prison where a butch head guard (Georgia Morgan) uses the prisoners for her own deviant pleasures. Two of the women (Sherri Vernon, Dixie Lauren) manage to escape and then get mixed up with a shah who had a scarab ring stolen in their jewelry heist. Director ted Mikels appears as Leo the Fence, who is killed by one of the women who stabs him repeatedly with her spiked heel
Review: 99 WOMEN... behind bars -- without men! This flick was made a year after the notorious "Love Camp 7", and it ain't as nasty as that and compared to Jess Franco later WIP sickies like "Sadomania" - "99 Women" is kinda tame but there's plenty of cheap thrills, groovy broads and Herbert (Mark Of The Devil) Lom in top form! It's also a wellmade film with a fun (yet dated) soundtrack. The infamous UK censors cut over 30 min. of the running time, so get the uncut version!
Review: Young women in the Amazon are kidnapped by a ring of devil-worshipers, who plan to sell them as sex slaves. Some of the women escape, but are pursued into the jungle by their captors. The women must band together to turn the tables on their kidnappers.
Review: Tim Kinkaid (who once directed pornographic films under the name Joe Gage) delivers a hot and steamy prison drama, starring an arsenal of sexy women and one seriously butch warden with a German accent. Most of the lovely ladies holed up in the New York Female Juvenile Reformatory swear they're not guilty. But with checkered pasts that include rape, drug use and teen pregnancy, these first-time felons aren't as innocent as they seem.

Review: The story of Kat Stanton (Kidman), an Australian woman searching for her father who, whilst travelling back from London to Australia via Thailand, makes friends with Arkie Ragan (Ehlers), a photographer. Kat is tricked into carrying some luggage through Thai customs for Arkie, only for the police to find drugs in his bag. Kat is sentenced to spend time in the horrific "Bangkok Hilton" prison, where she makes friends with fellow inmate Mandy Engels (Smithers), who has been sentenced to death. Whilst she endures the terrible conditions inside, Kat's lawyer Richard Carlisle (Weaving) and ex-patriot Hal Stanton (Elliott) battle with the authorities to have her freed.
Review: The first Franco/Erwin Dietrich effort is probably Franco's most exploitive film with numerous sadistic scenes of torture and perversion. A true exploitation masterpiece that only a director like Franco could make. Maria (Lina Romay) is sentenced to prison for life for killing her father that attempted to rape. She is sent to a special section of the jail know for it's cruel and sadistic treatment of prisoners. The wardress (Monica Swinn) is a sadistic lesbian who knows no mercy and takes pleasure in her job. Maria seduces a male nurse who she eventually kills in order to spring an escape from the hellhole. A must for all fans of sadistic WIP films and for Jess Franco addicts. Also stars Franco regulars Paul Muller, Martine Stedilm and Eric Falk.
Review: In a prison, women rebel against the guards' sadism and sexual abuse and decide to run away. Some manage to escape and are chased by the Police.
Review: Roger Corman produced, Jack Hill directed sequel to The Big Doll House. Filmed in the Phillipines for $125,000. Pam Grier plays a rebel who goes into a prison camp to get chicks for the cause. All inmates are forced to work in a Sugar Cane Mill. Not as groovy as the The Big Doll House, but enjoyable none the less. Pam wrote and sung the theme song.
Review: 'The Big Doll House' may not be the first women in prison movie of the 1970s but it was one of the most influential, kicking off the short lived but legendary Made-in-the-Philippines-but-set-in-some-nameless-Banana-republic cycle. The tape I watched was part of "The Pam Grier Collection" but to say Grier is the STAR of this movie is an exaggeration. Judy Brown is the star and Roberta Collins is equally important as Grier. But Brown didn't do all that much after this, and Collins is only remembered by exploitation buffs (for 'Caged Heat', 'Death Race 200' and 'Eaten Alive'), while Grier became a blaxploitation icon. That's cool, but let's not fool ourselves here. As enjoyable as it is watching Pam in this one she really doesn't do all that much. Jack Hill regular Sid Haig ('Spider Baby') has some memorable and amusing schtick with her. He plays a horny guy who brings the female prisoners food and other treats for cash. Grier and Haig obviously made a great team, and Hill would exploit this in his even more enjoyable 'The Big Bird Cage', which isn't a sequel to this movie as many seem to think. 'Bird Cage' is the better movie, but 'Doll House' is still a pretty good movie that any fan of 1970s b-grade movies will get a kick out of.
Review: When two troublemaking female prisoners (one a revolutionary, the other a former harem-girl) can't seem to get along, they are chained together and extradited for safekeeping. The women, still chained together, stumble, stab, and cat-fight their way across the wilderness, igniting a bloody shootout between gangsters and a group of revolutionaries.
Review: A constant runaway is given over to the care of the state and finds herself in a remand centre for girls. She is soon caught between the uncaring bureaucracy, the sometimes brutal treatment from her peers and her own abusive family, and only one care worker sees her potential to rise above her tragic circumstances.
Review: In a concentration camp in the north of Vietnam, women are tortured until they become killing machines. The women are brainwashed to become suicide bombers. Unfortunately after the fist successful brainwashing the girls are not performing as expected and the commanders of the camp must work doubly hard to produce the results the government is expecting of them. Very soon, a deadly revolt of the women will start…
Review: A girl is caught in a drug bust and sent to the hoosegow. The iron-handed superintendent takes exception to a skit performed by the girls and takes punitive steps, aided by the sadistic doctor who is doing illegal electroshock experiments and raping drugged prisoners. After a while the prisoners put away their petty differences and plan the Big Prison Escape
Review: Trivia: The film was initially banned in the United Kingdom in 1992 by the British Board of Film Classification before being granted an 18 certificate later in the year after more than 24 minutes of cuts. Here we have a prime example of a women-in-prison film: shower scenes, the lesbian prison guard, sexual abuse of the prisoners, unlawful imprisonment, staff murdering inmates,etc. We even have a good guy and a happy ending. However, this film is way over the top, increasing the sleaze factor enormously, and having not the slightest inclination to tell a believable story. For example, both the sexual abuse and the unlawful killings are organised: the women are first auctioned to the highest bidder, then let loose in the jungle, then hunted down, then raped, and then killed. Although superficially the film is much more exploitative (more sex and more violence) than even the usual genre entries by the likes of Cirio H. Santiago, Jack Hill, or Jess Franco, the viewer is always aware that none of this is serious and that turns it around, it makes it less nasty.
Review: Linda Blair plays Carol, a young woman who must serve 18 months in prison after killing a man (by accident). The prison turns out to be brimming with decadence, corruption and sleaze, where the other female inmates are sadistic crack-selling lesbian rapists and the guards and warden are no better. Racial tensions are high as the inmates is divided into two factions, blacks and whites, who must either join together against the management or kill each other trying. A sleazy blend of sexploitation and blaxploitation make this movie a real winner.
Review: Reiko Ike stars as the daughter of a man who has been pushed into drug dealing by the local Yakuza mob. Having outlived his usefulness to the gang he is murdered and Reiko is gang raped, leading her to attempt a knife attack on the Yakuza boss (Ryoji Hayama) at a swank nightclub. Failing to kill him she ends up in prison, where she befriends a crew of other malcontents (including Yumiko Katayama and Chiyoko Kazama) and meets the Yakuza boss's girlfriend (Miki Sugimoto). Upon release Reiko reassembles her mob and launches a Machiavellian scheme to engineer a gang war between Hayama's Oba Industries and the formerly dominant Hamayasu Clan. The rival gangs begin killing each other off and Reiko works her way closer to her ultimate vengeance.
Review: Reiko Oshida stars as a young wannabe gangster tough girl, just released from reform school. She tracks down one of her classmates fathers, who runs an auto repair shop that the local Yakuza are trying to force out of business and take over, and starts working for him. At the same time a recently released from prison, and now ill Yakuza is trying to make a new life for himself and his girl, a friend of Reiko's, who also just graduated from reform school. A fateful car crash brings the two on a collision course with each other and the brutal Yakuza clan, which can only end bloody vengeance.
Review: A remote island plantation in the Philippines is run by a fascist and his squad of jackbooted soldiers. Slave ships bring in women and take out the harvest while the dictator (somehow) plans on creating a pure race. Udo Keir plays one of the soldiers who decides to kill everyone and escape the island with one of the slave girls. The subplot in which a guard is slowly killed by having a tree spider lay eggs in his neck is probably more disgusting than any disemboweling or decapitation ever could be. Not your typical "Island Women" kinda flick, in spite of the title. Surreal jungle WIP film with midgets, spiderman and vodoo. A real jaw dropper.
Review: A man falls in love with a prostitute who works in a brothel. He wants to get her out but there is no way to do that. The more he tries to help her, the more violence he witnesses and he has to fight against it. In one scene, he is attacked by a kick boxing nude amazon blonde (sic!). The second half of the film is a violent "tour de force", and as bodies are piling up during the action-packed climax, this film also becomes one of the goriest Hongkong films aside the great "The Untold Story" and the viciously funny "The Ebola Syndrome". another great review is here: https://www.rumourmachine.com/Reviews/Escape_From_Brothel.htm
Review: A women's prison camp is located deep in the tropical rain forest. Sadistic guards and a warden from hell make life almost unbearable for the inmates, and any infraction of the rules is dealt with swiftly and savagely. The camp doctor is horrified at what he sees happening, and drinks heavily to push the horror away. Finally the inmates have had had enough, and they enlist the help of the doctor to try and escape.
Review: A Japanese officer, of Chinese decent, can no longer tolerate the disdain his family has towards his political convictions and brutal ways. He decides to punish his family by imprisoning them in a war-prison where torture is the rule of thumb and all other prisoners have been brought for political reasons. The inmates though are planning their escape and with the help of the resistance will make one daring journey to potential freedom. This rare Asian Women-in-Prison film is directed by Le Ho Chang & stars Ko Chang, Dae Keun Lee, Mi Ran Jun.
Review: Matsu, known to the prisoners as Scorpian, is locked away in the bowels of the prison as revenge for disrupting the smooth operation of the prison and for her disfiguring attack on the warden. Granted a one day reprieve due to the visit of a dignitary, she takes advantage and attacks the warden again. This leads to more brutal punishment and humiliation. But the punishment gives her an oppurtunity to escape along with six other female prisoners. Their surreal flight from prison pits the convicts against the guards, the warden and each other
Review: Young women are being abducted by a gang of modern day slave traders, only to be prepared as exclusive sex toys for their "business relations" When some of the girls try to escape from their prison the gang retaliates in a brutal and vicious way.
Review: Great Japanese exploitation story featuring the incomparable Kaji Meiko ("Lady Snowblood"). Excellent cinematography and use of set pieces as well as exaggerated angles and lighting. As enjoyable as this film is, it's not the best in the series... the second chapter, also directed by Ito Shunya and starring Kaji Meiko ("Joshuu sasori: Dai-41 zakkyo-bô", aka "Female Convict Scorpion: Jailhouse 41") is a transcendent piece of filmmaking and eclipses the first film in every regard: cinematography, locations, acting, script, and music
Review: The first three "Female Convict Scorpion" movies, which are the only ones directed by Shunya Ito, are part of the same series but are entirely different entities structurally. The first one is a fairly straight-forward 'women in prison' flick, the second is a piece of great avant-garde film-making, and the third is a slow paced character study. In fact, for most of the movie it is pure Japanese drama, especially the first half, and most viewers would be hard pressed to pigeonhole the movie with just calling it an exploitation film. Not to say it is completely separate from the other two. Matsu is still her usual quiet self, albeit with a few more lines than normal, and the men are still complete scumbags. She's still running from the cops and using any pointy object she can get her hands on, but she is also keeping a steady job sewing, which is a strange sight to see for any fan of Matsu's previous exploits. She soon finds herself in a situation defending herself and two prostitutes against a local gangs, and violence obviously ensues. So is it actually any good? For most part, yes, yes it is. The pacing is definitely slower but works well with its new rhythm. It just that it really does not go anywhere with all its character development that fills the first half, and the carnage that ensues does not the fun spirit of its predecessors. Its still a very colorful and stylish film, with some really memorable scenes, but it leaves you wondering why such an otherwise energetic trilogy had to end on a period, and not the exclamation point that its avid fans had all been expecting.
Review: Yasuharu Hasebe (Black Tight Killers) took over for director Shunya Ito for this, the last Female Convict Scorpion picture starring Meiko Kaji (Lady Snowblood). The film opens with Nami Matsushima (a.k.a. Matsu, a.k.a. Scorpion) once again on the lam. The police track her down at a wedding, but she manages to escape. Badly injured, she is saved by a man who works in a strip joint and holds a grudge against the police for torturing him. Can the Scorpion trust a man again? Should she? One of the reasons Kaji decided to stop doing the Scorpion pictures is that Toei kept slashing the budget with each new installment. This film is smaller in scale and more straightforward than the first three chapters. It is easily the least of the four Scorpion films featuring Meiko Kaji; however, it is still engrossing whenever she is on the screen.
Review: Ocho is accidentally captured by a drug trafficking cartel who use Chinese women to smuggle drugs into Japan by hiding it in their vaginas. She is tortured, and manages to escape, fighting both the male yakuzas and a gang of female thieves
Review: Miko Sugimoto is the leader of the Red Helmet Gang, a biker girl gang from Shinjuku who wind up in Kyoto and make a bid to take over the local girl gangs there. Successful for a short time in ruling the streets it isn't long before Miko and her crew run afoul of the local Yakuza, and are forced to turn to Reiko Ike, a ronin Yakuza girl, and sister to one of the top Yakuza in Kyoto, for help, leading to a murderous showdown at a small coastal resort.
Review: This is René Viénet’s second film. In Girls… he continues using the situationist technique of détournement, transforming trashy Japanese porno (uses footage from Teruo Ishii’s Wild Woman Boss Story - Total Lynch (’73) and Norifumi Suzuki’s Horror High School Women - Violent Lynch Classroom (’73).) into a crypto-Marxist sendup of imperial France. Subversive Japanese Porn!
Review: Framed for the murder of a record company president in 1952 Hollywood, young, aspiring singer Aggie O'Hanlon is sentenced to life in prison and tries to adjust to her life life behind bars in a hellish womens prison where she is befriended by other "lifer" inmates who help her out when Aggie finds herself marked for murder by an unknown source who thinks she knows more about the murder than she does.
Review: This is an absolute champion of trash cinema, one that delivers the goods right along with the best of them. Anyone with a slant toward the "captive females" sub-genre should take note of "Hell Hole"...it's a depraved exercise in male chauvinism, generous on violence, and featuring more swinging udders than a dairy farm. The plot is outrageously kitsch...voluptuous babes are being kidnapped off the street and taken to a mercenary training camp on a remote tropical island. Their purpose- to provide sexual gratification to the trainees. Will their dangerous plans for escape be futile? See this super-great trash epic and find out!!! Not to be missed!!!
Review: Julia, a famous physician, discovers that her sister has been murdered by Frank Coumo, a well know gangster boss. The police are no help to Julia as they feel her death was just an accident. Julia belives otherwise and the only witness to the murder is a young woman who is locked up in prison. Julia enters the jail disguised as an inmate in order to speak to the young woman but falls victim to the sexual brutality within its walls. In an attempt to save money director Sergio Garrone shot this film at the same time and used the same locations and cast as his other woman in prison film Hell Behind Bars. Both films have tons of nudity, brutality and the required lesbian encounters and cat fights. Starring Ajita Wilson, Rita Silva, Linda Jones, Alex Frayberger, John Vincent, Lex Burton, Hellen Johansson.
Review: VIOLENT Women-In-Prison flick that features Ajita Wilson (Masturbating with a pipe!) as an inmate at a sleazy South American women’s prison where the inmates are sent to hard labor in the mines so to reduce their sentences. They are beaten, whipped, and even raped into submission. This is the UNCUT version that contains the brief XXX/HARDCORE inserts and sex scenes. This one features plenty of nudity and some good violence as well

Review: GEFANGENE FRAUEN (better known in the US as ISLAND WOMEN) is a fantastic WIP film directed by Erwin Dietrch with an amazing cast the includes Brigitte Lahaie, Karine Gambier, France Lomay, Nadine Pascal, Krista Free and Eric Falk. In a South American country the 'El President; decides he has to hide the prostitutes who work in his brothels. His plaything, Karine Gambier suggests he had the girls 'arrested' and brought to an island prison where she plays the warden who must keep the girls in line. There the prisoners are subjected to the usual women-in-prison disciplinary actions. There's an abundance of nudity in this fine exploitation film from Erwin Dietrich that has a little bit of everything for fans of Euro-Trash. How can you go wrong with a cast that includes Karine Gambier, Brigitte Lahaie and France Lomay?
Review: This is a powerful drama about a young woman who stumbles into a nightmare land of hijacking and humiliation while driving cross-country from California to New York.
Review: A group of women are kidnapped by guerrillas and forced to serve as prostitutes for them in a jungle brothel. The sadistic female warden decapitates uncooperative girls.
Review: A former female cop is framed by corrupt police, acting in collusion with the local judge, and has to fight her way out of the pen, alone, against tough inmates, and the people in charge.
Review: A sexy Category III Hong Kong period piece that tells the story of two prostitutes and how they were sold into prostitution at the brothel. One woman was screwing a neighbor while another was to teach a young prince the ways of sex and how to please a woman. Lots of softcore sex, nudity and such in this one. Hard to find as well.
Review: Three showgirls on their way to Las Vegas have car trouble and are stuck all night out in the desert. The next morning cheerful Andre (Andrew Prine) offers them help in fixing their car. However, Andre is really a maniac with a lot of family problems; his mother ran out on him when he was a child so now he keeps kidnapped women chained up in his barn and trains them to perform circus tricks. Andre's father is still around of course, but because the old homestead is next to a nuclear test site he has been transformed into a raving homicidal mutant that Andre keeps locked up in a shed.
Review: Jenny is sent to a women's reform school. It is run by evil warden Sutter and her henchwoman Edna. Jenny will stop at nothing to escape but she also has to deal with Charlie the bully.
Review: More Italian female-lockdown stuff, this time with a little more emphasis on the dramatic elements. When a woman is sent to prison after a frame-up she experiences the vileness of the slammer: Evil penguins (nuns), shower scenes, riots, and all girl group sex.
Review: After killing her husband, Nathalie Baldassari is sent to prison for 10 years. During this stay of torture, Nathalie begins experiencing mental-health problems and concentrates her hatred towards every woman. Out of prison a series of brutal killings starts in Venezia. Her last victim finds her diary and tells us the story of sexual torture! Stars Marianna Bertucci, Michelle Bond, Yunaisa Frometa, Andreas Bethmann, Michelle Lornak, Katharina Herm, Natascha Wetzig, Nathalie Balini, Carmen Koscina, Sylvia Solaris, Jörg Kopetz, Jess Franco and Lina Romay.
Review: In all the annals of exploitation cinema, there has never been anything quite like it: Take a luscious young bride (beautiful Playboy centerfold Ursula Fellner) thrust into a brutal prison camp run by a sadistic woman warden (the stunning transsexual adult film star Ajita Wilson). Add generous helpings of lesbian lust, bestial perversion and some very extreme violence. Then mix in a jaw-dropping performance by the film’s controversial director as a degenerate white slaver. Do you dare take a forbidden taste of the wildest women-in-prison movie ever made? Banned outright in the UK and available only in heavily censored versions in America, SADOMANIA is the sicko epic that could only come from the mind of Jess Franco (EUGENIE, MARQUIS DE SADES JUSTINE).
Review: Sadly this great often haunting B has all but disappeared and it is all the more unfortunate because it has the components of a immortal cult classic. Schoolgirls In Chains is the truly bizarre story of two brothers who kidnap and keep women locked in the cellar for the retarded brothers childishly sexual games. This very unusual film does beg comparision to Texas Chainsaw Massacre (with themes of cannibalism replaced with incest and necrophilia) and if for no other reason is significant for being one (among DeathDream, Blood and Lace and the later films of Hershell Gordon Lewis) of the darkest drive in films of the early 70s. Tagline: They were abducted and abused... ...but worse was yet to come!!
Review: Scorpion, part I (1998) is an loose remake of the original sleazy W.I.P. series that's based upon a popular manga. Despite the low budget values and the cheesy dialog, this movie is designed to be entertaining and it is. A woman is searching the persons responsible for kidnapping her younger sister. Ever since her disappearance, she's kept it in the back of her mind. Her past comes back to haunt her one day when a patient is admitted into the hospital where she just happens to work. The patient brags to her that he was involved in her sister's kidnapping and tells her there's nothing she could do about it. She snaps and takes care of his loud mouth. For her crimes she's sent to a women's prison. Whilst inside she's violent abused by her fellow inmates and is constantly hit on by the bi-sexual warden. However she uncovers a shocking secret whilst in lock-up. A good sleazy women in prison film filled with nudity, blood, gore and lesbian sex. You know the usual staples that you'll find in a good W.I.P. film. I enjoyed this movie and if you're into this genre you will to. Jesus Franco would be proud. Fun stuff, followed by Scorpion, part II. Beware of the one armed man!
Review: Scorpion, part II (1998) finds Lady Scorpion on the lam. She has a new identity and a new life but she wont give up until she finds out who killed her younger sister. The young lady decides to break into prison to find out some more information. Not just any prison mind you but the very one she just escaped from! She either crazy or stupid (I take a little from column A and a little from column B). Will she finds the answers to her past and will she find closure? Can Lady Scorpion bring the killer or killers back to justice? Is there or isn't their a one armed man? You'll have to find out for yourself. I wont say anymore but it's a real hoot when you find out. Not as great as part one but it's still entertaining. You can find both films one one disc. What are you waiting for? Go out and get it! Unrated but it has a lot of blood, gore and nudity.
Review: Two girls escape from an open borstal for two very different reasons; Annetta to attempt to visit her baby daughter, who is being raised in a convent; and Carol, who hopes to be recaptured and sent to a closed borstal where she knows her girlfriend Doreen is being held. Carol's plan works, although she is devastated to find that not only has Doreen found herself a new girlfriend inside (who both taunt and tease Carol), when Annetta is arrested at the convent and sent to the same closed borstal, she assumes it was Carol who "grassed" her up and proceeds to plan her revenge. Carol finds protection in the form of inmate Eddie, while Annetta's constant bullying attempts keep her in solitary confinement; however, Carol's world is turned upside-down when Eddie is released from bortsal and her protection is gone...

Review: An American track team has just arrived in The Philippines for an international competition. Among the competitors are Ginger and Pam, nicknamed "Ivory" and "Ebony", who meet up with another friend, Jackie, nicknamed "Jade".

Review: Two women who have been unjustly confined to a prison planet plot their escape, all the while having to put up with lesbian guards, crazed wardens and mutant rodents.
Review: Carlo Lizzani directs this classic Italian exploitation film from 1975. Young girls are brought into the world of prostitution where they are bought and sold like slaves. Stars Cinzia Mambretti, Lidia Di Corato, Cristina Moranzoni & Annarita Grapputo. Score by Ennio Morricone.
Review: In the wake of a Supreme Court decision to outlaw the death penalty, California passes an initiative that designates San Bruno island as a dumping spot for first-degree murder convicts, free to do what they like except leave. The main camp of convicts is controlled by the tyrannical Bobby, who rules with an iron hand, and the women are used as sex slaves. A.J. and a group of more free-minded murderers have escaped and gone into hiding. When A.J. and his men liberate the women from Bobby's custody, tensions mount to an all-out confrontation for control of the island.
Review: Three new students at a super-strict girl's school must face off with a repressive school administration, the sadistic, murderous student discipline brigade and corrupt politicians over the murder/suicide of one of their friends. They're approached by a blackmailer (Tsunehiko Watase) who promises to help them exact vengeance in exchange for setting up a corrupt local politician, and aided by a independent Yakuza biker chick (Reiko Ike).
Review: Terrible things occur daily in a remote penal camp for women well beyond the Chinese wall. The main guard of the camp runs a dictatorial regiment. The slightest offences of the inmates are severely punished and all of the women are at the mercy of the guard's brutal despotism. Betrayal and torture feed the hate of the yellow tigresses; thus the women decide to take horrible revenge. Will they be able to break out of the witches' cauldron?
Review: A group of female freedom-fighters led by Karine Levere is caught by the war-den of a women’s prison, located some-where in the South American jungle. None of them will reveal the secrets of their organisation or the names of their collaborators in the cities, so they are handed over to Dr. Costa who, after four years inactivity in Europe, is delighted to be able to practice his torture techniques once more. This movie is a bizarre mix of really sick stuff and camp humor. It would seem that even the most demented pervert could not think up the torture techniques displayed in this film, and there is plenty of blood. But the warden and the torture master are genuinely funny at times, playing their evilness like comic book villains. Some of the scenes are ridiculous and comical, and the music selection is at times very comical. This is a good thing, because it takes the edge off of the all of the hideous torturing going on. These Jess Franco movies are really something. This is a movie that I would recommend seeing at least once just so you're aware that movies like this actually exist.
Review: The young, pretty and shy Angels McDuvall is jailed for murder in some Latin American country. In the prison she gets brutally "initiated" by the other inmates. The nice, honest and handsome prison doctor believe she's innocent and tries to help her out.
Review: Must-see for erotic S&M enthusiasts; one of the best looking but meanspiritied of the S&M films; directed by Koji Wakamatsu; starring Yuki Minami and Rumiko Sato; four misogynitic and cruel stories - 1) female Christians are viciously tortured in a dungeon circa 18th century; 2) a cuckolded man beats his cheating wife and her lover; 3) during WW2 inquisition soldiers abuse female traitors with whips and wooden horse tortures; then 4) three soldiers rape and violate spies; original Japanese title GOMON HYAKU-NEN-SHI (100 Years of Inquisition Torture)
Review: Director Mou Tun-fei came to international attention as director of the controversial Man Behind The Sun in 1988. But years prior, he was known for this unremitting tale of kung-fu sadism. Yueh Hua, co-star of Clan Of Amazons and Clans Of Intrigue, tears up the screen as a corrupt magistrate, so obsessed with finding a hidden treasure that he buries his daughter alive, setting off a frenzy of destruction.
Review: Someone is stealing cheerleaders and other pretty girls and selling them to the highest bidder. Female super sexy spy Ginger is soon employed to investigate the disappearances. She does so by going undercover with a fellow agent and doing whatever is necessary to put an end to the operation and take down the leaders.
Review: Based on a true story set in pre-war Japan, a man and one of his servants begin a torrid affair. Their desire becomes a sexual obsession so strong that to intensify their ardor, they forsake all, even life itself. This is definately not your average tale this one. A story of two lovers sexually obsession. Very graphic, but not in an arousing way for the viewer (ok, not for me but i can't speak for everyone). The main character Sada is a seriously disturbed individual, her obsession with her lover amazing. As for her lover, would you let a woman who put a knife to your throat & threaten to remove your genitals if you sleep with another woman strangle you for erotic pleasure? Think this story is in the realm of the imagination, it not. This was a true story. Worth a look. Not for those easily disturbed or offended by images on film
Review: In downtown Japan, a lonely computer nerd tries to maintain a peaceful existance while being stalked by a gang of deviant homosexuals who want to use him for their brutal S&M activities.
Review: The film is not as savagely violent as the previous two movies "All Night Long 2" and "All Night Long 3",but the tone of it is definitely disturbing and depressing.It tells us about obviously disturbed Japanese individual named Yuuki who captures two Japanese girls.One of them, Reika, is brutally murdered and her captor cuts her up and takes her body parts like ears and breast.The second girl is chained to his bed and he performs a hideous experiments on her body."All Night Long R" is a rather slow-moving horror film that offers plenty of shocking violence.The acting is excellent and the killing of a Japanese boy is extremely vicious and cruel.Sometimes the film has a mood of a very sad romance.So if you're a fan of Katsuya Matsumura's works give this gem a look.
Review: When a young woman witnesses a suicide she is so overwhelmed with sexual excitement that she masturbates,unaware that she is being observed by a strange man.Later he invites her home where she is wined and dined.Soon she wakes up to find herself locked in a cage.Of course their twisted and sadomasochistic relationship will end in a sadistically explicit bloodbath...The version of "All Night Long 5" I have is in Japanese,but the above synopsis is general gist.I'm a big fan of Katsuya Matsumura and I absolutely love the first three "All Night Long" movies."All Night Long R" is also pretty good whilst still being deeply disturbing.Unfortunately "Initial O" is too long and sometimes dull,so I was a little bit disappointed.Still there is plenty of sex and some unsettling sexual torture on display.There is not enough gore,but some scenes(for example throat slashing or castration)are particularly nasty."All Night Long O" looks more like extremely dark drama/romance with surprisingly nasty edge than horror film,but if you're a fan of Japanese horror give it a look
Review: Cashing in on the boom of period sex films following the surprise success of Sex and Zen, Ivan Lai spins this bizarre erotic drama. Following the death of her father, beautiful maiden Siu-ching (Ching Suet-ngan) reluctantly sells herself into prostitution to pay off her family's debts. When the virginally lass initially balks at her professional duties, Miss Ng (Yvonne Yung Hung) -- the brothel's ruthless madam -- threatens to dunk her in a boiling pot of eels. Siu-chang quickly changes her mind, and with the help of kindly worker Yat (Dick Lau), she soon becomes familiar with the ways of the prostitute. Meanwhile, a rival whorehouse hires a white prostitution from overseas, sending Miss Ng into a tizzy; buxom Sister Bamboo (Yuen King-tan) finds herself without clients when she accidentally smothers one with her oversized breasts; and the workers in the hose band together to nab a serial rapist whose victim of choice are prostitutes
Review: High School Co-Ed takes its roots from the juvenile delinquent movie,complete with a fuzz guitar score and motorbikes. We first see the gang harassing a pompous car driver, beating him up and raping his girlfriend, the gang consisting of Muraki, his envious friend and the obligatory dumb strongman (who - in this case - is also quite impotent), who probably just got together, because there was nobody else around. When Muraki subsequently rapes the student girl Nami who impresses him with the dignity she carries the violation, he falls in love with her. Realising at the same time, that his little sister is becoming a woman and a potential rape victim too, he tries to reorganize his life - and fails.
Review: Second in the series and the second by Mr Sone and what an achievement it is. The rawness of the first is gone but this is not to say there is any less passion or vigour. Beginning with a shock sequence, this ends with an even more shocking one and for a centrepiece has a prolonged scene set in a love hotel in which the central female character, Nami, seems to turn into one of Edvard Munch's vampire women before our very eyes. This tour de force, encompassing love, marriage, passion and sentimentality concentrates more upon sexual violence and the aggression and greed of the participants. Whatever the type of relationship depicted, we are shown the same tendency towards abuse and to increase our anxiety all this is intercut with scary/sexy scenes of the making of porno movies and photo sex magazines. A challenging film that does not stop asking us questions whilst showering us with titillation, violence, abuse and fierce erotica.
Review: Just when you feel you may have, at last, some measure of Japanese cinema you find out that you do not even have the measure of this ultra extraordinary series - this being number three. Absolutely non stop and for almost a half of the time this means non stop rape sequences. Nami is investigating the consequences of rape by searching out the victims and interviewing them for her magazine. We see the enactment as she reads up on it and we see it again when the individual relates it and sometimes we see it again as Nami's fascination deepens and she begins to fantasise. For good measure we get a re-run of them all at the end as well. As well as all this the tone of the film, fairly routine at the very beginning, begins to take on a sultry sexiness, then a more stylised slant before tipping deliriously over the edge with wide scale scenes of madness, mayhem and more rape with bloody violence added in. As if it were not enough the Nami is gradually getting more sexually excited by these stories she is retelling but we discover that her new found boyfriend is estranged from his wife because she went off with her rapist! There are so many mixed messages in here I shall be interested to listen to the commentary track and also to see this incredible tour de force once more. But not for the moment, this is a very difficult and emotional ride and if I was not shaking afterwards I was certainly profoundly affected. Bold, courageous film making taken way beyond the edge and down through many murky, but not unexciting, levels of depravity.
Review: A nurse is assaulted and nearly raped by some hoodlums at her hospital. She manages to escape and runs home for comfort, only to discover her husband cheating on her. She then flees her home only to have the bad luck of being hit by a car. And then, as if things weren't bad enough, she wakes up just in time to find herself being molested by the man that hit her. Talk about a bad day. After the initial attack, the man keeps her captive and a classic case of Stolkhome syndrome kicks in, with her willingly giving into his advances. During this period viewers are treated to some graphic, if fogged-out, sex scenes that are a welcome contrast to the earlier scenes of sexual violence.
Review: Two serial killers go on a murdering rampage as one films the outcome from behind a video camera. One of the most realistically portrayed simulated Snuff films.
Review: AUGUST UNGERGROUND'S MORDUM is the follow up to the as yet unreleased underground horror classic AUGUST UNGERGROUND. Lensed in Pittsburgh on digital video, then degraded to look like “found footage,” Mordum is the story of three sick young serial killers who film their acts of violence and torture. The film is peppered with outstanding makeup effects and grisly set pieces, and the performances from Michael T. Schneider (A Tribute to Sanity), Fred Vogel (the original August Underground), and newcomer Cristie Whiles, are daring and unorthodox. The filmmakers strike an odd but compelling linear narrative, while simultaneously creating a disorienting and chaotic environment within which the three psychos wreak their madness. A fourth sicko played by Killjoy of the band Necrophagia, is introduced near the film’s climax. Horror realism at its finest, the August Underground series has the potential to become North America’s answer to the popular Japanese Guinea Pig series. Fans of confrontational cinema take notice. Mordum is a harrowing and brutal film that will surprise even the most jaded horror fan.” -Art Ettinger, Ultra Violent Magazine.
Review: Based on the novel by Virginie Despentes of the same title. Manu and Nadine lose their last tenuous relationship with main-stream society when Manu gets raped and Nadine sees her only friend being shot. After a chance encounter, they embark on an explosive journey of sex and murder. Perhaps as a revenge against men, perhaps as a revolt against bourgeois society, but certainly in a negation - almost joyful in its senseless violence - of all the codes of a society which has excluded, raped and humiliated them. Controversial for its violence and real sex scenes: a vividly nihilist road movie set in France.
Review: This film is a Chinese variation on violent American films like DELIVERANCE and SOUTHERN COMFORT. A group of teenagers on a camping trip meet up with a group of backwoods degenerates (referred to as "disco boys" in the subtitles) who rape one of the girls (watch her brush her teeth with toilet water in the hospital) and impale one of the guys on bamboo spikes. One of the locals fingers the gang who then take revenge on the guy by getting him drunk and burying him in a shallow grave. Another guy finds him and takes violent revenge on each of these drooling idiots. This is grim and bloody stuff but frenetic enough to pinpoint this as a Hong Kong film. Having one of the gang be retarded was lifted right out of I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE. One entertaining element was the wholesale unauthorized use of early 80s American pop music by Supertramp, the Police, Styx and others.Here’s an Asian I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE type film about a girl who is raped by a gang of kick scumbags and left for dead in the woods while camping. Meanwhile, her father plots for bloody revenge and the results are pretty good. One guy is dropped into a pit of stakes!! A damn’ good film!
Review: Two women attend a party in a barn, where they meet Mr. Bradley, a strange middle-aged man with a British accent.

Finding their gas tank empty, Ann and Terry walk until they come to Bradley's isolated house, where he lives with his sister Myla and a servant named Freddy. It turns out that Bradley is actually an insane mortician and that he have certain plans with his guests.
Review: In a Hong Kong villa, Lyon throws a party celebrating her win at a beauty contest. Come midnight, when her schoolmates Sze-Wan and Nam leave the party to go home, their car suddently breaks down, and six men stop by and kidnap them.
Review: David Hemmings plays Juan, a man so pissed off at being cut out of his rich father's will that he begins to take it out on his own mother (Alida Valli). His anger becomes so twisted that he takes an innocent village girl (played by sultry "Daughters Of Darkness" co-star Andrea Rau) prisoner and begins to subject her to degrading tortures until she seems to become his submissive slave. However, in reality, she is planning her own revenge!
Review: Kinky psychological smut fest about a woman dominated by her sadistic, sex obsessed husband. He likes to treat her like a whore, "pretend" to rape her and threaten her by thrusting a pistol in her pussy! As much a she hates to admit it, she kind of gets off on the whole thing but she’s determined to break free of him. So, in a twisted variation of role reversal, she seduces a naive young man and gradually manipulates him into playing the part of "her" (going so far as making him wear makeup and a dress) while she takes the role of her domineering husband and treats him like her bitch! Definitely lives up to its title and worth a look.
Review: Christopher Lee is at his cruelest as notorious 17th-century British "witchfinder" Judge George Jeffreys, who used his position to persecute and torture suspected enemies of the crown as well as those accused of witchcraft, in this sordid Jess Franco tale. Maria Rohm, Maria Schell and Howard Vernon also star. Restored version includes footage not shown in U.S. theatres.
Review: While walking in the woods, young and beautiful Silvia is brutally attacked by a masked man. She is pushed to the ground, beaten. During the attempted rape she escapes her violator and flags down a passing car. She flees thinking that she has become free from further humiliation. But her driver; Claudio has different plans for this youthful beauty. Claudio, a former photographer for an Italian newspaper, has been driven mad by the images he was assigned to photograph. Delirious scenes of death, carnage and despair resonate in his fractured mind. He is obsessed with capturing images of female bodies in states of humiliation. He discharges his neuroses on hapless young models and has chosen to fill his viewfinder with sexual degradation.
Review: Closely follows the template set by Daughter Of Darkness, right down to using the same lead actors in the same or similar roles. Ng Doi-Yung & Lily Chung again play the young lovers. Ho Ka- Kui again plays the bad guy and Anthony Wong & Money Lo play lawyers instead of cops. The whole family is afraid of Wah (Ho Ka Kui), and with good reason. He threatens to kill his parents, throws his wife around violently, beats up anyone whenever he feels like it, snorts cocaine, punches his brother, sexually assaults Toh's girlfriend Jenny (Lily Chung), and even rapes his mother. And just in case you fail to pick up on this guy being a complete demonic bastard, he rams home the point by yelling almost all the time, laughing manically, and singing about drugs and sex as he indulges. Much of the story is told in staggered flashbacks during a murder trial. There is some tension early on, but this completely evaporates when it becomes clear that the deceased is the completely-evil Wah. After that, you can be assured that nobody would find guilty the tormented younger brother Toh, who stands accused. The stunningly beautiful Lily Chung has some erotic, though sometimes violent scenes. Her acting is unrestrained nicely balances the deadpan Ng Doi-Yung. An interesting and original category III film, although the violent content may offend some viewers.
Review: An abused autistic boy is the sole witness to the kidnapping of a teenage heiress. Tagline: It started as such a simple crime. For 16 year old Candy, dying would have been easier! Was a piece of Candy worth a fortune in diamonds?
Review: One of the most infamous Category III films, CHINESE TORTURE CHAMBER STORY pulls the viewer in multiple directions at once, freely mixing stomach churning sadism and over-the-top gore with exuberant softcore sex and comedy ranging from childish to incredibly bizarre. Maiden Little Cabbage is brought before the local magistrate, after she is found covered in blood beside the dead body of her husband, Got Siu-tai. The man died after consuming a kind of super aphrodisiac which caused his already immense penis to explode! Flashbacks reveal how Little Cabbage was hired to be a maid in the home of scholar Yang Ni-mu. After accidentally catching her mistress cheating on Ni-mu with the evil Lau Hoi-sing, Little Cabbage was married off to the homely Siu-tai (whose member is so huge that ejaculation could prove to be fatal to his partners!). When Hoi-sing tries to take advantage of Little Cabbage, he is severely beaten by Siu-tai, setting in motion the events that led to the present court case. Produced using sets and costumes left over from the Stephen Chiau comedy HAIL THE JUDGE, this Wong Jing production can be accused of a lot of things -- but few would call it boring. Particularly memorable is a send-up of the pottery wheel scene in Ghost, accompanied (as in the American film) by "Unchained Melody," played here on Chinese instruments (after witnessing what goes on here, you'll never be able to think of that song again without laughing and / or wincing)! Also unforgettable is a sex scene between C-III regulars Elvis Tsui and Julie Lee. Playing martial arts masters, the two engage in wild, gravity-defying sexual stances like "Invincible Mouth," "Oral Attack," "Invincible Wheel," and "Wonder Screw," with their superhuman pelvic slamming accompanied by video game-style sound FX! Obviously not for all tastes, the film can be marginally enjoyable if approached in the right frame of mind (assuming that is at all possible) but some all-too-serious misogyny, torture, and sexual violence make parts very hard to endure and negatively color the entire experience. Director Bosco Lam went on to write the original story for VIVA EROTICA, and clips from TORTURE CHAMBER appear in that film during a sequence where Leslie Cheung and Law Kar-ying go to the movies. The unrelated (and far less financially successful) CHINESE TORTURE CHAMBER STORY II followed in 1998.
Review: A pair of country thieves make friends with a general rising within the imperial army. After the general finds himself falling in love with the beautiful sister of one of the thieves (who is the fiancee of the other) he decides to do whatever it takes to get rid of the competition and have her for himself. Viewer discretion advised: this film contains extreme violence and sexual situations.
Review: CONCRETE is based on Jôji Atsumi's non-fiction novel JUUNANA-SAI: AKU NO RIREKISHO (the tagline for it, "Seventeen, Evil Resume", is a translation of the book's title). It tells the real-life story of how, in 1989, a group of male youths in Tokyo, ranging in age from 16 to 18, abducted a 17-year-old highschool girl, raped and otherwise abused her for 41 days, then murdered her. They put her corpse into a 50-gallon oil drum, filled the drum with concrete - hence the movie's title - then dumped it in a reclaimed land area.

Review: Violent and grim HK Category III film has police captain Anthony Wong on the trail of a psychotic killer. It turns out that the killer is a young woman who was abused by her family: She was picked on by her sister, her brother threatened to pimp her out for money, her mother humiliated her, and her sicko father raped her! This is a very gloomy and depressing film that contains rough scenes of violence, nudity and graphic rape so be warned!
Review: Daughter of Darkness 2 (1994) was another gruesome case involving a woman who's a sole survivor of a brutal massacre. A local constable questions the woman about her whereabouts and what might have happened the night before. As he gets the young woman to talk, she spins a tale of debauchery, madness and people so vile that you wished that they'll never see daylight again. Why is this woman so reluctant to talk? Who else might be involved in this ghastly murder? How will this bumbling cop get any solid leads or useful clues from this shell shocked woman? Too find out you need to find a copy of this Category III sex and gore fest DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS. Ivan Lai made this film to capitalize on the success of his last film DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS (1993). None of the main players from the first film appear in this one. The movie is even more depraved and vicious than the first one. If you love Category III films then you need to watch DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS 2. It'll make your stomach churn!!

Review: Jean Rollin's surreal pirate film takes place on land amidst the skeletons of beached and plundered ships, the legacy of a cutthroat band of "wreckers" who lure ships into the shallows. When a pair of survivors, young girls glowing in white nightgowns, wander through the shallows seeking help from the merry quartet, they are summarily molested, beaten, and left for dead. Like in many of Rollin's films, the story doesn't make much narrative sense--the girls escape to the haunted ruins where a woman in clown makeup cares for them and a mysterious magician gives them the power to take their revenge in return for sex--but the logic takes on a dreamlike quality appropriate to the gorgeous and bizarre imagery. In a strange tavern adorned with skeletons (and a man playing with a Dracula doll!), the Captain is haunted by visions of the girls as white-faced specters. A search for the girls amidst the rotting hulls of old ships culminates in a fiery inferno that burns spectacularly against the night sky. Meanwhile well-endowed costar Joëlle Coeur strips at the slightest suggestion, frolics and bounces on a bed, and runs around the beach topless while hunting the girls. Rollin's strange little film, a ghost story without ghosts, rambles on a little too long before it culminates in a self-destructive frenzy and ends on a sad, serene note.
Review: COOL N’ SLEAZY 1995 Category III film (This means its NC-17 or a soft X!) has a demented killer stalking, raping and killing prostitutes as he wants them to reincarnate and become better beings. I think most everyone will enjoy this one as there’s plenty of gore, mutilations, dismemberments, full-frontal nudity featuring pretty Asian girls, rape, body parts and blood spewing everywhere! The guy even keeps body parts of his victims including breasts and genitalia as souvenirs for his “Doll”! This baby also has a mean and nasty “FEEL” and atmosphere to it with dim lighting and weird visuals so this is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and is actually quite hard to find!
Review: An abnormal taxi driver lusts for blood every rainy night, and several young women are killed as a result. The muderer, Laiu, likes to take photos of the victims dismembered bodies as momentos. Inspector Lee is called onto the case in this bizarre thriller.

Review: We've seldom seen such a mixture of disturbing violence and heartrending visual poetry as in this film by Koji Wakamatsu. There is but so much you can do with the story of a woman who is kept prisoner in an apartment; where she is repeatedly humiliated, beaten and tortured by her psycho boyfriend. His sick, twisted mind is torn between tender feelings for his prisoner and the violent impulses that make him torture her.
Review: Enterprising local news anchor Jane Harris (Lauren Tewes) discovers that one of her neighbors is actually the serial killer/rapist who has been terrorizing the city. Jane must prove her suspicions before the killer gets to her. Jennifer Jason Leigh plays Jane's deaf and blind sister, Tracy.
Review: Koyu Ohara,who directed hilarious nunsploitation flick "Wet and Rope" and shocking "Zoom Up:Rape Site",made also this softcore torture film.Naomi Tani and Rei Okamoto play victims of the Japanese military's World War II Inquisition division,the Kempe.Sadistic Judge Murayama (Hirokazu Inoue)captures both and brings them to his private torture chamber for some sado-sexual humiliation."Fairy in a Cage" is a stylish S&M oriented pink with plenty of sleaze and depraved Sadean atmosphere to boost.The direction by Koyu Ohara is crisp and the acting is great."Fairy in a Cage" was followed one year later by slightly inferior and less interesting "Rope Hell".
Review: Fantasy and reality become blurred as a misogynistic, masked killer ritually stalks and kills beautiful women who he has encountered previously.
Review: Ho hum, it's not as if the first two were that good but this is a really lazy effort. It actually begins very well indeed and the credit sequence is probably the best thing in it. There are a couple of other 'interesting' scenes of course but there is far too much, so called humorous conversation among the many men who keep their clothes on. And the cardinal sin here is that after faltering and literally at one point coming to a complete stop we proceed towards a most disappointing climactic scene! This film if it deserves to be called such and not just a series of part completed scenes eases to a halt halfway through and then slowly goes downhill. Despite the supposedly surprise twist the second half is desperate stuff. That means that there is about 25 minutes of fairly sensational sumptuous naked flesh and bloody violence and the rest mundane to appalling. Did I mention the editing and the dialogue!?
Review: He’s a Hong Kong propaganda/PARANOIA film that has to be seen to be believed! A young homeless girl is raped on the streets and learns hey, she can use her body to make money so to eat.

Later, its discovered that the women is a carrier of the AIDS virus and the man has himself checked but its too early (thus the film tries to illustrate it takes several months for HIV to be detected!) and he comes out clean..But later he gets it and it causes a lot of problems! Meanwhile, this chick is screwing everyone in town, passing on the AIDS virus and causes general mayhem. Hell, the guy’s BABY SON also contacts the AIDS virus! The film also depicts people with AIDS as rabid dogs as the girl breaks lose from a prison of all places (!!) and scratches, spits and even throws BLOOD at police officers! THIS IS A FUCKING MUST SEE exploitation film here folks! MORE shit happens but hell, I could write a book on this baby! Just watch it for yourselves as I don’t want to ruin this fine piece of Hong Kong stereotypical trash!!

Review: This one proves that it's all a big fake, and the myth of the Guinea Pig movies being actual snuff is not true. The girl from "Devil's Experiment" laughs while her flesh gets twisted. The guy from "He Never Dies" longs to take the latex applications off.
Review: Ardent update on, 'I Spit On Your Grave' and could easily have used a corruption of that film's alternative title and been called, 'Day of the Women'. This has all of the revenge and only mentions the male violence in passing. It might be considered a slightly less exploitative approach but I don't think so. The most repeated line in this film is, 'Shut the f*** up' and this bunch of ladies are no role models for a decent society. Basically we have beaten housewives forming a go-go club and in their spare time ridding the country of it's rapists. The poor picture quality does not help and encourages the feeling that this is just all a little too amateur in execution and conception. It's violent and gory and if just seeing foul mouthed girls with guns is enough then you'll enjoy this more than I. Brave effort nevertheless.
Review: A very weird exploitation flick. The whole film seems to centre round a group of dominating male chauvanists abusing young Japanese models after a photo shoot. After which they are butchered one by one by a mud covered nutter with a gigantic penis who lives in a wharehouse.
Review: This is a story about a pretty psychologist (Megumi Ozawa) who is raped, murdered, and dismembered while trying to avenge the suicide of a patient who was raped by a Yakuza gangster.

Review: Off the wall and violent Japanese torture type film about sadistic men who beat their wives in brutal detail!

Review: Translated into English as "The House on the Edge of the Park", Casa sperduta nel parco is a morbid tale that serves as a follow up to "The Last House On The Left". The gruesome plot revolves around two sociopathic young men who own a shop. One night after attacking a girl, they crash the high-school party she was headed to. The two men take the party hostage, attacking, killing, molesting, and abusing the hormone crazed teenagers in attendance. During the course, a girl convinces one of the men to turn his ways around, a callback to Mari's unsucessful attempt in "Last house on the left".
Review: This is it: one of the most talked about cult films ever made--a maniacal masterpiece of the macabre, the martial arts, and the just plain weird. Shaw's first international star, Lo Lieh, stars as the insane swordsman who makes Chinese lamps from--yes--the skin of his enemies' sisters, mistresses, and wives! Although insanely conceived, it is beautifully filmed and unashamedly performed by a first-rate cast of sext starlets and kung fu favorites.

Jennifer is raped a further two times, her novel is destroyed also, she then begins to seek revenge on the men who raped her
Review: The movie starts from the first second with some pictures off what some bizarre stuff you're in for. The cooking of a woman who betrayed her husband. The hanging and cutting in 2 off a betrayer of the `Koga' clan. And who also served at that same moment to test out (on his body) some new swords. And the burning of a woman. So in other words the movie cuts to the chase from the first second. The movie then continues with the story of the `Tokugawa Sjogoen' clan, which had a severe punishment system to protect her own feudal system. As the torture they used against Christians that consists and goes up to a serious gruesome level.
Review: Injure Murder Rape Film, an extremely rare asian movie that plays out like a truly demented version of the All Night Long Series.Two maniacs go on a rape spree, brutally battering their victims with a baseball bat repeatedly before raping them and then battering them again until their vicitm is dead (hence the title of the film)... but this time they picked the wrong girl..she extracts a harrowing and bloody revenge on the people that violated her... Very violent and distressing movie from Asia that reinforces the Nihilistic messages of the all night long series and couples it with scenes of extreme and unrelenting violence. Contains violent scenes such as a double penetrated injured woman losing her guts while the guys rape her. This is the new generation of gore films from Japan. Their mixing of sex and violence to unprecedented heights.
Review: Period piece set during the Inquisition about a witch-finder general who falls in love with the village beauty, who has made a pact with the devil to seduce and condemn the man who is killing off satan's servants.
Review: Kichiku is an extremely rare piece of filmmaking: a thought-provoking film that makes its point by using the tools of the exploitation movie. A head being blown in half with a shotgun, a penis amputation, decapitation by samurai sword, rape, etc. Kazuyoshi Kumakiri doesn't shrink back from gore or violence. However, Kichiku is not about showing creative kills. It is not a collection of graphically violent acts, a freak show along the lines of an 80s slasher film. What makes it so shocking are the reasons behind the violence; the group dynamics, the miniature society of the student group that degenerates beneath the surface. A degeneration that goes unnoticed by everyone until it's too late. It is a very real danger for a society that has turned hierarchy and the group unit into an ideal.
Review: Bizarre and VICIOUS Japanese horror-type film about a psychotic woman who becomes leader of a gang of radical political terrorists/thieves and demands absolute loyalty!

The victims' parents found out that they murdered their daughter, get them drunk, and murder them in strange yet painful ways.
Review: For an hour or so, A Living Hell is a remarkable piece of work, as 28-year-old writer-director-editor-performer Shugoo sustains a jagged, hysterical mood that traces the lethal razor edge between terror and humour. The basic situation is straight from those sweat-and-blood-soaked bad dreams where we’re attacked in our homes by vicious, unstoppable, inescapable foes. This is the fate that befalls Yasuto (Hirohito Honda), a surly twentysomething confined to a wheelchair (by “anxiety”!) and thus largely trapped in the nondescript suburban house he shares with his inattentive family. It isn’t a large dwelling, and feels even more cramped than usual when a pair of distant relatives suddenly move in: elderly crone Chiyo (Shiraisihi Yoshiko?) and her apparently autistic, mute daughter Yuki (Rumi). Yasuto’s instinctive dislike of the new arrivals is soon justified, the pair wasting no time in subjecting the lad to an apparently motiveless campaign of mental and physical abuse that rapidly slides into torture…
Review: Hard to find and rough 1987 Japanese S&M trash directed by Hisayasu Sato. A demented pervert lures schoolgirls back to his place where he then ties them up and tortures them with a vibrator, which causes them to spit up blood and finally choke to death (All of which he photographs). One of his victims actually learns to like it and decides to join him on his perverse adventures by luring her schoolgirl friends back to his place where she then helps dish out the abuse! Really depraved Nikkatsu-type stuff that’s definitely worth the watch as there’s plenty of abuse, some nudity, stabbings, etc…
Review: This rare film from screenwriter Ernesto Gastaldi (who wrote the screenplays for quite a bunch of memorable Gialli such as "Perchè Quelle Strane Gocce di Sangue Sul Corpo di Jennifer?" and "Il Tuo Vizio e una Stanza Chiusa e Solo Io ne ho lo Chiave") starts like a typical revenge movie in the tradition of "Deliverance" or "Last House on the Left" (which was made a year after this one, actually). A married couple drive to a lonely house by the sea. It becomes clear very soon that the marriage has the best days behind it. After the first night, the couple gets "visited" by a motorcycle gang consisting of four men. They tie up the husband and two of the bikers rape his wife. After this, the viewer understands that two of the gang are rather philosophical characters (the leader, who is the first rapist, and his best pal), while the other two are the more clichéd violent type that do it mainly for fun. Best thing is that the raped woman falls in love with the leader of the gang. So trouble is brewing not only between the couple and the bikers, but also between husband and wife and within the gang.
Review: TF Mous' unique style of exploitation kicked off with this grim gem which centres around the unfortunate travails of a group of Chinese boat people who arrive in Hong Kong by stealth and are immediately targeted by low-level people traders. The director of the superb MEN BEHIND THE SUN and the equally downbeat BLACK SUN has a knack for legitimizing his sex and violence with politically and culturally sensitive subject matter. This Shaw Brothers production, produced in 1980, bears the admirable hallmarks of Mous' later work. The action is well staged, the set-ups are creatively photographed, and the pacing is brisk. There is a solidity and sharpness present in the work of this fine director that places him in the top ten per cent of exploitation masters. He has more in common with Japanese pinku directors such as Teruo Ishii than his Hong Kong contemporaries such as King Hu, Chang Cheh and Jimmy Wang Yu. His art is gruesome, extreme and almost fetishistic in its intensity. The "lost souls" of this cinematic bad dream are a ragged group of male and female refugees who find themselves shackled in a makeshift prison run by a bisexual warden and his rape-loving cohorts. The women, in particular, are subjected to a Marquis de Sade-approved catalog of abuse and torture. The male of the species doesn't get off lightly, either; one character is graphically sodomized with an intensity that is rare for any Hong Kong film, let alone one greenlit by Run-Run Shaw (bless his adventurous hide!). There is a surplus of lurid nudity (I'm not complaining, mind you) and much bloodshed and general nastiness. Everything is lovingly lensed in appropriately grotty locations and Mous never gets shy about his more extreme depictions or the sexualization of the abuse. In fact, it's quite clear that Mous revels in the sadistic excesses of this less-than-cheerful exercise and I, for one, respect him for it. Mous' cinema is a cinema of transgression masquerading shamelessly as social comment. One can only admire such audaciousness.
Review: A woman looks to a cop for help against her abusive husband, who constantly rapes, beats, and belittles her and her son, but the husband catches wind of the cop's plan
Review: Udo Kier is a witch hunter apprentice to Herbert Lom. He believes strongly in his mentor and the ways of the church but loses faith when he catches Lom strangling Reggie Nalder to death for calling him impotent. Kier begins to see for himself that the witch trials are nothing but a scam of the church to rob people of their land, money, and other personal belongings of value and seduce beautiful big breasted women. In the end, the towns people revolt, Herbert Lom escapes and poor Udo is tortured to death by the towns people with the his own torture devices. This film contains very strong graphic torture including a women's tongue being ripped out of her head, nuns being raped(in the opening credits), and lots of beatings.
Review: Seventeenth century "witch finder" tortures local women in Church's name. Stylishly mounted horror film is a cult favorite, though squeamish viewers should steer clear, due to extremely graphic torment scenes.
Review: In the spring of 1945, Japan established a secret base, Unit 731 in Manchuria, where many innocent Chinese, Korean and Mongolian people were killed in grotesque experiments. An idealistic young doctor , Morishima, is horrified by the experiments being performed in the camp and when his fiancée arrives disguised as a Chinese prisoner he sets out to liberate the camp. A docudrama sequel to the notorious Men Behind the Sun, which pulls no punches when it comes to delivering the shocks!
Review: It's not often you hear about the Japanese atrocities committed against the Chinese. Black Sun : The Nanking Massacre unflinchingly tells the true story of the over 300,000(that's 300,000!!!!) Chinese people who were brutally killed by the occupying Japanese army. Mixed with real film footage and photographs of the actual events, the film really shows the atrocities of war. It's mostly told from the Japanese point of view, and several conversations between Japanese commanders and soldiers are chilling. There are some exploitative gross out moments, like an unborn baby being pulled out of a pregnant woman's stomach via bayonette...but it always feels true. There are so many scenes of crowds being machine gunned down that you can be desensitized pretty early on in the film. The scary thing is, is the Japanese really WERE this barbaric. They slaughtered babies, infants, children, women, men and monks alike. The scene of hundreds of bodies being burned on the beach is a truly haunting moment. While it is an absolute must see for war film fans or historians...the film, however, is gory enough to make splatter fans happy.

Review: From that one vhs bootleg thing in some warm place : The Japanese have taken their horror films to the next level. This film is their new chapter since Guinea Pig. It's about a reporter searching for a snuff film and she finds it.She does the 8 mm deal an ends up a victim. This film is totally fucked up and should only be viewed by sicko's."
Review: Simon Yam plays a computer nerd obsessed with Michelle Wong, a local anchorwoman. Eventually, Yam breaks into her home and proceeds to torture, humiliate, and rape her!
Review: Eiji,a young scientist invents serum called Myson which transforms the pain into pleasure.His mother is conducting medical experiment on three young women.Eiji decides to mix his serum with the experimental product that his mother is working on.Soon the girls start to hurt and mutilate themselves with a strange pleasure at doing it.The three main female actresses are truly interesting characters-one is obsessed with eating and her obsession later results in incredibly graphic and shocking self-cannibalism scene,another is obsessed with her image.The third,Rika Mikami suffers from extreme form of insomnia-a condition brought by the trauma of her first period."Naked Blood" is a slow-moving film filled with moments of totally extreme gore.The scene where one of the girls slowly eats her own nipple and eye has to be seen to be believed!Still the film is pretty difficult to understand,so fans of mindless Hollywood's horror should avoid it.A must-see for fans of Japanese extreme cinema

Joining them on their new vehicle are Blackie and Curly, a pair of psychotic criminals (who were seem in the opening credits robbing and stabbing a sidewalk Santa to death), and their nameless rich lady friend, who indulges in sexual games with Blackie at every opportunity. At first the trio join them in their quaint early Christmas dinner of sandwiches, but soon things become a little too eerie when the Lady tries to draw the young girls into her perverted world. Curly slices off some of Laura's hair and sniffs it voraciously, they are forced at knifepoint to watch the Lady and Blackie have sex in their darkened compartment, are repeatedly punched and beaten and even worse... Laura is given the brunt of the torture, forced to give Curly a handjob and take off her panties to expose herself to the three, before being raped and having a knife plunged into her nether regions. To make matters more perverse, a passer-by falls into the room and actually rapes Margaret at the gang's insistent (!). Fearing she will get the same treatment, Margaret flees from the compartment and jumps to her death from a bathroom window. But the culprits will get theirs when they are taken home by Laura's parents and their heinous deeds are discovered.
Review: Nutbag is the horrifying, true-life story of a man who murders without provocation. The lonely, depraved killer stalks the neon city we call Las Vegas. Killing young women at random, there seems to be no end to his madness. Nutbag is a claustrophobic, ghastly thrill-ride that pulls no punches in its depiction of violence. Set to a haunting musical score, this shockingly gory film spins a frighteningly contemporary story of a modern day Jack the Ripper.
Review: An average man is kidnapped and imprisoned in a shabby cell for 15 years without explanation. He then is released, equipped with money, a cellphone and expensive clothes. As he strives to explain his imprisonment and get his revenge, he soon finds out that not only his kidnapper has still plans for him, but that those plans will serve as the even worse finale to 15 years of imprisonment.
Review: Extremely rare film from Renato Polselli (DELIRIO CADO, RIVELAZIONI DI UNO PSICHIATRA SUL MONDO PERVERSO DEL SESSO) that was originally made in 1973, but banned outright by the Italian censors. The original version conveys the message of "obscenity" in different ages and cultural or sub-cultural contexts, coming to the point to deny its existence. This version has been lost and will probably never be released. In 1979 he re-dubbed the soundtrack to give the censors the idea the report was trying to prove the masculine guilt, in almost all the situations the sexual degeneration of women, therefore the victim of real historical sexual violence. This pseudo-feminist version is an over-the-top film of sexual excess that leads to the charge of the cinema industry on the sexual abuse of woman for mere commercial intents. Stars Isarco Ravaioli, Mirella Rossi and Dino Strano (Dean Stratford).
Review: A shocking documentary drama in which a number of bizarre and merciless methods of torture are carried out under the law of the Tokugawa Shogunate in a most realistic way. The story centers on an antagonism between a magistrate who finds sadistic pleasure in using all kinds of ruthless torture and a police officer who despises such means. Yet in between all the the excessive violence, Oxen Split Torturing also features a tragic love story, that of the police man and a pretty farm girl... Sequel to Shogun's Joy of Torture
Review: Roy Chen Chih-Lai is a sick rapist/serial killer with a leg fetish, and cuts off his victims' legs as trophies after he's through with them. One day at a bank robbery shootout, he catches police woman Cheng Hsuen on camera, and chooses her to be his next victim. He begins to stalk her and enter her personal life, even waiting for her inside her home. He notices her sister, Kelly, as well (who is also a cop), and her boyfriend, Ken. After he kidnaps and rapes Kelly, Cheng decides to lure the madman by using herself as bait, and bring justice to the situation.
Review: Boasting some pretty good Rick Baker-esque special effects and Deran Serafian in a small role, this pretty lame Italian movie deserves some recognition. Cerchi gets some credit for still making gore flicks while most of the other Italian directors (Ruggero Deodato, Sergio Martino, Lamberto Bava, and Enzo G. Castellari) have moved on to lower-key TV movies. As for plankton, it's half Piranha - half The Thing, with people turninging into monsters, raping women, and causing general mayhem. The ultra-grimy, sleazy, and over-sexed feel of the film makes it easy to enjoy.
Review: Inspired by the Marquis de Sade’s “Justine,” this ultra-rare cult favorite is celluloid sleaze at its most outrageous. Poor Cecily is abused, ravaged, whipped and subjected to a relentless catalog of sexual shenanigans in this tale of 18th century depravity from director F.C. Perl. Flesh and Blood magazine found the film to be “superior period-piece sexploitation … a visual feast of heaving cleavage, outrageous wigs and bodice-ripping action.”
Review: The Best Bits: A guy bashes her skull in and drags her to the bed where she is tied down. The "star" of the video starts fucking her while a second guy saws her leg into pieces! When she finally regains consciousness, she starts screaming in agony and her tongue is viciously sliced off with a straight razor! Her arm is then chopped off, and if this isn’t enough, her stomach is sliced open and the guy starts fucking her intestines!!
Review: The story is a bit complicated, so I reduce it to the most important things. Shu Ya, a young model, gets involved with photographer Mo Hsieh Sheng , who stole a strange statue from a temple. He takes her home to take advantage of her, but both get very drunk and fall asleep. In the night, a demon (seems he emerged from the statue) appears and rapes the young woman in her sleep. The photographer falls in love with another woman (Li Ting Ting, who is the daughter of the master of the temple from where he has stolen the statue). In the meantime, the model learns that she is pregnant. Mo takes her to a dubious doctor, who performs abortions. But during the abortion, a storm with thunder and lightning turns up, and the abortion is seriously disturbed. Shu Ya decides to keep the baby, and Mo takes her to the hospital. On the ride there, the two begin a dispute about the future of the baby, and a fatal accident happens. Mo survives, but Shu Ya burns alive in the car wreck. She promises revenge. "You'll pay for what you've done!" Later in the morgue, an autopsy is carried out on the horribly burnt corpse, when suddenly (after cutting open the womb) hands snatch at the doctor and pull his face into the guts. In the ensuing struggle, his head comes off. A slimy baby is seen crawling away from the corpse, tearing out the umbilical cord. Later, very strange and terrible things happen around Mo, his girlfriend Li and the master. Mo, with the help of some priests, tries to find out the cause of the strange happenings and fights back.

Review: Linda gets raped by a man in a hockey mask. She finds that a few other women have had the same treatment. Together they form a squad that starts looking for the man and also changes the mind of would-be rapists.
Review: Rare and hard to find Hong Kong exploitation film about a young girl who becomes a prostitute after she is raped by her whore mother’s pimp boyfriend! A fine trashy film with some good ‘ol revenge at the end!! Has some cool trailers at the end as well!
Review: Advertised in some places as a sequel to NAKED KILLER, this is a much different film in style and tone but using some of the same principal cast members. NAKED KILLER had a joyful exuberance in its blackly comic tale of rival lesbian hitwomen. RAPED BY AN ANGEL is a much more grim tale of male/female relations both tender and brutal. In typical Hong Kong film fashion, the cute scenes of Yau and Yam dating are intercut with the brutality of prolonged rape in a parallel story. Like I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE, the multitude of violent rape scenes make this a repellent film viewing experience while also being fascinating in its shameless exploitation of rape as entertainment, despite the use of comic relief to make this more acceptable to a wider audience. While never eroticized, what this ultimately does is trivializes the act. The film is undeniably effective but just don't expect another NAKED KILLER even though Chingmy Yau gets to play another tough chick character. Well cast and slickly-lensed, this is not a film to watch on a first date.
Review: A dentist obsessed with young women in various uniforms stalks two sisters. The oldest sister is romantically pursued by a thug that was just released from prison. The dentist also has the hots for her and the two paths eventually cross.
Review: Miss Kwan a writer with writer's block and her goofy cop boyfriend are being tormented by an American named Daniel who's housing two escaped rapists. Daniel and the two friends spend there time combing the bars and clubs looking for girls. They cross paths with Kwan and her friends and the madness and carnage begins. Anthony Wong also stars as a lunatic named the Human Milk Drinking Doctor. A madman who rapes lactating women. He's reformed though (through working as an projectionist in a porno theater). Wong helps the couple defeat Daniel and his co-horts.
Review: RAPEMAN (1993) (aka REIPUMAN) Dir: TAKAO NAGAISHI Only in Japan would this type of production be made - and thank God for it. Director Takao Nagaishi RAPEMAN is a strangely fun and charming super-hero/crime-film series where the hero of the films rights wrongs through penetration by offering his services to disgruntled individuals who have a good enough reason. The proceeds from Rapeman Services also serves a good cause, and goes to the orphanage that Keisuke (Rapemans alter-ego) grew up in... In this first installment of the series - we are introduced to Keisuke: mild mannered school-teacher by day - avenging angel of rape by night - and his goofy Uncle, who together run Rapeman Services. Their services are called-upon by a nightclub owner who tells a sob story about having her boyfriend, a current political candidate, stolen by his secretary, and asks Rapeman to take care of her as an act of revenge. This is done per the nightclub owners request - but we soon find that the story was just a cover to cause a bigger scandal that involves rival a seedy rival politician and the Yakuza... This film, as weird as it sounds has a strange charm about it that overrules the potentially sleazy content. The film feels much more like a main-stream TV crime series, despite the rape-content. The character of Keisuke/Rapeman is kinda like a cross between Ogami Itto (from the SHOGUN’S ASSASIN - also available from Visual-Pain) and Magnum P.I., and the production-value and acting of the film are very TV-show-like as well. The RAPEMAN series as a whole is very good and entertaining, and will be of special interest to pinku fans.
Review: A mild-mannered school teacher is secretly a superhero called Rapeman who is hired by wronged people who want to get revenge against someone through rape; in this episode, after Rapeman accepts a job to rape a snooty nurse, he discovers a secret organ traffiking ring operating inside the Hospital
Review: If you're a fan of Takao Nagaishi’s RAPEMAN series or have seen the first couple, then you'll know pretty much what to expect from part three in the series. Of course, Keisuke and Uncle are up to their old tricks of righting wrongs through penetration through the guise of Rapeman Services. The vigilante rapist is determined to live up to his credo, that when the law is powerless, I will punish the guilty - and punish he does with his own brand of justice...
Review: RAPEMAN 4 (1994) (aka REIPUMAN 4) Dir: Takao Nagaishi More RAPEMAN fun from director Takao Nagaishi for those that dig this classic series of funny/sleazy pinku films. The basic concepts of the films are the same, revolving around Keisuke and Uncle who run Rapeman Services as a means for those that have been wronged to seek retribution outside of the law through rape... This episode starts with a request for a pop-star to be raped into humility by her personal-assistant, who the star had treated like crap. The pop-star gets hers when Rapeman shows her that she aint always the boss. From there the story shifts gears when a Senators secretary seeks out Rapemans services to rape his fiancé who has been brainwashed by a local cult. According to the by-laws of the cult - if the woman has sex with a non-member, then she will be disassociated from the cult, thus bringing the wife back to her husband. This back-fires when the cult does not ex-communicate her - so Keisuke and Uncle infiltrate the cult to get to the bottom of their shady dealings. The resulting investigation embroils the duo in a conspiracy between the cult and a sleazy politician that can only be righted through penetration... Ive liked all of the films in the RAPEMAN series, and I liked RAPEMAN 4 as well. You cant go wrong with a superhero/rapist, and this one keeps to the formula of being genuinely funny and entertaining, while still maintaining a fair bit of sleaze due to the subject-matter. A great series and a solid entry - definitely worth a look to RAPEMAN series fans or pinku fans in general.
Review: Red Room is like a Japanese version of Survivor snuff style. 4 people in a red room play a twisted card game where the winner takes the loser into a cage and gets to do whatever they want to the loser while the other 2 people have to watch. The game ends when only one person is left alive.
Review: The 2nd installement of Red Room is twice as hard. This shit is damn rough for a horror movie, if you can call it a horror movie! Torture and murder make a horror film but what do you call it when perversions and grossness is added to it at Xtreme levels? Only for the seriously demented and insane.
Review: Mean-spirited Category III film. A psychotic doctor at a local mental hospital goes around raping and killing women (Not necessarily in that order!) because they were wearing red. The plot thickens when he attacks and rapes the beautiful Lo Man Lee, a patient at the hospital with the mind of a 10-year old! This sucker grabs you and doesn’t let go! Contains graphic rape scenes and nudity. One scene shows the girl in the shower washing her private parts profusely and then she tries to cut herself there! A brutal film!!
Review: A mad scientist transfers his mind to a wicked robot, which then embarks on a program of kidnaping, rape and murder, during which a female detective is killed. To fight the robot, the police woman's corpse is then made into a robotrix...

She soon realizes that her only hope for survival is to manipulate Leonard through her writings in his cherished scrapbook.
Review: Rb-04: Jogakusei: Harakiri starts with a pigtailed woman sitting in a traditional Japanese Sailor Moon getup. The woman sits quietly looking through a black book featuring images of ritual suicide. Obviously turned on by the images she rubs her face and body (in a ridiculous manor). We cut to her reaching for the knife, and in true Rb-01 spirit she also puts the knife away, I guess to rationalize her actions further (or to drag out the run time for another 45 minutes). When she finally disrobes her upper apparel -- being pleased with herself -- she considers “should I, or shouldn’t I”, as if to bring the viewer suspense (tedium). This time the woman wraps the knife with paper rather than a white cloth. After more waiting, she finally commits ritual suicide. Rb-04: Jogakusei: Harakiri cares not for such trivial symbolism, instead punching straight for perversion. This story’s purpose is to showcase a more prominent arousal in the character. Her purpose of committing seppuku is for sheer twisted, morbid pleasure. While Rb-01 shied away from a more gory demise, this time we bare witness to a more gruesome death. As our female character abdominally digs in, we see the stomach open and close with every slice, this time completed with the forthcoming of entrails.
Review: No one who has seen this one was prepared for its sheer brutality and were completely knocked off course for days after seeing it! It's an I Spit on your Grave style rape/revenge movie but is a hell of a lot more extreme in its depiction of rape and violence, makes I Spit on your Grave look like a romantic fairytale! definitely not for your average horror viewer! harsh, harsh, harsh! This film has absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever!
Review: Lost Paradise seems to be the most widely know and sought after seppuku film, and was in fact my first seppuku experience. Probably the main reason this particular film is so sought after in the trading circuit is due to the fact that it is directed by Masami Akita of Japan’s intense noise band, Merzbow. Not only did Akita direct this short, he also created the droning yet haunting score for the film. A female in military fatigues follows a concrete pathway and enters the building. She stops and places her foot atop a ledge. Something falls off her boot, but the scene is too dark to visualize what that something actually is. A shirtless man sits, burning an unknown material on a table top. As far as I could tell, the material does resemble whatever fell from our female soldiers boot (the significance of this to the plot, I am unsure). Merzbow noise drones on in the background and the woman starts to disrobe her military uniform. Unlike previous seppuku films from Right Brain, which force the viewer to wait endless minutes until the actual act commences, Akita wastes little time and gets straight to the knife. There isn’t any ridiculous body cuddling here. This time around Akita showcases his inner gorehound, painting the screen with flowing viscera. As the innards spill forward, so does the character’s agonizing moans of death. What differentiates Lost Paradise from others is the amount of gore. As the definition of seppuku states, one would expect a gory disembowelment followed by an excruciating death, which this film definitely delivers. This is where previous Right Brain seppuku entries fail. Lost Paradise is not a fast paced ritual suicide, but it does flow a lot better than other films of this sub-genre. The finale was the most believable of any other seppuku film I have seen, despite the fact that breathing was evident from the actress’s stomach moving, after the characters death. Another separating factor of this seppuku entry is the fact that after the woman’s demise, a male party enters the picture. You’ll have to check out this section of the Ah-03: Onna Harakiri Sakuhinshu III anthology to find out what happens.
Review: A very rare exploitation that is a must for the sleaze merchant! A psychotic madman lures young women into his home and then seduces them to later torture and hunt them down for sport through the woods! Lots of brutality here as this film was banned in the director’s own country!!
Review: Scummy, twisted, degenerate and all the better for it, this long lost X rated wonder from the good ol' year of 1970 was the brainchild of one Walt Davis. At the close of the Sixties Davis had directed several minor softcore movies, however in the early Seventies Davis developed a kink for mixing sordid sexploitation with Herschell Gordon Lewis brand of gore slaughter which manifested itself in two supremely shocking features. The other is the outlandish Evil Come, Evil Go (1972) a gruesome tale of Sister Sarah Jane Butler, who butchers `love generation men' in LA to the theme song of `Sarah Jane, Sarah Jane you're insane'. Whereas Evil Come, Evil Go cleaned up, the earlier Sex Psycho fared less well- it was simply deemed unreleasable, never showing up anywhere either on video or the cinemas. Even the efforts of the producer (Cuban born sex film pioneer Manuel S Conde) and a change of title to the more X friendly Widow Blue, all proved in vain. The Sex Psycho of the title and our hero of the piece, if he could be called that is Nick (Mike Haven- the cat burglar from Al Adamson's Brain of Blood) a pudgy faced average Joe who taunts and ridicules his sloppy wife (Sandy Demsey) over her coke-bottle glasses and natty blonde wig. A marriage made in hell, he's a sexist pig who complains about her burnt cooking, while she threatens to run back to her mothers whenever he says boo. Despite his low opinion of his wife's sex appeal, Nick is convinced that someone out there finds her attractive, especially when he overhears her talking to her lover on the phone. Enraged, Nick promptly goes out and buys a large meat cleaver, then takes to fondling it in his car with a look in his eyes that suggests he has more on his mind than cutting cake with it. Oddly his other half isn't the intended victim, instead Nick speeds over to his mistress Eva Blue, only to find Eva's bi-sexual husband Jerry Blue (played by none other than the director himself) getting under the sheets with Eva's brother Marshall. Egged on by Eva and helped by Marshall, Nick sinks the cleaver deep into Jerry's neck. Things become even more vomitious when the whacked out Eva Blue drags Nick onto the bed for some post-homicide heavy petting despite Jerry's dead body providing interruption `Don't worry about him, he's dead, dead, dead'. Dim Marshall is suitably horrified but agrees to hide the body in a big, black coffin, yet again though libidos provide a distraction. When the three Sex Psychos finally remember they have a corpse to dispose of a pair of Jerry's swinger pals Ron and Sarah show up and (only slightly fazed by the big black coffin in the middle of the room) quickly turn the place into a suburban swingers party!! Well remember this is the Seventies and only then could a scriptwriter get away with the line that comes from the ubiquitous John Holmes `we're all 21 and responsible citizens, so let's just take off our clothes and get it on right here'. Despite Holmes alarming presence, Davis reserves the freakiest moment for the completely basketcase climax that leaves Eva screaming her guts out, Nick bleeding to death holding on to a bloody stump and his wife choking to death. Not without credence is the legend that a single showing in the dawn of the Seventies had potential buyers running from the theatre as if the Blob had invaded. What distinguishes Sex Psycho from typical XXX movie house fare, sealed its commercial fate. If the extreme gore didn't get to them, the scenes with Davis and friend would have had dirty mack dwellers deeply suspicious that they had gone to the wrong theatre. Davis evidently saw allot wrong with the world, Evil Come, Evil Go takes several pot-shots at religious fanaticism while Sex Psycho sees the world behind every picket fence as a cocktail of violence, insanity and false morality. Even so for their grim storylines and messages Davis's features remain cartoonishly over the top and always on the very dark side of black humour. His Sex Psycho script is so mockingly vulgar as to bring laughs to the most morbid melodrama, also hilariously jarring is his taste in music with demented organ music and liberal uses of the theme from The French Connection and Night on Bald Mountain. A personification of the skinny, ear muff sideburned, long haired LA freak that every conservative feared, little is known about writer/ director/ erst-while Mr Jerry Blue and all round enfant terrible Walt Davis- other than the movies. Soon after getting Sex Psycho and Evil Come, Evil Go out of his system Davis wrote his way into obscurity, his last known credit was a script for Deep Jaws a film made in 76 by Manuel Conde. Today Sex Psycho is best viewed as the black sheep never invitied even to the table of the most extreme films from America's most extreme era and most extreme medium. Too much for audiences of the day, its still not for everyone but if you're looking for something unique, especially outrageous and with the explicit sex and death that comes with Seventies excess then Walt Davis is your man.

Review: Teruo Ishii's extremely provocative movie set in the 1600 in feudal Japan. 3 short stories dealing with punishment and torture. The first deals with incest where a woman is beaten and tortured to death for having an affair with her dying brother. The second is about lesbian nuns and the third story shows a crazy tattoo artist who kidnaps a woman to use as his canvas. Even though this movie is over 35 years old, the effects and the gore are amazing! Humans burned at barbeques, decapitations and more torture than you could possibly wish for makes this classic videonasty a must have for all fans of good and gory movies!

Review: A film within a film which resembles the Sharon Tate slaying by the Manson 'family'. The film opens with two biker chicks in hot pursuit of another woman who has ripped off their drugs. They catch her, place her in bondage and take her to their bearded guru, named Satan.

Their prime target is a beautiful, blonde, pregnant woman who is married to a film director. Satan and the biker chicks shoot the film director and then surround the bed where the pregnant woman cowers in fear. They plunge a dagger into her belly. After the dagger comes down the camera pulls back and the audience sees the film crew and the director talking about the final scene. A young woman on the crew tells the director that the stabbing scene turned her on. The director asks her if she would like to act out her fantasies. She complies and gets into bed with him. The filming doesn't stop and she tries to protest to it. She tries to pull away from the director. He picks up the blood-spattered dagger, looks into the camera and says: "You want to get a good scene?"...

Review: "Subconscious Cruelty" has to be one of the most beautiful films I have ever seen.Still it's extremely grim and gory at times,so fans of politically correct mainstream horror garbage shouldn't bother.The film mixes many wonderful visuals with plenty of sleaze and gore.It is extremely odd,vicious and disturbing,so fans of bizarre cinema won't be disappointed. My favourite segment from "Subconscious Cruelty" is "Human Larvae" which shows us a twisted relationship between a young man and his pregnant sister.The birthing scene is particularly nasty and not easily forgotten.The last segment "Right Brain/Martyrdom" has to be seen to be believed.It's incredibly harsh and blasphemous with scenes of genital mutilation and grisly torture.We see Jesus Christ captured by three naked females who mutilate him,ripping flesh from his chest,licking a wound on his knee and pissing on him.There is also a Jesus statue with a projection of a swastika on it."Subconscious Cruelty" is a truly memorable film that should be seen by fans of extreme cinema.Check it out.

Review: This wild Category III flick was shot back-to-back with HUMAN PORK CHOP and is basically the same exact story with a few exceptions. A young woman gets into an argument with her husband and goes to live with a friend. While there, this chick proceeds to steal some money from her so-called friends and they go after her. When she can’t pay it back, they take her hostage (After beating the living shit out of her several times!) while awaiting her welfare check. In the meantime, they brutally beat her, burn her and even piss on her and force her to eat shit! She dies from the abuse (There’s a few funny lines where the people keep asking her “Why did you die so easily?”) and in a state of panic they throw her in the tub, drain her blood, chop her up into pieces and make soup with her remains! There’s some humorous censoring of items like clothing labels and stuffed toys (I guess these people don’t want to get sued by Levi’s or something!!) and a few scenes look as if they were edited wrong but there’s a LOT of full frontal nudity, wild gore and abuse so this more than makes up for the censoring (Again, its funny!!).
Review: Frigga lives with her parents on their farm. Unable to speak after being horrifically raped by an elderly man when she was young, her parents spend the majority of their money on speech therapy classes for their daughter in the hope that one day, she will speak again. One day, Frigga misses the bus to get to her speech therapy class. She accepts a ride off a suave looking gentlemen named Tony who pulls up beside her. Once they are in town, he takes her for a meal. Afterwards, he takes Frigga back to what appears to be his bachelor pad. He gives her wine that has probably been drugged, as she passes out after drinking it. The man then takes no time in bringing a crooked doctor in to get her fixed on high class heroin. After announcing to Frigga that she is now dependent on heroin and cannot last more than 48 hours without it, she must work as a prostitute for him. Frigga, obviously not thrilled by this news, attempts escape twice, but to no avail. On getting her very first client, she reacts by scratching down his face. Tony punishes her for this by removing an eye (the infamous supposed cadaver eye scene). Having found out that Tony sent a fake letter to her parents announcing in it that she hates her parents, Frigga makes her way home one Monday (her day off) only to discover that they have both apparently suicided from the lost of their only daughter. After this and the death of her friend and fellow prostitute Sally, Frigga seeks revenge on those who have wronged her, namely Tony and her clients. She spends her Mondays learning martial arts, buggy driving and shooting in order to suitably equip herself to take on the villians in her life. One of the blueprints as to why Tarantino's Kill Bill films exist, this film is an essential in the femme fatale revenge genre.

Review: An insane satire on the entire HK Category III genre starring Anthony Wong. His wife in deep in debt and she goes to a loan shark, the Underground Banker. Her finances get worse and worse with no way to pay the banker. She is raped, beaten, forced into prostitution, and even gang raped on video.

Yes, the one and only serial killer! But this time, Dr. Lamb is the hero!!!! COOL!!! This time ‘round, Lamb is played by Lawrence Ng!

Review: Another trashy rape and revenge story about a nurse who is brutally raped and takes vengeance into her own hand. She kills the rapists in a numbers of gory ways. Has a great ending!!
Review: A Los Angeles businesswoman, known only by her street name of Princess, turns to prostitution to support herself and her young daughter when she's forced by Detective Tom Walsh and his vice squad to help them arrest a brutal pimp named Ramrod for the murder of a prostitute named Ginger. But when Ramrod learns that he was set up, he escapes from police custody and begins a long night of tracking down Princess while Walsh and his vice squad are always one step behind him.
Review: The uncut version, which has rarely been seen outside of Germany. This version has all of the "expulsion" scenes intact, missing from all of the other versions. This film, alongside Forced Entry and Unwilling Lovers, is the best example of what was great about the Grindhouse scene in the 70's. Gritty, realistic, violent....and oddly erotic. See Jamie Gillis do what he does best....be a pervert. Not For The Squeamish. This version comes from a VHS source with hardcoded GERMAN subtitles. *** For all out grimy sleaze I can't recomend this one highly enough....The dialogue alone makes the movie worth it :D ----Dxa
Review: Queen of Japanese erotica Naomi Tani plays a wife who charges her husband with sexual battery. He escapes from the police and goes into hiding. Three years pass, she divorces him and tries to put the pieces of her life back in order when suddenly he returns. Obsessed with rage and hatred, he kidnaps her and brings her to a house in remote wooded area. There he disciplines her vehemently, subjecting her to increasingly shocking forms of sexual torture, tetherings, suspensions and humiliations. Astonishingly, through the rage and lust, the pair develop a relationship that pushes the boundaries of lurid passions and perverse obsessions. Masaru Konuma directs this landmark 'Pink' film from legendary Nikkatsu Studios in Japan. This film paved the way for a new sub-genre of S&M Pink films, and stars the 'Queen of Japanese erotica' Naomi Tani. In this wildly over-the-top softcore S&M drama Kunishada (Nagatoshi Sakamoto), an unabashed pervert, happens upon his kimono-clad ex-wife, Akiko (Naomi Tani), kidnaps her, and drags her to a secluded old house up in the mountains. At first he merely ties her up and humiliates her, but after she cuts him with a razor the real horror show begins. Soon Akiko finds herself tied up in a variety of exotic knots and covered in hot wax. Later, after an escape attempt ends in Akiko being raped by two darkhearted hunters, she awakens sexually and starts to enjoy her debasement. Also starring the unforgettable Terumi Azuma as a young woman kidnapped after a failed suicide attempt.
Review: The film is about two girls who are on their way home but after taking a shortcut their car brakes down. They end up asking a bunch of dope-smoking hippies for help but end up getting raped in every sexual position imaginable for nearly 20 minutes of the running time! After the all the hippies have had their way they leave them to themselves. So they decide to wander off and look for help. However they stumble upon a crazy cult of yet more evil people who want to "reduce them to sexual beasts" before killing them. All this time a police investigation is on its way, triggered by the anxious father of one of the girls. And there is even a completely unnecessary and unrelated side-story about two villains who want to smuggle a drugged girl across the Mexican border to sell her to a brothel - but not before raping her themselves ...
Review: Yakuza's Law is one of the most extreme and thoughest Japanese gangster film ever made. In three stories you will get to know the laws of these Asian mobsters, and the ways of punishment that are inflicted upon those who break them. One shouldn't fool around with married women and he who can't keep a secret will meet a dark fate…
Review: This collection of brain-fried French vignettes was too weird and pretentious for any U.S. distributors, so few people in on this side of the Atlantic have heard of it, or the seven-pack of directors who contributed their demented wares, including Yann Piquer, Jean-Marie Maddeddu, Anita Assal, John Hudson, Barthelemy Bompard, Alain Robak, and Philippe Dorison. It's a mixed bag, but by cramming a dozen shorts into only 73 minutes, the filmmakers do their best to keep our attention from wandering. Several of the entries share a common, paranoid theme, with the environment and/or inanimate objects suddenly going berserk. A woman panics when her apartment ceiling descends on her; a car drives its 'owner' around under its own power; and a surveillance camera rips itself loose from the wall. All of these are amusing, but slight...Things pick up with "Corridor," by Robak, who later directed the wonderfully twisted BABY BLOOD (hacked of its sanguinary spillage and released in the US as THE EVIL WITHIN). In this, a potential buyer checks out a house and is dropped into a life-threatening endurance test--hanging from ropes and dodging knives, razor blades and a flat iron. Also worth a mention is Assal & Hudson's "T.V. Buster," in which a married pair of couch potatoes become the abused subjects of every show they watch, and call in a TV exorcist. By far, the oddest (and best) of the lot are from Piqeur & Maddeddu's happily sick sense of humor--whether it's with a shut-in who covers his apartment walls with mutilated flies, or a man who's hung on a wall and interrogated, as pieces of his body are chopped away. A fave is their "Sculpture Physique," featuring a man who allows himself to be beaten repeatedly about the face in the name of art. The silliest, most pointless idea is to have each segment bookended by stark, b&w footage panning across an endless line of blind persons. (Huh?) Little dialogue is spoken throughout, and though never very gory, that's because the filmmakers are more interested in their own brand of tripped-out, arthouse-fantasy psychedelia. Considering some of the turnabout/twist endings, this often feels like a Frogland spin-off of Rod Serling's NIGHT GALLERY. In 1994, Piquer, Robak, Assal and Hudson reunited for a five-part, feature-length anthology entitled PARANO, N'AYEZ PAS PEUR D'EN RIRE, once again tackling the subject of paranoia.
Review: Just when I thought I'd run out of Alexandro Jodorowsky films to fawn over (psychedelic mindbenders EL TOPO and THE HOLY MOUNTAIN, as well as debacles like TUSK and THE RAINBOW THIEF), I locate a copy of his earliest feature. (Actually, the guy's first film is lost, according to all sources. Based on "The Severed Heads" by Thomas Mann, it was a fable done in mime, and even Jodorowsky doesn't have a copy.) This definitely shows what was to come from this unorthodox, inconsistent genius. Based on Fernando Arrabal's play (which Jodorowsky had previously directed on stage), the flick was castrated by its distributors, Cannon Films, after causing a fracas at the Acapulco Film Festival for being too "corrupting"...Working with no budget to speak of, and filmed on weekends, the production reeks with Bunuel influenced surrealism and pretensions. Sergio Klainer and Diana Mariscal star as the title characters, a young couple in search of the enchanted city of Tar, where ecstasy can (supposedly) be found. Fando is impotent, Lis is paralyzed, and together they travel across a rocky landscape (with the bleach blonde Lis wheeled along or carried), equipped with their only possessions, a drum and an old fashioned phonograph. Basically, it's a road movie that takes these holy innocents nowhere, as they encounter bizarre characters, experience childhood flashbacks, play cruel jokes on each other, and sit on rocks, rambling banalities. They argue, they split up (Fando runs off and Lis sits there bawling), they get back together, and when Fando gets sick of her whining, he drags Lis around by the feet. Sure, there are plenty of striking images along the way (i.e. a musician sits amidst urban rubble, playing a flaming piano), but the first half of this flick is an incoherent, maddeningly edited mess that makes even Fellini's most indulgent work look coherent. It's not until Jodorowsky ups the tripped-out absurdity that the movie begins to hit you on a gut level. Such as when Fando is whipped by a bikinied torturess and eyed by some horny transvestites, or encounters vampires drinking snifters of blood (as an additional note, Jodorowsky said that all on-screen blood was real). And what other director would keep a straight face while live pigs are being pulled from Lis' vagina? (Yeah, you read that correctly.) Or when supporting characters crawl into their own graves to perish, politely thanking the grave digger as he covers 'em up? But if Jodorowsky wanted the title characters to be enchanting kids, fouled by society's ills, he failed. Because though his vision is charmingly morbid and scattered with unintentional laughs, the leads are dead weight. Along the way, I realized I didn't care about either of 'em or their heavyhanded quest. It's dense going for Jodorowsky amateurs, yet a field day for fans of murky, symbolic baloney.
Review: A Christlike figure wanders through bizarre, grotesque scenarios filled with religious and sacrilegious imagery. He meets a mystical guide who introduces him to seven wealthy and powerful individuals, each representing a planet in the solar system. These seven, along with the protagonist, the guide and the guide's assistant, divest themselves of their worldly goods and form a group of nine who will seek out the Holy Mountain, in order to displace the gods who live there and become immortal.
Review: A young man is confined in a mental hospital. Through a flashback we see that he was traumatized as a child, when he and his family were circus performers: he saw his father cut off the arms of his mother, a religious fanatic and leader of the heretical church of Santa Sangre ("Holy Blood"), and then commit suicide. Back in the present, he escapes and rejoins his surviving and armless mother. Against his will, he "becomes her arms" and the two undertake a grisly campaign of murder and revenge.
Review: Shot sometime between 1953 and 1959, this is a film of a mime adaptation of Thomas Mann's play "The Transposed Heads." A short mime adaptation of a Thomas Mann story about a Parisian urchin who makes her living selling human heads.
Review: After a nuclear apocalypse, the whole landscape is a desert ruin, except for a small island paradise where El Topo is buried. Thought visible and seemingly accessible, every attempt to enter this island has resulted in disaster. El Topo´s sons, Cain and Abel, were separated as boys because El Topo predicted that Cain would kill Abel. But when evil marauders steal their mothers´s body in an attempt to trick their way into the island, the brothers join forces to deliver their dead mother to be buried with their father. Not only must they overcome an enemy adept at technological witchery, they must overcome the curse that marks their destiny.
Review: The gunfighter El Topo ("The Mole") and his young son ride through a desert to a village, whose inhabitants have been massacred. Bandits are nearby, torturing and killing the survivors. El Topo rescues a woman (Mara), who leads him on a mission to find and defeat the four master gunmen of the desert. Leaving his son with a group of monks, El Topo and Mara complete the mission, accompanied by a mysterious woman in black. The women leave El Topo wounded in the desert, where he is found by a clan of deformed people who take him to the remote cavern where they live. Awakening years later, he goes with a dwarf woman to a nearby town, promising to dig a tunnel through which the cave-dwellers can escape. They find the town run by a vicious sheriff and home to a bizarre religious cult. El Topo's son, now a man, is a monk in the town. The completion of the tunnel leads El Topo, the townspeople, and the cave-dwellers to a bloody and tragic end.
Review: Film director, artist, and photographer. He was born in 1961 in Leningrad . He was one of the leaders of the "Parallel Cinematography" movement in the 1980s. In 1984 he founded an independent film studio "Mzhalalafilm" and led the group of young vanguard authors who called themselves necrorealists. This movement included literature, photography and paintings as well as cinematography. It was characterized by spontaneity and the poignancy of man's primitive initiation rituals and simple merry rowdiness. In spite of the threatening name, necrorealism is an art form that does not inspire fear. On the contrary, it is an art form that abolishes social taboos and takes the civilized consciousness into the sphere of liberated instincts.
Review: Leger and Murphy used magic and early optical illusions, such as looping segments and split screens. The repetitive movements of the steel machines, match those of the live action people doing work, or even the comical puppet like figure that dances across the screen to create a mechanical ballet. Be it mechanical movements of humans, or mechanical movements of machines. Something tells me I should make a parallel between the man-machine imagery and the 70's electronic German godfathers, Kraftwerk. It's the Europeans I tell ya...they bring us all the best art as entertainment. Every image, from the smiling girl, to the numbered cards all serve a purpose in the grande scheme of Ballet Mecanique
Review: The year is 1999 and a strange virus hits the nation of Taiwan and creates panic throughout the population. The strange thing about this virus is that it effects the nervous system of its victims and causes them to actually believe they are cockroaches! In an attempt to contain the virus, the government quarantines the nation and on New Year’s Eve 1999 will turn off all water supply! Words really cannot describe this surreal and pessimistic film. Add to this the fact that running water is heard throughout the ENTIRE FILM and you’re ready for a great Chinese torture film
Review: DREAMWOOD is James Broughton's major work to date. It is a modern day spiritual odyssey in which a man is mysteriously compelled to leave his home and embark on a voyage to a strange and magical island. On the island he faces the most improbable and intense experiences of his life, ranging from total humiliation to a deep sense of oneness with the forces of life. Heroic in concept, subtle in execution, DREAMWOOD is a beautiful film by a true master of the medium

Review: Group of shocking Music-videos linked by interviews with bandmembers of this Black Metal group with Guest appearances by a beloved TV Horror Hosts. Film works as a feature length introduction to the Underground world that influences this particular music movement and showcases moments of intense performance by the band. The videos reflect the genius of Indie Wunderkind, Jim Van Bebber whose long awaited fature CHARLIES FAMILY (AKA: THE MANSON FAMILY) is finally seeing the light of day in British theaters, soon to follow in the USA. Van Bebber's characteristic frenetic cuts, neo-primitive animation and deconstructive look at Pop Culture make this worth watching even if the music ain't your thing.
Review: One of the official videos that could not be included in this collection was "Worlock." "Worlock" consists of gory scenes (some of them censored from their original films) from over fifty horror movies, making it virtually impossible to secure rights and clearances for the whole thing.The movies featured in the "Worlock" video: Altered States, Bad Taste, The Beyond, Combat Shock, Dead And Buried, Death Warmed Up, Deep Red, Demons, Eraserhead, From Beyond, Hellbound: Hellraiser II, Henry: Portrait Of A Serial Killer, Intruder, Luther The Geek, Maniac 2, Opera, Parents, Phenomena, Re-Animator, Suspiria, Tenebrae and Videodrome
Review: Director José Mojica Marins' biggest box-office film ever: Three young men make a wager on which one is able to have sex with more partners in a 24-hour period. They take several women to a beach house where the contest takes place.
Review: After seeing the film '24 Horas de Sexo Explícito', a psychologist hires the same crew to make a new movie, doubling the time - an orgy which would last for 48 hours, to further her research on sex. But in the middle of the shooting, the actors realize they are being used in a new kind of special treatment.
Review: Psychiatrist experiments LSD on 4 volunteers, to investigate Coffin Joe's influence over them. Each patient presents a different reaction, involving sex, perversion and sadism
Review: José Mojica Marins, a director of horror films about the diabolical Coffin Joe, is spending Christmas with friends. Household members go violently mad for no reason: first grandpa, then the hosts' daughters, one of whom, Vilma, is about to get married. Mojica discovers that Vilma's mother made a pact with a witch in order to become pregnant with Vilma, promising this first-born child to Satan; her impending marriage to a human is stirring up things supernatural. It what seems like a dream, Mojica enters a bacchanal in which an entranced Vilma is about to wed to Satan's son; the master of ceremonies is none other than Coffin Joe. Can Mojica defeat his own creation and save Vilma?
Review: A self indulgent, autobiographical docu-drama that chronicles the filmmaker's "struggle" with narrow minded authorities, critics, and personal tragedy.
Review: Dr. Franklin, a dangerous charlatan escapes after his fraudulent credentials are exposed and ends up in Brasília, Brazil's capital, where he opens a sex clinic for politicians and celebrities. He gives them a drug that increases their sexual drive and soon the clinic is the site of wild orgies.
Review: José Mojica Marins's first hardcore film: Two Chemistry students, unlucky with women, develop a formula that turns them into crazed rapists. But they eventually discover that they are in love with each other!
Review: This movie is basically a vehicle for recycling footage from the eccentric pantheon of Brazil's premier horror filmmaker Jose Mojica Marins, whose own persona often melds with that of his popular alter-ego "Coffin Joe". Clips are culled from the trademark surreal nightmare sequences favored by Marins in such films as Esta Noite Encarnarei No Teu Cadaver (Tonight I'll Be Incarnated in Your Corpse), Ritual dos Sadicos (Ritual of the Maniacs) and Exorcismo Negro (Black Exorcism). These grotesque, hallucinatory set pieces are depicted as the nightmares plaguing psychologist Dr. Hamilton (Jorge Peres), who is haunted by the character of Coffin Joe. In an effort to stop the dreams, Hamilton seeks the aid of Joe's creator (Marins, as himself), who tries to convince him that Joe is not an actual demon but a flamboyant character he intends to lampoon in his latest film.
Review: "Hellish Flesh" is not an Coffin Joe entry but an average horror tale of revenge. A scientist (Marins) gets his face destroyed with acid by his young cheating wife. She then spends his money on a playboy/lover, meanwhile Marins is lurking around them with a scarred face. The end has nice twist but like "Perversion" it's too straightforward compared to his unique surreal Coffin Joe epics. The print from Something Weird Video is pretty worn but it's properly the only way to get this rare film. Only for fans of this Brazilian genius.
Review: A prominent millionaire gets a woman drunk and rapes her, biting off her nipple in the process. Because of his influence and powerful lawyer, though, he is able to beat the rap, claiming the woman was trying to extort money from him. He continues his life of debauchery, using women and flaunting his power until he meets a new woman, who won't let him have his way with her, but wants to be his friend. Falling madly in love with her, he cleans up his act and devotes his attentions to her, not realizing that she has a hidden agenda.
Review: A very chilling movie, which starts with a crazy and surrealist dance, where naked women dance all over, and old men scream towards the sky. Then a coffin has dragged open, and a man (Coffin Joe?) is broad back to life. Then the story goes to an eerie hostel, where all kinds of men come in one stormy night. Coffin Joe tells the visitors some very strange stuff like "All thats nothing will be everything" (???!). The moody story ends up in a knockdown-ending, but the story still continues veery eerie for its last a couple of minutes. Lots of violence, and corny nudity, its normaly regarded as pure exploitation trash. But if you look it, in another way, its a masterpiece of eerie horror-movies.
Review: A triptych explores the dark side. In "The Dollmaker," when four tough guys set out to rob a dollmaker, they're sidetracked by his beautiful daughters. While assaulting the women, they discover how the dollmaker gets such life-like eyes in his dolls. In "Obsession," a lame and destitute balloon man falls in love from afar. When this young woman is murdered, he visits her crypt clutching a pair of her shoes - to dress or undress her? In "Theory," Professor Oaxiac Odez invites a journalist and his wife to see evidence of the professor's theory that instinct is more powerful than reason. He locks up his guests for a week of deprivation to see if love can overcome all.
Review: The first documentary on José Mojica Marins's (the legendary Zé do Caixão or Coffin Joe) life and work. The film tells Mojica's history, from his poor childhood in Vila Anastácio, São Paulo (Brazil), until his success abroad in the '90s.
Review: Stark naked man comes out from the sea and begins to walk the streets, interfering in daily episodes, always in search of justice. He names himself Finis Hominis (The End of Man, in latin), and soon becomes sort of a modern Messiah, capable of performing miracles. An adulterous woman and a cheated husband are among his most faithful followers, as well as a group of hippies.
Review: Coffin Joe is still looking for the perfect woman to give birth to a son of his, and, cleared of the past crimes in the first film (At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul), keeps terrorizing the people in his small town with his iconoclast and sadistic practices.
Review: This movie is in an elite class. There are only a handful like this one... Alexandro Jodorowsky's Holy Mountain comes immediately to mind, as well as underground hits like Japan's DEATH POWDER (by Shigeru Izumiya) and Godfrey Reggio's KOYAANISQATSI — LIFE OUT OF BALANCE. A horrific fantasy based loosely on the Adam and Eve mythos, the Oedipus tale and heavy doses of Zen philosophy. In tandem, this heady brew of religious symbolism is seasoned with huge helpings of gratuitous nudity and excessive gore.The narrative deals with male loner Han, hiding inside an urban hotel room, plagued by hallucinations of twelve beautiful (naked) nymphs coupled with images of nuclear annihilation. Seemingly, he is despondent because he's lost track of his perfect soul-mate, Mago.Through a series of illusions,he learns that the 12 beauties are, in fact, slivers of his lost love, split from "Earth Mother Mago" after humanity turned ugly and parasitic. Further, some of these 12 spirits are raped and abused by male predators, causing the remaining ones to retaliate against the human race. Han — anxious to end the mayhem and regain union with his Mago — travels to a time before his birth where he learns the dark secret harbored in his subconcious.SPECIAL NOTE: There are some very disturbing scenes showing live animals being slaughtered.
Review: A collection of confrontational, outsider cinema from Nick Zedd, one of the foremost proponents of transgressive filmmaking. This volume covers nearly twenty years of defiant, underground movies: Police State (1987), The Bogus Man (1980), Thrust in Me (1984), The Wild World of Lydia Lunch (1983), Kiss Me Goodbye (1986), Go to Hell (1986), Ecstacy in Entropy (1999), Why Do You Exist? (1998), Whoregasm (1988), War Is Menstrual Envy (1990-92), and Tom Thumb in the Land of Giants (1999).
Review: Zedd does is again , this short is based upon the idea the the president of america is a clone..a Bogus Man. A ski-masked narrator tells us of the diabolical plot and shows us footage of the presidents fingers being cut off by his kidnappers and a strange naked woman who waves her bung hole at the camera while doing a twisted bump and grind. Not much can be said except watch it, friends of mine found this short more disturbing than "fingered" and "thrust in me", check it out.
Review: A mad scientist, Dr. Frankenberry, and his manservant, Gecko, concoct the two-headed Formaldehyde Man as a vampire mob led by the skanky Scumbelina lurks beneath their castle.
Review: The 'plot' is about some punk chickie (Ms Death) who is the singer of some band but I can't remember their name. Her brother is a transvestite who does nasty things with the family dog. Then there's some cloning/end of the world type subplot thing with giant insects. The editing is awful (I thought mine was bad but now I feel better) and some of the film was shot using the wrong speed. The sets and atmosphere are wonderful and the opening sequence is masterful. There are some great still-shots and televangelist stock footage. This movie could never be made today (like TAXI DRIVER) 'cause New York is nice and clean now.
Review: The film chronicals a series of operations performed on Orlan, a French woman intent on completely changing her appearance. These operations however, are not an attempt to change her apperance for purposes of beauty, but is instead an attempt to change her appearance to what beauty was considered at different points in history. Through this she attempts to show how she can manipulate and change the body through science and technology.
Review: Pasolini's first film is a painfully realistic study of a pimp in Rome. Vittorio Accattone has never worked a day in his life, and has apparently made a good living prostituting his female companion, Maddalena. But her arrest begins his decline; hungry, he begs from churches and even visits his estranged wife and son. When Stella, a lovely and unbelievably innocent peasant worker, enters his life, Accattone tries to find a way, honest or not, to bring back good fortune...
Review: Microphone in hand, Pier Paolo Pasolini asks Italians to talk about sex: he asks children where babies come from, young and old women if they are men's equals, men and women if a woman's virginity matters, how they view homosexuals, how sex and honor connect, if divorce should be legal, and if they support closing the brothels (the Merlina Act). He periodically checks in with Alberto Moravia and Cesare Musatti. Bersani is intrusive and judgemental, prodding those who answer. The film's thesis: despite the booming post-war economy, Italians' attitudes toward sex are either rigidly Medieval (the poor and the South) or muddled and self-censoring (the bourgeoisie and the North).
Review: An adaptation of nine stories from Bocaccio's "Decameron": A young Sicilian is swindled twice, but ends up rich; a man poses as a deaf-mute in a convent of curious nuns; a woman must hide her lover when her husband comes home early; a scoundrel fools a priest on his deathbed; three brothers take revenge on their sister's lover; a young girl sleeps on the roof to meet her boyfriend at night; a group of painters wait for inspiration; a crafty priest attempts to seduce his friend's wife; and two friends make a pact to find out what happen= s after death. Pasolini is up to his old tricks satirizing the Church, and throwing in liberal doses of life and love.
Review: In this film inspired by the ancient erotic and mysterious tales of the Middle East, the main story concerns an innocent young man who comes to fall in love with a slave who selected him as her master. After his foolish error causes their separation, he travels in search of her. Various other travelers who recount their own tragic and romantic experiences include stories of a young man who becomes enraptured by a mysterious woman on his wedding day, and a man who is determined to free a woman from a demon.
Review: In Pasolini's 'Curd Cheese' ('La Ricotta'), a lavish film about the life of Jesus Christ is being made in a poor area. The impoverished people subject themselves to various indignities in the name of moviemaking in order to win a little food. The central character is hoisted up on a cross for filming, and dies there
Review: Mamma Roma is a middle-aged whore of Roma. Now she can quit her job to become a fruit seller. And she can take back her 16-year-old son, Ettore. For him, she dreams of a good position. But it is perhaps too late for Ettore, whose company includes mostly teenaged louts...
Review: To win the kingdom his uncle took from his father, Jason must steal the golden fleece from the land of barbarians, where Medea is royalty and a powerful sorceress, where human sacrifice helps crops to grow.

Back in Greece, the king keeps the throne, the fleece has no power, and Medea lives an exile's life, respected but feared, abandoned by Jason. When she learns he's to marry the king's daughter, Medea tames her emotions and sends gifts via her sons; then, loss overwhelms her and she unleashes a fire storm on the king, the bride, and Jason.
Review: In pre-war Italy, a young couple have a baby boy. The father, however, is jealous of his son - and the scene moves to antiquity, where the baby is taken into the desert to be killed. He is rescued, given the name Edipo (Oedipus), and brought up by the King and Queen of Corinth as their son. One day an oracle informs Edipo that he is destined to kill his father and marry his mother. Horrified, he flees Corinth and his supposed parents - only to get into a fight and kill an older man on the road...
Review: Two dramatic stories. In an undeterminated past, a young cannibal (who killed his own father) is condemned to be torn to pieces by some wild beasts. In the second story, Julius, the young son of a post-war German industrialist, is on the way to lie down with his farm's pigs, because he doesn't like human relationships. Tagline: I killed my father, I ate human flesh, and I quiver with joy.
Review: "La Rabbia" employs documentary footage (from the 1950's) and accompanying commentary to attempt to answer the existential question, Why are our lives characterized by discontent, anguish, and fear? The film is in two completely separate parts, and the directors of these respective sections, left-wing Pier Paolo Pasolini and conservative Giovanni Guareschi, offer the viewer contrasting analyses of and prescriptions for modern society. Part I, by Pasolini, is a denunciation of the offenses of Western culture, particularly those against colonized Africa. It is at the same time a chronicle of the liberation and independence of the former African colonies, portraying these peoples as the new protagonists of the world stage, holding up Marxism as their "salvation," and suggesting that their "innocent ferocity" will be the new religion of the era. Guareschi's part, by contrast, constitutes a defense of Western civilization and a word of hope, couched in traditional Christian terms, for man's future.
Review: Set in the Nazi-controlled, northern Italian state of Salo in 1944, four dignitaries round up sixteen perfect specimens of youth and take them together with guards, servants and studs to a palace near Marzabotto. In addition, there are four middle-aged women: three of whom recount arousing stories whilst the fourth accompanies on the piano. The story is largely taken up with their recounting the stories of Dante and De Sade: the Circle of Manias, the Circle of Shit and the Circle of Blood. Following this, the youths are executed whilst each libertine takes his turn as voyeur
Review: Tagline: There are only 923 words spoken in "Teorema" - but it says everything! A strange visitor in a wealthy family. He seduces the maid, the son, the mother, the daughter and finally the father before leaving a few days after. After he's gone, none of them can continue living as they did. Who was that visitor ? Could he be God ?
Review: Along a rocky, barren coastline, Jesus begins teaching, primarily using parables. He attracts disciples; he's stern, brusque, and demanding. He comes to bring a sword, not peace, he says. He's in a hurry, moving from place to place near the Sea of Galilee, sometimes attracting a multitude, sometimes being driven away. His parables often take on the powers that be, so he and his teachings come to the attention of the Pharisees, the chief priests, and elders. They conspire to have him arrested, beaten, tried, and crucified, just as he prophesied to his followers. After he dies, he appears to his disciples and gives them final instructions. Pasolini shows Christ as a marxist avant-la-lettre and therefore uses half of the text of Matthew.
Review: Tagline: An off-beat comedy about serious matters by PIER PAOLO PASOLINI. On an empty road, an old man is walking with his son. They meet a crow that can speak. They are changed into monks and Saint Francois sent them to preach for hawks and sparrows. A reflexion about idealism.
Review: Directed by Japanese underground legend Yoshihiko Matsui, most famous for his epic film Noisy Requiem, and his early work with maverick Japanese director Sogo Ishii (Gojoe, Crazy Thunder Road), Pig Chicken Suicide is a veritable assault on the senses, mixing violent images of animal slaughter, racial strife and surrealism to tell the story of 2 Koreans living in Japan, whose love is destroyed due to overwhelming racial discrimination .
Review: The end result of all of this is an hour and a half of brain melting stupidity and senseless sleaze. Some of the clips are disgusting but most of them are genuinely funny and the compilation is never dull. Some of the clips could have been shorter and others could have been longer but it’s a well edited montage of madness that’s perfect for putting on when you want to kill some brain cells. Fun stuff!
Review: Death Valley '69 is a video for the Sonic Youth song of the same name. The song origionally appeared on the "Bad Moon Rising" album from way back in 1985, at about the same time as Kern was making those Super 8 gross-out masterpieces starring the lovely "Lung Leg" - I swear I'm not making this up - who later graced the cover of the SY album "EVOL." There is a great gorey sequence in the DV '69 music video that looks like pieces of liver or stomach (or something...) plopted down in front of a very crudly "killed" Steve Shelley (SY's drummer at the time the video was shot). Kern's very distinctive Super 8 style (gittery, high contrast, EXTREMELY low budget, and super gross-out) that was - and I know this is hard to believe - really, really popular in the New York art scene in the eighties is captured here in it's full glory. Anyway, it's a Sonic Youth music video that is collected on the "Screaming Fields of Sonic Love" music video compilation thingy. There you have it..
Review: FINGERED is an art film that's constructed like a regular movie. Lydia Lunch plays a phone sex operator/prostitute that gets together with a guy she's been on the phone with. After a semi-hardcore sex scene, the violence begins. The man cuts someone's throat for looking at Lydia's character, then they go for a drive. The two abduct a hitch hiker and rape her in a junkyard.
Contains: Death Valley 69 (1986), The Right Side of MY Brain (1984), You Killed Me First (1985), The Bitches (1992)*, and The Sewing Circle (1992)*.
Review: This exclusive video collection is jam-packed with the gritty best from noted New York filmmaker, Richard Kern. His sexually charged work has been alternately dismissed as "violent" and "offensive" by the mainstreem press, but embraced by the underground as the perverse standard. Featuring punk rock diva, Lydia Lunch, funnyman Henry Rollins, the exotic genitalia of Kimbra Pfahler and the churning music of both Sonic Youth and Foetus, the urban jungle excursion is guaranteed to satisify your dark cravings for the unusual.
Contains: Fingered (1986), Submit to Me Now (1987), My Nightmare (1993)*, Horoscope (1991)*, and X is Y (1990).
Review: Of the films presented here, Fingered is by far the most infamous, begining with the statement: "This film is an exercise in the capitalization of an exploitation that some may find unnecessarily, violent, sexist and disgusting..." So be ready. Featuring no-wave diva, Lydia Lunch, punk poster girl Lung Leg and plenty of the agressively erotic imagery that New York photographer Richard Kern is famous for.
Review: This is a short story by Richard Kern, filmed in a way only underground cinema can be. No compromise, explicit scenes, eroticism meets death element. The type of stuff the hollywood fare and the typical film buff wouldn't even care to look at. For 'them', stuff that "anyone could make" - for me it's stuff the a true artist makes, even when he doesn't have big budget, the spirit is visible and can be felt anytime.
Review: Nick Zedd has a rough sexual playtime with two young women in the film's first half; in the second, whilst dressed in drag, he attempts to fellate a too-drunk Rick Strange. All the while, Killdozer's 'King Of Sex' grinds away on the soundtrack. Although the film's short length and use of rock music over dialogue inevitably lends 'King Of Sex' the air of an overly explicit music video, there do remain numerous undercurrents and aesthetic pre-occupations which occur throughout Kern's work. The film's structure, for instance, pre-empts his better-known 'The Evil Cameraman' in its first half documenting ritualistic S/M abuse, only for the second half to focus on the humiliation / emancipation of the earlier protagonist. As with all Kern shorts, this is kinky, greasy-looking stuff: tattooed New York punks making tattooed punk sleaze. Good music, too
Review: PIERCE is a short film of a real woman (friend of director Kern) getting her nipples pierced. The camera goes in really close so you know it's actually happening.
Review: This is the video for the song "Scooter and Jinx" on the album "Goo" by Sonic Youth. It depicts one woman (great-looking and punky) taking nude photos of another woman (also great-looking and punky), until something happens to the model. Cute, in a way, and silly, too. Not intentionally evil like many of his horrific films. In other words, this one doesn't give the viewer a terrible image in his or her head that can never be erased from their memory.
Review: This one follows a man who is in love with his favorite local artist.He follows him home and makes numerous unwanted sexual advances on the middle aged male painter, who ignores him throughout. Sexually frustrated he begin's to tear himself apart (literally) and not until he is a bloody dying mess on the floor does the artist take any notice, in the way of a sarcastic laugh.
Review: The term "shock value" is a major understatement for this film. Kern's use of camerawork and lighting is exceptional in itself, but the story line and soundtrack for his movies are generally designed to jar the audience out of a passive complacency, and my god does he know how to do that. This movie is indeed unique in that it attempts to portray a certain sensibility/point of view without any sort of compromise; there are no holds barred here and the audience is the target. Surrealistic angst driven to a frenzied pitch by the music and coupled with a blowjob from hell.
Review: Another one of Kern's acid filled short's from 1985, this one deserves to be show at every large family gathering you ever have (a friend of mine did once and sent the whole family (apart from his paraplegic grandmother) running out of the room). Starring the ever gorgeous Lung Leg as the errant daughter who decides to settle the score with her oppressive family in the only way she knows. Shot in Colour with the staple Zedd sound its a bit hard to make out in times but as always with his films the perseverence pays off, when will we ever see stuff like this on cable let alone terrestrial television?
Review: Lothar Schramm is a simple man with complex problems, yet he seems like such a nice guy. He works as a taxi driver and lives by himself where he is happy to answer his door to strangers and kill them outright. As with many shy loner types he has a problem dealing with woman so he drugs them and photographs their nude bodies for sexual stimulation. He then murders his helpless victims and so goes the life of a deranged serial killer.
Aka: Cries of Ecstasy, Blows of Death; Grida di Estasi
Review: Outta-the-ball-park sci fi weirdness from Italy that opens with scenes lifted from Romero's The Crazies then cuts to mushroom cloud footage which leads us to a post nuke desert populated by a gasmask clad cult who constantly screw each other in big plastic bubbles. How gonzo is this mess? The film has two seperate opening credit sequences, different titles and everything! In Italian ONLY
Review: Filmed entirely in a desolate field, Violent Virgin opens with two cars traveling along a dusty road. Three men and three women, apparently members of a gang, have a couple bound and blindfolded. After they reach their demonstration, they drag the man and woman, whose names we soon learn are Hoshi and Hanako, out of the cars and dump them on the ground. It seems that Hanako was the boss's girl, but she eloped with Hoshi. Captured, it seems that they are going to be murdered, but not before they are humiliated by the other gang members. Their clothes are eventually stripped off and Hanako is tied to a cross. Hoshi is informed that the big boss has ordered that he be made into the "boss" for the day. The male members of the gang refer to Hoshi as "boss" and each of the female members intend to have sex with him before he is killed. However, Hoshi strangles the first prostitute and runs. After this, things really begin to become bizarre.
Review: Quote: Frequently compared to maverick Japanese experimentalist Shinya Tsukamoto's hyperkinetic cyberpunk masterpiece Tetsuo: The Iron Man, director Shozin Fukui's Pinocchio 964 weaves the dark tale of a cybernetic sex android that escapes into society with no memory of the past and a desperate instinct for survival. When Pinocchio makes the acquaintance of amnesiac Kyoko, the pair offer support to one and other as they attempt to piece together their fragmented pasts and forge on into an uncertain future. As Pinocchio and Kyoko slowly begin to make sense of the mysterious forces that drew them together, Pinocchio's nefarious architect sends a team of agents to bring back his prototype before the world discovers his true potential — setting into motion a hallucinogenic fight for survival that must be seen to be believed. — Jason Buchanan
Review: this short film is less of a story, than a series of random events just strung together and tedious events at that. A crazy girl running, throwing up, spitting out ice cream, screaming, etc,etc
Review: A group of scientists are working to unleash the psychic potential in human beings. The company they work for decides the project is a loss and sends a secretary to tell them the news of the project's shutdown. The poor scientists react rather badly to the news, and in a desperate attempt to make a final breakthrough, subject one of their own ranks to the drug and device. He responds well so they put him in an isolating rubber suit that deprives him of all sensory input and begin to experiment on him in horrifying ways. Gruesome chaotic and truly devastating. Rubber's Lover will satisfy almost every horror fan.
Review: Part documentary, part narrative fiction, part home movie, and part acid trip. A psychedelic whirlwind of snapshots, Super-8 home movies, old answering machine messages, video diaries, early short films, snippets of '80s pop culture, and dramatic reenactments to create an epic portrait of an American family travesty. The story begins in 2003 when Jonathan learns that his schizophrenic mother, Renee, has overdosed on her lithium medication. He is catapulted back into his real and horrifying family legacy of rape, abandonment, promiscuity, drug addiction, child abuse, and psychosis. As he grows up on camera, he finds the escapist balm of musical theater and B horror flicks and reconnects to life through a queer chosen family. Then a look into the future shows Jonathan as he confronts the symbiotic and almost unbearable love he shares with his beautiful and tragically damaged mother.
Review: Sequel to "Tetsou" this time has the Iron Man transforming into cyberkinetic gun when a gang of vicious skinheads kidnap his son. When the skinheads capture him, they begin to experiment on him...speeding up the mutative process
Review: Hong Kong female police officer is stalked by a killer who thinks she is Satan’s daughter! The killer cuts the hearts out of his victims in order to test them to see if they can live without a heart-proving they are Satan’s daughter! Lots of gore and even some cool action in this strange horror-type film that deals a bit with Satanism!
Review: Director William Girdler's take on possession films about a marriage counselor (Carol Speed) who becomes possessed by a Demon of Sexuality, when her father in law (William Marshall) an Exorcist, freed it while in Africa.

Review: Another non-related sequel to the Beyond the Door series, this one rarely has anything to do with Chi sei?/Beyond the Door (1974) or Schock/Beyond the Door II (1977). With this one a shy co-ed and her class mates travel to Europe to see a ritual. With a Satanist/Professor with them he lures them into deadly traps to become sacrifices to Satan. One co-ed is a virgin the main key to bring Satan back to life. But can the co-ed lose her virginity before Satan controls the world?
Review: A young woman travels with her partner to England on the unexpected death of her brother. Staying with her sister-in-law, she finds her companion soon drawn into a satanic cult based in the house whose rites seem to centre somewhat on large-scale sexual congress.
Review: 1973 Spanish horror film from Eugenio ‘Horror Express’ Martin. Two evil, sexually frustrated sisters run a local boarding house/hotel in a small Spanish village called 'Meson las dos Hermanas' (aka Inn of the Two Sisters). Driven mad by their religious mania and sexual repression they kill the women whose morals they disapprove of with knives, meatcleavers and axes. The hacked up bodies and lumps of flesh are stored and hidden in wine vats in the hotel cellar to avoid suspicion. Grisly and gruesome knifings, axings, cleavings and very atmospheric scenery make this a superior and highly recommended film. Spanish horror doesn't get any better than this must see classic. Our version contains the nudity and violence missing from other versions and is much more complete than the butchered version under the title 'It Happened at Nightmare Inn'. Stars Judy Geeson, Aurora Bautista, Esperanza Roy, Lone Fleming, Victor Alcazar and Blanca Estrada.
Review: This movie starts with the teenager Peter (Jean-Claude Verne) who takes a picture of a mysterious naked woman (Mimma Monticelli) near a pastoral waterfall.

Review: Unrelentingly bizarre Hong Kong horror movie about an ancient curse which causes victims to vomit worms, maggots and slime. There's a rather convoluted murder mystery as well, but who cares about that? It's gore you want to see and its gore that you get--and it's some of the messiest ever to ooze across the screen. There are several scenes of ascending repulsiveness in which a victim flails on the ground as (real) worms, maggots, centipedes, eels, slime, blood and pus erupt from their mouths and skin. It's even more disgusting than it sounds. But the strangest thing about this movie is how light and cheery it is between the puking scenes. People laugh, ride through the park, go to the movies together, and there's an obnoxiously spunky little bellboy named Ding Dong (!). And, of course, there's the ridiculous dubbing job which is sure to annihilate any hint of scariness or atmosphere. There's a creepy opening in which a woman is mugged and has her face bashed in with a rock, followed by a scene in which a witch cuts open a sick man's stomach and scoops out all the maggots and worms infesting his guts. Yuck. After that, the aforementioned happy-go-lucky nonsense kicks in, and we have to wait a while for the next bout of nastiness. Be prepared to fast-forward through the incoherent plot and inane dialogue, but if you're a fan of Asian horror with a concentration on worm-puking, this is the movie for you. Worthy of note is the fact that a muzak version of Billy Joel's "The Stranger" plays during a bar scene.
Review: The story in this horror movie involves a young woman's unknowing participation in a satanic ceremony which causes her to be possessed by the spirit of her dead father. She promptly begins exhibiting the standard symptoms - curses, vomiting, and even twisting the heads of a few people 180 degrees. Naschy plays the village priest summoned to perform the rites of exorcism, and must fend off the possessed's lewd advances before casting the evil spirit out of her body.
Review: Turn-of-the-century occultist Alfred Fischer acquires a mystical medallion and conjures up a trio of ravishing, ravenous demons from the depths of hell.

Almost a century after Fischer meets his mysterious demise, a crack team of six parapsychologists investigate the manor and former brothel only to face an obstacle course of the seductive, sexy beasts, the madman owner with a satanic secret, and a horde of zombies making up of past victims bent on a rampage of carnal slaughter!

Review: Magdalena (Dagmar Hedrich) is an orphan at a girls' school who gets possessed by a demonic supernatural force. She goes into convulsions and makes furniture fly around the room before she gets some help from an exorcised.
Review: This extremely low-budgeted Italian effort is shoddy even for the most forgiving Euro-trash-fan. That doesn't mean it's a thoroughly unwatchable movie, but, well... there's not really much going on during the film. A young woman gets possessed by a sex-crazed ghost. She begins to seduce the men around her, even her dying grandfather, who doesn't survive her "attack" (in a scene which has to be seen to be believed). It's more sex than horror: Instead of gory moments you get hard core inserts (at least in the uncensored version). All in all quite an odd obscurity from Andrea Bianchi, recommended to die-hard-sleaze-freaks only.
Review: Teenage girl runs away from home because police officer/stepfather puts the moves on her. Hitchhiking to California, she gets picked up by two guys who are also traveling cross country.

Review: This story details the black magic activities of the teenage Daria, (a young Lara Wendel), who will stop at nothing in order to gain enough Satanic power in order to grow stronger in spirit and overthrow her mother, a white Witch, and her do-good coven. A very obscure, rarely seen and recommended Witchcraft film which contains nudity.
Review: A teenage girl, possessed by the lascivious spirit of her murdered mother, goes on a rampage of lust and destruction. What follows is nothing less than a full-tilt celebration of all things perverse, morally corrupt and thoroughly evil. Featuring a performance from Jacqueline Dupré in her first and only screen role, this self-described Eurosleaze sickie is a depraved sexploitation cult classic.

Review: Sharon Leslie plays a super model with amnesia. She's staying in a psychiatric hospital where her doctor is trying to uncover the repressed psychological trauma that put her in this state. It's partly a mystery, with the doctor as detective, in which they try to figure out who/what did this to her. Of course, it's also an exploitation movie with a lot of nudity and softcore sex. Sharon Leslie is attractive, and she looks a lot like the actress who played "Nola Darling" in Spike Lee's "She's Gotta Have it". The director of the original "Black Emanuelle", Aldaberto Albertini, also directed this one. His movies seem to focus more on character relationships/ psychological drama and are more cohesive than director Joe D'Amato's later movies. The movie is full of trippy flash back sequences and sexual suspense. Recommended!

Kay decides to enroll in an institute for sexual improvement. Howard finds out and decides to look into it. When he does, Howard and Kay live happily ever after.
Review: Directed by Elia Milonakos. Sexploitation silliness. This has the distinction of being one of the few films with "love camp" in the title that isn't about nazis. Laura Gemser plays "The Divine One" who rules a sex-cult that seems like a cross between Jim Jones' compound and Club Med! Some wild costumes, and periodic flogging of cult miscreants in case you get tired of the "love." With musical numbers.
Review: Emanuelle, a reporter, comes just a little too close to exposing a corrupt official, and is sent to prison on trumped-up charges. In the prison, the inmates are constantly humiliated and tortured by the prison staff. Overly affectionate prisoners are forced underwater, while others are obliged to look on. Emanuelle finds an enemy in the deranged Albina, who "runs the prison." For the pleasure of the warden, Emanuelle and Albina are forced to fight each other with knives. Bad becomes worse when four men awaiting execution escape and take over the prison. Gore flows like water.
Review: When Emanuelle (Gemser) arrives in the small Italian village heads start turning and eyes start popping. All males in the town are falling all over themselves trying to get a look (or a feel) of the new doctor. One in particular is the fiancee of the mayor's daughter. A kind of "Hatfield's and McCoy's" feud with a political twist has been going on and the young lovers' families are, unfortunately, on opposite sides. Emanuelle's shower becomes the target of a gang of voyeurs, including the pillars of the community. She uses it as a stage to taunt the watchers to charge into her apartment on the notion that she is showering with the mayor's daughter's fiancee. Instead of what they expected, they find the two young lovers in bed. Can Emanuelle shame them into allowing the marriage that they had been preventing?

Laura Gemser narrates and gets nude of course. Shocking, outrageous, hyper-sleazy mondo in it's UNCUT Italian print! Do not worry about the lack of English options- this one is actually a montage of sleazy images without even slight storyline or plot! Not to be confused with EMANUELLE AND THE PORNO NIGHTS- the other Mattei mondo-mess starring (actually hosted by) Laura Gemser.

Review: This is one of the more bizarre entries in the Emanuelle series, playing more like a sex-themed giallo.

Review: Emmanuelle is a beautiful young model and lives in Bankok together with her husband Jean, who's several years older. She likes him because he's taught her much, and he likes her because she's learning so well - and wants to often. Both are very tolerant in matters of extramarital affairs, so he doesn't mind the young Marie-Ange coming over erver so often, although she obviously wants more than talk from his wife. But Emmanuelle is more fascinated by the older Bee, and joins her on a trip into the jungle.
Review: A rare foray into semi-mainstream cinema for art-house eroticist Borowczyk that tried to capitalize on the fast-fading box-office appeal of Sylvia Kristel. The former mainstay of Andy Warhol's Factory, Joe Dallesandro brings his usual lumpen sullenness to his role as a businessman who develops an unhealthy obsession with a streetwalker (Kristel). Aside from a curious sequence with an egg, the film lacks the eye for detail and almost tactile eroticism that permeates Borowczyk's peculiar oeuvre and, on the whole, tends to be dismissed by even the film-maker's most ardent supporters.
Review: Emmanuelle returns to her husband in Hong Kong and proceeds to have several extramarital affairs -- with his knowledge, of course. Her husband's lover and American guest are both very puzzled by their openness.
Review: There is only one reason to see this flick and that reason is Shauna O'Brien. She is the hottest actress I have ever seen. She has made a lot of movies [mostly softcore porno flicks like this one], but this is her best one. It's also better than most of the recent EMMANUELLE movies. Though not perfect, Shauna O'Brien makes it worth seeing a couple million times.

Review: In order to escape from her former lover Marc, Sylvia goes to Brazil where Dr. Santamo transforms her into the beautiful Emmanuelle.

Review: As the aliens near the end of their sexual odyssey, Emmanuelle and her intergalactic lover experience spiritual and physical pleasure for possibly the last time.
Review: This has to be one of the best if not the best of the Emmanuelle series. Francis Leroi did an excellent job of making just about every scene in the movie erotic. The story revolves around a virtual reality machine which makes peoples fantasies come true.(Not to be confused with the later American version) This movie is mostly shot in France which gives the scenes extra authenticity. Sylvia and friend go back to their younger days when they were at a catholic all girls boarding school and progress from there. Her friend is suffering from a bad sexual experience. One scene is where they make out in the dormitory in view of the other girls, who use flashlights to see what is happening. Other scenes include a rape scene in a meat factory. A Marilyn Monroe look alike who shows off her assets. Casual sex with a stranger. An erotic bath house scene where a woman goes into the mens bath house and you can guess what happens. The advantage to this movie is the women are all beautiful and can act. Most scenes have full nudity in them, rather than partial nudity like some of the earlier Emmanuelles. The movie has enough erotic content to make it one of the best.
Review: Emmanuelle and Tasha go to Vegas so that Emmanuelle can teach Tasha, and her people from space, about sex.

Review: In the latest installment of the never ending Emmnauelle series, our titular heroine, played by Natasja Vermeer this time out, takes on Dracula at her friend's bachlorette party. The plot is paper thin and the production value are pretty weak, but Natasja is stunning and of the supporting players, Mollie Green is a stand out as she fakes a pretty good orgasm. Good for the sex scenes, but hard to sit through and watch. Also starring Beverly Lynne, Kelsey and Valerie Baber. Full title: Emmanuelle the Private Collection: Emmanuelle vs. Dracula.

Review: This film is an official sequel to the original 1974 release directed by Just Jaeckin and starring Sylvia Kristel. Alas, Jaeckin's lush, erotic style is poorly imitated by director Francis Leroi (rumored to be a pseudonym for European porn pioneer, Lasse Braun) and Kristel's better days were already well behind her when this movie was made. The basic premise involves a now older Emmanuelle (Kristel) regaling a businessman (George Lazenby of ill-fated Bond fame) with stories of her past erotic exploits while on a flight to God knows where. The film then reverts to flashbacks in which said exploits are depicted in typical softcore fashion, with pouty Marcela Walerstein in the role of the younger Emmnauelle. This was actually one in a series of 6 films made back-to-back by producer Alain Siritzky, all with the same cast, sets and basic premise. The others being: Emmanuelle Forever, Emmanuelle's Love, Emmanuelle in 7th Heaven, Emmanuelle's Magic and Emmanuelle in Venice.
Review: This is not a new film. It is a re-cut of 1994's "Emmanuelle, Queen of the Galaxy", and it has been significantly truncated. Warning: Many characters appear in the credits that have been cut from the movie! If you want to see this one in its original form, pick up "Queen" - avoid this one at all costs, as the cuts make it even choppier than it was originally.

Review: Jekyll and Hyde get a sex change! When slimy stud Dr. Chris Leeder (Jack Buddliner) takes possession of Dr. Jekylls ancient notebook, he quickly becomes obsessed with the murderous sex crimes of the original Mr. Hide. Ignoring the notebooks warning that the Jekyll and Hyde formula "makes people appear as they really are," the demented doc mixes the potion and promptly turns into..."Miss Hyde" (Jane Tsentas), a sexy blonde in a mini-skirt who just happens to be a homicidal nymphomaniac! After enjoying a lesbian romp with Leeders secretary (legendary skinflick starlet Rene Bond), and the sadistic slaughter of a drunken sailor (ouch!), Miss Hide decides to pay a visit to Leeders fiancee (Jennifer Brooks) and permanently cancel the wedding. Gender-bending adult horror, "The Adult Version of Jekyll and Hide" is another outrageous classic from the Mighty Monarch of Sexploitation, producer David F. Friedman.
Review: From director Paul Morrissey who was part of Any Warhol's inner circle. This film was heavily edited, but now, like the monster itself, it rises again with all its perversity, camp and gut-wrenching effects intact in this long-awaited director's cut.
Review: Der Todesengel has the kind of plot that usually fills the gaps between sex scenes in a porno. Despite having a plethora of subplots which basically involve women either stripping or being abused, the film ultimately shapes up as a battle of wills between a nude model turned lesbian assassin, Manila and an organised crime syndicate who specialise in pimping kidnapped women. After approximately an hour of seemingly random sex and violence, Manila finally appears in the film and is promptly raped by an idiotic pair of Bavarian gangsters and left for dead. Manila survives, but her ordeal changes her into a blood thirsty lesbian who embarks on a man killing rampage. In a quieter moment, Manila stumbles across the men who attacked her on the way to dispose of some body parts. This sets up the final battle as Manila takes on her attackers and their gang, wearing vinyl hot pants and sky high stilettos. The first half of Der Todesengel is what I would describe as relatively harmless sleaze. There is sex and violence, and of course sexual violence, but the content is comparable to any number of Euro-sexploitation films of the 1970s. I suspect this material might have been used as padding (not that the film needed it - the uncut version of Der Todesengel has a mind-boggling running time of almost 3 hours) because the second half has an entirely different feel. The violence is nastier, the sex is more explicit and the film finally begins to feel somewhat cohesive and gathers momentum. The film's second half contains enough carnage, torture, bondage and explicit sex to ensure Bethmann's reputation as the undisputed king of the modern video nasty. Bethmann's films do not have an ounce of political correctness in them and therein ultimately lies their value. Anything goes in this film - my "highlights" include Manila pleasing herself with a decapitated head, Manila finding time to masturbate while breaking into the enemy compound, a knifing reminiscent of the prostitute's fate in "Seven" and the infamous castration scene. This kind of material is obviously not for every taste but for all its excess, I find it hard to be shocked or offended by Der Todesengel. The violence is not realistic, the acting is amusingly awful and the sex will not shock anyone who has ever strayed into the adult section of their local video store. The combination of all these elements is occasionally confronting but more often than not the film is simply too ridiculous to be offensive.
Review: A young woman finds herself held against her will in an eerie mental asylum by the sinister "Dr. Specter" and his masculine-looking assistant, Martine. She begins to suspect that the visions of horror she experiences are not nightmares and that she is due to be sacrificed to The Evil One.
Review: Bad Boy Bubby is just that: a bad boy. So bad, in fact, that his mother has kept him locked in their house for his entire thirty years, convincing him that the air outside is poisonous. After a visit from his estranged father, circumstances force Bubby into the waiting world, a place which is just as unusual to him as he is to the world.

Review: Seven girls must spend the night in an old house, which once was a brothel, as part of an initiation. Tagline: Their hazing was a night to dismember...
Review: More HK weirdness about a cop who is killed in the line of duty and returns from the grave after being struck by lightning. This film has developed a cult following over the years because of the infamous "Breast milk" scene featuring busty Amy Yip! Worth the watch.
Review: A poisonous "rat monkey" is taken from a desert island to a zoo in New Zealand. Lionel takes his girlfriend Paquita there. His pain-in-the-ass mother follows him, probably suffering from some kind of reverse Oedipus complex. She is bitten by the monkey and gradually turns into a zombie. Then she goes around hunting people, and everybody she bites also turn into zombies. Lionel has bigger and bigger problems fighting the zombies and hiding them from Paquita and the rest of the world. Finally, Lionel and Paquita get into a fight with hundreds of zombies during a party at Lionel's home.
Review: This film exists halfway between softcore lesbian porn and gore-soaked splatter as a cheap exploitation film that tries and then fails to do both, without too much concern for acting or dialogue. Mountains of barely clad female flesh go hand in hand with ridiculous violence in this barely recognisable adaptation of an obscure Bram Stoker story about a coven of rat-worshipping female bandits. While there isn't actually any lesbianism shown on camera the implication of its existence overwhelms virtually every other aspect of `Burial of the Rats'. The story follows the adventure of young Bram Stoker and his father, attacked by the bandits during their travels abroad. The younger Stoker kills one of them and is captured; the elder one tries to convince the local constabulary to search for his missing son even after receiving such matter-of-fact advise as `Go on home, and forget all about your son!' In a matter of hours young Bram has fallen in love with one Barbie-doll proportioned Rat Woman and become sympathetic to the others' cause, even if it entails murderous raids on monasteries and brothels. Meaningless topless dancing scenes and silly violence follow, including a gratuitous torture dungeon sequence and the sight of a bucketful of rats picking a corpse clean to a bleached skeleton in a matter of seconds. That a god-fearing Victorian moralist like Stoker would have even conceived of something like this is unlikely: `Burial of the Rats' is pure William Castle camp from the prison guard who can't recognise the protagonist because he has a hat on (!!) to the ludicrous moment when the Rat Queen plucks a disobedient rodent out of the pack on the floor at her feet and cuts its head off-with a miniature guillotine! Insipid and inane but much more fun than a dozen far more well-made `serious' films, this is a bad movie lovers delight
Review: A depraved religious fanatic sets out to punish all the "immoral" women who have posed for the center-fold of a men's magazine. Tagline: The most beautiful girls in the world! He was their JUDGE... JURY... and EXECUTIONER!

Seducing her way through the LA nightlife, eventually getting stronger and stronger with each kill. Discovering that past love Roxanne, (Kennedy Johnston) is alive, both begin mad pursuit to reclaim her love.
Review: A gruesome homage to the cult Amicus anthology Asylum, Cradle of Fear unfolds four screamplays all linked by the unspeakable need of an incarcerated child killer to wreak vengeance on those responsible for his imprisonment. Helped by deranged angel Dani Filth, who leaves a trail of charnel house death in his crimson wake, the cannibal convict forces two Goth vamps to endure a one night stand from hell, two tough female robbers to see through each other, an obscenely rich coke-head to chop up more than a few lines and an internet surfer to descend into madness when he uncovers the ultimate web depravity.
Review: Several young boys are murdered in a remote village rife with sex and superstition, and the townspeople go mad with rage and violence. But when a hard-nosed reporter and promiscuous young woman search for the true killer, they discover a fiend--and motive--even more shocking than the crimes themselves. 'Don't Torture A Duckling' is a landmark giallo so savage, it could only come from the mind of director Lucio Fulci (The Beyond, Zombie, City of the Living Dead). Featuring an international all-star cast that includes Tomas Milian, Barbara Bouchet, Irene Papas, and Florinda Bolkan, this re-discovered classic has been restored from the original vault materials and is presented completely uncut and uncensored.
Review: See the battle of the monsters, Goliath versus Ook! "South Pacific" star Rossano Brazzi plays the crackpot Frankenstein whose latest creature is a goofy, dome-headed neanderthal cleverly named Goliath. Typical of monsters, Goliath has the hots for Frankenstein's new squeeze, Krista, who likes to bathe in milk. When Genz, a horny necrophile dwarf, is expelled from the castle, he promptly makes friends with Ook, a second neanderthal just passing through town. Out for revenge, Genz lets Goliath loose to go head to pointy-head with Ook in a good old-fashioned monster rumble
Review: Judith Fontaine (Regina Carrol) is looking for her sister Joanie, who has disappeared into the hippie community of Venice, California. It turns out Joanie has become the victim of Groton (Lon Chaney Jr.), an axe-wielding homicidal maniac working for Dr. Durray (J. Carrol Naish), who is really the last of the Frankensteins and is now running a house of horrors by the beach and is performing experiments on Gorton's victims. One night Count Dracula (Zandor Vorkov) visits the doctor, showing him the original Frankenstein creation that was buried in a nearby graveyard. The doctor revives it and uses it to take revenge on his professional rivals.
Review: For those of you who don’t know the story, it’s about 3 fairy/ghost sisters who seduce men while battling an evil demon. Lots of full frontal nudity and eroticism in this one! Lots of hot babes too!
Review: The soon-to-be Monk Talkative does his best to understand when Fairy Yeh explains what must be done. Rabbit spirits have escaped from the heavenly garden, and must be recaptured. These bunnies can assume human female form, and gorgeous forms at that. One is played by Pang Dan, who happens to be the soon-to-be Monk Talkative's wife. Talkative finds the explanation hard to follow (as do we the audience) but decides to help. Meanwhile, another rabbit spirit escapes, is rescued from hunters by scholar Yu-shu, who takes the rabbit home. While Yu-shu sleeps (with the rabbit in his bed !), the rabbit turns into the luscious Siu Mui (Keung Ka Ling), who makes love with him while he somehow manages to remain asleep. Yu-shu awakes next morning to find he is no longer a virgin, and also that a lovely young woman is calling him hubby. Perhaps in shock, or fearing that his blind mother might wonder, he tries to convince her to leave. Pang Dan's character also does the "Virgin Stance" with another bunny, played by Wong Nei. Lots of confusion and daftness follows, as the forces of heaven (the bad guys, lead by the evil Queen Of Heaven) pursue the bunnies, with concealed identities and misunderstandings all over the place.
Review: The movie starts with some clips from the first movie, recapping some of the events of that film. Wu-Tung, the demon sex god (or whatever he is) appears in another body, and takes up with a willing female partner. However, Heaven sends two "fairies" (what the subtitles called them: they're probably something else) to keep them apart by burning the woman at stake. They put her spirit into some kind of pill, and toss it out a window. The spirit pill lands on the shoulder of a baby girl being born. The girl grows up in a village that regularly sacrifices virgins to Wu-Tung. Wu-Tung, though now with a female counterpart of himself who growls and hisses about as much as he, is still looking for his lost love. It's inevitable that the girl will become slated to become one of the sacrifices. However, she has some attraction to a fisherman in her village. Some have called him handicapped, but I didn't pick up on that apart from his occasional too-wide goofy grin. There are a lot of colorful costumes in the movie, although Wu-Tung's get-up is pretty ridiculous. He has a giant white fright wig that must be three feet across at least, along with white face makeup, a metallic-looking phallic tail, huge shoulder pads, etc.: really silly. Some of the sets and outdoor locations are picturesque, while others are on the poor side. Cinematography was generally pretty good. Soundtrack was generally pretty bad, particularly the saxophone music.
Review: Pretty standard entry in the Erotic Ghost Story series stars Pauline Chan as a ghost/woman who falls for some guy who falls prey to the dark side, or something like that. Like A Chinese Ghost Story, our hero ends up hanging with lots of ghosts in the woods. Unfortunately, his soul or something will be stolen so he must be freed with the help of a wacky monk, who’s played by riotously famous ugly guy Shing Fui-On. Otherwise, there’s just lots of sex and nudity to tide the fans over. As cult HK smut goes this film doesn’t really rise to the heights (or sink to the depths) of Sex and Zen or the previous Erotic Ghost Story movie. There’s a little over-the-topness, but not as much as number two, which had Anthony Wong to enliven things. And by now the formula is getting stale. Only for the most hardcore Category III fan.
Review: A very fun film, Erotic Nightmare features Anthony Wong as said teacher who starts having jarring twist-ending sex dreams about his female students that leave him startled awake and dry humping his wife who has a heart condiion and can't ride his mule every night. When a skitchy magician offers his services to fix up Lok's (Wong) smut dreams, stuff starts going' down hard in his real life--violent murders and whatnot.
Review: This one's undoubtedly superior to Dracula, PRISONER OF FRANKENSTEIN (1971) – displaying a fair evidence of style throughout (notably some Bava-esquire lighting).It utilizes a lot of the same cast as that film: Dennis Price, in fact, returns as Frankenstein but gets little to do (this is his least performance in a Franco film – especially embarrassing when his character is regenerated); Howard Vernon now turns up as Cagliostro (I had been underwhelmed by his performance when I watched the Spanish version a few years back, but he's actually quite commanding); Anne Libert gets her most impressive role as Melissa, the blind and eccentric "Bird Woman" in Cagliostro's service (though the mysterious zombie-like figures who witness the titular events from behind bars are just as grotesquely made-up); Britt Nichols is underused, but her luscious figure gets exposed this time around (and, in any case, she's perfectly cast as Cagliostro's proposed bearer of a new master race); Alberto Dalbes also returns as Dr. Seward where, again, he's the hero; ditto Fernando Bilbao as Frankenstein's monster (given a curious silver make-up here); Luis Barboo is on hand as well but, now, he plays Cagliostro's henchman rather than Frankenstein's (the latter role is taken all too briefly at the very start by Franco himself); Daniel J. White also gets more screen-time than in the previous film (where he was just an extra) as a Police Inspector. Missing here – consequently, the film runs for a mere 70 minutes! – is the irrelevant gypsy subplot (featuring Lina Romay) filmed some time later and eventually incorporated into the Spanish variant, dubbed LA MALDICION DE FRANKENSTEIN aka THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN – though the English-language edition I watched also bears this title!! Still, the would-be erotic rites (presented clothed in Spain) are silly rather than titillating: actually, there's only one (in which the monster is made to whip the naked figures of Barboo and Frankenstein's daughter in a dungeon with a spiked floor), as the intended procreation scene involving Bilbao and Nichols is ultimately interrupted by the heroes. Cagliostro's flight at the end, then, suggests that a further instalment may have been intended – but it never transpired. Opinions about this particular version seem to go from one extreme to the other: it's neither one of Franco's top efforts nor among his worst, hence the middle-of-the-road rating I gave it. On the other hand, everybody seems to agree that the alternate Spanish release is a lesser achievement – even so, it's not that the loss of the tacked-on footage (or, for that matter, the benefit of nudity) dramatically alters the quality of the finished product!
Review: A model named Barbara Hallen (Caroline Munro) has disappeared and her father (Telly Savalas) gets private detective Sam Morgan (Chris Mitchum) to go to Paris to find his daughter. Barbara's trail leads Morgan to a plastic surgery clinic owned by Dr. Flamand (Helmut Berger). Morgan's investigation reveals the horrifying secret behind the Doctor's miracle cures which is blood and organs taken from kidnapped young women. As Morgan's investigation closes witnesses are eliminated one by one, each in a more horrible way.

Review: Driving in their car through France one summer, two young girls - Anna and Francoise - find themselves prisoners of the mythic Morgane, Queen of Witches. Ever since Merlin taught her his secrets centuries before, Morgane has gone on living by capturing the souls of young women, lured to her castle by Gurth, her faithful but jealous slave.

Review: More killer off the wall HK fantasy and gore stuff. The moon monster (a sort of fox lycanthrope) starts killing when the moon turns red. Finally a Cambodian princess comes to stop the creature and the results are a cool battle between good and evil! This one has lots of insane action, gore and lots of nudity.
Review: The Wolfman, Dracula and Frankenstein spy on a girls' school in the mountains, where most of the girls spend their time sunbathing in the nude, nude exercises and nude art classes. The monsters finally invade the school...
Review: Lilli Palmer owns and runs a school for wayward girls in Spain. Her absolute discipline has fostered a social order among the girls with rampant sex, lesbianism and torture the norm. Palmer also has an adolescent son (Moulder Brown) she tries to keep isolated from the young women lest he be tainted by sexual relations; She explains that he must wait for a girl "just like his mother". Meanwhile, girls are "running away" (being murdered) one by one, with their corpses and any evidence of their outcome not to be found. Beware cut versions; the film was shown back in the 70's on network TV chopped to only 76 minutes!
Review: After their prison ship sinks in the Caribbean, a group of prisoners and a doctor wash ashore on a seemingly deserted island. They soon discover a strange couple, who invite them to stay at their house. While the prisoners try to plan an escape, the doctor does some investigating, and soon finds out just what the pair are really doing, and why the prisoners keep disappearing mysteriously. Tagline: They're men turned inside out! And worse... they're still alive!
Review: This is a rare low budget gem that fans of Asian splatter will likely get a kick out of. Gory eye candy is on display for much of the running time, and includes some great graphic dismemberment as well as other forms of mutilation. Like another reviewer pointed out, the middle portion of the film goes on too long and could have been shortened to make for a better paced and more enjoyable watch. The whole cult angle is a bit over played but the movie pretty much redeems itself.
Review: A lurid and laughable sci-fi/horror exploitator from sleaze king Harry Novak, this nudie-cutie will make you afraid of things that go bump and grind in the night! Sterilox, a man from the planet Droopiter, visits mad Dr. Breedlove in search of some ideal breeding stock. Luckily, amongst the monsters are lots of lingerie-clad and naked women
Review: Mina Harker isn't the happiest of Hollywood Hills wives - even though she's married to wealthy pharmaceuticals magnate Jonathan Harker. The repressed Mina longs for Jonathan's love and the happiness a child would bring them, yet the arrival of the beautiful and mysterious Dracula - seductive vampire servants at her side - will change their lives forever. Dracula offers Mina the existence she so desperately craves - one that is immediately threatened by Mina's sister, Dr. Abigail Van Helsing. Van Helsing seeks to not only destroy the monstrous vampire but covet Mina's seemingly perfect life and husband Jonathan, too. As these troubled characters move ever closer toward their destinies and a final battle with Dracula, blood will be spilled, souls will be destroyed, and true love will become undying.

She then discovers a bizarre sexual "secret" about the monster and falls madly in lust! Obsessed with the passion rekindled by the creature's lovemaking, she sets out to fulfill its demands for fresh human blood! Her victims include a stripper (Amber Newman) and other poor unfortunates!

Photographer Anna takes a picture of him in the park, and he pursues and befriends her. Is she the one he's been looking for or just another mommy wanna be?
Review: A disgraced ancient Egyptian sorceress(Ava Niche)is brought back to life in modern day Los Angeles to reclaim an old love in the spirit of a college student(Sasha Peralto). Naked lovin', touchin' and squeezin'. Flimsy, hackneyed story line; but at least one is attempted. Also in the cast are: George Thomas, Aysia Lee and Richard Lynch. Listed as a horror movie; but actually just a skin flick.(I am not complaining).
Review: Set against Sin City, Las Vegas, "Murder-Set-Pieces" tells the story of a fashion photographer whose vocation is murder. Shot on 35mm film, "Murder-Set-Pieces" is a vicious assault on your senses. Director Nick Palumbo ("Nutbag") guides you through this voyeuristic nightmare of blood, sex and brutality
Review: A mental-patient, who is troubled with horrible nightmares, has escaped from his hospital. Now on the streets he can´t help killing innocent people. But there is one family he is more than interested in and when he tries to kill them, he finds that it´s not that easy.
Review: Early Rollin and certainly not as polished as his later Fascination or La Morte Vivante but a must-see for his true fans as all his trademark fetishes (sexy twin nymphettes,silent sirens in diaphanous gowns,a beach-set climax) are present and accounted for. The story may be little more than a bit of ponderous nonsense (perceived girl vampire turns out to be the next step in human evolution as well as a crossover from another world/planet) but to knock the flick for that is missing the point by about a mile. Rollin always took his inspiration from schlocky adult comics,preferring to deal in artful fantasy rather than dreary reality,dressing his intentionally wooden actresses (pretty pawns) in outlandish outfits and having them move about like animated mannequins in extremely photogenic decors. It could be argued that this amounts to little more than surface gloss but that would be overlooking Rollin's quasi-unique gift for visual poetry,virtually unparallelled in world cinema.
Review: The story starts out innocently enough. Gökalp, the editor of the high school journal, has a crush on pretty Güldem, which he expresses through a series of carefully handwritten stories, delivered in fancy red envelopes. Güldem’s already taken, though, and her thick-skulled boyfriend Ersin publicly humiliates Gökalp for his platonic puppy love. As a result, Gökalp commits suicide. A year later, the university entrance exams are coming up fast and all the students in the boarding school are stressed beyond belief. Gökalp’s suicide still troubles Güldem, especially when a series of increasingly eerie and inexplicable events begin to suggest that the lovestruck writer may be dead but not gone. In the chaos of the exam crunch, the school’s staff are far too tied up to be of any help, so it’s left to Güldem, Ersin and their friends to confront the tragic—and possibly lethal—ghost together. Okul turns a new page in Turkish cinema, previously devoid of anything fitting into the horror genre. Not only does Okul, which means “school,” bring the American teen chiller to Turkey (sexy school uniforms and clownish teachers intact), it also challenges the mores and conventions of Turkish society. Far from the usual family-centered dramas, it’s set in a boarding school where the kids are unrestrained by any authority other than perhaps the goofy security guard Suleyman. It’s a clear effort on the part of producer Sinan Çetin and the directing duo of Yagmur and Durul Taylan (like the Wachowskis and Pangs, another brother team) to create a film that speaks to the increasingly hip and Westernized Turkish youth, blending spine-tingling terror, touching romance and an authentic eye for the joys, pains and antics of the modern teenager. —Rupert Bottenberg
Review: Young co-eds are being cut up by a chainsaw killer on a college campus. The killer is attempting to put together a human jigsaw puzzle made from body parts.
Review: A group of castaways wash ashore on a deserted island in this Italian sex/gore movie. They are unaware that a sex-crazed radioactive monster is also on the island. He attacks and rapes several of the women, who die horrible deaths because his sperm is radioactive. The survivors must find a way to either escape the island or kill the monster.
Review: Olaf Ittenbach has made himself a name among splatter freaks in the German language area, and aside from Andreas Schnaas ("Violent S***" trilogy) and Andreas Bethmann ("Der Todesengel") he was the most active so called "amateur" splatter director in the 1990s. His first three movies "Black Past", "The Burning Moon" and "Premutos" are entertaining gratuitous gorefests with excellent gore effects and technically quite good (except for the dialogue that was always poorly dubbed during post production). But without a doubt, his three gorefests are superior to the work of the to Andreases mentioned above. Concerning the plot and the dubbing, "Riverplay" undoubtedly is superior to Ittenbach's earlier films, and the film itself is a homage to John Boorman's "Deliverance" and similar films, although it's not a revenge movie as such. There are some cool twists and psychologically highly interesting characters, and the story keeps on going during the entire running time: it never gets stuck or becomes tedious (frequently a problem in "amateur" productions when they try to tell a story). The only problem is that the actors are not very good (which is also a recurring problem with "amateur" productions), and because the script offers such psychologically interesting dialogues and riveting story development, the lack of convincing acting only becomes more obvious.
Review: Screaming Dead opens with a scantily clad young girl (EI Cinema's latest regular, cutie AJ Khan) tied down to some devious torture chamber device as an apparently evil photographer snaps photos of the terrified young girl (who really believes she is about to meet her doom, no...really!). Of course all of this is only a set up to let the viewer in on just how demented of a genius (s'posed genius, that is) photog Roger Neal (Joseph Ferrell) really is. Anyway, the deal is that Roger takes these sick B&W photos of young women and sells them for about 10,000 a piece (makes sense to me). Oddly enough, the young girls work for free, just for the prestigious opportunity to actually be in a Roger Neal photograph, or at least this is what his assistant Maura (played by Rachel Robbins) tells us Moving along, Roger has arranged to have his latest shoot o' perversion (with three lovely young ladies) to take place at an old abandoned mental institution. However, he wasn't counting on the 'chiseled out of stone' Sam Rogan (Rob Monkiewicz) to baby sit (and offer much friction) during the entire event. Now, who these lovely young women actually are is really not so meaningful, they have names like Lauren and Bridget (Misty Mundae), but this is really not all that important. Through the telling of a campfire tale (sans the actual campfire) it's brought to light that a maniac with a penchant for torturing young ladies used to reside in a secret room in the building (big surprise, huh?). Blah, blah, blah, and yadda, yadda, yadda, all hell breaks loose the final 20-minutes of the film.
Review: An unspeakable act of cruelty sets the stage for horror in this evocatively-titled thriller spanning the supernatural from World War II to today, as a defiled and betrayed family haunts her persecutors from the Tao Tao Mansion
Review: Crazy horror/monster-type film from Hong Kong about a half-snake/half-human woman who escapes burning to live with a human man. She is impregnated and lays her eggs hoping to keep the species alive. As with a lot of these Hong Kong films, a couple of other sub-plots develops and next thing you know there’s sex, murder/conspiracies and a vengeful ending in which the snake woman has her revenge! This film is rated Category III (NC-17) and so contains scenes of nudity, sex, violence, gore and supernatural situations…In other words, it’s a must see!
Review: A publicist's agent seeks to purchase the rights to the life story and estate of cult movie icon of early 20th Century. When she meets the icon's remaining relatives living a life of hedonism, she uncovers more than skeletons in their closet...she learns that sometimes it the snake who can charm her victim.
Review: In 1968, Silvio Amadio directed L'isola delle svedesi (Island of the Swedes) (1969), the story which bordered on the dramatic and erotic genre about two lesbian women and the arrival of a third party in their ménage, a young boy, which leads to tragic consequences. The script was by Roberto Natale, who had already worked with Mario Bava and who went on to write Peccati di gioventù (So Young, So Lovely, So Vicious...) for Amadio where the lesbian theme is tackled in a similar way to the previous film. The female “special love” trend was a reality which was already consolidated in European cinema of this genre, following the huge success of Les biches by Claude Chabrol (1968) and Le salamandre by Alberto Cavallone (1969). This was a popular theme with the audiences and in the case of Peccati di gioventù includes the attraction represented by Gloria Guida, an actress who was rising to stardom and who owed her film debut to Silvio Amadio who discovered her and brought out the best in her more than any other director. Alongside Gloria Guida was the beautiful Dagmar Lassander, who also created a chromatic contrast (the blonde Guida, Lassander the red-head), which in the erotic scenes interpreted by them with the wild and contaminated natural landscape of Sardegna (where the film is set) as background, the fascinating vision of everything (it must be mentioned that the images of their “intimate moments” the actresses experienced together in the film were published in many glamour magazines of that time causing a great stir). Silvio Amadio's film, not only in the formal beauty or the exploitation aspect, disguises the interest because even the structure of the psychological nature of the characters and the game played by them are described in great detail by the script written by Roberto Natale. Invisible for many years, Peccati di gioventù can be seen for the first time in home video format, in the original uncut version.
Review: Christian (Robert Hoffman) and his girlfriend are taking a walk on a deserted beach when they discover a woman's body lying. A closer look proves that she's alive. The next day Christian meets her again at a yacht party and they fall in love.

A few hours later they find out that the corpse is missing and a series of weird incidents takes place
Review: Wandering the zombie wasteland, Matool (Kurly Tlapoyawa) survives by his wits and animal instinct, often employing his trusty hammer and gigantic nails to fend off the hordes of undead. But when he is kidnapped by a mysterious couple, Matool must rely on an entirely different weapon in his arsenal to survive.
Review: A couple on their honeymoon spend the night at a castle. Little do they know that there are some sinister things going on. Eventually they get caught up in the peversion and mayhem. The married couple are both attractive to look at (especially the bride, who is stunning), and there's enough nudity to satisfy even the most jaded of viewers. Soft-core regular Jane Tsentas makes an appearance and does a lot with a very small role. No dialog, as they hadn't the budget for sound. Instead, there is a voice-over narration. Good, harmless fun.

Review: 'Nekro' is a short film (about ten minutes or so) that has little in the way of plot and virtually no dialogue. What it does have is probably the most powerful 10 minutes of horror cinema you're ever likely to see...and some! Ultra violent and sexually graphic, 'Nekro' is a stunning little film that will both shock and scare you with its undiluted high impact onslaught of brutal horror.

Pictures of centerfold models and serial killers decorate the walls. Human body parts are neatly displayed, floating in formaldehyde, sealed in glass jars. Rob adds to his collection daily, much to Betty`s delight. Not content with body parts alone, one day Rob surprises Betty by presenting her with a bloated corpse pulled from a swamp. Betty is overjoyed, and with the rotten corpse between them, they pledge undying love. But all good things must end. Betty soon becomes enamored with the corpse, and leaves Rob alone, taking it with her as a parting gift. Unable to cope with this loss, Rob travels a twisted road of sickness and self-abuse before finding salvation and happiness through a very sharp knife. Completed in 1987, Nekromantik shocked the world, proving that director Jörg Buttgereit and low budget filmmaking were forces to reckon with. Not for the squeamish, Nekromantik was always presented uncut and unrated. Featuring some of the darkest, most stomach-churning scenes ever commited to celluloid, JB`s Nekromantik has been lauded by critics as the first post-modern horror film. German with english subtitles track.

Review: A Japanese short film in the tradition of the Guinea Pig series. Some nasty looking monster dude wearing an over coat and mask goes after a group of people doing research of some sort at a lab. In the opening scene, an old man has his eye pulled out in graphic detail, making the famous "Zombie eye gouge" look tame.

Then the monster pulls her tongue out for good measure
Review: This is a rather silly little film about a man whose rubber sex doll comes alive and tries to kill him. It has spoof-like scenes from other horror films, has the doll imitates scenes from The Shining & The Exorcist. It's just like a female sex mad version of Chucky from Child's Play. It passes 16 minutes away though.
Review: Black Rituals Of Satanic Sex Cults is a fantastic collection of perverted short films sure to tickle the fancy of any smut aficionado.

Review: Killer Pussy opens much like Peter Jackson’s Braindead, during a crazy jungle expedition near the Okavango Delta in the Republic of Botswana. Like Braindead, some explorers run into a few red-garbed tribal folks, ending with a member of the crew becoming infected. This time, instead of a rat-monkey, a sorry someone is infected by a parasite resembling a pissed off Aylmer (Brain Damage). Instead of a bite causing infection, she is penetrated while sitting on the group’s Styrofoam container. Thus begins a typically zany Japanese journey. Jump to some time in the future. A group of five (two guys and three gals) enter an abandoned building at the end of a wooded path. Their purpose is to spend the night in the building to have sex, drink booze and party. The ladies waste no time busting out the booze, and out of their clothing. One couple explores the vicinity away from the others. When they run into a mysterious chamber containing a frozen naked woman (our original penetrated personality) wrapped in plastic. They simply continue on their merry way, until they find a room containing a giant square tub of water, readily filled to the brim for willing participants. The couple returns to the others to drink and dance, while the cinematographer, gets as close to the ladies crotch’s and breast’s as possible, in a sequence of upbeat catchy Japanese music. Next, cut to one of the girls soaping her body outside the bathtub-oasis as she sings strangely “If You’re Happy and You Know It” (I guess she’s happy). She enters the tub, and before long, our mysterious plastic wrapped woman enters the room and joins her in the pool. The strange lady’s face is blank and pale, and before long, the two are diking it out in the water. A tadpole-like creature protrudes from one mouth to another, and we now have a new infected. Leaving the water, our new tainted temptress walks along a hall and enters another room, leaving a trail of breadcrumbs ala “Little Red Riding Hood”, but instead of a trail of breadcrumbs, a repulsive trail of parasitic vaginal bile. Impressed by the pile of toxic love juice, her significant other follows her into the room; excited at his enhanced chances of getting laid. After all she’s obviously horny, look at all that green goo!! Our horny hopeful gets his wish, but the Sexual Parasite makes him pay for it… with his life. Will the others succumb to this very fate?

While playing the piano she is sitting on a bench made to shit thru. Well, she starts shitting the maggot infested shit while playing some lovely music.

Review: Named after two adjacent apartments, this Korean tid bit is more subtle than a Jeffrey Daumer documentary. The tenants are quite different. 302 is a reclusive writer who is past bulimic, she pukes at the very thought of food. Soon-Hee is 301, a youngish divorcee who loves to cook for her loved ones. She feels 302 is rejecting her love, by failing to enjoy her intricate meals. To prove her love, 302 makes the ultimate sacrifice (in a Christlike manner) . Even in subtitles, this movie loses very little of the emotion it jams down your throat.

Review: Was APOCALYPSE NOW or THE DEER HUNTER a big hit in Thailand? Add some really bad English dubbing and lots of kung-fu movie sound effects and you've got this adventure-horror hybrid. It's a horrors-of-war exploitation film that takes the violence inherent in warfare to absurd extremes. Besides the usual bullet hits and sharp-spiked jungle booby traps you get limb chopping, decapitation, penis stabbing, eye gouging and a spike to the head followed by brain eating (hence the title). One hungry guy even eats the maggots off of a decomposing corpse! Blood flows and spurts to such ridiculous lengths that it's hard not to laugh at the cartoonish brutality on view here. The video box says: SO REALISTIC -- THIS FILM MAKES "PLATOON" LOOK LIKE A FAMILY OUTING! I can't argue with hype like that!

Review: Spanish cult-horror actor Paul Naschy stars in "HUMAN BEASTS" as a hit man who double crosses an Asian mob, is injured and lost in the wilderness only to be retrieved by a seemingly nice family living in the middle of nowhere. While he recovers at this strange new house (accompanied by 3 women who like to kiss and have sex with him in his vulnerable state), the woman of the Asian mob is hot on his trail vowing to get revenge on the man Paul Naschy's character killed. But the movie doesn't end there..oh no. There's a bizarre little twist near the climax that I won't spoil. See it for yourself. Very interesting (albeit odd) movie.

In the ensuing hullabaloo, Luther bites his lip and likes the taste of blood. Flash forward some thirty years and a parole board is meeting to discuss Luther's release.

A dopey parole board trainee sides with the liberals and so Luther is unleashed, except now he has a special pair of customised metal teeth. Luther then proceeds to "bite the heads off" of many hapless folk until the tense ending. This movie is most notable for it's bare dialogue, whole stretches pass without a sound. Most of the audio is composed of Luther clucking insanely like a chicken. The film is centred around a farm and the mother and daughter who live there. Other main characters include the daughter's dumb boyfriend and an inefficient local law officer.

Review: Barely released in the U.S. and ignored by all but the most fanatical arthouse deviants, this surreal French satire is steeped in pitch-black weirdness. And even when writer/director Claude Faraldo loses his (tenuous) intellectual footing and settles for pure gonzo silliness, this surrealistic vision of an Everyman's mental breakdown is worth a look, if only for its audacity. But the most inspired aspect of this Working Class Rant is the fact that nobody on-screen utters a single word of intelligible dialogue, with the entire story told in grunts, howls or simple gibberish. At first glance, the middle-aged Themroc (Michel Piccoli) seems like your typical, brutish, dirty-undershirted factory laborer. And his day goes straight into the crapper once he arrives at his dreary job, and is called onto the carpet after playing voyeur on a manager and his leggy secretary. With a lifestyle this demeaning and repetitious, it's no big surprise when Themroc suddenly goes bonkers, and for the first time in his miserable life, breaks free of his 9-to-5 shackles. The second he gets home, this disgruntled wacko wrecks his apartment (unlike modern-day Americans, who'd prefer to grab a gun and shoot their boss) and begins acting like a modern-day Neanderthal. To the dismay of his grey-haired hag of a mom, Themroc begins fondling his sister (sultry Beatrice Romand, best known for somnambulistic Eric Rohmer fare like CLAIRE'S KNEE) and transforms his dreary li'l flat into a literal urban cave (to match his new-found primitive desires) by knocking a huge, ragged hole in the side of his building, then tossing all his modern conveniences into the courtyard. Further chaos appears in the form of the local police, who are threatened by Themroc's anti-social activities (not to mention, the fact that Themroc's actions begin encouraging his uptight neighbors to do the same). But they're easily repelled by our urban savage, who holds the heavily-armed troops at bay (imagine if Ionesco had adapted DOG DAY AFTERNOON). Better still, what's the poor guy supposed to do for food during all this turmoil? How about bringing a policeman home for dinner? Literally. Right down to barbecuing him on a spit (and in one of the flick's best visual gags, the filmmakers use a pig carcass in place of the cooked cop). Don't get the false impression that this is continual, gale-force insanity though, because it's slow going at first, and Faraldo tackles his themes with all the subtlety of a drunk with a chainsaw. Of course, this type of sledgehammer storytelling is nothing new for Faraldo, whose earlier work included LA JEUNE MORTE in which a father and son are eaten by dogs, and BOF!, featuring a striking worker who plans to murder his wife and take up with his daughter-in-law. One thing's for sure: You certainly get the feeling that Faraldo, the cast and crew had a ball during the production. Especially the raw 'n' commanding Piccoli, who had a knack for embracing oddball projects throughout the '70s, including Marco Ferreri fare such as LA GRANDE BOUFFE and THE LAST WOMAN. Well, this flick takes the prize for being one of his most bizarre choices, with Piccoli going so far as to fund much of the movie out of his own pocket...It's obvious why nobody seems to make movies like this anymore. Because Faraldo is unsparing in his ridicule, while giving the finger to corporate scum, police, family, and lemming neighbors. After sitting through this non-verbal diatribe, you can imagine that if Faraldo hadn't gotten into filmmaking, he probably would have ended up as one of those aging crackpots who stand on street corners, screaming their conspiracy theories at the top of his lungs. (On the other hand, since we haven't heard much about the guy recently, he might be doing that at this very moment.) This crude 'n' rude social satire grabs Civilized Behavior by the balls and twists 'em off in the name of audacious laughs and puddle-deep polemics. Without question, it's best appreciated by every working class slob who ever wanted to chuck it all into the trash and revert back to simpler, Cro-Magnon pleasures of the flesh.
Review: In 1978 in Hong Kong, a grisly murder takes place. Eight years later, on a Macao beach, kids discover the severed hands of a fresh victim. A squadron of coarse, happy-go-lucky cops investigate, and suspicion falls on Wong Chi Hang, the new owner of Eight Immortals Restaurant, which serves delicious pork bao. The hands belong to the missing mother of the restaurant's former owner; he and his family have disappeared; staff at the restaurant continue to go missing; and, Wong can't produce a signed bill of sale: but there's no evidence. The police arrest Wong and try to torture him into a confession. Can they make him talk? And what was in those pork bao?
Review: The blood flows freely in this sequel to the first Untold Story, which now finds Anthony Wong Chau-Sang in a different role; in a film that is just as violent and frightening as the original. An unhappily married couple invite the wife's beautiful cousin, who has survived a horrifying experience in Mainland China, to live with them. She has her own special way of overcoming hardship and becomes the master of the barbecue.
Review: This one is based on an actual case. Although no body or evidence of a crime was found, 4 young men was pleaded guilty for murder. This is their story! I know the Untold series is famous for it's gore, so if that's what you want keep away from this one. Ok, a body is dismembered, but thats it! If you want a nicely written and directed (disturbing)crime story based on actual events, you should check this one out! The only problem is the strange humor, which seems out of place in a movie about a serious as this one.

Her only hope is the heroic Peter Weston, a devil hunter, who enters the jungle in true Indiana Jones style to try and rescue the young beauty. Starring Al Cliver, Ursula Buchfellner and Gisela Hahn.
Review: Vulgar Nazi war Eurosleaze from the evil Ivan Kathansky (director of SS Hell Camp) has something for everyone: giant gasoline explosions, fierce machine gun fights, vicious beatings, screaming nude women draped over sawhorses and scrubbed with soapy mops, a whip-wielding lesbian doctor who likes to be on the receiving end in her spare time, dead Jew floggings, hairy full frontal nudity, penises being torn off, a transvestite belly dancer, forced urine drinking, and Gordon Mitchell as a slimy homosexual SS officer!
Review: Howard Vernon is Dr. Josef Megele (yes, Hitler's Mengele) who has concocted a plan to make kidnapped women mate with Chimpanzees and develop a super race. (!?!?) If he's had any success they are never on screen. Even the monkey seems embarassed to be in this hysterically funny mess... Chris Mitchum breaks into Mengele's camp with a bunch of weapons specialists, super spies and circus tumblers, including a pretzel man who is injured and benched before showing off any stunts. Also with Fernando Rey, Jack Taylor & Robert Foster. A pathetically conceived giggle fest.
Review: --Of all the films in the Nazi sexploitation cycle of the 1970s (begun by the infamous ILSA, SHE WOLF OF THE S.S.), S.S. HELL CAMP (LA BESTIA IN CALORE) is often described as the most outrageous. It was among the films banned in the United Kingdom during the "video nasties" censorship craze, and subsequently became sought out by collectors and cult film enthusiasts alike. Macha Magall stars as the Ilsa-like Dr. Krast, a sadistic Nazi scientist who seeks to genetically engineer a perfect man. The result is a violent, sex-crazed beast, which she uses to torment and murder her victims while seeking information about the leaders of a resistance movement. As the rebels argue amongst themselves, Dr. Krast's experiments and tortures become more and more perverse, and her Neanderthal-like beast more and more savage.
Review: This movie had two things that most porn movies lack: a plot, and Nazis. Granted, the plot had holes, but then again, what movie plot doesn't? It should be noted that the Nazis speak English, which makes the 'plot' a lot easier to follow. They also live in the 1980s, and instead of taking over Europe, they're having sex. Also Stars Reggie Nalder from Mark of the Devil Fame.
Review: Police detective, Mitchell, investigating the death of a victim of a Nazi concentration camp discovers a nightclubbing playboy who has strange powers over women and is seemingly ageless.
Review: Campy softcore sexploitation about a bunch of dogfaces sneaking behind enemy lines to swipe a load of loot from a Nazi bordello. Directed by John Jailbait Babysitter Hayes, with an uncredited appearance by Uschi Digard, and worth the price of admission for the foot sex scene alone! And dig that hillbilly theme song!
Review: "Deported Women of the S.S. Special Section" is about the daily ins and outs of life in a Nazi women's prison. The women get to the camp and are given the usual medical tests to make sure they're healthy enough for torture. There is a long shaving sequence in which pubic hair goes under the razor. That was hilarious. It was all for health reasons of course. The commander of the camp becomes infatuated with one of the prisoners. He wants her to love him. He goes through various romantic wooing ideas, (humiliation, solitary confinement), until she decides to leave a present in her vagina for him in the climax.
Review: Elsa is the sadistic overseer of a Third Reich pleasure train on route to the front lines. Loaded with young women, the crew is set to serve Hitler's combat officers.

Review: Erwin C. Deitrich sexploitationer about young women recruited by the Gestapo for "special assignment." Mmm yeah. We know what that means. Light on violence but more than makes up for it with plenty of footage of naked Teuton babes running through battlefields while mortar rounds explode around them. Think Hogan’s Heroes goes nudist.
Review: Lise Cohen is taken to a special prisoner-of-war camp for female Jews, a camp run as a bordello to entertain the German officers and troops going in to battle. The camp is run with an iron fist by Commandant Starker and his minion Alma. Starker becomes frustrated when Lise demonstrates no fear, and devises cruel experiments to scare her, to no avail. Once she realizes her guilt is unfounded, Lise begins to play Starker's game, but even though she begins living a better life, she doesn't forget the atrocities she has seen and experienced.
Review: The beautiful, black booted, leather wearing and sexually sadistic Helga rules iron-handed over her prison camp for women. Loaded with plenty of naked babes, whippings and torture sequences. This rarely seen film is Eurociné's answer to Jess Franco's 'Ilsa The Wicked Warden'. One of the better WIP (Women In Prison) films starring Malisa Longo, Patrizia Gori, Claude Joanna and Dominique Aveline.
Review: A secret group of Jewish activists locate and murder the doctors and soldiers who tortured their relations in a notorious extermination camp. They hypnotize a mysterious girl into killing the Commandant's son (a wealthy playboy) to lure his father out of hiding. Once captured, the old man is tickled to death by a goat licking his feet!!! Other highlights include a couple being power drilled to death in their sleep, a woman stripped, tied spread eagled to trees and strangled, flashbacks of Jews being gunned down in the camps while little kids sing, a kinky cabaret scene lifted straight out of The Night Porter, and more! Amazing! Stars William Berger and Gordon Mitchell
Review: Finding a new employer, and looking not a day older since the end of World War II, Ilsa works for an Arab sheik who enjoys importing females to use as sex slaves. An American millionaire's daughter, a movie star, and an attractive equestrian are among his latest victims.
Review: In case you had any lingering doubts about the decline of Western Civilization, here's an all-singing, all-dancing, musical comedy stage play based on the Ilsa movies!!! Probably the greatest concept since Springtime for Hitler and the chick who plays Ilsa has a dynamite pair of legs that even Tina Turner herself would envy!
Review: Ilsa is an evil Nazi warden at a death camp that conducts "medical experiments". Ilsa's goal is to prove that woman can withstand more pain and suffering than men and therefore should be allowed to fight on the front lines.

Review: Massive orgies, swagger stick sucking, jack boot humping, and SS officers riding women like horsies are just a few of the delights to be found in this one!
Review: Also known as The Bikers and the Disco Kid, this 1981 Euro trash classic is an extreme example of the moronic films that were being churned out all over the world in the early 80's. This one has it all, violent death, castration, motorcycle chases, penis eating and oh, so much more. The story concerns a deadly rift between some kung fu guys and some biker guys. Hal Martin is out for revenge after a hoodlum biker gang brutally rapes his girlfriend. He asks for the help of his Kung Fufighting friends, who attack the bikers and castrate their head honcho. The bikers retaliate by showing up at the Kung Fu school armed with machine guns. From there, it’s an all out war!
Review: Obscure Nazi/women-in-prison film about a female Russian spy who seeks out to gather information about Spilberg; a Nazi brothel/prison. She is soon discovered and is imprisoned and tortured. It is in this film that we are introduced to the character of Helga-The She Wolf of Spilberg. This one has good amounts of sadism, nudity, and softcore sleaze so it will make a perfect addition to that Nazi collection!
Review: A German couple of Jewish ancestry is engaged, when WW2 breaks up, and he is sent to the battle front as an officer, and she is arrested and sent to serve as a prostitute in a war camp.

Will they escape, and survive the war, as well as their interior drama?
Review: The dark and melancholy story of a former teenage Nazi concentration camp inmate, Lucia, and the S.S. officer who was her torturer/lover, Max , who accidentally meet again in a Vienna hotel in 1957 where Max works as the night porter. They resume their sadomasochistic relationship, although Max's former S.S. comrades have something different in mind for them. The story unfolds like a gruesome dance of death.
Review: A shipwrecked World War II sailor comes to the rescue of two American nurses held in the clutches of a twisted Nazi officer and his three female assistants on a deserted South Pacific island
Review: The plot is a little confusing, but the emphasis is given on the directing, the acting and the shocking sex scenes. A nazi officer has to bring the 12 most influent german personalities into a "castle" for the week-end. 12 girls are already there, sexually trained to "entertain" the men. What follows is an orgy where sex and violence are king and queen, and a general atmosphere of spreaded madness. The scenes are powerful, the actresses are perfect, and I can't help but raise a couple of cut thumbs up to Fabio...
Review: Paris under occupation. In a little quiet parisian house, nazis officers having sex with french girls... Nice little story with a 70's feeling. Shoot in 1978 this porn movie is one of the first Brigitte lahaie films. She's still a brunette, becoming blonde later in this business. Nothing much to say except that is a very rare film to find these days and a great collector for Brigitte Lahaie's fans. The atmosphere is quite nice but a little more decadence await during the whole movie. That is not what i called Nazisploitation but nice porn movie with SS. Still the "already" great Lahaie and very nice looking girls touching herself through the movie. I kinda like that! The soundtrack is also a great one! Just see it, if you can find a copy!
Review: During the last days of WW2, several female prisoners arrive at Camp 5 to work as sex slaves for officers and guinea pigs for horrific experiments by Nazi doctors who are trying to find a cure for burns.

Review: Another of the more obscure films in the genre, this one is about SS officers who once again set up a brothel to weed out traitors. Again, this one has some kinky situations and other weirdness that is notable of the genre.

Review: COOL Brazilian trash/exploitation film about a sect of Nazis living in Brazil who like to kidnap and beat local crime rings so to intimidate them into following their reign of terror. People are beaten, put before fireing squds, and even some minor experiments are conducted. Like a lot of these Brazilian films this one also sorta loses the viewer a bit amongst the confusion but is still fun.

Ivano Staccioli and Ria De Simone star.
Review: Italian beauty Barbara Bouchet took a break in the from the Italian thrillers and comedies of the mid 70s to star in this excellent drama.

When the local Gendarmes come looking for the deserters they find their search hampered by half naked nymphomaniac nuns demanding to be porked.

Review: Spanish super star Carmen Maura plays a nun who agrees to a selfless scam, a fake stigmata, only to avoid separation from her lover, another nun. 'Extramuros' is edgy all right: a plot or scheme agreed upon between two lovers to escape their plight, but with a twist. The scheme is similar to some we've recently seen power couples of politicians, religious leader and the like, play out on the world in the last decade. But the twist this film throws in - literal and actual self-flagellation is original. It's a serious and passionate work, highlighting the theme of outspoken women-against-repression, seen in other good gay and lesbian films. This is not a lesbian "Nun sense" or another "Dark Habits" (by Almodovar, which also starred Carmen Maura, and also set in a Spanish convent, with some lesbian nuns). Perhaps, best of all, 'Extramuros' is realistic and frank. It isn't shy about its characters' sexuality. Their sexuality, and the film as a whole are genuine.

Review: Anita Ekberg and Joe Dallesandro star in this cult horror film about a demented nun sliding through morphine addiction into madness, whilst presiding over a regime of lesbianism, torture and death.

Review: An English soldier (Cliver) returns home from the Zulu war with the daughter of a tribal king (Gemser) as his slave (a gift that he was given for "saving" the kings life). The spoils of war, ya know? While he's been gone, his wife has been having an affair with the female housekeeper (Belle). Not at all pleased with being a slave, the Ebony princess notices the mistress of the house engaging in a quick bit of foreplay with the housekeeper and plots her revenge starting with the seduction of the mistress. Jealousy spreads like wildfire and before you know it, she has turned the household into a lustful frenzy of sex and hatred. I can't give away too much more or it would ruin the story, but there are plenty of little twists along the way. Speaking of twists, this film is actually far more twisted than it sounds. One of the more disturbing moments being a sequence about the filming of an inquisition-themed porno that turns into the sadistic rape of a lesbian / virgin by the filthy and none too bright gardener. Sporting tons of full-frontal nudity, simulated lesbian and straight sex and some hard-core (as seen in an old stag film), this has the sleazy goods to go along with the D.H. Lawrence-ish setting and atmosphere, and is definitely recommended for fans of such.
Review: Who else could play the title character of La Bella Antonia but La Bella Edwige? As a virtues (at first ) medieval maiden (not for long) bound to a marriage of inconvenience. she has to have a picture painted to sweeten the deal. Enter Giovanni Piccolomini (Riccardo Garrone), wearing a scene stealing red cap indicating his artistic nature. Giovanni's brush is irresistible to every woman he meets, including (within the first ten minutes of the film), a serving wench at the local tavern and both of Antonia's ladies in waiting. Being one of those period sex romps from Fenech' early years, she still had to share on-screen nudity with up to six other women per film. Later her status as Italy's queen of Sexploitation grew strong enough for her to demand alone-right on nakedness While Antonia remains adamant of saving herself for her clumsy blond Vulco (who looks and acts like Prince Valium from Spaceballs), Giovanni presents his favorite conquests with the latest fashion from Rome: a pair of big yellow bloomers. Hence the catchy theme song (La Mutanda) at the start. Owing to a rather under explained misunderstanding, Antonia commits herself to a convent because she is denied the love of Vulco, while it is actually him she is betrothed to all along. Luckily Giovanni decides to help the pair get together, although how he finds the time to do so while pleasing all the other women in town remains a mystery. The action (and I mean this literally) switches to the local convent, where all sorts of nocturnal activities are going on during nightly prayers. Of course at the time this film was shot, free love was all the rage, but the unrivaled promiscuity shown here borders on the ridiculous. For instance, over in another subplot, hapless servant Ariosto is forced to pimp out the female staff to Antonia's lusty old dad. But mom (who does not look old enough to have carried Edwige in the first place) is on to him. Meanwhile again, Giovanni is painting an alfresco for Vulco's mother, who really does not look old enough to - well, you get the picture. Eventually, all's well that ends well with one of those Asterix final page banquets, except that once Antonia is married, she starts to take after her father...

Review: Disturbing but accurate Italian Chronicle of the XVII century. It depicts the real story of the Spanish nun Virginia de Leyva, a noble forced to take the religious votes in the Italian convent of Monza, where she becomes mother superior, and of her violent affair with an Italian "Signorotto", after which she gives birth to a girl. He gets killed, she ends up buried alive for more than ten years in a tiny cell. Cruel inner plots, corruption, sex hidden behind the walls between nuns and priests, hysteria and general hypocrisy, not to mention tortures and psychological violence, all make up to a disturbing but effective kind-of prequel to Ken Russell's "The Devils". The story of Virginia de Leyva also inspired a famous chapter of the Italian historical novel "I promessi sposi" by Alessandro Manzoni.
Review: The Nun is a flashy nun horror film with a twist ending and staunchly Catholic backdrop. In fact, the film drops several subtle hints about the outcome that only a well-read Catholic would pick up. The movie also features several bizarre nunsploitation twists including a wayward priest and a wayward-leaning seminarian. Anita Briem plays Eva, a high school graduate who comes home on prom night only to see her mother being murdered by a ghostly nun -- the spectre of Sister Ursula (Cristina Piaget). One by one, Mary's friends suffer bizarre deaths as though Sister Ursula is hunting them down. Eva runs into Gabrielle, a seminarian who helps her find the boarding school her mom attended -- the site of Sister Ursula's death. It is here that Eva discovers a terrible secret that her mother has been hiding, the identity of Eva's real father. The movie features extraordinary flashy special effects. Sister Ursula, having died in the water, manifests herself as a watery spirit. She uses water in all of the killings.

Review: A priest investagates paranormal activity at a nuns' convent where a deep, dark secret is about to resurface in the guise of murder! Could the devil be behind this, or is that just what Mother Superior wants everyone to believe?
Review: Sacred Flesh is an usual bit of “nunsploitation” in that it spends almost as much time ruminating on the perils of repressed sexuality as it does lingering on the flesh of nubile young women.The plot of this British film centers on the Mother Superior of a convent, who has apparently gone mad, seeing visions and locking herself away in the abbey. The Mother, well-played by Sally Tremaine, is trapped in a mental battle between lust, as represented by the critical Mary Magdalene (Kristina Bill, The Affair of the Necklace), and her vows to Christ, as represented by an even more critical skeletal nun (Rachel Taggart, Spider) and her leering green companion (Eileen Daly, the face of the Redemption video line).As the Mother struggles to maintain her chastity, she is tempted by Magdalene, who throws the confessions of her young nuns at her as examples of how repression leads to sin — and how much sin turns her on, if only she’ll let it.The confession scenes are where the film’s ample nudity come into play, as the perversions grow in form and number. What starts with simple masturbation escalates through lesbianism, two priests seducing a young nun, and climaxing — pun intended — with three nuns kidnapping and faux-crucifiying a rival. Though this “Nuns Gone Wild” element requires little other than good looks and heaving bosoms from the younger women, the other roles require more skill — after all, they have lines. Tremaine and Bill acquit themselves well in the back-and-forth debate interspersed with the back-and-forth lesbian action, and Simon Hill and Moyna Cope, as two senior church officials discussing the Mother Superior’s problems, are also capable. There are some weak actors among the supporting players, but that’s a minor and typical quibble.

Review: The story of Joe [Dallesandro] and his lover-protector, Holly [Woodlawn], who is something to behold, a comic book Mother Courage who fancies herself as Marlene Dietrich but sounds more like Phil Silvers.

Review: Monzo Kobayashi is a dime-novel writer. He goes to see the stage of Ranko Mizuki, a star of an all-girls'-operetta company known as Asakusa Revue. Monzo notices a creepy man sitting beside him who keeps his head slumped down and does not even look up when Ranko appears on stage.

Review: The sexually frigid, man-hating Rita runs a nightclub/brothel where she and her lesbian slaves sexually torture and abuse the politicians, spies and millionaires who enter her brothel trap. After sex, some of the men are gassed and put into cages where they must deal with Rita’s personal attentions: brutal acid, electrocution and the crush of steel spikes. A new girl comes to the brothel to work for Rita. Unknown to Rita, the girl is an undercover agent working for Interpol. A great-looking, colorful film from director Jess Franco.
Review: This sexy softcore comedy is a must for Lina Romay fans as she spends most of it in the "altogether"! (That's nekkid, pal!) Ms. Romay plays a prostitute who is forced to go on the run after her brothel is busted! She ends up posing as a maid for a stuffy rich family. Her unrestrained sexuality has them all going nuts! Howard Vernon is great as the bedridden and perverted but lovable old Grandfather. Also with Olivier Mathot, Pamela Stanford and Nadine Pascal. Picture is soft looking but watchable.
Review: Get the fire hose ready, you'll need to cool yourself down after (or maybe during) your viewing of this compilation of hot scenes from Hong Kong's most adult titles. This is a documentary featuring traditional Chinese sexual positions and techniques, as demonstrated by the attractive couples from several of Hong Kong's most erotic films. Very informative, and easy on the eyes!

One of his customers makes an elaborate chicken costume for a voodoo-like scene with a doll resembling his plump neighbor. She, in turn, has a doll that resembles him, which she whips and dominates in an abandoned church. The TV news reader has her own fantasy involving carp. Her husband, who is indifferent to her, steals materials to fashion elaborate artifacts that he rubs, scrapes and rolls across his body.
Review: Brace yourselves, folks, this one's a jaw-dropper! Frozen-fazed automatons and a goofy-looking monster (with a blinking light in the center of his forhead) abducted a collection of sexual specimens - hippies, lesbians, stripper Gloria Prat - who are whisked off to the estate of crasy Dr. Humpp (Aldo Barbero). There, with the aid of aphrodisiacs, "electronic control of the libido, "and a talking, pulsating, disembodied brain, in a jar (who's always in a bad mood), Dr. H turns his guests into "veritable screwing machines." He then drains "the blood forces of sex" from the copulating couples which he uses as an elixir to keep himself eternally young. Investigatin the kidnappings, journalist Richard Bauleo quickly finds himself part of the story when he's partnered with Miss Prat on Humpp's telepathic sex machine. As the good doc points out, "Sex dominates the world and now I dominate sex!"

At first she resists the student's advances, but eventually begins an affair with him. Their situation is condemned by her family and his father, who is the woman's psychologist.
Review: DIRTY is the reincarnation of two girls, a bottle and one bed. Their bodies, hands and face expressions reach out in a refilm look. "DIRTY was originally shot in 1965. The footage was found in a very bad state and 'restored' with all marks, breaks, dirt, etc. deliberately left in place. But this is not the only thing that makes this a 'dirty' film; we see two almost naked women in a bed, first drinking from a bottle, then playing with it and ultimately engaging in erotic play. The dirt marks, the grainy texture of the image and the breakdown of the continuity of the action give the whole film the quality of a highly charged erotic memory. It creates the effect of a dreamlike recalling of a scene with the dreamer's freedom to re-run or pause on particular gestures and freeze certain privileged moments such as the caress of a hand, the bounce of a breast, a look, etc. The film becomes an erotic daydream, a play with sensual images retained from a scene witnessed sometime in the past." -
Review: Sally runs a mobile "pirate" radio station--which she operates from hervan--where, in her sexy and sultry voice, she encourages her listeners(mostly teenagers) to use the music she plays "to ball by". She also takescalls from her listeners and even offers herself as a prize in a contest. Hershow is so popular it winds up "turning on" large numbers of the localpopulation. The authorities, of course, can't allow that to happen, so theysend out the cops to find her and shut her down.
Review: Unlike other early adult movies such as DEEP THROAT and BEHIND THE GREEN DOOR, this fine combination of explicit sex and shoot 'em up thrills gets little respect even from genre fans. This is largely due to the brutal nature of the film's numerous rape sequences, commendably NOT of the 'they may protest at first' variety. The story's well detailed in the other comment you'll find here, so I won't go into that. Most of the performers here made just the one film (save for Levi Richards who made tons) and even beautiful blonde Barbara Bourbon, who turns in some effective acting as well as the proud, resilient farmer's wife fighting to protect her daughters from 'a fate worse than death', only made a handful of X-rated appearances, most memorably of course in Radley Metzger's timeless PRIVATE AFTERNOONS OF PAMELA MANN. Director "David Fleetwood" is actually sixties shlock producer Joe Robertson (THE CRAWLING HAND, THE SLIME PEOPLE, THE AGENT FOR H.A.R.M.), so the flick's inconspicuous professionalism in just about every aspect of production as well as narrative drive should come as no surprise. He went on to carve a niche for himself as 'female' (for the face value crowd) porn director "Adele Robbins" with movies like SWEET ALICE and INNOCENT SEDUCTION. You may think that this early rape 'n' revenge movie stands diametrically opposed to his later couples friendly numbers. Anyone taking the effort to sit down and watch the film in its entirety will come to realize however that the female characters (Bourbon's in particular) are well drawn, not whining victims at all, perfectly capable of righting the wrongs inflicted upon them. So give this classic its due and allow it to take its rightful place in the pantheon alongside its more renowned genre brethren.

Review: Innocent young Eugenie (Marie Liljedahl, luscious star of "Inga") is taken to an island paradise where she is initiated into a world of pleasure and pain controlled by the sinister Dolmance ("Lord of the Rings'" Christopher Lee). But when she surrenders to her own forbidden fantasies, Eugenie becomes trapped in a frenzy of drugs, sadomasochism, and murder. Can a frightened girl in the grip of carnal perversion find sanctuary in the orgies of the depraved? Jess Franco, the infamous director of "Vampyros Lesbos" and "Venus in Furs," brings you this legendary erotic classic, based on the Marquis De Sade's notorious "Philosophy in the Boudoir" and co-starring Jack Taylor (Succubus) and Maria Rohm. Presented completely uncut, this rarely seen shocker remains one of the most controversial explorations of extreme sexuality in European cinema history!
Review: think both these reviewers are exaggerating. I liked it, but not more than a lesser Richard Kern work. And the ending almost wastes it. And the ideas of naming it "Georges Bataille's Story of the Eye" (when it has NOTHING to do with the french guy oeuvre) it's bound to beget some disappointment for G.B. 's fanbase. Also, a lot of reviews talk about "shock value" (in John Waters terms ), but I found nothing shocking about it - it's a relaxing quiet movie. It's not porn, but if you're annoyed by the sight of genitalia doing things together stay away from this. - Review by Trep
Review: A program of short pornographic films, most from the 1920s, but one from around 1905, made to be shown in the waiting rooms of higher-class French brothels. Being a fan of silent film and porn, I was really interested to go see this when it screened tonight (to a shockingly large crowd) at the Seattle International Film Festival. Going in, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect--definitely some nudity, probably some posing in long strings of pearls and funny hats, some dancing around, maybe a bit of simulated sex. But no, this was full-on hardcore pornography, with close-ups and money shots and everything. I wouldn't say it was all overly arousing. But it was fascinating, and somewhat informative. The women were mostly good-looking, but not in that sleek modern way. They had bulges where modern porn stars don't, they had hair growing in places and in amounts that wouldn't be fashionable today. (Although I have to say I'm getting a bit weary of the modern no-hair look.) But what was cool about most of these films was that the people involved seemed to be having such a good time. There was a weird sort of innocent charm about the films. They didn't feel dirty so much, even though there was lots of perverse goings on--lots of nuns, a bit of bestiality (involving nuns), prostitution, some peeing, etcetera. But there was nothing cynical or ironical about them, and I appreciated that. It was all in good fun. It was almost like watching some of the really early Chaplin films, except with penetration.I was highly surprised at, and happy about, the amount of lesbianism. Almost every one of these films contained some lesbianism, often involving lesbian nuns. I was surprised because I sorta thought lesbianism was more of a modern fixation. But I guess some things are timeless. There was also a brief, small snippet of male oral homosexuality (and the one dude looked really uncomfortable and unhappy about it, and he practically leaped up and back over to the woman when the gay part of his scene was over). The highlight of the program, the one that got the crowd screaming and clapping, was a sick and twisted and hilarious animated film about a little man with a giant detachable penis running around and sticking it into things, cows, donkeys, etcetera, and sword-fighting. It was way better than the Disney stuff from the 20s.
Review: Gwendoline arrives in China in a box, and is helped out of her immediate predicament by a female contact and a devil-may-care adventurer. She's on a mission to find her father, who was last seen searching for a rare butterfly in the Land of the Yik Yak. They confront the evil Cheops in an attempt to find Gwen's lost father and the butterfly, and face many other challenges to their mission.
Review: Some, they tore to pieces with a sword... Some, they decapitated with the sharp blade of a bulldozer... others, they burned to death with an aerosol torch... or they brutally crucified them... the lucky ones simply go their brains blown out. Christopher and Celia arrive on the island of Myconos for a quite winter vacation. They seem such a nice handsome couple, and they are so in love. Everyone likes them. But we are soon to discover that they are a couple of sick and perverted people, especially Christopher who thinks that God has given him the divine right to punish perversion and so he should deliver the innocent local people purified from the evil brought to the island by the foreign tourist who flock to Myconos throughout the year. No one escaped!!
Review: Unlike the typical Hong Kong Category III fare, this movie is actually very light in the nudity department. It is actually a pretty entertaining movie in its own right, depicting how a young and innocent concubine becomes one of the most powerful and deadly woman in Chinese history.
Review: A slave owner in the 1840s trains his slaves to be bare-knuckle fighting champions, unaware that his daughter is having an affair with his top fighter.
Review: Scream queens Michelle Bauer and Linnea Quigley star in this sexy mystery from cult filmmaker Jess Franco. When several local people turn up missing, Sheriff Marga (Bauer) investigates. Soon she finds herself thrust into the lurid world surrounding the mysterious nightclub owner Tarantula (Lina Romay).
Review: The scene is a pre-French Revolution Bastille, where various political prisoners are being held: a woman who was raped and impregnated by the king, a police chief who was accused of selling bad pork, and the Marquis, who was unjustly accused of working for the overthrow of the king. The Marquis is only interested in writing his deviant stories, while his penis yearns for a little action (they argue about this frequently), the prime candidate being the jailer who likes to be buggered. The corrupt priest arranges to have the pregnant woman raped by the Marquis so they can claim the king had nothing to do with it. The priest also steals the Marquis' manuscripts and publishes them for his own profit. Things come to a head as the people rise up against the tyranny
Review: It all begins with Lina Romay dancing in chromed pants on a stage in some cheap bar. She hooks two playboys and ends up with an invitation to their midnight orgy. Her communist rock star bearded lover shows up in her dressing room and starts shouting slogans. Her husband pays her a visit. And then she talks directly to the camera, explaining to the viewer she has to get dressed for the party.
Review: A day in the lives of a hit-and-run driver and her victim, and the bizarre things that happen to them before and after they collide (sexual assault by a crazed foot-fetishist, visions of the Virgin Mary, strange chicken-foot grafting operations).
Review: When Francine (Bouchet), a prostitute, is knocked off, the main suspect, a guy named Gavalles, is sought by the police. He was one of the regular clients of the whorehouse where Francine worked, but he seeks refuge from the law, as he claims he didn't commit the crime. However, during a chase, he is decapited as his motor-bike collides into the back of a tractor-trailer. The police think that's the end of the murderer, but soon another prostitute is killed. Inspector Fontaine is put on the case, and as he begins probing around, he finds several suspicious individuals who knew the deceased women. One of these suspects is a journalist; another is a famous doctor named Waldemar; another is a criminal magistrate who was intent on convicting Gavalles for the first murder. And finally, there is Madame Colette (Anita Ekberg), the proprietor of aforesaid whorehouse. Now comes the task of figuring out the identity of the killer. And as Fontaine gets deeper into the case, the killer strikes again and again. Here's a modest giallo outing, obviously made to "cash in" on the then prolific market of horror thrillers. The general mood is seedy and low-key, and the cheap sets decorated with phony Rennaisance art are a lame attempt at adding sophistication to a hastily made film. Howard Vernon here steals the show as Waldemar, who investigates the eyeballs taken from Gavalles' corpse, mashing them to a pulp with his scalpel, as if he were to looking for peals. Nevertheless, it's good fun. Professional Humphrey Bogart look-alike Robert Sacchi plays the detective. He gives a decent performance, but doesn't live up to his mentor's standards. Actually, the film gives him very little opportunity to act, as the number of characters and constant plot twists keep him at a deadpan level. We never even get a close shot of his face. The murders are violent, but there is little bloodshed. The sound effects are rather odd; when one of the girls is murdered, it sounds as if someone is clashing cymbals. The main show here comes at the end, when we think the killer's identity has at last been discovered. However, we're in for a few surprises; and that's what makes this film worth watching, apart from seeing Barbara Bouchet and Anita Ekberg. Director Merighi was none too prolific, and he remains a minor figure in the pantheon of Italian cult cinema. He made his debut in 1957 with the melodramatic crime film "The Sun Will Return" (Il Sole Tornera'), which starred future director Roberto Mauri. He is also known for directing the 1972 spaghetti western, "They Called Him Trinity."
Review: After viewing her violent tendencies toward men, hitwoman Sister Cindy recruits Kitty and begins training her in the ways of a professional killer.

Will she be able to resolve her professional life with her private one? [color=red]Precurser to the Raped by an Angel series[/color]
Review: Here is a GROOVY Category III (Softcore X) Hong Kong flick from 2000! A wimpy nerd is always being kicked around. You see, he’s a total pervert! He sits around jerking off to porn on his computer, peeps on his neighbors and walks around town snapping photos of unsuspecting girls! His grandfather is a herbalist/healer and teaches him the way of healing. The old man kicks the bucket and this weirdo inherits the business. Now he uses his new stash of herbs to create a strong aphrodisiac that puts its users into such a heightened sexual state that they will not only forget their encounter but will also be in need of an antidote. So he uses it! And USES IT! He nails some HOT Chinese babes and soon lands a new job! But he’s a fucking psycho so things go badly wrong!! LOTS of trash, sleaze and hot Chinese babes getting all hot, sweaty and DIRTY in this flick so you know this baby is worth a watch!
Review: A highlight of Category III sleaze last year was most certainly the darkly nasty NAKED POISON. This is a sequel in name only, but does star the most talented girls from the previous picture, once again taking off all of their clothes and rubbing up and down on everything that moves. The plot concerns Sophia Ngan losing her memory each morning ever since her lover's murder, and tattooing clues on her body to what she discovers each day, sort of a porno MEMENTO. What she does discover concerning the murder is less important that setting up one scene after another that has no other purpose than to get everyone naked for a while. Shot on video. It's a terrible movie, but fans of Sophia Ngan will probably not want to miss it.
Review: A new brat-faced Olga recruits suburban housewives as "hostesses" for a dance hall which is really just a front for-are you ready?-a satanic cult.
Review: An unspeakable nightmare of eroticism! After having been run out of New York City's Chinatown, brothel owner Madame Olga moves her ring of prostitutes and criminals to a deserted ore mine and starts over. This is the 3rd movie in the infamous Olga series starring Audrey Campbell and it's a classic sickie! The pseudo mondo narration and the Wagner-like music gives the film an unique edge.
Review: Fascinating Audry Campbell leads the way in first Olga-flick. We're in the opium infested Chinatown where Olga's crime syndicate turns innocent girls into hookers and/or junkies. Hey, she's just trying to make a buck! Unique early S&M sleaze epic with racist voice-over instead of dialogue and annoyin' "chinese" music that get played over and over. Take the pain with the pleasure.
Review: Daniel Wu stars in this noirish suspense thriller as Calvin, a private investigator hired to record a prominent politician's sex life. But he gets more than he bargained for when the politician, Kwai Fung Ming, turns out to be an incredibly beautiful young woman to whom he's immediately attracted. Soon, he's engaged in a passionate affair with Kwai and agrees to become a double agent to help Kwai shake down the man who wanted the goods on her
Review: This is the story of the beautiful young Pervirella, played by Emily Bouffante. Set in the mythical English land of Condon, the grotesque, power-mad Queen Victoria builds a wall around the country and establishes a "Monarchy of Terror." Intellectuals and "pervs" are prosecuted and killed, or driven underground to form the "Cult of Perv." Their leader, the Demon Nanny gives birth to a possible savior, then dies. The infant Pervirella grows to maturity with supernatural speed and shows amazing abilities, including raging nymphomania whenever her magical necklace is removed. Pervirella is sought by various rebels, agents of Victoria, the Cult of Perv, and a trio of witches. Eventually she teams up with Amicus Reilly, a James Bond spoof played to stiff, campy perfection by the late David Warbeck. Wild adventures ensue!
Review: [b][color=green]Tagline: She brought a new meaning to the phrase, "driving a hard bargain"! [/b][/color] Moonbeam is a gorgeous nineteen year old woman, but her time is spent with her prize swine, as opposed to young men. This worries her mother, as she wants her daughter to find a man soon and of course, take the vows of marriage. The prospects seem bleak however, as she does play around with a local boy, buy he has eyes for someone else and as such, Moonbeam has minimal potential there. A plan has been put into motion however, when a traveling salesman ventures into the area and tries to con the corn-pones. Can Moonbeam's parents figure out a way to make this salesman marry Moonbeam and even if so, is this what she really wants, needs, or should even consider? In Sassy Sue, we overlook life on the Willard family farm estate, where romance problems have also taken root. Pa makes moonshine and wants to make it big as an outhouse seat designer, but he is concerned about his son, Junior. It seems Junior is more interested in the farm animals than the young ladies, which is not a pleasant prospect. Pa tries to set Junior up with some lovelies, but is Junior's heart already taken and if so, by what?
Review: This was made in Joe D'Amato's medium-budget sortporn period. The story about the relationship between a widower and his stepdaughter seems to be original but many elements of this film have clearly been borrowed from Brass' The Key and there are also signs that D'Amato must have seen Once Upon a Time in America. It is one of the rare cases where D'Amato really put some effort into trying to make a good film (mostly he's a very lackluster director). As a result, Il Piacere is one of his best films, despite a rather anemic lead actress (Miss Guzon) and an infuriatingly annoying musical score that must have been written by someone with just a couple of hours of piano lessons.
Review: 1917, the last months of legal prostitution in Storyville - New Orleans' red-light district. Hattie, a prostitute at the elegant home of Madame Nell, and her 12-year-old daughter Violet are the only ones awake with photographer Ernest J. Bellocq comes by with his camera. He takes pictures of Hattie and he fascinates Violet. Over the next few months, Nell arranges for the auction of Violet's virginity, Hattie marries and goes to St. Louis leaving Violet behind, and Violet determines to marry Bellocq. Is this idyllic or is she just a girl wearing rouge, soon to return to childhood?
Review: "Revenge of the Virgins" is a 1961 black and white B-western which concerns a tribe of beautiful topless Indians in the old west. The men of their tribe have been wiped out by the pale face. These women spend the bulk of the movie doing battle with a group of prospectors who are up to no good. Naked archery abounds.
Review: Cheung, A 23-year-old unmarried travelling scholar, stops over at a monastery, where he sights a beautiful woman. Against the rules, Monk Faben allows Cheung to stay and woo the girl, Ann-Ann. She is shy, and also is the Prime Minister's daughter, so the wooing is arranged by Ann-Ann's maid Hung
Review: Anna Battista is a young, popular, 24-year-old Italian-born International film actress who engages herself on a hectic and self-destructive spree which takes her across Europe and to America to shed her "boy-toy" image to become an "artist" in order to write and direct herself in a semi-biography movie of herself titled "Scarlet Diva." After working in Rome, and winning a presigious film award in Milan, Anna travels to Paris to save her best friend from an abusive relationship, then avoids sleazy film producers in Los Angeles, meets and falls in love with a rock star who abandons her, finds out later that she's pregnant, and begins using drugs to numb her pain at this predictament she's gotten herself into.
Review: This loose adaptation of Shakespeare's work is another costumer from exploitation magnate Harry Novak. Juliet is far from a blushing virgin, and wants to get together with that hot stud Romeo, but their parents are feuding. Everyone has sex with everyone. Novak's formula includes naked redheads and a Laugh-in approach, with lines like "beautiful downtown Verona", "sock it to me", and "here come da prince". The film was a pure delight in the drive-ins when it was released, and is still seeing distribution to this day
Review: Another seedy HK exploitation film about cops on the trails of gangsters who are operating a prostitution racket in which they kidnap and then drug women, forcing them into prostitution! Lots of cute NUDE Asian chicks and hot softcore sex make this one fun!
Review: This is the infamous Hong Kong erotic film starring Amy Yip about an ancient collection of short erotic tales. In one tale, two HOT lesbians actually make a flute disappear between themselves (It’s a HOT scene!) and in another, a guy has a horse’s penis implanted on to his own!
Review: Great 1996 sequel to the infamous "Sex and Zen" from Wong Jing! A perverse land baron sets out to bed more women than any other man in history, yet is fearful of his daughter! He locks her up with a vicious chastity device that will slice a guys penis off if he tries anything! Of course this does not curb his daughter's lusts. While studying, she encounters the evil "Mirage Lady", who drains her lovers' life force during sex. This beautiful demon then learns the secret of virginity, which allows her to change from male or female, thus seducing both to their deaths. It's now up to "Ironman' to stop her. there's lots of soft sex in this, both straight and lesbian, along with an outrageous story.
Review: If you liked the first one, you’ll also enjoy this third part in the sleazy series. Women masturbate, are tied up and beaten (including having pins driven deep into their fingertips and frogs placed inside their private parts) so to force them into becoming prostitutes, a gang of perverts actually attempt to sodomize two young men(!!), and lots of nudity and sexual situations. What more could you ask for?
Review: Trouble is brewing in the Imperial Court, with the young heir to the throne caught in the middle of a power struggle between his dominant mother and the ambitious chief eunuch.

The love-struck Prince cannot forget his true love and searches the brothels throughout the land to find her, with outrageous and often mind blowing consequences
Review: A poor girl, a rich stud, a university student and a model -- nothing in common, except the desire to experience true intimacy. Their stories unfold and overlap as each becomes victim to their own sexual dependencies, self-perceptions and illusions. Thematically structured around issues of femininity, masculinity, virginity, rape and sexuality, each teen struggles to make sense of their own identity, reaching for ideals that represent everything they feel they are supposed to be, but are not.
Review: The versatile, beautiful Li Ching, star of the award-winning The Mermaid is director/writer Lu Chi’s damsel in distress when she found her sister Chen Ping has a cancer. But that’s just the start of this eventful erotic melodrama, which also includes potent love potions, a sexy sister, a ruthless sadist, and a gang of lusty ruffians. These sexy playgirls may not be carefree, but they are completely entertaining.
Review: Psychedelic Sex Freak is another slobbering obscurity that could only have been made in the sick, sick seventies. Eddie is a love-starved degenerate. He’s girl crazy (no girl will even look at him, that’s why he’s crazy!) Alas, Cupid has shot him in the ass. Eddie is obsessed with Nora, a mouth-watering doe-eyed little cupcake. She works in her uncle’s motel, cleaning rooms. He asks her out but she’d rather date a farm animal than Eddie. Eddie spends his time reading MEN magazine and having psychedelic wet dreams involving speeded-up naked strippers. He fantasizes about women he passes on the street. ("Lick my lollipop." he commands. "You’re the greatest, Eddie.") Things change when he buys a book on hypnotism. "Power over women, alright!" he drools. A narrator helpfully informs us about the power of suggestion, adding, "Hypnotism does not require eyes of any particular type." Poor little Nora is his first stop. He mumbles some words, does a bit of hocus-pocus and Presto! - she is soon transformed into his own personal dick ornament. Like Gumby, he bends her juicy body into a variety of lewd positions. He programs her. Every time she hears him say, "Nora, I want you", she goes into a trance and is forced to satisfy Eddie’s ugly needs. While he’s tickling her tonsils he says, happily, "This is the way I want it. I can’t cope with other women. They’re always talking." (!) Nora has mind-bending sadomasochistic dreams where she’s chained up and penetrated doggie style (woof!). Meanwhile, Eddie’s libido is out of control. Nora isn’t enough for this filthy bastard. He hypnotizes her girlfriend and they all flop into the sack for a threesome. "Serve your master" he says. I don’t know what’s stiffer, the acting or Eddie’s gigantic bone. It ends with the implication that Eddie is going to continue to get more ass than a toilet seat. Quality Filth. -Mike Accomando, Dreadful Pleasures
Review: [color=red]***SPOILER ALERT***[/color] This is an aesthetically well conceived psycho-drama, which seems built around his own (well chosen) musical sound-track (Franz Liszt romantic Concertos and Franco's own synthesized scores). Images and music combined, create a fascinating erotic atmosphere. "Sinfonia Erotica" (Erotic Symphony) is a most appropriate title for this movie. I consider it one of Franco's most ambitious and best crafted works in spite of being an "only-few-thousand-bucks-budget-production". The movie has a captivating languid pace, with slow, sudden unpredictable circling camera movements and shots from unorthodox angles. The lens cuts thru the shadows, showing mainly details of faces, bodies and objects, often reflected in mirrors. The setting is a large villa, surrounded by luscious vegetation and sunny bodies of water. The camera leads us, following the action, through rooms and corridors, whose darkness is broken by the flickering light of candles and oil-lamps, shown in close-up and out-of-focus. Distant voices, moaning, echoes and other eerie sound-effects, effectively contribute creating a morbid and hallucinated atmosphere of sensuality and corruption. The story is about Countess Martine De Bressac (sultry Lina Romay), her mental illness, her sensual obsession and her very "Sadean" relationship to her husband. She feels irresistible lust driven love for him. In return she gets rejection, psychological abuse and humiliation. Armand had engaged earlier in a relationship with an ambiguous teenager named Fiore, and completely neglects his marital duties, which drives Martine over the edge of mental sanity. During her recurring sex-abstinence triggered violent crises, she wildly caresses her body, trying in vane to quench her sexual desire. One night, she sexually assaults Norma, a young novice (beautiful Susan Hemingway). Earlier in the movie, Norma had been found wounded at the entrance of the villa and immediately "adopted" by Armand, who turned her into his favorite "pleasure-toy", to provide a touch of extra spice, during his encounters with Fiore. In a later twist of the story however, Norma and Fiore fall in love and are planning to run away. This triggers the vengeance of Armand. He discovers them making passionate love and, in a sudden burst of rage, runs his sword thru their naked bodies joined (at this point forever) in the act of love. Martine lives secluded within the boundaries of the villa, in a semi-catatonic mental state, her eyes gazing through the window towards imaginary spaces. She spends time only in the company of her lady-friend Wanda, who warns her about the criminal plans of Armand and will pay with death her loyalty to her mistress and, sometimes, briefly with her mysterious Doctor who, however, seems "playing on both sides of the fence". Martine appears not able to communicate with the real world. In her mind she hears the loving words exchanged with her husband at the beginning of their marriage. She only becomes alive during her continuously frustrated attempts to make love to Armand. She keeps getting rejected and forced back to a borderline mental state, where reality and fantasy are deeply interconnected. Relentlessly she keeps offering herself to him and finally, one night, he violently possesses her. At one point, close to the peak of pleasure, she gasps, collapses and dies or, at least so it appears. Here we get the most baffling conclusion of the story! Armand plunges into a remorseful state of despair for having killed Fiore. In spite of having reached his objective (getting rid of his wife to get free access to all her wealth), he is a broken man. One night, suddenly Martine appears like a ghost in front of him, with a deadly sword in her hand. Did she came back from death or did she faked it? She is vengeful and determined to finally settle the scores. Armand is in shock, he can't take it anymore and begs her in tears, to put and end to his misery. She runs the sword thru his throat and...Justice is delivered! In the closing sequence we see Martine with her shady Doctor, who urges her, now that "their plan has been accomplished", to forget the whole sad story and start together a new life. Does this mean that Martine was not the "victim" but really the architect of a complex plot, to turn her husband into the "actual victim"? De Sade often mixes-up the roles of "victim" and "executioner" and the "victim" has to fall to the lowest annihilation level and "die" in order to "resurrect". Or was the whole story just the product of Martine's schizophrenic fantasy? Or perhaps a dream? This is a complex, multi-layered movie, recommendable to mature and open-minded viewers and to Franco fans. The depiction of sexual situations is graphic, bordering (and frequently trespassing) forbidden territory. This "IS" a movie for grown-ups. Without the sex sequences, the movie would simply fall apart. If you decide to go for it, please beware of any edited/cut versions. They would keep you safe from nudity and sex however, they would leave you guessing, hopelessly trying to find some sense for the (at this point) loose images rolling on screen. Lina Romay is a wonderful leading lady and she delivers one of the best performances of her career. Her portrait of Countess Martine is convincing and compelling. She is sensitive, romantic, passionate, sad, wild and crazy. Her wonderful big dark eyes have a unique and natural ability to express all kind of feelings. Her sensuality is intense and overwhelming. She doesn't only impersonate the character; she really "IS" Martine De Bressac! Susan Hemingway's character is also complex. She is young and pretty and shows generously her teen body. Perhaps she also actually tried to act here, which is hard to tell since, in my copy, she gets the worst and most vulgar Italian dubbing among the whole cast. Sadly, this little gem, in spite of being an Italian co-production, probably never made it to regular theatrical release in my own native country.
Review: The color science fiction film, financed by paychecks from Mike’s day job as a photo retoucher, was Sins of the Fleshapoids (1965). Sins would stand as Mike’s best-known film and the single most significant, creatively realized example of ’60s camp cinema sensibility. Pulsating with excessive colors, Sins unfolds while the camera’s eye floats indulgently over bright flowing fabrics, jewelry, tropical plastic foliage, and platters of glowing fruit that evoke a corrupt paradise. "My specific aim was to bombard and engulf the screen with vivid and voluptuous colors," said Mike of Sins in a 1967 Film Culture interview, "because Sins is a fantasy of science fiction. So I tried to boost the colors according to its category: ‘fantastic’ or ‘unreal.’ I intentionally used a color film that when reproduced in the final print becomes ‘unnatural’ and ‘souped up,’ especially in the reds." Sins starred Gina Zuckerman, Maren Thomas, Donna Kerness, and Julius Middleman (who later became a cop). Bob Cowan, who narrated the film and chose the music, gives a jerky, deadpan performance as the lead male robot, and George steals the show as Gianbeano, evil prince from the future. The story transpires a million years in the future, after "The Great War" has depopulated the earth and ravaged the landscape. Mankind, reduced to a debauched few, has forsaken science for greedy indulgence in all the carnal pleasures afforded by art, aesthetics, and lust, leaving work to be done by a race of enslaved robots. One rebellious male robot (Cowan) tires of pampering his lazy masters and murders a human woman after a failed rape attempt, then engages in successful robot sex — the touch of fingers — with a female android. Thus the Fleshapoids join their human masters in sin ... and in procreation, as the female android gives birth to a baby robot. Although Sins is set in the future, there is a classical look to the costuming and set designs that foreshadows Mike’s fondness for an ancient, muscular, Roman sexuality that he would elaborate on in later films and in his published gay pornographic comics. Sins of the Fleshapoids played midnights for three weeks at an established theater in Greenwich Village and went on to become a staple of the underground. Mike was now able to quit his day job and live for six years off the income of his films, which included, among other things, sales of prints to museum archives worldwide and honorariums for presenting his work at university and film society screenings. (This was more a testament to Mike’s modest expenses than to any vast sums generated by the films.) Along with Anger’s Scorpio Rising (1964) and Warhol’s The Chelsea Girls (1966), Sins of the Fleshapoids remains one of the three most influential works of the ’60s American Underground, if one of the least self-consciously scandalous. It was never busted like Scorpio Rising (for a snippet of frontal male nudity), nor did it have the aura of fashionable decadence that radiated from everything Warhol attached his name to and that propelled Chelsea Girls to heights of fame and financial success arguably greater than the film’s value. (At a sold-out 1991 screening of Warhol’s film in Boston, the entire audience left during the unannounced intermission.) That Sins achieved the influence and success it did without sexual scandal or the scenester celebrity that many other underground films exploited is notable.

One of Yeh Hong's lovers, Kim, who is an assassin, also develops a relationship with Mu-Lin. He and Yeh Hong may be working with the emperor's eunuch; all are power hungry. Things seem more than coincidental: does Mu-Lin have a history with this trio? If so, what is it?

Review: [color=red]Tagline: The uncommon adventures of a wild nympho in search of erotic playmates... [/color] Director Findlay plays Spencer, a crippled psycho who loves lesbians, whipped cream, and feet: "I think the smell of feet gets him excited." He also fills his home with naked women who perform strange sex shows -- a girl and a corn cob, then two girls and a bunch of corn cobs ~ after he injects them with an aphrodisiac. But Spencer, like this movie, is quite out of control and soon ties a naked gal to a chair and attacks her nipples with a clothespin before electrocuting her. This does not go over well with either Maria, hired as a sex performer, or Bruno, the uh, talent coordinator, who switches Maria's aphrodisiac with a drug that makes her both paranoid and a tad homicidal. Hallucinating that the other girls are being killed by a couple in gas masks, Maria freaks and attacks Spencer with a barbecue fork... All this and a surprise ending.
Review: Fondly referred to as "THE PIG FUCKING MOVIE" (with good reason), this Belgian-lensed art-dirge is one of the most foul and pretentious pics ever made. It's so damned bizarre that simply detailing the plot can't even come close to conveying the unique combination of utter disgust and absolute boredom you register while viewing it. One thing is certain--director/writer/photographer/editor Thierry Zeno is a certifiable maniac. This stark, ultra-crude b&w nightmare is almost devoid of dialogue and is set on a secluded rural farm. Dominique Garny stars as a middle-aged guy who's already pretty strange at the outset, attempting to put plastic Baby Doll heads onto pigeons. But that's pretty minor once you realize he also has a thing for pigs! It's at this point where Zeno begins to lose his audience. You see, it's lonely all by yourself, with nobody but you and your all-too-willing farm animals. And Miss Piggy has such firm nipples (yeah, you actually see him fondling 'em) and such a delectable "Oink". Plus, the two have so much in common. He eats, he shits. The pig eats, the pig shits. Hell, it's a match made in heaven. Thankfully, Zeno never gives us any close-up penetration--just the farmer leaping into the sty, grabbing onto the pig's love handles, and thrusting his naked body against her backside (and if you think about it, isn't that really enough?). I just hope that Zeno wasn't trying to say anything profound, because although it's dead serious and sick as hell, I couldn't stop laughing at all this bold-faced ridiculousness. For ten minutes we get this moron stumbling about his pathetic spread, doing his chores. And then suddenly, he's fucking the livestock! Eventually the sow has a litter of piggy babies, and after watching Mr. Green Genes play with his offspring for about 20 minutes, he decides to strangle the babies and bottle their remains. This causes Mama Pig to fall over dead, and the finale is particularly touching, when the bloke goes even squirrelier and starts eating his own shit. Now, if I've made this movie sound at all entertaining, then I've failed in my review, because despite its truly repellant subject matter, it's also one of the most monotonous movies ever made. Even the Fast Forward button didn't help. Though the movie occasionally approaches an ERASERHEAD-like effect, with its subversion of normal reality in favor of one's darkest fantasies, that would be giving it too much credit. Complete with shrill sound design and unrelentingly grim mood, I can only assume Zeno was trying to corner the market in sluggishly-paced art films for people who enjoy sodomizing swine. Congratulations. He succeeded.
Review: Based on the infamous novel by Leopold Sacher-Masoch this fine film follows the perverted passions of a young couple as Severin (Régis Vallée) watches the beautiful Wanda (Laura Antonelli) writhing naked amongst furs. His disturbing peeping tomism triggers off a whirlpool of emotions due to a childhood episode which punishes voyeurism with pain.
Review: Lowlife cable TV operator Max Renn discovers a "snuff TV" broadcast called Videodrome. But Videodrome is more than a TV show - it's an experiment that uses regular TV transmissions to permanently alter the viewer's perceptions by giving them brain damage.

Review: Susan arrives in Haiti to live with her husband Jack, who lives with a lesbian housekeeper and Olga, a nymphomaniac platinum blonde, introduced to her as Jack's sister. Susan begins to have nightmares about voodoo ceremonies and murder
Review: Presented here are three "untold stories" from the classic Chinese Novel: Water Margin: "Jinx": Madam Sun is a woman who always thirsts for sex. However, her husband Cheung Ching is impotent, yet clever enough in developing a drug that can heal his shortcoming; "Prodigal": Yin Ching is a martial arts master who knows how to achieve victory with each part of his body, except for his most private part, until a prostitute teaches him a most important good lesson; "Black Whirlwind": Li Kwai is thwarted by his own fame. Faked whirlwinds are everywhere looking to take advantage. A lustful girl is wise and fortunate enough to play dirty, with both impostors, as well as our genuine hero.
Review: From the director of CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST, Ruggero Deodato, comes this amazingly sleazy film starring a wonderfuly sleazy John Steiner as George, a ruthless businessman interested only in money and brutal sex. His credo: “There’s no pleasure without pain”. He picks up a young beauty (Barbara, girlfriend of Cliver) at a local art gallery and invites her to dinner. Instead of the young Barbara, Cliver arrives at George’s table. Barbara brings Steiner’s girl, Silvia, to the dinner and claims to be her best friend. The two couples decide to get together for a weekend cruise. In the morning, the body of a man Steiner argued with turns up. Aboard the boat, the sexual tension builds. Also stars Silvia Dionisio and Elizabeth Turner. Written by Gianlorenzo Battaglia and Lamberto Bava. Screenplay by Grango Bottari and Fabio Pittorru. (1982) In English.Two carefree youngsters, Irem and Barbara, are invited for a weekend cruise on a yacht owned by Giorgio, a ruthless and cynical industralist, whom is married to Silvia, a disturbed woman whom allows herself to be physically and mental abused by this devil-may-care man.

Review: This film received only a minor release in the United States in a shortened and dubbed version and was shown intact only at some touring museum series many years later. That is a shame considering the stature of the two leading performers, Anna Magnani and Giulietta Masina, both of them great ladies of the Italian cinema. Their performances are riveting. NELLA CITTA' L'INFERNO is about an innocent housewife (Masina) who is falsely convicted of theft and is sent to a women's prison in Rome. There she is tutored in the ways of crime by her expert cell-mate (Magnani) and must live amid a company of prostitutes, murderers, and thieves. Their effect on her is not a positive one. Renato Castellani directed this lively piece, and Roman comedian-actor Alberto Sordi has a small role in it.
Review: Eight women miners get fed up with their lifestyle and decide to try crime. After successfully pulling off a jewelry store robbery, they are busted by narcs when they try to buy cocaine. The eight get sent to a prison where a butch head guard (Georgia Morgan) uses the prisoners for her own deviant pleasures. Two of the women (Sherri Vernon, Dixie Lauren) manage to escape and then get mixed up with a shah who had a scarab ring stolen in their jewelry heist. Director ted Mikels appears as Leo the Fence, who is killed by one of the women who stabs him repeatedly with her spiked heel
Review: 99 WOMEN... behind bars -- without men! This flick was made a year after the notorious "Love Camp 7", and it ain't as nasty as that and compared to Jess Franco later WIP sickies like "Sadomania" - "99 Women" is kinda tame but there's plenty of cheap thrills, groovy broads and Herbert (Mark Of The Devil) Lom in top form! It's also a wellmade film with a fun (yet dated) soundtrack. The infamous UK censors cut over 30 min. of the running time, so get the uncut version!
Review: Young women in the Amazon are kidnapped by a ring of devil-worshipers, who plan to sell them as sex slaves. Some of the women escape, but are pursued into the jungle by their captors. The women must band together to turn the tables on their kidnappers.
Review: Tim Kinkaid (who once directed pornographic films under the name Joe Gage) delivers a hot and steamy prison drama, starring an arsenal of sexy women and one seriously butch warden with a German accent. Most of the lovely ladies holed up in the New York Female Juvenile Reformatory swear they're not guilty. But with checkered pasts that include rape, drug use and teen pregnancy, these first-time felons aren't as innocent as they seem.

Review: The story of Kat Stanton (Kidman), an Australian woman searching for her father who, whilst travelling back from London to Australia via Thailand, makes friends with Arkie Ragan (Ehlers), a photographer. Kat is tricked into carrying some luggage through Thai customs for Arkie, only for the police to find drugs in his bag. Kat is sentenced to spend time in the horrific "Bangkok Hilton" prison, where she makes friends with fellow inmate Mandy Engels (Smithers), who has been sentenced to death. Whilst she endures the terrible conditions inside, Kat's lawyer Richard Carlisle (Weaving) and ex-patriot Hal Stanton (Elliott) battle with the authorities to have her freed.
Review: The first Franco/Erwin Dietrich effort is probably Franco's most exploitive film with numerous sadistic scenes of torture and perversion. A true exploitation masterpiece that only a director like Franco could make. Maria (Lina Romay) is sentenced to prison for life for killing her father that attempted to rape. She is sent to a special section of the jail know for it's cruel and sadistic treatment of prisoners. The wardress (Monica Swinn) is a sadistic lesbian who knows no mercy and takes pleasure in her job. Maria seduces a male nurse who she eventually kills in order to spring an escape from the hellhole. A must for all fans of sadistic WIP films and for Jess Franco addicts. Also stars Franco regulars Paul Muller, Martine Stedilm and Eric Falk.
Review: In a prison, women rebel against the guards' sadism and sexual abuse and decide to run away. Some manage to escape and are chased by the Police.
Review: Roger Corman produced, Jack Hill directed sequel to The Big Doll House. Filmed in the Phillipines for $125,000. Pam Grier plays a rebel who goes into a prison camp to get chicks for the cause. All inmates are forced to work in a Sugar Cane Mill. Not as groovy as the The Big Doll House, but enjoyable none the less. Pam wrote and sung the theme song.
Review: 'The Big Doll House' may not be the first women in prison movie of the 1970s but it was one of the most influential, kicking off the short lived but legendary Made-in-the-Philippines-but-set-in-some-nameless-Banana-republic cycle. The tape I watched was part of "The Pam Grier Collection" but to say Grier is the STAR of this movie is an exaggeration. Judy Brown is the star and Roberta Collins is equally important as Grier. But Brown didn't do all that much after this, and Collins is only remembered by exploitation buffs (for 'Caged Heat', 'Death Race 200' and 'Eaten Alive'), while Grier became a blaxploitation icon. That's cool, but let's not fool ourselves here. As enjoyable as it is watching Pam in this one she really doesn't do all that much. Jack Hill regular Sid Haig ('Spider Baby') has some memorable and amusing schtick with her. He plays a horny guy who brings the female prisoners food and other treats for cash. Grier and Haig obviously made a great team, and Hill would exploit this in his even more enjoyable 'The Big Bird Cage', which isn't a sequel to this movie as many seem to think. 'Bird Cage' is the better movie, but 'Doll House' is still a pretty good movie that any fan of 1970s b-grade movies will get a kick out of.
Review: When two troublemaking female prisoners (one a revolutionary, the other a former harem-girl) can't seem to get along, they are chained together and extradited for safekeeping. The women, still chained together, stumble, stab, and cat-fight their way across the wilderness, igniting a bloody shootout between gangsters and a group of revolutionaries.
Review: A constant runaway is given over to the care of the state and finds herself in a remand centre for girls. She is soon caught between the uncaring bureaucracy, the sometimes brutal treatment from her peers and her own abusive family, and only one care worker sees her potential to rise above her tragic circumstances.
Review: In a concentration camp in the north of Vietnam, women are tortured until they become killing machines. The women are brainwashed to become suicide bombers. Unfortunately after the fist successful brainwashing the girls are not performing as expected and the commanders of the camp must work doubly hard to produce the results the government is expecting of them. Very soon, a deadly revolt of the women will start…
Review: A girl is caught in a drug bust and sent to the hoosegow. The iron-handed superintendent takes exception to a skit performed by the girls and takes punitive steps, aided by the sadistic doctor who is doing illegal electroshock experiments and raping drugged prisoners. After a while the prisoners put away their petty differences and plan the Big Prison Escape
Review: Trivia: The film was initially banned in the United Kingdom in 1992 by the British Board of Film Classification before being granted an 18 certificate later in the year after more than 24 minutes of cuts. Here we have a prime example of a women-in-prison film: shower scenes, the lesbian prison guard, sexual abuse of the prisoners, unlawful imprisonment, staff murdering inmates,etc. We even have a good guy and a happy ending. However, this film is way over the top, increasing the sleaze factor enormously, and having not the slightest inclination to tell a believable story. For example, both the sexual abuse and the unlawful killings are organised: the women are first auctioned to the highest bidder, then let loose in the jungle, then hunted down, then raped, and then killed. Although superficially the film is much more exploitative (more sex and more violence) than even the usual genre entries by the likes of Cirio H. Santiago, Jack Hill, or Jess Franco, the viewer is always aware that none of this is serious and that turns it around, it makes it less nasty.
Review: Linda Blair plays Carol, a young woman who must serve 18 months in prison after killing a man (by accident). The prison turns out to be brimming with decadence, corruption and sleaze, where the other female inmates are sadistic crack-selling lesbian rapists and the guards and warden are no better. Racial tensions are high as the inmates is divided into two factions, blacks and whites, who must either join together against the management or kill each other trying. A sleazy blend of sexploitation and blaxploitation make this movie a real winner.
Review: Reiko Ike stars as the daughter of a man who has been pushed into drug dealing by the local Yakuza mob. Having outlived his usefulness to the gang he is murdered and Reiko is gang raped, leading her to attempt a knife attack on the Yakuza boss (Ryoji Hayama) at a swank nightclub. Failing to kill him she ends up in prison, where she befriends a crew of other malcontents (including Yumiko Katayama and Chiyoko Kazama) and meets the Yakuza boss's girlfriend (Miki Sugimoto). Upon release Reiko reassembles her mob and launches a Machiavellian scheme to engineer a gang war between Hayama's Oba Industries and the formerly dominant Hamayasu Clan. The rival gangs begin killing each other off and Reiko works her way closer to her ultimate vengeance.
Review: Reiko Oshida stars as a young wannabe gangster tough girl, just released from reform school. She tracks down one of her classmates fathers, who runs an auto repair shop that the local Yakuza are trying to force out of business and take over, and starts working for him. At the same time a recently released from prison, and now ill Yakuza is trying to make a new life for himself and his girl, a friend of Reiko's, who also just graduated from reform school. A fateful car crash brings the two on a collision course with each other and the brutal Yakuza clan, which can only end bloody vengeance.
Review: A remote island plantation in the Philippines is run by a fascist and his squad of jackbooted soldiers. Slave ships bring in women and take out the harvest while the dictator (somehow) plans on creating a pure race. Udo Keir plays one of the soldiers who decides to kill everyone and escape the island with one of the slave girls. The subplot in which a guard is slowly killed by having a tree spider lay eggs in his neck is probably more disgusting than any disemboweling or decapitation ever could be. Not your typical "Island Women" kinda flick, in spite of the title. Surreal jungle WIP film with midgets, spiderman and vodoo. A real jaw dropper.
Review: A man falls in love with a prostitute who works in a brothel. He wants to get her out but there is no way to do that. The more he tries to help her, the more violence he witnesses and he has to fight against it. In one scene, he is attacked by a kick boxing nude amazon blonde (sic!). The second half of the film is a violent "tour de force", and as bodies are piling up during the action-packed climax, this film also becomes one of the goriest Hongkong films aside the great "The Untold Story" and the viciously funny "The Ebola Syndrome". another great review is here: https://www.rumourmachine.com/Reviews/Escape_From_Brothel.htm
Review: A women's prison camp is located deep in the tropical rain forest. Sadistic guards and a warden from hell make life almost unbearable for the inmates, and any infraction of the rules is dealt with swiftly and savagely. The camp doctor is horrified at what he sees happening, and drinks heavily to push the horror away. Finally the inmates have had had enough, and they enlist the help of the doctor to try and escape.
Review: A Japanese officer, of Chinese decent, can no longer tolerate the disdain his family has towards his political convictions and brutal ways. He decides to punish his family by imprisoning them in a war-prison where torture is the rule of thumb and all other prisoners have been brought for political reasons. The inmates though are planning their escape and with the help of the resistance will make one daring journey to potential freedom. This rare Asian Women-in-Prison film is directed by Le Ho Chang & stars Ko Chang, Dae Keun Lee, Mi Ran Jun.
Review: Matsu, known to the prisoners as Scorpian, is locked away in the bowels of the prison as revenge for disrupting the smooth operation of the prison and for her disfiguring attack on the warden. Granted a one day reprieve due to the visit of a dignitary, she takes advantage and attacks the warden again. This leads to more brutal punishment and humiliation. But the punishment gives her an oppurtunity to escape along with six other female prisoners. Their surreal flight from prison pits the convicts against the guards, the warden and each other
Review: Young women are being abducted by a gang of modern day slave traders, only to be prepared as exclusive sex toys for their "business relations" When some of the girls try to escape from their prison the gang retaliates in a brutal and vicious way.
Review: Great Japanese exploitation story featuring the incomparable Kaji Meiko ("Lady Snowblood"). Excellent cinematography and use of set pieces as well as exaggerated angles and lighting. As enjoyable as this film is, it's not the best in the series... the second chapter, also directed by Ito Shunya and starring Kaji Meiko ("Joshuu sasori: Dai-41 zakkyo-bô", aka "Female Convict Scorpion: Jailhouse 41") is a transcendent piece of filmmaking and eclipses the first film in every regard: cinematography, locations, acting, script, and music
Review: The first three "Female Convict Scorpion" movies, which are the only ones directed by Shunya Ito, are part of the same series but are entirely different entities structurally. The first one is a fairly straight-forward 'women in prison' flick, the second is a piece of great avant-garde film-making, and the third is a slow paced character study. In fact, for most of the movie it is pure Japanese drama, especially the first half, and most viewers would be hard pressed to pigeonhole the movie with just calling it an exploitation film. Not to say it is completely separate from the other two. Matsu is still her usual quiet self, albeit with a few more lines than normal, and the men are still complete scumbags. She's still running from the cops and using any pointy object she can get her hands on, but she is also keeping a steady job sewing, which is a strange sight to see for any fan of Matsu's previous exploits. She soon finds herself in a situation defending herself and two prostitutes against a local gangs, and violence obviously ensues. So is it actually any good? For most part, yes, yes it is. The pacing is definitely slower but works well with its new rhythm. It just that it really does not go anywhere with all its character development that fills the first half, and the carnage that ensues does not the fun spirit of its predecessors. Its still a very colorful and stylish film, with some really memorable scenes, but it leaves you wondering why such an otherwise energetic trilogy had to end on a period, and not the exclamation point that its avid fans had all been expecting.
Review: Yasuharu Hasebe (Black Tight Killers) took over for director Shunya Ito for this, the last Female Convict Scorpion picture starring Meiko Kaji (Lady Snowblood). The film opens with Nami Matsushima (a.k.a. Matsu, a.k.a. Scorpion) once again on the lam. The police track her down at a wedding, but she manages to escape. Badly injured, she is saved by a man who works in a strip joint and holds a grudge against the police for torturing him. Can the Scorpion trust a man again? Should she? One of the reasons Kaji decided to stop doing the Scorpion pictures is that Toei kept slashing the budget with each new installment. This film is smaller in scale and more straightforward than the first three chapters. It is easily the least of the four Scorpion films featuring Meiko Kaji; however, it is still engrossing whenever she is on the screen.

Review: Miko Sugimoto is the leader of the Red Helmet Gang, a biker girl gang from Shinjuku who wind up in Kyoto and make a bid to take over the local girl gangs there. Successful for a short time in ruling the streets it isn't long before Miko and her crew run afoul of the local Yakuza, and are forced to turn to Reiko Ike, a ronin Yakuza girl, and sister to one of the top Yakuza in Kyoto, for help, leading to a murderous showdown at a small coastal resort.
Review: This is René Viénet’s second film. In Girls… he continues using the situationist technique of détournement, transforming trashy Japanese porno (uses footage from Teruo Ishii’s Wild Woman Boss Story - Total Lynch (’73) and Norifumi Suzuki’s Horror High School Women - Violent Lynch Classroom (’73).) into a crypto-Marxist sendup of imperial France. Subversive Japanese Porn!
Review: Framed for the murder of a record company president in 1952 Hollywood, young, aspiring singer Aggie O'Hanlon is sentenced to life in prison and tries to adjust to her life life behind bars in a hellish womens prison where she is befriended by other "lifer" inmates who help her out when Aggie finds herself marked for murder by an unknown source who thinks she knows more about the murder than she does.
Review: This is an absolute champion of trash cinema, one that delivers the goods right along with the best of them. Anyone with a slant toward the "captive females" sub-genre should take note of "Hell Hole"...it's a depraved exercise in male chauvinism, generous on violence, and featuring more swinging udders than a dairy farm. The plot is outrageously kitsch...voluptuous babes are being kidnapped off the street and taken to a mercenary training camp on a remote tropical island. Their purpose- to provide sexual gratification to the trainees. Will their dangerous plans for escape be futile? See this super-great trash epic and find out!!! Not to be missed!!!
Review: Julia, a famous physician, discovers that her sister has been murdered by Frank Coumo, a well know gangster boss. The police are no help to Julia as they feel her death was just an accident. Julia belives otherwise and the only witness to the murder is a young woman who is locked up in prison. Julia enters the jail disguised as an inmate in order to speak to the young woman but falls victim to the sexual brutality within its walls. In an attempt to save money director Sergio Garrone shot this film at the same time and used the same locations and cast as his other woman in prison film Hell Behind Bars. Both films have tons of nudity, brutality and the required lesbian encounters and cat fights. Starring Ajita Wilson, Rita Silva, Linda Jones, Alex Frayberger, John Vincent, Lex Burton, Hellen Johansson.
Review: VIOLENT Women-In-Prison flick that features Ajita Wilson (Masturbating with a pipe!) as an inmate at a sleazy South American women’s prison where the inmates are sent to hard labor in the mines so to reduce their sentences. They are beaten, whipped, and even raped into submission. This is the UNCUT version that contains the brief XXX/HARDCORE inserts and sex scenes. This one features plenty of nudity and some good violence as well

Review: GEFANGENE FRAUEN (better known in the US as ISLAND WOMEN) is a fantastic WIP film directed by Erwin Dietrch with an amazing cast the includes Brigitte Lahaie, Karine Gambier, France Lomay, Nadine Pascal, Krista Free and Eric Falk. In a South American country the 'El President; decides he has to hide the prostitutes who work in his brothels. His plaything, Karine Gambier suggests he had the girls 'arrested' and brought to an island prison where she plays the warden who must keep the girls in line. There the prisoners are subjected to the usual women-in-prison disciplinary actions. There's an abundance of nudity in this fine exploitation film from Erwin Dietrich that has a little bit of everything for fans of Euro-Trash. How can you go wrong with a cast that includes Karine Gambier, Brigitte Lahaie and France Lomay?
Review: This is a powerful drama about a young woman who stumbles into a nightmare land of hijacking and humiliation while driving cross-country from California to New York.
Review: A group of women are kidnapped by guerrillas and forced to serve as prostitutes for them in a jungle brothel. The sadistic female warden decapitates uncooperative girls.
Review: A former female cop is framed by corrupt police, acting in collusion with the local judge, and has to fight her way out of the pen, alone, against tough inmates, and the people in charge.
Review: A sexy Category III Hong Kong period piece that tells the story of two prostitutes and how they were sold into prostitution at the brothel. One woman was screwing a neighbor while another was to teach a young prince the ways of sex and how to please a woman. Lots of softcore sex, nudity and such in this one. Hard to find as well.
Review: Three showgirls on their way to Las Vegas have car trouble and are stuck all night out in the desert. The next morning cheerful Andre (Andrew Prine) offers them help in fixing their car. However, Andre is really a maniac with a lot of family problems; his mother ran out on him when he was a child so now he keeps kidnapped women chained up in his barn and trains them to perform circus tricks. Andre's father is still around of course, but because the old homestead is next to a nuclear test site he has been transformed into a raving homicidal mutant that Andre keeps locked up in a shed.
Review: Jenny is sent to a women's reform school. It is run by evil warden Sutter and her henchwoman Edna. Jenny will stop at nothing to escape but she also has to deal with Charlie the bully.
Review: More Italian female-lockdown stuff, this time with a little more emphasis on the dramatic elements. When a woman is sent to prison after a frame-up she experiences the vileness of the slammer: Evil penguins (nuns), shower scenes, riots, and all girl group sex.
Review: After killing her husband, Nathalie Baldassari is sent to prison for 10 years. During this stay of torture, Nathalie begins experiencing mental-health problems and concentrates her hatred towards every woman. Out of prison a series of brutal killings starts in Venezia. Her last victim finds her diary and tells us the story of sexual torture! Stars Marianna Bertucci, Michelle Bond, Yunaisa Frometa, Andreas Bethmann, Michelle Lornak, Katharina Herm, Natascha Wetzig, Nathalie Balini, Carmen Koscina, Sylvia Solaris, Jörg Kopetz, Jess Franco and Lina Romay.
Review: In all the annals of exploitation cinema, there has never been anything quite like it: Take a luscious young bride (beautiful Playboy centerfold Ursula Fellner) thrust into a brutal prison camp run by a sadistic woman warden (the stunning transsexual adult film star Ajita Wilson). Add generous helpings of lesbian lust, bestial perversion and some very extreme violence. Then mix in a jaw-dropping performance by the film’s controversial director as a degenerate white slaver. Do you dare take a forbidden taste of the wildest women-in-prison movie ever made? Banned outright in the UK and available only in heavily censored versions in America, SADOMANIA is the sicko epic that could only come from the mind of Jess Franco (EUGENIE, MARQUIS DE SADES JUSTINE).
Review: Sadly this great often haunting B has all but disappeared and it is all the more unfortunate because it has the components of a immortal cult classic. Schoolgirls In Chains is the truly bizarre story of two brothers who kidnap and keep women locked in the cellar for the retarded brothers childishly sexual games. This very unusual film does beg comparision to Texas Chainsaw Massacre (with themes of cannibalism replaced with incest and necrophilia) and if for no other reason is significant for being one (among DeathDream, Blood and Lace and the later films of Hershell Gordon Lewis) of the darkest drive in films of the early 70s. Tagline: They were abducted and abused... ...but worse was yet to come!!
Review: Scorpion, part I (1998) is an loose remake of the original sleazy W.I.P. series that's based upon a popular manga. Despite the low budget values and the cheesy dialog, this movie is designed to be entertaining and it is. A woman is searching the persons responsible for kidnapping her younger sister. Ever since her disappearance, she's kept it in the back of her mind. Her past comes back to haunt her one day when a patient is admitted into the hospital where she just happens to work. The patient brags to her that he was involved in her sister's kidnapping and tells her there's nothing she could do about it. She snaps and takes care of his loud mouth. For her crimes she's sent to a women's prison. Whilst inside she's violent abused by her fellow inmates and is constantly hit on by the bi-sexual warden. However she uncovers a shocking secret whilst in lock-up. A good sleazy women in prison film filled with nudity, blood, gore and lesbian sex. You know the usual staples that you'll find in a good W.I.P. film. I enjoyed this movie and if you're into this genre you will to. Jesus Franco would be proud. Fun stuff, followed by Scorpion, part II. Beware of the one armed man!
Review: Scorpion, part II (1998) finds Lady Scorpion on the lam. She has a new identity and a new life but she wont give up until she finds out who killed her younger sister. The young lady decides to break into prison to find out some more information. Not just any prison mind you but the very one she just escaped from! She either crazy or stupid (I take a little from column A and a little from column B). Will she finds the answers to her past and will she find closure? Can Lady Scorpion bring the killer or killers back to justice? Is there or isn't their a one armed man? You'll have to find out for yourself. I wont say anymore but it's a real hoot when you find out. Not as great as part one but it's still entertaining. You can find both films one one disc. What are you waiting for? Go out and get it! Unrated but it has a lot of blood, gore and nudity.
Review: Two girls escape from an open borstal for two very different reasons; Annetta to attempt to visit her baby daughter, who is being raised in a convent; and Carol, who hopes to be recaptured and sent to a closed borstal where she knows her girlfriend Doreen is being held. Carol's plan works, although she is devastated to find that not only has Doreen found herself a new girlfriend inside (who both taunt and tease Carol), when Annetta is arrested at the convent and sent to the same closed borstal, she assumes it was Carol who "grassed" her up and proceeds to plan her revenge. Carol finds protection in the form of inmate Eddie, while Annetta's constant bullying attempts keep her in solitary confinement; however, Carol's world is turned upside-down when Eddie is released from bortsal and her protection is gone...

Review: Two women who have been unjustly confined to a prison planet plot their escape, all the while having to put up with lesbian guards, crazed wardens and mutant rodents.
Review: Carlo Lizzani directs this classic Italian exploitation film from 1975. Young girls are brought into the world of prostitution where they are bought and sold like slaves. Stars Cinzia Mambretti, Lidia Di Corato, Cristina Moranzoni & Annarita Grapputo. Score by Ennio Morricone.
Review: In the wake of a Supreme Court decision to outlaw the death penalty, California passes an initiative that designates San Bruno island as a dumping spot for first-degree murder convicts, free to do what they like except leave. The main camp of convicts is controlled by the tyrannical Bobby, who rules with an iron hand, and the women are used as sex slaves. A.J. and a group of more free-minded murderers have escaped and gone into hiding. When A.J. and his men liberate the women from Bobby's custody, tensions mount to an all-out confrontation for control of the island.
Review: Three new students at a super-strict girl's school must face off with a repressive school administration, the sadistic, murderous student discipline brigade and corrupt politicians over the murder/suicide of one of their friends. They're approached by a blackmailer (Tsunehiko Watase) who promises to help them exact vengeance in exchange for setting up a corrupt local politician, and aided by a independent Yakuza biker chick (Reiko Ike).
Review: Terrible things occur daily in a remote penal camp for women well beyond the Chinese wall. The main guard of the camp runs a dictatorial regiment. The slightest offences of the inmates are severely punished and all of the women are at the mercy of the guard's brutal despotism. Betrayal and torture feed the hate of the yellow tigresses; thus the women decide to take horrible revenge. Will they be able to break out of the witches' cauldron?
Review: A group of female freedom-fighters led by Karine Levere is caught by the war-den of a women’s prison, located some-where in the South American jungle. None of them will reveal the secrets of their organisation or the names of their collaborators in the cities, so they are handed over to Dr. Costa who, after four years inactivity in Europe, is delighted to be able to practice his torture techniques once more. This movie is a bizarre mix of really sick stuff and camp humor. It would seem that even the most demented pervert could not think up the torture techniques displayed in this film, and there is plenty of blood. But the warden and the torture master are genuinely funny at times, playing their evilness like comic book villains. Some of the scenes are ridiculous and comical, and the music selection is at times very comical. This is a good thing, because it takes the edge off of the all of the hideous torturing going on. These Jess Franco movies are really something. This is a movie that I would recommend seeing at least once just so you're aware that movies like this actually exist.
Review: The young, pretty and shy Angels McDuvall is jailed for murder in some Latin American country. In the prison she gets brutally "initiated" by the other inmates. The nice, honest and handsome prison doctor believe she's innocent and tries to help her out.
Review: Must-see for erotic S&M enthusiasts; one of the best looking but meanspiritied of the S&M films; directed by Koji Wakamatsu; starring Yuki Minami and Rumiko Sato; four misogynitic and cruel stories - 1) female Christians are viciously tortured in a dungeon circa 18th century; 2) a cuckolded man beats his cheating wife and her lover; 3) during WW2 inquisition soldiers abuse female traitors with whips and wooden horse tortures; then 4) three soldiers rape and violate spies; original Japanese title GOMON HYAKU-NEN-SHI (100 Years of Inquisition Torture)
Review: Director Mou Tun-fei came to international attention as director of the controversial Man Behind The Sun in 1988. But years prior, he was known for this unremitting tale of kung-fu sadism. Yueh Hua, co-star of Clan Of Amazons and Clans Of Intrigue, tears up the screen as a corrupt magistrate, so obsessed with finding a hidden treasure that he buries his daughter alive, setting off a frenzy of destruction.
Review: Someone is stealing cheerleaders and other pretty girls and selling them to the highest bidder. Female super sexy spy Ginger is soon employed to investigate the disappearances. She does so by going undercover with a fellow agent and doing whatever is necessary to put an end to the operation and take down the leaders.
Review: Based on a true story set in pre-war Japan, a man and one of his servants begin a torrid affair. Their desire becomes a sexual obsession so strong that to intensify their ardor, they forsake all, even life itself. This is definately not your average tale this one. A story of two lovers sexually obsession. Very graphic, but not in an arousing way for the viewer (ok, not for me but i can't speak for everyone). The main character Sada is a seriously disturbed individual, her obsession with her lover amazing. As for her lover, would you let a woman who put a knife to your throat & threaten to remove your genitals if you sleep with another woman strangle you for erotic pleasure? Think this story is in the realm of the imagination, it not. This was a true story. Worth a look. Not for those easily disturbed or offended by images on film
Review: In downtown Japan, a lonely computer nerd tries to maintain a peaceful existance while being stalked by a gang of deviant homosexuals who want to use him for their brutal S&M activities.
Review: The film is not as savagely violent as the previous two movies "All Night Long 2" and "All Night Long 3",but the tone of it is definitely disturbing and depressing.It tells us about obviously disturbed Japanese individual named Yuuki who captures two Japanese girls.One of them, Reika, is brutally murdered and her captor cuts her up and takes her body parts like ears and breast.The second girl is chained to his bed and he performs a hideous experiments on her body."All Night Long R" is a rather slow-moving horror film that offers plenty of shocking violence.The acting is excellent and the killing of a Japanese boy is extremely vicious and cruel.Sometimes the film has a mood of a very sad romance.So if you're a fan of Katsuya Matsumura's works give this gem a look.
Review: When a young woman witnesses a suicide she is so overwhelmed with sexual excitement that she masturbates,unaware that she is being observed by a strange man.Later he invites her home where she is wined and dined.Soon she wakes up to find herself locked in a cage.Of course their twisted and sadomasochistic relationship will end in a sadistically explicit bloodbath...The version of "All Night Long 5" I have is in Japanese,but the above synopsis is general gist.I'm a big fan of Katsuya Matsumura and I absolutely love the first three "All Night Long" movies."All Night Long R" is also pretty good whilst still being deeply disturbing.Unfortunately "Initial O" is too long and sometimes dull,so I was a little bit disappointed.Still there is plenty of sex and some unsettling sexual torture on display.There is not enough gore,but some scenes(for example throat slashing or castration)are particularly nasty."All Night Long O" looks more like extremely dark drama/romance with surprisingly nasty edge than horror film,but if you're a fan of Japanese horror give it a look
Review: Cashing in on the boom of period sex films following the surprise success of Sex and Zen, Ivan Lai spins this bizarre erotic drama. Following the death of her father, beautiful maiden Siu-ching (Ching Suet-ngan) reluctantly sells herself into prostitution to pay off her family's debts. When the virginally lass initially balks at her professional duties, Miss Ng (Yvonne Yung Hung) -- the brothel's ruthless madam -- threatens to dunk her in a boiling pot of eels. Siu-chang quickly changes her mind, and with the help of kindly worker Yat (Dick Lau), she soon becomes familiar with the ways of the prostitute. Meanwhile, a rival whorehouse hires a white prostitution from overseas, sending Miss Ng into a tizzy; buxom Sister Bamboo (Yuen King-tan) finds herself without clients when she accidentally smothers one with her oversized breasts; and the workers in the hose band together to nab a serial rapist whose victim of choice are prostitutes
Review: High School Co-Ed takes its roots from the juvenile delinquent movie,complete with a fuzz guitar score and motorbikes. We first see the gang harassing a pompous car driver, beating him up and raping his girlfriend, the gang consisting of Muraki, his envious friend and the obligatory dumb strongman (who - in this case - is also quite impotent), who probably just got together, because there was nobody else around. When Muraki subsequently rapes the student girl Nami who impresses him with the dignity she carries the violation, he falls in love with her. Realising at the same time, that his little sister is becoming a woman and a potential rape victim too, he tries to reorganize his life - and fails.
Review: Second in the series and the second by Mr Sone and what an achievement it is. The rawness of the first is gone but this is not to say there is any less passion or vigour. Beginning with a shock sequence, this ends with an even more shocking one and for a centrepiece has a prolonged scene set in a love hotel in which the central female character, Nami, seems to turn into one of Edvard Munch's vampire women before our very eyes. This tour de force, encompassing love, marriage, passion and sentimentality concentrates more upon sexual violence and the aggression and greed of the participants. Whatever the type of relationship depicted, we are shown the same tendency towards abuse and to increase our anxiety all this is intercut with scary/sexy scenes of the making of porno movies and photo sex magazines. A challenging film that does not stop asking us questions whilst showering us with titillation, violence, abuse and fierce erotica.
Review: Just when you feel you may have, at last, some measure of Japanese cinema you find out that you do not even have the measure of this ultra extraordinary series - this being number three. Absolutely non stop and for almost a half of the time this means non stop rape sequences. Nami is investigating the consequences of rape by searching out the victims and interviewing them for her magazine. We see the enactment as she reads up on it and we see it again when the individual relates it and sometimes we see it again as Nami's fascination deepens and she begins to fantasise. For good measure we get a re-run of them all at the end as well. As well as all this the tone of the film, fairly routine at the very beginning, begins to take on a sultry sexiness, then a more stylised slant before tipping deliriously over the edge with wide scale scenes of madness, mayhem and more rape with bloody violence added in. As if it were not enough the Nami is gradually getting more sexually excited by these stories she is retelling but we discover that her new found boyfriend is estranged from his wife because she went off with her rapist! There are so many mixed messages in here I shall be interested to listen to the commentary track and also to see this incredible tour de force once more. But not for the moment, this is a very difficult and emotional ride and if I was not shaking afterwards I was certainly profoundly affected. Bold, courageous film making taken way beyond the edge and down through many murky, but not unexciting, levels of depravity.
Review: A nurse is assaulted and nearly raped by some hoodlums at her hospital. She manages to escape and runs home for comfort, only to discover her husband cheating on her. She then flees her home only to have the bad luck of being hit by a car. And then, as if things weren't bad enough, she wakes up just in time to find herself being molested by the man that hit her. Talk about a bad day. After the initial attack, the man keeps her captive and a classic case of Stolkhome syndrome kicks in, with her willingly giving into his advances. During this period viewers are treated to some graphic, if fogged-out, sex scenes that are a welcome contrast to the earlier scenes of sexual violence.
Review: Two serial killers go on a murdering rampage as one films the outcome from behind a video camera. One of the most realistically portrayed simulated Snuff films.
Review: AUGUST UNGERGROUND'S MORDUM is the follow up to the as yet unreleased underground horror classic AUGUST UNGERGROUND. Lensed in Pittsburgh on digital video, then degraded to look like “found footage,” Mordum is the story of three sick young serial killers who film their acts of violence and torture. The film is peppered with outstanding makeup effects and grisly set pieces, and the performances from Michael T. Schneider (A Tribute to Sanity), Fred Vogel (the original August Underground), and newcomer Cristie Whiles, are daring and unorthodox. The filmmakers strike an odd but compelling linear narrative, while simultaneously creating a disorienting and chaotic environment within which the three psychos wreak their madness. A fourth sicko played by Killjoy of the band Necrophagia, is introduced near the film’s climax. Horror realism at its finest, the August Underground series has the potential to become North America’s answer to the popular Japanese Guinea Pig series. Fans of confrontational cinema take notice. Mordum is a harrowing and brutal film that will surprise even the most jaded horror fan.” -Art Ettinger, Ultra Violent Magazine.
Review: Based on the novel by Virginie Despentes of the same title. Manu and Nadine lose their last tenuous relationship with main-stream society when Manu gets raped and Nadine sees her only friend being shot. After a chance encounter, they embark on an explosive journey of sex and murder. Perhaps as a revenge against men, perhaps as a revolt against bourgeois society, but certainly in a negation - almost joyful in its senseless violence - of all the codes of a society which has excluded, raped and humiliated them. Controversial for its violence and real sex scenes: a vividly nihilist road movie set in France.
Review: This film is a Chinese variation on violent American films like DELIVERANCE and SOUTHERN COMFORT. A group of teenagers on a camping trip meet up with a group of backwoods degenerates (referred to as "disco boys" in the subtitles) who rape one of the girls (watch her brush her teeth with toilet water in the hospital) and impale one of the guys on bamboo spikes. One of the locals fingers the gang who then take revenge on the guy by getting him drunk and burying him in a shallow grave. Another guy finds him and takes violent revenge on each of these drooling idiots. This is grim and bloody stuff but frenetic enough to pinpoint this as a Hong Kong film. Having one of the gang be retarded was lifted right out of I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE. One entertaining element was the wholesale unauthorized use of early 80s American pop music by Supertramp, the Police, Styx and others.Here’s an Asian I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE type film about a girl who is raped by a gang of kick scumbags and left for dead in the woods while camping. Meanwhile, her father plots for bloody revenge and the results are pretty good. One guy is dropped into a pit of stakes!! A damn’ good film!
Review: Two women attend a party in a barn, where they meet Mr. Bradley, a strange middle-aged man with a British accent. He saves one of them from an attempted rape in a hayloft, so she introduces him to her friend Terry. After chatting a while, he leaves and drains the gas from their car. Finding their gas tank empty, Ann and Terry walk until they come to Bradley's isolated house, where he lives with his sister Myla and a servant named Freddy. It turns out that Bradley is actually an insane mortician and that he have certain plans with his guests.
Review: In a Hong Kong villa, Lyon throws a party celebrating her win at a beauty contest. Come midnight, when her schoolmates Sze-Wan and Nam leave the party to go home, their car suddently breaks down, and six men stop by and kidnap them.
Review: David Hemmings plays Juan, a man so pissed off at being cut out of his rich father's will that he begins to take it out on his own mother (Alida Valli). His anger becomes so twisted that he takes an innocent village girl (played by sultry "Daughters Of Darkness" co-star Andrea Rau) prisoner and begins to subject her to degrading tortures until she seems to become his submissive slave. However, in reality, she is planning her own revenge!
Review: Kinky psychological smut fest about a woman dominated by her sadistic, sex obsessed husband. He likes to treat her like a whore, "pretend" to rape her and threaten her by thrusting a pistol in her pussy! As much a she hates to admit it, she kind of gets off on the whole thing but she’s determined to break free of him. So, in a twisted variation of role reversal, she seduces a naive young man and gradually manipulates him into playing the part of "her" (going so far as making him wear makeup and a dress) while she takes the role of her domineering husband and treats him like her bitch! Definitely lives up to its title and worth a look.
Review: Christopher Lee is at his cruelest as notorious 17th-century British "witchfinder" Judge George Jeffreys, who used his position to persecute and torture suspected enemies of the crown as well as those accused of witchcraft, in this sordid Jess Franco tale. Maria Rohm, Maria Schell and Howard Vernon also star. Restored version includes footage not shown in U.S. theatres.
Review: While walking in the woods, young and beautiful Silvia is brutally attacked by a masked man. She is pushed to the ground, beaten. During the attempted rape she escapes her violator and flags down a passing car. She flees thinking that she has become free from further humiliation. But her driver; Claudio has different plans for this youthful beauty. Claudio, a former photographer for an Italian newspaper, has been driven mad by the images he was assigned to photograph. Delirious scenes of death, carnage and despair resonate in his fractured mind. He is obsessed with capturing images of female bodies in states of humiliation. He discharges his neuroses on hapless young models and has chosen to fill his viewfinder with sexual degradation.
Review: Closely follows the template set by Daughter Of Darkness, right down to using the same lead actors in the same or similar roles. Ng Doi-Yung & Lily Chung again play the young lovers. Ho Ka- Kui again plays the bad guy and Anthony Wong & Money Lo play lawyers instead of cops. The whole family is afraid of Wah (Ho Ka Kui), and with good reason. He threatens to kill his parents, throws his wife around violently, beats up anyone whenever he feels like it, snorts cocaine, punches his brother, sexually assaults Toh's girlfriend Jenny (Lily Chung), and even rapes his mother. And just in case you fail to pick up on this guy being a complete demonic bastard, he rams home the point by yelling almost all the time, laughing manically, and singing about drugs and sex as he indulges. Much of the story is told in staggered flashbacks during a murder trial. There is some tension early on, but this completely evaporates when it becomes clear that the deceased is the completely-evil Wah. After that, you can be assured that nobody would find guilty the tormented younger brother Toh, who stands accused. The stunningly beautiful Lily Chung has some erotic, though sometimes violent scenes. Her acting is unrestrained nicely balances the deadpan Ng Doi-Yung. An interesting and original category III film, although the violent content may offend some viewers.
Review: An abused autistic boy is the sole witness to the kidnapping of a teenage heiress. Tagline: It started as such a simple crime. For 16 year old Candy, dying would have been easier! Was a piece of Candy worth a fortune in diamonds?
Review: One of the most infamous Category III films, CHINESE TORTURE CHAMBER STORY pulls the viewer in multiple directions at once, freely mixing stomach churning sadism and over-the-top gore with exuberant softcore sex and comedy ranging from childish to incredibly bizarre. Maiden Little Cabbage is brought before the local magistrate, after she is found covered in blood beside the dead body of her husband, Got Siu-tai. The man died after consuming a kind of super aphrodisiac which caused his already immense penis to explode! Flashbacks reveal how Little Cabbage was hired to be a maid in the home of scholar Yang Ni-mu. After accidentally catching her mistress cheating on Ni-mu with the evil Lau Hoi-sing, Little Cabbage was married off to the homely Siu-tai (whose member is so huge that ejaculation could prove to be fatal to his partners!). When Hoi-sing tries to take advantage of Little Cabbage, he is severely beaten by Siu-tai, setting in motion the events that led to the present court case. Produced using sets and costumes left over from the Stephen Chiau comedy HAIL THE JUDGE, this Wong Jing production can be accused of a lot of things -- but few would call it boring. Particularly memorable is a send-up of the pottery wheel scene in Ghost, accompanied (as in the American film) by "Unchained Melody," played here on Chinese instruments (after witnessing what goes on here, you'll never be able to think of that song again without laughing and / or wincing)! Also unforgettable is a sex scene between C-III regulars Elvis Tsui and Julie Lee. Playing martial arts masters, the two engage in wild, gravity-defying sexual stances like "Invincible Mouth," "Oral Attack," "Invincible Wheel," and "Wonder Screw," with their superhuman pelvic slamming accompanied by video game-style sound FX! Obviously not for all tastes, the film can be marginally enjoyable if approached in the right frame of mind (assuming that is at all possible) but some all-too-serious misogyny, torture, and sexual violence make parts very hard to endure and negatively color the entire experience. Director Bosco Lam went on to write the original story for VIVA EROTICA, and clips from TORTURE CHAMBER appear in that film during a sequence where Leslie Cheung and Law Kar-ying go to the movies. The unrelated (and far less financially successful) CHINESE TORTURE CHAMBER STORY II followed in 1998.
Review: A pair of country thieves make friends with a general rising within the imperial army. After the general finds himself falling in love with the beautiful sister of one of the thieves (who is the fiancee of the other) he decides to do whatever it takes to get rid of the competition and have her for himself. Viewer discretion advised: this film contains extreme violence and sexual situations.
Review: CONCRETE is based on Jôji Atsumi's non-fiction novel JUUNANA-SAI: AKU NO RIREKISHO (the tagline for it, "Seventeen, Evil Resume", is a translation of the book's title). It tells the real-life story of how, in 1989, a group of male youths in Tokyo, ranging in age from 16 to 18, abducted a 17-year-old highschool girl, raped and otherwise abused her for 41 days, then murdered her. They put her corpse into a 50-gallon oil drum, filled the drum with concrete - hence the movie's title - then dumped it in a reclaimed land area.

Review: Violent and grim HK Category III film has police captain Anthony Wong on the trail of a psychotic killer. It turns out that the killer is a young woman who was abused by her family: She was picked on by her sister, her brother threatened to pimp her out for money, her mother humiliated her, and her sicko father raped her! This is a very gloomy and depressing film that contains rough scenes of violence, nudity and graphic rape so be warned!
Review: Daughter of Darkness 2 (1994) was another gruesome case involving a woman who's a sole survivor of a brutal massacre. A local constable questions the woman about her whereabouts and what might have happened the night before. As he gets the young woman to talk, she spins a tale of debauchery, madness and people so vile that you wished that they'll never see daylight again. Why is this woman so reluctant to talk? Who else might be involved in this ghastly murder? How will this bumbling cop get any solid leads or useful clues from this shell shocked woman? Too find out you need to find a copy of this Category III sex and gore fest DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS. Ivan Lai made this film to capitalize on the success of his last film DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS (1993). None of the main players from the first film appear in this one. The movie is even more depraved and vicious than the first one. If you love Category III films then you need to watch DAUGHTER OF DARKNESS 2. It'll make your stomach churn!!

Review: Jean Rollin's surreal pirate film takes place on land amidst the skeletons of beached and plundered ships, the legacy of a cutthroat band of "wreckers" who lure ships into the shallows. When a pair of survivors, young girls glowing in white nightgowns, wander through the shallows seeking help from the merry quartet, they are summarily molested, beaten, and left for dead. Like in many of Rollin's films, the story doesn't make much narrative sense--the girls escape to the haunted ruins where a woman in clown makeup cares for them and a mysterious magician gives them the power to take their revenge in return for sex--but the logic takes on a dreamlike quality appropriate to the gorgeous and bizarre imagery. In a strange tavern adorned with skeletons (and a man playing with a Dracula doll!), the Captain is haunted by visions of the girls as white-faced specters. A search for the girls amidst the rotting hulls of old ships culminates in a fiery inferno that burns spectacularly against the night sky. Meanwhile well-endowed costar Joëlle Coeur strips at the slightest suggestion, frolics and bounces on a bed, and runs around the beach topless while hunting the girls. Rollin's strange little film, a ghost story without ghosts, rambles on a little too long before it culminates in a self-destructive frenzy and ends on a sad, serene note.
Review: COOL N’ SLEAZY 1995 Category III film (This means its NC-17 or a soft X!) has a demented killer stalking, raping and killing prostitutes as he wants them to reincarnate and become better beings. I think most everyone will enjoy this one as there’s plenty of gore, mutilations, dismemberments, full-frontal nudity featuring pretty Asian girls, rape, body parts and blood spewing everywhere! The guy even keeps body parts of his victims including breasts and genitalia as souvenirs for his “Doll”! This baby also has a mean and nasty “FEEL” and atmosphere to it with dim lighting and weird visuals so this is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and is actually quite hard to find!

Review: We've seldom seen such a mixture of disturbing violence and heartrending visual poetry as in this film by Koji Wakamatsu. There is but so much you can do with the story of a woman who is kept prisoner in an apartment; where she is repeatedly humiliated, beaten and tortured by her psycho boyfriend. His sick, twisted mind is torn between tender feelings for his prisoner and the violent impulses that make him torture her.

Review: Koyu Ohara,who directed hilarious nunsploitation flick "Wet and Rope" and shocking "Zoom Up:Rape Site",made also this softcore torture film.Naomi Tani and Rei Okamoto play victims of the Japanese military's World War II Inquisition division,the Kempe.Sadistic Judge Murayama (Hirokazu Inoue)captures both and brings them to his private torture chamber for some sado-sexual humiliation."Fairy in a Cage" is a stylish S&M oriented pink with plenty of sleaze and depraved Sadean atmosphere to boost.The direction by Koyu Ohara is crisp and the acting is great."Fairy in a Cage" was followed one year later by slightly inferior and less interesting "Rope Hell".
Review: Fantasy and reality become blurred as a misogynistic, masked killer ritually stalks and kills beautiful women who he has encountered previously.
Review: Ho hum, it's not as if the first two were that good but this is a really lazy effort. It actually begins very well indeed and the credit sequence is probably the best thing in it. There are a couple of other 'interesting' scenes of course but there is far too much, so called humorous conversation among the many men who keep their clothes on. And the cardinal sin here is that after faltering and literally at one point coming to a complete stop we proceed towards a most disappointing climactic scene! This film if it deserves to be called such and not just a series of part completed scenes eases to a halt halfway through and then slowly goes downhill. Despite the supposedly surprise twist the second half is desperate stuff. That means that there is about 25 minutes of fairly sensational sumptuous naked flesh and bloody violence and the rest mundane to appalling. Did I mention the editing and the dialogue!?
Review: He’s a Hong Kong propaganda/PARANOIA film that has to be seen to be believed! A young homeless girl is raped on the streets and learns hey, she can use her body to make money so to eat. Enter a married man and truck driver. While away on a delivery, the homeless whore jumps into his truck cab and seduces him into paying her for a quickie..But he doesn’t use a condom. Later, its discovered that the women is a carrier of the AIDS virus and the man has himself checked but its too early (thus the film tries to illustrate it takes several months for HIV to be detected!) and he comes out clean..But later he gets it and it causes a lot of problems! Meanwhile, this chick is screwing everyone in town, passing on the AIDS virus and causes general mayhem. Hell, the guy’s BABY SON also contacts the AIDS virus! The film also depicts people with AIDS as rabid dogs as the girl breaks lose from a prison of all places (!!) and scratches, spits and even throws BLOOD at police officers! THIS IS A FUCKING MUST SEE exploitation film here folks! MORE shit happens but hell, I could write a book on this baby! Just watch it for yourselves as I don’t want to ruin this fine piece of Hong Kong stereotypical trash!!

Ugly, mean-spirited and, best of all, includes bonus rape footage cut from the U.S. video release.

Review: A mad doctor displays a selection of her more gruesome case studies. Starting with one family whose heads explode if they get angry and a woman whose heart explodes if she's surprised, the doctor then presents us with a man whose right half wants to kill his left. Other subjects put on display are the effects of going to a sauna if you're a man who sweats blood, the possibilities of romance between woman and zombie, and a game of one- upmanship between hospital patients.

Review: This one proves that it's all a big fake, and the myth of the Guinea Pig movies being actual snuff is not true. The girl from "Devil's Experiment" laughs while her flesh gets twisted. The guy from "He Never Dies" longs to take the latex applications off.
Review: Ardent update on, 'I Spit On Your Grave' and could easily have used a corruption of that film's alternative title and been called, 'Day of the Women'. This has all of the revenge and only mentions the male violence in passing. It might be considered a slightly less exploitative approach but I don't think so. The most repeated line in this film is, 'Shut the f*** up' and this bunch of ladies are no role models for a decent society. Basically we have beaten housewives forming a go-go club and in their spare time ridding the country of it's rapists. The poor picture quality does not help and encourages the feeling that this is just all a little too amateur in execution and conception. It's violent and gory and if just seeing foul mouthed girls with guns is enough then you'll enjoy this more than I. Brave effort nevertheless.
Review: A very weird exploitation flick. The whole film seems to centre round a group of dominating male chauvanists abusing young Japanese models after a photo shoot. After which they are butchered one by one by a mud covered nutter with a gigantic penis who lives in a wharehouse.
Review: This is a story about a pretty psychologist (Megumi Ozawa) who is raped, murdered, and dismembered while trying to avenge the suicide of a patient who was raped by a Yakuza gangster.

Review: Off the wall and violent Japanese torture type film about sadistic men who beat their wives in brutal detail! Lots of viciousness including a lesbo woman who goes down on another woman and bites a big hunk of her vagina off! You have to see this film! A definite recommendation for fans of rough Japanese shock cinema!!
Review: Howard is a mild-mannered young man who drives a truck for a commercial laundry. He's also a mother-obsessed psycho who picks up young female hitchhikers, rapes them and kills them. As the bodies start piling up, the police finally begin to investigate.
Review: Translated into English as "The House on the Edge of the Park", Casa sperduta nel parco is a morbid tale that serves as a follow up to "The Last House On The Left". The gruesome plot revolves around two sociopathic young men who own a shop. One night after attacking a girl, they crash the high-school party she was headed to. The two men take the party hostage, attacking, killing, molesting, and abusing the hormone crazed teenagers in attendance. During the course, a girl convinces one of the men to turn his ways around, a callback to Mari's unsucessful attempt in "Last house on the left".
Review: This is it: one of the most talked about cult films ever made--a maniacal masterpiece of the macabre, the martial arts, and the just plain weird. Shaw's first international star, Lo Lieh, stars as the insane swordsman who makes Chinese lamps from--yes--the skin of his enemies' sisters, mistresses, and wives! Although insanely conceived, it is beautifully filmed and unashamedly performed by a first-rate cast of sext starlets and kung fu favorites.
Review: Scientific experiments backfire and produce horrific mutations: halfman, halffish which terrorize a small fishing village by killing the men and raping the women.

Does she release the other prisoners? Does she call the police? No. Her mind snaps and she assumes control over the prisoners, taking them as her own playtoys. Naked bodies writhe in ecstasy as blood runs down the walls in this chilling tale of madness and revenge. I SPIT ON YOUR CORPSE, I PISS ON YOUR GRAVE is a swirl of insanity, a carnival of carnage, a festival of filth, and an onslaught of sleaze!
Review: The film follows Jennifer, a writer who is working on a new novel and needs to get out of the city to finish it. She hires a river side apartment to finish her novel, attracting the attention of a number of male locals. They catch Jenifer one day and strip her naked for the Village Idiot(Matthew), to rape her, he can't or won't and so one of the others does it for him. Jennifer is raped a further two times, her novel is destroyed also, she then begins to seek revenge on the men who raped her
Review: The movie starts from the first second with some pictures off what some bizarre stuff you're in for. The cooking of a woman who betrayed her husband. The hanging and cutting in 2 off a betrayer of the `Koga' clan. And who also served at that same moment to test out (on his body) some new swords. And the burning of a woman. So in other words the movie cuts to the chase from the first second. The movie then continues with the story of the `Tokugawa Sjogoen' clan, which had a severe punishment system to protect her own feudal system. As the torture they used against Christians that consists and goes up to a serious gruesome level.
Review: Injure Murder Rape Film, an extremely rare asian movie that plays out like a truly demented version of the All Night Long Series.Two maniacs go on a rape spree, brutally battering their victims with a baseball bat repeatedly before raping them and then battering them again until their vicitm is dead (hence the title of the film)... but this time they picked the wrong girl..she extracts a harrowing and bloody revenge on the people that violated her... Very violent and distressing movie from Asia that reinforces the Nihilistic messages of the all night long series and couples it with scenes of extreme and unrelenting violence. Contains violent scenes such as a double penetrated injured woman losing her guts while the guys rape her. This is the new generation of gore films from Japan. Their mixing of sex and violence to unprecedented heights.
Review: Period piece set during the Inquisition about a witch-finder general who falls in love with the village beauty, who has made a pact with the devil to seduce and condemn the man who is killing off satan's servants.
Review: Kichiku is an extremely rare piece of filmmaking: a thought-provoking film that makes its point by using the tools of the exploitation movie. A head being blown in half with a shotgun, a penis amputation, decapitation by samurai sword, rape, etc. Kazuyoshi Kumakiri doesn't shrink back from gore or violence. However, Kichiku is not about showing creative kills. It is not a collection of graphically violent acts, a freak show along the lines of an 80s slasher film. What makes it so shocking are the reasons behind the violence; the group dynamics, the miniature society of the student group that degenerates beneath the surface. A degeneration that goes unnoticed by everyone until it's too late. It is a very real danger for a society that has turned hierarchy and the group unit into an ideal.
Review: Bizarre and VICIOUS Japanese horror-type film about a psychotic woman who becomes leader of a gang of radical political terrorists/thieves and demands absolute loyalty! When some of the members try to defile her, she brutally kills and tortures them. One guy is beaten and taken to the woods. The woman blows his brains out with a shotgun, and even plays with bits of his brains! Another guy is castrated, and she even bites her boyfriend’s dick off!

The victims' parents found out that they murdered their daughter, get them drunk, and murder them in strange yet painful ways.
Review: For an hour or so, A Living Hell is a remarkable piece of work, as 28-year-old writer-director-editor-performer Shugoo sustains a jagged, hysterical mood that traces the lethal razor edge between terror and humour. The basic situation is straight from those sweat-and-blood-soaked bad dreams where we’re attacked in our homes by vicious, unstoppable, inescapable foes. This is the fate that befalls Yasuto (Hirohito Honda), a surly twentysomething confined to a wheelchair (by “anxiety”!) and thus largely trapped in the nondescript suburban house he shares with his inattentive family. It isn’t a large dwelling, and feels even more cramped than usual when a pair of distant relatives suddenly move in: elderly crone Chiyo (Shiraisihi Yoshiko?) and her apparently autistic, mute daughter Yuki (Rumi). Yasuto’s instinctive dislike of the new arrivals is soon justified, the pair wasting no time in subjecting the lad to an apparently motiveless campaign of mental and physical abuse that rapidly slides into torture…
Review: Hard to find and rough 1987 Japanese S&M trash directed by Hisayasu Sato. A demented pervert lures schoolgirls back to his place where he then ties them up and tortures them with a vibrator, which causes them to spit up blood and finally choke to death (All of which he photographs). One of his victims actually learns to like it and decides to join him on his perverse adventures by luring her schoolgirl friends back to his place where she then helps dish out the abuse! Really depraved Nikkatsu-type stuff that’s definitely worth the watch as there’s plenty of abuse, some nudity, stabbings, etc…
Review: This rare film from screenwriter Ernesto Gastaldi (who wrote the screenplays for quite a bunch of memorable Gialli such as "Perchè Quelle Strane Gocce di Sangue Sul Corpo di Jennifer?" and "Il Tuo Vizio e una Stanza Chiusa e Solo Io ne ho lo Chiave") starts like a typical revenge movie in the tradition of "Deliverance" or "Last House on the Left" (which was made a year after this one, actually). A married couple drive to a lonely house by the sea. It becomes clear very soon that the marriage has the best days behind it. After the first night, the couple gets "visited" by a motorcycle gang consisting of four men. They tie up the husband and two of the bikers rape his wife. After this, the viewer understands that two of the gang are rather philosophical characters (the leader, who is the first rapist, and his best pal), while the other two are the more clichéd violent type that do it mainly for fun. Best thing is that the raped woman falls in love with the leader of the gang. So trouble is brewing not only between the couple and the bikers, but also between husband and wife and within the gang.
Review: TF Mous' unique style of exploitation kicked off with this grim gem which centres around the unfortunate travails of a group of Chinese boat people who arrive in Hong Kong by stealth and are immediately targeted by low-level people traders. The director of the superb MEN BEHIND THE SUN and the equally downbeat BLACK SUN has a knack for legitimizing his sex and violence with politically and culturally sensitive subject matter. This Shaw Brothers production, produced in 1980, bears the admirable hallmarks of Mous' later work. The action is well staged, the set-ups are creatively photographed, and the pacing is brisk. There is a solidity and sharpness present in the work of this fine director that places him in the top ten per cent of exploitation masters. He has more in common with Japanese pinku directors such as Teruo Ishii than his Hong Kong contemporaries such as King Hu, Chang Cheh and Jimmy Wang Yu. His art is gruesome, extreme and almost fetishistic in its intensity. The "lost souls" of this cinematic bad dream are a ragged group of male and female refugees who find themselves shackled in a makeshift prison run by a bisexual warden and his rape-loving cohorts. The women, in particular, are subjected to a Marquis de Sade-approved catalog of abuse and torture. The male of the species doesn't get off lightly, either; one character is graphically sodomized with an intensity that is rare for any Hong Kong film, let alone one greenlit by Run-Run Shaw (bless his adventurous hide!). There is a surplus of lurid nudity (I'm not complaining, mind you) and much bloodshed and general nastiness. Everything is lovingly lensed in appropriately grotty locations and Mous never gets shy about his more extreme depictions or the sexualization of the abuse. In fact, it's quite clear that Mous revels in the sadistic excesses of this less-than-cheerful exercise and I, for one, respect him for it. Mous' cinema is a cinema of transgression masquerading shamelessly as social comment. One can only admire such audaciousness.
Review: A woman looks to a cop for help against her abusive husband, who constantly rapes, beats, and belittles her and her son, but the husband catches wind of the cop's plan
Review: Udo Kier is a witch hunter apprentice to Herbert Lom. He believes strongly in his mentor and the ways of the church but loses faith when he catches Lom strangling Reggie Nalder to death for calling him impotent. Kier begins to see for himself that the witch trials are nothing but a scam of the church to rob people of their land, money, and other personal belongings of value and seduce beautiful big breasted women. In the end, the towns people revolt, Herbert Lom escapes and poor Udo is tortured to death by the towns people with the his own torture devices. This film contains very strong graphic torture including a women's tongue being ripped out of her head, nuns being raped(in the opening credits), and lots of beatings.
Review: Seventeenth century "witch finder" tortures local women in Church's name. Stylishly mounted horror film is a cult favorite, though squeamish viewers should steer clear, due to extremely graphic torment scenes.
Review: In the spring of 1945, Japan established a secret base, Unit 731 in Manchuria, where many innocent Chinese, Korean and Mongolian people were killed in grotesque experiments. An idealistic young doctor , Morishima, is horrified by the experiments being performed in the camp and when his fiancée arrives disguised as a Chinese prisoner he sets out to liberate the camp. A docudrama sequel to the notorious Men Behind the Sun, which pulls no punches when it comes to delivering the shocks!
Review: It's not often you hear about the Japanese atrocities committed against the Chinese. Black Sun : The Nanking Massacre unflinchingly tells the true story of the over 300,000(that's 300,000!!!!) Chinese people who were brutally killed by the occupying Japanese army. Mixed with real film footage and photographs of the actual events, the film really shows the atrocities of war. It's mostly told from the Japanese point of view, and several conversations between Japanese commanders and soldiers are chilling. There are some exploitative gross out moments, like an unborn baby being pulled out of a pregnant woman's stomach via bayonette...but it always feels true. There are so many scenes of crowds being machine gunned down that you can be desensitized pretty early on in the film. The scary thing is, is the Japanese really WERE this barbaric. They slaughtered babies, infants, children, women, men and monks alike. The scene of hundreds of bodies being burned on the beach is a truly haunting moment. While it is an absolute must see for war film fans or historians...the film, however, is gory enough to make splatter fans happy.

It's about a reporter searching for a snuff film and she finds it.She does the 8 mm deal an ends up a victim. This film is totally fucked up and should only be viewed by sicko's."

They board an overcrowded train, but switch to another one when a bomb scare causes a delay. Thinking they are safely en route to a happy holiday, little do they know they have been followed. Joining them on their new vehicle are Blackie and Curly, a pair of psychotic criminals (who were seem in the opening credits robbing and stabbing a sidewalk Santa to death), and their nameless rich lady friend, who indulges in sexual games with Blackie at every opportunity.

Fearing she will get the same treatment, Margaret flees from the compartment and jumps to her death from a bathroom window. But the culprits will get theirs when they are taken home by Laura's parents and their heinous deeds are discovered.
Review: Nutbag is the horrifying, true-life story of a man who murders without provocation. The lonely, depraved killer stalks the neon city we call Las Vegas. Killing young women at random, there seems to be no end to his madness. Nutbag is a claustrophobic, ghastly thrill-ride that pulls no punches in its depiction of violence. Set to a haunting musical score, this shockingly gory film spins a frighteningly contemporary story of a modern day Jack the Ripper.
Review: An average man is kidnapped and imprisoned in a shabby cell for 15 years without explanation. He then is released, equipped with money, a cellphone and expensive clothes. As he strives to explain his imprisonment and get his revenge, he soon finds out that not only his kidnapper has still plans for him, but that those plans will serve as the even worse finale to 15 years of imprisonment.
Review: Extremely rare film from Renato Polselli (DELIRIO CADO, RIVELAZIONI DI UNO PSICHIATRA SUL MONDO PERVERSO DEL SESSO) that was originally made in 1973, but banned outright by the Italian censors. The original version conveys the message of "obscenity" in different ages and cultural or sub-cultural contexts, coming to the point to deny its existence. This version has been lost and will probably never be released. In 1979 he re-dubbed the soundtrack to give the censors the idea the report was trying to prove the masculine guilt, in almost all the situations the sexual degeneration of women, therefore the victim of real historical sexual violence. This pseudo-feminist version is an over-the-top film of sexual excess that leads to the charge of the cinema industry on the sexual abuse of woman for mere commercial intents. Stars Isarco Ravaioli, Mirella Rossi and Dino Strano (Dean Stratford).
Review: A shocking documentary drama in which a number of bizarre and merciless methods of torture are carried out under the law of the Tokugawa Shogunate in a most realistic way. The story centers on an antagonism between a magistrate who finds sadistic pleasure in using all kinds of ruthless torture and a police officer who despises such means. Yet in between all the the excessive violence, Oxen Split Torturing also features a tragic love story, that of the police man and a pretty farm girl... Sequel to Shogun's Joy of Torture

He begins to stalk her and enter her personal life, even waiting for her inside her home. He notices her sister, Kelly, as well (who is also a cop), and her boyfriend, Ken. After he kidnaps and rapes Kelly, Cheng decides to lure the madman by using herself as bait, and bring justice to the situation.
Review: Boasting some pretty good Rick Baker-esque special effects and Deran Serafian in a small role, this pretty lame Italian movie deserves some recognition. Cerchi gets some credit for still making gore flicks while most of the other Italian directors (Ruggero Deodato, Sergio Martino, Lamberto Bava, and Enzo G. Castellari) have moved on to lower-key TV movies. As for plankton, it's half Piranha - half The Thing, with people turninging into monsters, raping women, and causing general mayhem. The ultra-grimy, sleazy, and over-sexed feel of the film makes it easy to enjoy.
Review: Inspired by the Marquis de Sade’s “Justine,” this ultra-rare cult favorite is celluloid sleaze at its most outrageous. Poor Cecily is abused, ravaged, whipped and subjected to a relentless catalog of sexual shenanigans in this tale of 18th century depravity from director F.C. Perl. Flesh and Blood magazine found the film to be “superior period-piece sexploitation … a visual feast of heaving cleavage, outrageous wigs and bodice-ripping action.”
Review: The Best Bits: A guy bashes her skull in and drags her to the bed where she is tied down. The "star" of the video starts fucking her while a second guy saws her leg into pieces! When she finally regains consciousness, she starts screaming in agony and her tongue is viciously sliced off with a straight razor! Her arm is then chopped off, and if this isn’t enough, her stomach is sliced open and the guy starts fucking her intestines!!
Review: The story is a bit complicated, so I reduce it to the most important things. Shu Ya, a young model, gets involved with photographer Mo Hsieh Sheng , who stole a strange statue from a temple. He takes her home to take advantage of her, but both get very drunk and fall asleep. In the night, a demon (seems he emerged from the statue) appears and rapes the young woman in her sleep. The photographer falls in love with another woman (Li Ting Ting, who is the daughter of the master of the temple from where he has stolen the statue). In the meantime, the model learns that she is pregnant. Mo takes her to a dubious doctor, who performs abortions. But during the abortion, a storm with thunder and lightning turns up, and the abortion is seriously disturbed. Shu Ya decides to keep the baby, and Mo takes her to the hospital. On the ride there, the two begin a dispute about the future of the baby, and a fatal accident happens. Mo survives, but Shu Ya burns alive in the car wreck. She promises revenge. "You'll pay for what you've done!" Later in the morgue, an autopsy is carried out on the horribly burnt corpse, when suddenly (after cutting open the womb) hands snatch at the doctor and pull his face into the guts. In the ensuing struggle, his head comes off. A slimy baby is seen crawling away from the corpse, tearing out the umbilical cord. Later, very strange and terrible things happen around Mo, his girlfriend Li and the master. Mo, with the help of some priests, tries to find out the cause of the strange happenings and fights back.

Review: Rare and hard to find Hong Kong exploitation film about a young girl who becomes a prostitute after she is raped by her whore mother’s pimp boyfriend! A fine trashy film with some good ‘ol revenge at the end!! Has some cool trailers at the end as well!
Review: Advertised in some places as a sequel to NAKED KILLER, this is a much different film in style and tone but using some of the same principal cast members. NAKED KILLER had a joyful exuberance in its blackly comic tale of rival lesbian hitwomen. RAPED BY AN ANGEL is a much more grim tale of male/female relations both tender and brutal. In typical Hong Kong film fashion, the cute scenes of Yau and Yam dating are intercut with the brutality of prolonged rape in a parallel story. Like I SPIT ON YOUR GRAVE, the multitude of violent rape scenes make this a repellent film viewing experience while also being fascinating in its shameless exploitation of rape as entertainment, despite the use of comic relief to make this more acceptable to a wider audience. While never eroticized, what this ultimately does is trivializes the act. The film is undeniably effective but just don't expect another NAKED KILLER even though Chingmy Yau gets to play another tough chick character. Well cast and slickly-lensed, this is not a film to watch on a first date.
Review: A dentist obsessed with young women in various uniforms stalks two sisters. The oldest sister is romantically pursued by a thug that was just released from prison. The dentist also has the hots for her and the two paths eventually cross.
Review: Miss Kwan a writer with writer's block and her goofy cop boyfriend are being tormented by an American named Daniel who's housing two escaped rapists.

Anthony Wong also stars as a lunatic named the Human Milk Drinking Doctor. A madman who rapes lactating women. He's reformed though (through working as an projectionist in a porno theater). Wong helps the couple defeat Daniel and his co-horts.
Review: RAPEMAN (1993) (aka REIPUMAN) Dir: TAKAO NAGAISHI Only in Japan would this type of production be made - and thank God for it. Director Takao Nagaishi RAPEMAN is a strangely fun and charming super-hero/crime-film series where the hero of the films rights wrongs through penetration by offering his services to disgruntled individuals who have a good enough reason. The proceeds from Rapeman Services also serves a good cause, and goes to the orphanage that Keisuke (Rapemans alter-ego) grew up in... In this first installment of the series - we are introduced to Keisuke: mild mannered school-teacher by day - avenging angel of rape by night - and his goofy Uncle, who together run Rapeman Services. Their services are called-upon by a nightclub owner who tells a sob story about having her boyfriend, a current political candidate, stolen by his secretary, and asks Rapeman to take care of her as an act of revenge. This is done per the nightclub owners request - but we soon find that the story was just a cover to cause a bigger scandal that involves rival a seedy rival politician and the Yakuza... This film, as weird as it sounds has a strange charm about it that overrules the potentially sleazy content. The film feels much more like a main-stream TV crime series, despite the rape-content. The character of Keisuke/Rapeman is kinda like a cross between Ogami Itto (from the SHOGUN’S ASSASIN - also available from Visual-Pain) and Magnum P.I., and the production-value and acting of the film are very TV-show-like as well. The RAPEMAN series as a whole is very good and entertaining, and will be of special interest to pinku fans.
Review: A mild-mannered school teacher is secretly a superhero called Rapeman who is hired by wronged people who want to get revenge against someone through rape; in this episode, after Rapeman accepts a job to rape a snooty nurse, he discovers a secret organ traffiking ring operating inside the Hospital
Review: If you're a fan of Takao Nagaishi’s RAPEMAN series or have seen the first couple, then you'll know pretty much what to expect from part three in the series. Of course, Keisuke and Uncle are up to their old tricks of righting wrongs through penetration through the guise of Rapeman Services. The vigilante rapist is determined to live up to his credo, that when the law is powerless, I will punish the guilty - and punish he does with his own brand of justice...
Review: RAPEMAN 4 (1994) (aka REIPUMAN 4) Dir: Takao Nagaishi More RAPEMAN fun from director Takao Nagaishi for those that dig this classic series of funny/sleazy pinku films. The basic concepts of the films are the same, revolving around Keisuke and Uncle who run Rapeman Services as a means for those that have been wronged to seek retribution outside of the law through rape... This episode starts with a request for a pop-star to be raped into humility by her personal-assistant, who the star had treated like crap. The pop-star gets hers when Rapeman shows her that she aint always the boss. From there the story shifts gears when a Senators secretary seeks out Rapemans services to rape his fiancé who has been brainwashed by a local cult. According to the by-laws of the cult - if the woman has sex with a non-member, then she will be disassociated from the cult, thus bringing the wife back to her husband. This back-fires when the cult does not ex-communicate her - so Keisuke and Uncle infiltrate the cult to get to the bottom of their shady dealings. The resulting investigation embroils the duo in a conspiracy between the cult and a sleazy politician that can only be righted through penetration... Ive liked all of the films in the RAPEMAN series, and I liked RAPEMAN 4 as well. You cant go wrong with a superhero/rapist, and this one keeps to the formula of being genuinely funny and entertaining, while still maintaining a fair bit of sleaze due to the subject-matter. A great series and a solid entry - definitely worth a look to RAPEMAN series fans or pinku fans in general.
Review: Red Room is like a Japanese version of Survivor snuff style. 4 people in a red room play a twisted card game where the winner takes the loser into a cage and gets to do whatever they want to the loser while the other 2 people have to watch. The game ends when only one person is left alive.
Review: The 2nd installement of Red Room is twice as hard. This shit is damn rough for a horror movie, if you can call it a horror movie! Torture and murder make a horror film but what do you call it when perversions and grossness is added to it at Xtreme levels? Only for the seriously demented and insane.
Review: Mean-spirited Category III film. A psychotic doctor at a local mental hospital goes around raping and killing women (Not necessarily in that order!) because they were wearing red. The plot thickens when he attacks and rapes the beautiful Lo Man Lee, a patient at the hospital with the mind of a 10-year old! This sucker grabs you and doesn’t let go! Contains graphic rape scenes and nudity. One scene shows the girl in the shower washing her private parts profusely and then she tries to cut herself there! A brutal film!!
Review: A mad scientist transfers his mind to a wicked robot, which then embarks on a program of kidnaping, rape and murder, during which a female detective is killed. To fight the robot, the police woman's corpse is then made into a robotrix...

Clara is beaten, raped, starved, and locked up like an animal, filthy and naked. She is forced to write in the scrapbook, adding her agony to the pages. She soon realizes that her only hope for survival is to manipulate Leonard through her writings in his cherished scrapbook.
Review: Rb-04: Jogakusei: Harakiri starts with a pigtailed woman sitting in a traditional Japanese Sailor Moon getup. The woman sits quietly looking through a black book featuring images of ritual suicide. Obviously turned on by the images she rubs her face and body (in a ridiculous manor). We cut to her reaching for the knife, and in true Rb-01 spirit she also puts the knife away, I guess to rationalize her actions further (or to drag out the run time for another 45 minutes). When she finally disrobes her upper apparel -- being pleased with herself -- she considers “should I, or shouldn’t I”, as if to bring the viewer suspense (tedium). This time the woman wraps the knife with paper rather than a white cloth. After more waiting, she finally commits ritual suicide. Rb-04: Jogakusei: Harakiri cares not for such trivial symbolism, instead punching straight for perversion. This story’s purpose is to showcase a more prominent arousal in the character. Her purpose of committing seppuku is for sheer twisted, morbid pleasure. While Rb-01 shied away from a more gory demise, this time we bare witness to a more gruesome death. As our female character abdominally digs in, we see the stomach open and close with every slice, this time completed with the forthcoming of entrails.
Review: No one who has seen this one was prepared for its sheer brutality and were completely knocked off course for days after seeing it! It's an I Spit on your Grave style rape/revenge movie but is a hell of a lot more extreme in its depiction of rape and violence, makes I Spit on your Grave look like a romantic fairytale! definitely not for your average horror viewer! harsh, harsh, harsh! This film has absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever!
Review: Lost Paradise seems to be the most widely know and sought after seppuku film, and was in fact my first seppuku experience. Probably the main reason this particular film is so sought after in the trading circuit is due to the fact that it is directed by Masami Akita of Japan’s intense noise band, Merzbow. Not only did Akita direct this short, he also created the droning yet haunting score for the film. A female in military fatigues follows a concrete pathway and enters the building. She stops and places her foot atop a ledge. Something falls off her boot, but the scene is too dark to visualize what that something actually is. A shirtless man sits, burning an unknown material on a table top. As far as I could tell, the material does resemble whatever fell from our female soldiers boot (the significance of this to the plot, I am unsure). Merzbow noise drones on in the background and the woman starts to disrobe her military uniform. Unlike previous seppuku films from Right Brain, which force the viewer to wait endless minutes until the actual act commences, Akita wastes little time and gets straight to the knife. There isn’t any ridiculous body cuddling here. This time around Akita showcases his inner gorehound, painting the screen with flowing viscera. As the innards spill forward, so does the character’s agonizing moans of death. What differentiates Lost Paradise from others is the amount of gore. As the definition of seppuku states, one would expect a gory disembowelment followed by an excruciating death, which this film definitely delivers. This is where previous Right Brain seppuku entries fail. Lost Paradise is not a fast paced ritual suicide, but it does flow a lot better than other films of this sub-genre. The finale was the most believable of any other seppuku film I have seen, despite the fact that breathing was evident from the actress’s stomach moving, after the characters death. Another separating factor of this seppuku entry is the fact that after the woman’s demise, a male party enters the picture. You’ll have to check out this section of the Ah-03: Onna Harakiri Sakuhinshu III anthology to find out what happens.
Review: A very rare exploitation that is a must for the sleaze merchant! A psychotic madman lures young women into his home and then seduces them to later torture and hunt them down for sport through the woods! Lots of brutality here as this film was banned in the director’s own country!!
Review: Scummy, twisted, degenerate and all the better for it, this long lost X rated wonder from the good ol' year of 1970 was the brainchild of one Walt Davis. At the close of the Sixties Davis had directed several minor softcore movies, however in the early Seventies Davis developed a kink for mixing sordid sexploitation with Herschell Gordon Lewis brand of gore slaughter which manifested itself in two supremely shocking features. The other is the outlandish Evil Come, Evil Go (1972) a gruesome tale of Sister Sarah Jane Butler, who butchers `love generation men' in LA to the theme song of `Sarah Jane, Sarah Jane you're insane'. Whereas Evil Come, Evil Go cleaned up, the earlier Sex Psycho fared less well- it was simply deemed unreleasable, never showing up anywhere either on video or the cinemas. Even the efforts of the producer (Cuban born sex film pioneer Manuel S Conde) and a change of title to the more X friendly Widow Blue, all proved in vain. The Sex Psycho of the title and our hero of the piece, if he could be called that is Nick (Mike Haven- the cat burglar from Al Adamson's Brain of Blood) a pudgy faced average Joe who taunts and ridicules his sloppy wife (Sandy Demsey) over her coke-bottle glasses and natty blonde wig. A marriage made in hell, he's a sexist pig who complains about her burnt cooking, while she threatens to run back to her mothers whenever he says boo. Despite his low opinion of his wife's sex appeal, Nick is convinced that someone out there finds her attractive, especially when he overhears her talking to her lover on the phone. Enraged, Nick promptly goes out and buys a large meat cleaver, then takes to fondling it in his car with a look in his eyes that suggests he has more on his mind than cutting cake with it. Oddly his other half isn't the intended victim, instead Nick speeds over to his mistress Eva Blue, only to find Eva's bi-sexual husband Jerry Blue (played by none other than the director himself) getting under the sheets with Eva's brother Marshall. Egged on by Eva and helped by Marshall, Nick sinks the cleaver deep into Jerry's neck. Things become even more vomitious when the whacked out Eva Blue drags Nick onto the bed for some post-homicide heavy petting despite Jerry's dead body providing interruption `Don't worry about him, he's dead, dead, dead'. Dim Marshall is suitably horrified but agrees to hide the body in a big, black coffin, yet again though libidos provide a distraction. When the three Sex Psychos finally remember they have a corpse to dispose of a pair of Jerry's swinger pals Ron and Sarah show up and (only slightly fazed by the big black coffin in the middle of the room) quickly turn the place into a suburban swingers party!! Well remember this is the Seventies and only then could a scriptwriter get away with the line that comes from the ubiquitous John Holmes `we're all 21 and responsible citizens, so let's just take off our clothes and get it on right here'. Despite Holmes alarming presence, Davis reserves the freakiest moment for the completely basketcase climax that leaves Eva screaming her guts out, Nick bleeding to death holding on to a bloody stump and his wife choking to death. Not without credence is the legend that a single showing in the dawn of the Seventies had potential buyers running from the theatre as if the Blob had invaded. What distinguishes Sex Psycho from typical XXX movie house fare, sealed its commercial fate. If the extreme gore didn't get to them, the scenes with Davis and friend would have had dirty mack dwellers deeply suspicious that they had gone to the wrong theatre. Davis evidently saw allot wrong with the world, Evil Come, Evil Go takes several pot-shots at religious fanaticism while Sex Psycho sees the world behind every picket fence as a cocktail of violence, insanity and false morality. Even so for their grim storylines and messages Davis's features remain cartoonishly over the top and always on the very dark side of black humour. His Sex Psycho script is so mockingly vulgar as to bring laughs to the most morbid melodrama, also hilariously jarring is his taste in music with demented organ music and liberal uses of the theme from The French Connection and Night on Bald Mountain. A personification of the skinny, ear muff sideburned, long haired LA freak that every conservative feared, little is known about writer/ director/ erst-while Mr Jerry Blue and all round enfant terrible Walt Davis- other than the movies. Soon after getting Sex Psycho and Evil Come, Evil Go out of his system Davis wrote his way into obscurity, his last known credit was a script for Deep Jaws a film made in 76 by Manuel Conde. Today Sex Psycho is best viewed as the black sheep never invitied even to the table of the most extreme films from America's most extreme era and most extreme medium. Too much for audiences of the day, its still not for everyone but if you're looking for something unique, especially outrageous and with the explicit sex and death that comes with Seventies excess then Walt Davis is your man.

Review: Teruo Ishii's extremely provocative movie set in the 1600 in feudal Japan. 3 short stories dealing with punishment and torture. The first deals with incest where a woman is beaten and tortured to death for having an affair with her dying brother. The second is about lesbian nuns and the third story shows a crazy tattoo artist who kidnaps a woman to use as his canvas. Even though this movie is over 35 years old, the effects and the gore are amazing! Humans burned at barbeques, decapitations and more torture than you could possibly wish for makes this classic videonasty a must have for all fans of good and gory movies!

Satan and the biker chicks shoot the film director and then surround the bed where the pregnant woman cowers in fear. They plunge a dagger into her belly. After the dagger comes down the camera pulls back and the audience sees the film crew and the director talking about the final scene. A young woman on the crew tells the director that the stabbing scene turned her on. The director asks her if she would like to act out her fantasies. She complies and gets into bed with him. The filming doesn't stop and she tries to protest to it. She tries to pull away from the director. He picks up the blood-spattered dagger, looks into the camera and says: "You want to get a good scene?"...

Review: "Subconscious Cruelty" has to be one of the most beautiful films I have ever seen.Still it's extremely grim and gory at times,so fans of politically correct mainstream horror garbage shouldn't bother.The film mixes many wonderful visuals with plenty of sleaze and gore.It is extremely odd,vicious and disturbing,so fans of bizarre cinema won't be disappointed. My favourite segment from "Subconscious Cruelty" is "Human Larvae" which shows us a twisted relationship between a young man and his pregnant sister.The birthing scene is particularly nasty and not easily forgotten.The last segment "Right Brain/Martyrdom" has to be seen to be believed.It's incredibly harsh and blasphemous with scenes of genital mutilation and grisly torture.We see Jesus Christ captured by three naked females who mutilate him,ripping flesh from his chest,licking a wound on his knee and pissing on him.There is also a Jesus statue with a projection of a swastika on it."Subconscious Cruelty" is a truly memorable film that should be seen by fans of extreme cinema.Check it out.

Review: This wild Category III flick was shot back-to-back with HUMAN PORK CHOP and is basically the same exact story with a few exceptions. A young woman gets into an argument with her husband and goes to live with a friend. While there, this chick proceeds to steal some money from her so-called friends and they go after her. When she can’t pay it back, they take her hostage (After beating the living shit out of her several times!) while awaiting her welfare check. In the meantime, they brutally beat her, burn her and even piss on her and force her to eat shit! She dies from the abuse (There’s a few funny lines where the people keep asking her “Why did you die so easily?”) and in a state of panic they throw her in the tub, drain her blood, chop her up into pieces and make soup with her remains! There’s some humorous censoring of items like clothing labels and stuffed toys (I guess these people don’t want to get sued by Levi’s or something!!) and a few scenes look as if they were edited wrong but there’s a LOT of full frontal nudity, wild gore and abuse so this more than makes up for the censoring (Again, its funny!!).
Review: Frigga lives with her parents on their farm. Unable to speak after being horrifically raped by an elderly man when she was young, her parents spend the majority of their money on speech therapy classes for their daughter in the hope that one day, she will speak again. One day, Frigga misses the bus to get to her speech therapy class. She accepts a ride off a suave looking gentlemen named Tony who pulls up beside her. Once they are in town, he takes her for a meal. Afterwards, he takes Frigga back to what appears to be his bachelor pad. He gives her wine that has probably been drugged, as she passes out after drinking it. The man then takes no time in bringing a crooked doctor in to get her fixed on high class heroin. After announcing to Frigga that she is now dependent on heroin and cannot last more than 48 hours without it, she must work as a prostitute for him. Frigga, obviously not thrilled by this news, attempts escape twice, but to no avail. On getting her very first client, she reacts by scratching down his face. Tony punishes her for this by removing an eye (the infamous supposed cadaver eye scene). Having found out that Tony sent a fake letter to her parents announcing in it that she hates her parents, Frigga makes her way home one Monday (her day off) only to discover that they have both apparently suicided from the lost of their only daughter. After this and the death of her friend and fellow prostitute Sally, Frigga seeks revenge on those who have wronged her, namely Tony and her clients. She spends her Mondays learning martial arts, buggy driving and shooting in order to suitably equip herself to take on the villians in her life. One of the blueprints as to why Tarantino's Kill Bill films exist, this film is an essential in the femme fatale revenge genre.
Review: The city is shocked to hear the news that real estate mogul Joe's wife has killed a private investigator and commited suicide. Paparazzi reporter Yuki solicits help from her friend Ting Ting, who works at Joe's company. But Ting ends up being hypnotized into sex slavery under Joe and winds up committing suicide. Devastated by Ting's death, Yuki decides to take revenge on Joe by joining his company and posing as an innocently sexy girl to entrap him.
Review: For a short film this really packs a wollop..Plain and simple..This movie is sick....Not sure if it's the hypo needles she stuffs in the head of the guys penis or the blow torch she uses on his balls but if you can sit through this shit without wincing you have earned my respect.
Review: Ming Dynasty. Young Ngai planned to castrate himself to enter the palace for richness and fame. On his way, Ngai was attracted by Han, a showgirl from a sex torture show. They then ran away from Sun the eunuch, Ngai's introducer, who meant to buy Han for sexual torture until death.

Review: An insane satire on the entire HK Category III genre starring Anthony Wong. His wife in deep in debt and she goes to a loan shark, the Underground Banker. Her finances get worse and worse with no way to pay the banker. She is raped, beaten, forced into prostitution, and even gang raped on video. Wong eventually finds out about her situation and goes to the banker to plead his wife’s case...only to be humiliated and so he refuses to pay up!

Yes, the one and only serial killer! But this time, Dr. Lamb is the hero!!!! COOL!!! This time ‘round, Lamb is played by Lawrence Ng! Yes sir, this is a damn’ fine sleazy and violent flick with plenty of sex, nudity, and gore! Also stars Elizabeth Lee.
Review: Another trashy rape and revenge story about a nurse who is brutally raped and takes vengeance into her own hand. She kills the rapists in a numbers of gory ways. Has a great ending!!
Review: A Los Angeles businesswoman, known only by her street name of Princess, turns to prostitution to support herself and her young daughter when she's forced by Detective Tom Walsh and his vice squad to help them arrest a brutal pimp named Ramrod for the murder of a prostitute named Ginger. But when Ramrod learns that he was set up, he escapes from police custody and begins a long night of tracking down Princess while Walsh and his vice squad are always one step behind him.
Review: The uncut version, which has rarely been seen outside of Germany. This version has all of the "expulsion" scenes intact, missing from all of the other versions. This film, alongside Forced Entry and Unwilling Lovers, is the best example of what was great about the Grindhouse scene in the 70's. Gritty, realistic, violent....and oddly erotic. See Jamie Gillis do what he does best....be a pervert. Not For The Squeamish. This version comes from a VHS source with hardcoded GERMAN subtitles. *** For all out grimy sleaze I can't recomend this one highly enough....The dialogue alone makes the movie worth it :D ----Dxa
Review: Queen of Japanese erotica Naomi Tani plays a wife who charges her husband with sexual battery. He escapes from the police and goes into hiding. Three years pass, she divorces him and tries to put the pieces of her life back in order when suddenly he returns. Obsessed with rage and hatred, he kidnaps her and brings her to a house in remote wooded area. There he disciplines her vehemently, subjecting her to increasingly shocking forms of sexual torture, tetherings, suspensions and humiliations. Astonishingly, through the rage and lust, the pair develop a relationship that pushes the boundaries of lurid passions and perverse obsessions. Masaru Konuma directs this landmark 'Pink' film from legendary Nikkatsu Studios in Japan. This film paved the way for a new sub-genre of S&M Pink films, and stars the 'Queen of Japanese erotica' Naomi Tani. In this wildly over-the-top softcore S&M drama Kunishada (Nagatoshi Sakamoto), an unabashed pervert, happens upon his kimono-clad ex-wife, Akiko (Naomi Tani), kidnaps her, and drags her to a secluded old house up in the mountains. At first he merely ties her up and humiliates her, but after she cuts him with a razor the real horror show begins. Soon Akiko finds herself tied up in a variety of exotic knots and covered in hot wax. Later, after an escape attempt ends in Akiko being raped by two darkhearted hunters, she awakens sexually and starts to enjoy her debasement. Also starring the unforgettable Terumi Azuma as a young woman kidnapped after a failed suicide attempt.
Review: The film is about two girls who are on their way home but after taking a shortcut their car brakes down. They end up asking a bunch of dope-smoking hippies for help but end up getting raped in every sexual position imaginable for nearly 20 minutes of the running time! After the all the hippies have had their way they leave them to themselves. So they decide to wander off and look for help. However they stumble upon a crazy cult of yet more evil people who want to "reduce them to sexual beasts" before killing them. All this time a police investigation is on its way, triggered by the anxious father of one of the girls. And there is even a completely unnecessary and unrelated side-story about two villains who want to smuggle a drugged girl across the Mexican border to sell her to a brothel - but not before raping her themselves ...
Review: Yakuza's Law is one of the most extreme and thoughest Japanese gangster film ever made. In three stories you will get to know the laws of these Asian mobsters, and the ways of punishment that are inflicted upon those who break them. One shouldn't fool around with married women and he who can't keep a secret will meet a dark fate…
Review: This collection of brain-fried French vignettes was too weird and pretentious for any U.S. distributors, so few people in on this side of the Atlantic have heard of it, or the seven-pack of directors who contributed their demented wares, including Yann Piquer, Jean-Marie Maddeddu, Anita Assal, John Hudson, Barthelemy Bompard, Alain Robak, and Philippe Dorison. It's a mixed bag, but by cramming a dozen shorts into only 73 minutes, the filmmakers do their best to keep our attention from wandering. Several of the entries share a common, paranoid theme, with the environment and/or inanimate objects suddenly going berserk. A woman panics when her apartment ceiling descends on her; a car drives its 'owner' around under its own power; and a surveillance camera rips itself loose from the wall. All of these are amusing, but slight...Things pick up with "Corridor," by Robak, who later directed the wonderfully twisted BABY BLOOD (hacked of its sanguinary spillage and released in the US as THE EVIL WITHIN). In this, a potential buyer checks out a house and is dropped into a life-threatening endurance test--hanging from ropes and dodging knives, razor blades and a flat iron. Also worth a mention is Assal & Hudson's "T.V. Buster," in which a married pair of couch potatoes become the abused subjects of every show they watch, and call in a TV exorcist. By far, the oddest (and best) of the lot are from Piqeur & Maddeddu's happily sick sense of humor--whether it's with a shut-in who covers his apartment walls with mutilated flies, or a man who's hung on a wall and interrogated, as pieces of his body are chopped away. A fave is their "Sculpture Physique," featuring a man who allows himself to be beaten repeatedly about the face in the name of art. The silliest, most pointless idea is to have each segment bookended by stark, b&w footage panning across an endless line of blind persons. (Huh?) Little dialogue is spoken throughout, and though never very gory, that's because the filmmakers are more interested in their own brand of tripped-out, arthouse-fantasy psychedelia. Considering some of the turnabout/twist endings, this often feels like a Frogland spin-off of Rod Serling's NIGHT GALLERY. In 1994, Piquer, Robak, Assal and Hudson reunited for a five-part, feature-length anthology entitled PARANO, N'AYEZ PAS PEUR D'EN RIRE, once again tackling the subject of paranoia.
Review: Just when I thought I'd run out of Alexandro Jodorowsky films to fawn over (psychedelic mindbenders EL TOPO and THE HOLY MOUNTAIN, as well as debacles like TUSK and THE RAINBOW THIEF), I locate a copy of his earliest feature. (Actually, the guy's first film is lost, according to all sources. Based on "The Severed Heads" by Thomas Mann, it was a fable done in mime, and even Jodorowsky doesn't have a copy.) This definitely shows what was to come from this unorthodox, inconsistent genius. Based on Fernando Arrabal's play (which Jodorowsky had previously directed on stage), the flick was castrated by its distributors, Cannon Films, after causing a fracas at the Acapulco Film Festival for being too "corrupting"...Working with no budget to speak of, and filmed on weekends, the production reeks with Bunuel influenced surrealism and pretensions. Sergio Klainer and Diana Mariscal star as the title characters, a young couple in search of the enchanted city of Tar, where ecstasy can (supposedly) be found. Fando is impotent, Lis is paralyzed, and together they travel across a rocky landscape (with the bleach blonde Lis wheeled along or carried), equipped with their only possessions, a drum and an old fashioned phonograph. Basically, it's a road movie that takes these holy innocents nowhere, as they encounter bizarre characters, experience childhood flashbacks, play cruel jokes on each other, and sit on rocks, rambling banalities. They argue, they split up (Fando runs off and Lis sits there bawling), they get back together, and when Fando gets sick of her whining, he drags Lis around by the feet. Sure, there are plenty of striking images along the way (i.e. a musician sits amidst urban rubble, playing a flaming piano), but the first half of this flick is an incoherent, maddeningly edited mess that makes even Fellini's most indulgent work look coherent. It's not until Jodorowsky ups the tripped-out absurdity that the movie begins to hit you on a gut level. Such as when Fando is whipped by a bikinied torturess and eyed by some horny transvestites, or encounters vampires drinking snifters of blood (as an additional note, Jodorowsky said that all on-screen blood was real). And what other director would keep a straight face while live pigs are being pulled from Lis' vagina? (Yeah, you read that correctly.) Or when supporting characters crawl into their own graves to perish, politely thanking the grave digger as he covers 'em up? But if Jodorowsky wanted the title characters to be enchanting kids, fouled by society's ills, he failed. Because though his vision is charmingly morbid and scattered with unintentional laughs, the leads are dead weight. Along the way, I realized I didn't care about either of 'em or their heavyhanded quest. It's dense going for Jodorowsky amateurs, yet a field day for fans of murky, symbolic baloney.
Review: A Christlike figure wanders through bizarre, grotesque scenarios filled with religious and sacrilegious imagery. He meets a mystical guide who introduces him to seven wealthy and powerful individuals, each representing a planet in the solar system. These seven, along with the protagonist, the guide and the guide's assistant, divest themselves of their worldly goods and form a group of nine who will seek out the Holy Mountain, in order to displace the gods who live there and become immortal.
Review: A young man is confined in a mental hospital. Through a flashback we see that he was traumatized as a child, when he and his family were circus performers: he saw his father cut off the arms of his mother, a religious fanatic and leader of the heretical church of Santa Sangre ("Holy Blood"), and then commit suicide. Back in the present, he escapes and rejoins his surviving and armless mother. Against his will, he "becomes her arms" and the two undertake a grisly campaign of murder and revenge.
Review: Shot sometime between 1953 and 1959, this is a film of a mime adaptation of Thomas Mann's play "The Transposed Heads." A short mime adaptation of a Thomas Mann story about a Parisian urchin who makes her living selling human heads.
Review: After a nuclear apocalypse, the whole landscape is a desert ruin, except for a small island paradise where El Topo is buried. Thought visible and seemingly accessible, every attempt to enter this island has resulted in disaster. El Topo´s sons, Cain and Abel, were separated as boys because El Topo predicted that Cain would kill Abel. But when evil marauders steal their mothers´s body in an attempt to trick their way into the island, the brothers join forces to deliver their dead mother to be buried with their father. Not only must they overcome an enemy adept at technological witchery, they must overcome the curse that marks their destiny.
Review: The gunfighter El Topo ("The Mole") and his young son ride through a desert to a village, whose inhabitants have been massacred. Bandits are nearby, torturing and killing the survivors. El Topo rescues a woman (Mara), who leads him on a mission to find and defeat the four master gunmen of the desert. Leaving his son with a group of monks, El Topo and Mara complete the mission, accompanied by a mysterious woman in black. The women leave El Topo wounded in the desert, where he is found by a clan of deformed people who take him to the remote cavern where they live. Awakening years later, he goes with a dwarf woman to a nearby town, promising to dig a tunnel through which the cave-dwellers can escape. They find the town run by a vicious sheriff and home to a bizarre religious cult. El Topo's son, now a man, is a monk in the town. The completion of the tunnel leads El Topo, the townspeople, and the cave-dwellers to a bloody and tragic end.
Review: Film director, artist, and photographer. He was born in 1961 in Leningrad . He was one of the leaders of the "Parallel Cinematography" movement in the 1980s. In 1984 he founded an independent film studio "Mzhalalafilm" and led the group of young vanguard authors who called themselves necrorealists. This movement included literature, photography and paintings as well as cinematography. It was characterized by spontaneity and the poignancy of man's primitive initiation rituals and simple merry rowdiness. In spite of the threatening name, necrorealism is an art form that does not inspire fear. On the contrary, it is an art form that abolishes social taboos and takes the civilized consciousness into the sphere of liberated instincts.
Review: Leger and Murphy used magic and early optical illusions, such as looping segments and split screens. The repetitive movements of the steel machines, match those of the live action people doing work, or even the comical puppet like figure that dances across the screen to create a mechanical ballet. Be it mechanical movements of humans, or mechanical movements of machines. Something tells me I should make a parallel between the man-machine imagery and the 70's electronic German godfathers, Kraftwerk. It's the Europeans I tell ya...they bring us all the best art as entertainment. Every image, from the smiling girl, to the numbered cards all serve a purpose in the grande scheme of Ballet Mecanique
Review: The year is 1999 and a strange virus hits the nation of Taiwan and creates panic throughout the population. The strange thing about this virus is that it effects the nervous system of its victims and causes them to actually believe they are cockroaches! In an attempt to contain the virus, the government quarantines the nation and on New Year’s Eve 1999 will turn off all water supply! Words really cannot describe this surreal and pessimistic film. Add to this the fact that running water is heard throughout the ENTIRE FILM and you’re ready for a great Chinese torture film
Review: DREAMWOOD is James Broughton's major work to date. It is a modern day spiritual odyssey in which a man is mysteriously compelled to leave his home and embark on a voyage to a strange and magical island. On the island he faces the most improbable and intense experiences of his life, ranging from total humiliation to a deep sense of oneness with the forces of life. Heroic in concept, subtle in execution, DREAMWOOD is a beautiful film by a true master of the medium

Review: Group of shocking Music-videos linked by interviews with bandmembers of this Black Metal group with Guest appearances by a beloved TV Horror Hosts. Film works as a feature length introduction to the Underground world that influences this particular music movement and showcases moments of intense performance by the band. The videos reflect the genius of Indie Wunderkind, Jim Van Bebber whose long awaited fature CHARLIES FAMILY (AKA: THE MANSON FAMILY) is finally seeing the light of day in British theaters, soon to follow in the USA. Van Bebber's characteristic frenetic cuts, neo-primitive animation and deconstructive look at Pop Culture make this worth watching even if the music ain't your thing.
Review: One of the official videos that could not be included in this collection was "Worlock." "Worlock" consists of gory scenes (some of them censored from their original films) from over fifty horror movies, making it virtually impossible to secure rights and clearances for the whole thing.The movies featured in the "Worlock" video: Altered States, Bad Taste, The Beyond, Combat Shock, Dead And Buried, Death Warmed Up, Deep Red, Demons, Eraserhead, From Beyond, Hellbound: Hellraiser II, Henry: Portrait Of A Serial Killer, Intruder, Luther The Geek, Maniac 2, Opera, Parents, Phenomena, Re-Animator, Suspiria, Tenebrae and Videodrome
Review: Director José Mojica Marins' biggest box-office film ever: Three young men make a wager on which one is able to have sex with more partners in a 24-hour period. They take several women to a beach house where the contest takes place.
Review: After seeing the film '24 Horas de Sexo Explícito', a psychologist hires the same crew to make a new movie, doubling the time - an orgy which would last for 48 hours, to further her research on sex. But in the middle of the shooting, the actors realize they are being used in a new kind of special treatment.
Review: Psychiatrist experiments LSD on 4 volunteers, to investigate Coffin Joe's influence over them. Each patient presents a different reaction, involving sex, perversion and sadism
Review: José Mojica Marins, a director of horror films about the diabolical Coffin Joe, is spending Christmas with friends. Household members go violently mad for no reason: first grandpa, then the hosts' daughters, one of whom, Vilma, is about to get married. Mojica discovers that Vilma's mother made a pact with a witch in order to become pregnant with Vilma, promising this first-born child to Satan; her impending marriage to a human is stirring up things supernatural. It what seems like a dream, Mojica enters a bacchanal in which an entranced Vilma is about to wed to Satan's son; the master of ceremonies is none other than Coffin Joe. Can Mojica defeat his own creation and save Vilma?
Review: A self indulgent, autobiographical docu-drama that chronicles the filmmaker's "struggle" with narrow minded authorities, critics, and personal tragedy.
Review: Dr. Franklin, a dangerous charlatan escapes after his fraudulent credentials are exposed and ends up in Brasília, Brazil's capital, where he opens a sex clinic for politicians and celebrities. He gives them a drug that increases their sexual drive and soon the clinic is the site of wild orgies.
Review: José Mojica Marins's first hardcore film: Two Chemistry students, unlucky with women, develop a formula that turns them into crazed rapists. But they eventually discover that they are in love with each other!
Review: This movie is basically a vehicle for recycling footage from the eccentric pantheon of Brazil's premier horror filmmaker Jose Mojica Marins, whose own persona often melds with that of his popular alter-ego "Coffin Joe". Clips are culled from the trademark surreal nightmare sequences favored by Marins in such films as Esta Noite Encarnarei No Teu Cadaver (Tonight I'll Be Incarnated in Your Corpse), Ritual dos Sadicos (Ritual of the Maniacs) and Exorcismo Negro (Black Exorcism). These grotesque, hallucinatory set pieces are depicted as the nightmares plaguing psychologist Dr. Hamilton (Jorge Peres), who is haunted by the character of Coffin Joe. In an effort to stop the dreams, Hamilton seeks the aid of Joe's creator (Marins, as himself), who tries to convince him that Joe is not an actual demon but a flamboyant character he intends to lampoon in his latest film.
Review: "Hellish Flesh" is not an Coffin Joe entry but an average horror tale of revenge. A scientist (Marins) gets his face destroyed with acid by his young cheating wife. She then spends his money on a playboy/lover, meanwhile Marins is lurking around them with a scarred face. The end has nice twist but like "Perversion" it's too straightforward compared to his unique surreal Coffin Joe epics. The print from Something Weird Video is pretty worn but it's properly the only way to get this rare film. Only for fans of this Brazilian genius.
Review: A prominent millionaire gets a woman drunk and rapes her, biting off her nipple in the process. Because of his influence and powerful lawyer, though, he is able to beat the rap, claiming the woman was trying to extort money from him. He continues his life of debauchery, using women and flaunting his power until he meets a new woman, who won't let him have his way with her, but wants to be his friend. Falling madly in love with her, he cleans up his act and devotes his attentions to her, not realizing that she has a hidden agenda.
Review: A very chilling movie, which starts with a crazy and surrealist dance, where naked women dance all over, and old men scream towards the sky. Then a coffin has dragged open, and a man (Coffin Joe?) is broad back to life. Then the story goes to an eerie hostel, where all kinds of men come in one stormy night. Coffin Joe tells the visitors some very strange stuff like "All thats nothing will be everything" (???!). The moody story ends up in a knockdown-ending, but the story still continues veery eerie for its last a couple of minutes. Lots of violence, and corny nudity, its normaly regarded as pure exploitation trash. But if you look it, in another way, its a masterpiece of eerie horror-movies.
Review: A triptych explores the dark side. In "The Dollmaker," when four tough guys set out to rob a dollmaker, they're sidetracked by his beautiful daughters. While assaulting the women, they discover how the dollmaker gets such life-like eyes in his dolls. In "Obsession," a lame and destitute balloon man falls in love from afar. When this young woman is murdered, he visits her crypt clutching a pair of her shoes - to dress or undress her? In "Theory," Professor Oaxiac Odez invites a journalist and his wife to see evidence of the professor's theory that instinct is more powerful than reason. He locks up his guests for a week of deprivation to see if love can overcome all.
Review: The first documentary on José Mojica Marins's (the legendary Zé do Caixão or Coffin Joe) life and work. The film tells Mojica's history, from his poor childhood in Vila Anastácio, São Paulo (Brazil), until his success abroad in the '90s.
Review: Stark naked man comes out from the sea and begins to walk the streets, interfering in daily episodes, always in search of justice. He names himself Finis Hominis (The End of Man, in latin), and soon becomes sort of a modern Messiah, capable of performing miracles. An adulterous woman and a cheated husband are among his most faithful followers, as well as a group of hippies.
Review: Coffin Joe is still looking for the perfect woman to give birth to a son of his, and, cleared of the past crimes in the first film (At Midnight I'll Take Your Soul), keeps terrorizing the people in his small town with his iconoclast and sadistic practices.
Review: This movie is in an elite class. There are only a handful like this one... Alexandro Jodorowsky's Holy Mountain comes immediately to mind, as well as underground hits like Japan's DEATH POWDER (by Shigeru Izumiya) and Godfrey Reggio's KOYAANISQATSI — LIFE OUT OF BALANCE. A horrific fantasy based loosely on the Adam and Eve mythos, the Oedipus tale and heavy doses of Zen philosophy. In tandem, this heady brew of religious symbolism is seasoned with huge helpings of gratuitous nudity and excessive gore.The narrative deals with male loner Han, hiding inside an urban hotel room, plagued by hallucinations of twelve beautiful (naked) nymphs coupled with images of nuclear annihilation. Seemingly, he is despondent because he's lost track of his perfect soul-mate, Mago.Through a series of illusions,he learns that the 12 beauties are, in fact, slivers of his lost love, split from "Earth Mother Mago" after humanity turned ugly and parasitic. Further, some of these 12 spirits are raped and abused by male predators, causing the remaining ones to retaliate against the human race. Han — anxious to end the mayhem and regain union with his Mago — travels to a time before his birth where he learns the dark secret harbored in his subconcious.SPECIAL NOTE: There are some very disturbing scenes showing live animals being slaughtered.
Review: A collection of confrontational, outsider cinema from Nick Zedd, one of the foremost proponents of transgressive filmmaking. This volume covers nearly twenty years of defiant, underground movies: Police State (1987), The Bogus Man (1980), Thrust in Me (1984), The Wild World of Lydia Lunch (1983), Kiss Me Goodbye (1986), Go to Hell (1986), Ecstacy in Entropy (1999), Why Do You Exist? (1998), Whoregasm (1988), War Is Menstrual Envy (1990-92), and Tom Thumb in the Land of Giants (1999).
Review: Zedd does is again , this short is based upon the idea the the president of america is a clone..a Bogus Man. A ski-masked narrator tells us of the diabolical plot and shows us footage of the presidents fingers being cut off by his kidnappers and a strange naked woman who waves her bung hole at the camera while doing a twisted bump and grind. Not much can be said except watch it, friends of mine found this short more disturbing than "fingered" and "thrust in me", check it out.
Review: A mad scientist, Dr. Frankenberry, and his manservant, Gecko, concoct the two-headed Formaldehyde Man as a vampire mob led by the skanky Scumbelina lurks beneath their castle.
Review: The 'plot' is about some punk chickie (Ms Death) who is the singer of some band but I can't remember their name. Her brother is a transvestite who does nasty things with the family dog. Then there's some cloning/end of the world type subplot thing with giant insects. The editing is awful (I thought mine was bad but now I feel better) and some of the film was shot using the wrong speed. The sets and atmosphere are wonderful and the opening sequence is masterful. There are some great still-shots and televangelist stock footage. This movie could never be made today (like TAXI DRIVER) 'cause New York is nice and clean now.
Review: The film chronicals a series of operations performed on Orlan, a French woman intent on completely changing her appearance. These operations however, are not an attempt to change her apperance for purposes of beauty, but is instead an attempt to change her appearance to what beauty was considered at different points in history. Through this she attempts to show how she can manipulate and change the body through science and technology.
Review: Pasolini's first film is a painfully realistic study of a pimp in Rome. Vittorio Accattone has never worked a day in his life, and has apparently made a good living prostituting his female companion, Maddalena. But her arrest begins his decline; hungry, he begs from churches and even visits his estranged wife and son. When Stella, a lovely and unbelievably innocent peasant worker, enters his life, Accattone tries to find a way, honest or not, to bring back good fortune...
Review: Microphone in hand, Pier Paolo Pasolini asks Italians to talk about sex: he asks children where babies come from, young and old women if they are men's equals, men and women if a woman's virginity matters, how they view homosexuals, how sex and honor connect, if divorce should be legal, and if they support closing the brothels (the Merlina Act). He periodically checks in with Alberto Moravia and Cesare Musatti. Bersani is intrusive and judgemental, prodding those who answer. The film's thesis: despite the booming post-war economy, Italians' attitudes toward sex are either rigidly Medieval (the poor and the South) or muddled and self-censoring (the bourgeoisie and the North).
Review: An adaptation of nine stories from Bocaccio's "Decameron": A young Sicilian is swindled twice, but ends up rich; a man poses as a deaf-mute in a convent of curious nuns; a woman must hide her lover when her husband comes home early; a scoundrel fools a priest on his deathbed; three brothers take revenge on their sister's lover; a young girl sleeps on the roof to meet her boyfriend at night; a group of painters wait for inspiration; a crafty priest attempts to seduce his friend's wife; and two friends make a pact to find out what happen= s after death. Pasolini is up to his old tricks satirizing the Church, and throwing in liberal doses of life and love.
Review: In this film inspired by the ancient erotic and mysterious tales of the Middle East, the main story concerns an innocent young man who comes to fall in love with a slave who selected him as her master. After his foolish error causes their separation, he travels in search of her. Various other travelers who recount their own tragic and romantic experiences include stories of a young man who becomes enraptured by a mysterious woman on his wedding day, and a man who is determined to free a woman from a demon.
Review: In Pasolini's 'Curd Cheese' ('La Ricotta'), a lavish film about the life of Jesus Christ is being made in a poor area. The impoverished people subject themselves to various indignities in the name of moviemaking in order to win a little food. The central character is hoisted up on a cross for filming, and dies there

Review: In pre-war Italy, a young couple have a baby boy. The father, however, is jealous of his son - and the scene moves to antiquity, where the baby is taken into the desert to be killed. He is rescued, given the name Edipo (Oedipus), and brought up by the King and Queen of Corinth as their son. One day an oracle informs Edipo that he is destined to kill his father and marry his mother. Horrified, he flees Corinth and his supposed parents - only to get into a fight and kill an older man on the road...
Review: Two dramatic stories. In an undeterminated past, a young cannibal (who killed his own father) is condemned to be torn to pieces by some wild beasts. In the second story, Julius, the young son of a post-war German industrialist, is on the way to lie down with his farm's pigs, because he doesn't like human relationships. Tagline: I killed my father, I ate human flesh, and I quiver with joy.
Review: "La Rabbia" employs documentary footage (from the 1950's) and accompanying commentary to attempt to answer the existential question, Why are our lives characterized by discontent, anguish, and fear? The film is in two completely separate parts, and the directors of these respective sections, left-wing Pier Paolo Pasolini and conservative Giovanni Guareschi, offer the viewer contrasting analyses of and prescriptions for modern society. Part I, by Pasolini, is a denunciation of the offenses of Western culture, particularly those against colonized Africa. It is at the same time a chronicle of the liberation and independence of the former African colonies, portraying these peoples as the new protagonists of the world stage, holding up Marxism as their "salvation," and suggesting that their "innocent ferocity" will be the new religion of the era. Guareschi's part, by contrast, constitutes a defense of Western civilization and a word of hope, couched in traditional Christian terms, for man's future.
Review: Set in the Nazi-controlled, northern Italian state of Salo in 1944, four dignitaries round up sixteen perfect specimens of youth and take them together with guards, servants and studs to a palace near Marzabotto. In addition, there are four middle-aged women: three of whom recount arousing stories whilst the fourth accompanies on the piano. The story is largely taken up with their recounting the stories of Dante and De Sade: the Circle of Manias, the Circle of Shit and the Circle of Blood. Following this, the youths are executed whilst each libertine takes his turn as voyeur
Review: Tagline: There are only 923 words spoken in "Teorema" - but it says everything! A strange visitor in a wealthy family. He seduces the maid, the son, the mother, the daughter and finally the father before leaving a few days after. After he's gone, none of them can continue living as they did. Who was that visitor ? Could he be God ?
Review: Along a rocky, barren coastline, Jesus begins teaching, primarily using parables. He attracts disciples; he's stern, brusque, and demanding. He comes to bring a sword, not peace, he says. He's in a hurry, moving from place to place near the Sea of Galilee, sometimes attracting a multitude, sometimes being driven away. His parables often take on the powers that be, so he and his teachings come to the attention of the Pharisees, the chief priests, and elders. They conspire to have him arrested, beaten, tried, and crucified, just as he prophesied to his followers. After he dies, he appears to his disciples and gives them final instructions. Pasolini shows Christ as a marxist avant-la-lettre and therefore uses half of the text of Matthew.
Review: Tagline: An off-beat comedy about serious matters by PIER PAOLO PASOLINI. On an empty road, an old man is walking with his son. They meet a crow that can speak. They are changed into monks and Saint Francois sent them to preach for hawks and sparrows. A reflexion about idealism.
Review: Directed by Japanese underground legend Yoshihiko Matsui, most famous for his epic film Noisy Requiem, and his early work with maverick Japanese director Sogo Ishii (Gojoe, Crazy Thunder Road), Pig Chicken Suicide is a veritable assault on the senses, mixing violent images of animal slaughter, racial strife and surrealism to tell the story of 2 Koreans living in Japan, whose love is destroyed due to overwhelming racial discrimination .
Review: The end result of all of this is an hour and a half of brain melting stupidity and senseless sleaze. Some of the clips are disgusting but most of them are genuinely funny and the compilation is never dull. Some of the clips could have been shorter and others could have been longer but it’s a well edited montage of madness that’s perfect for putting on when you want to kill some brain cells. Fun stuff!
Review: Death Valley '69 is a video for the Sonic Youth song of the same name. The song origionally appeared on the "Bad Moon Rising" album from way back in 1985, at about the same time as Kern was making those Super 8 gross-out masterpieces starring the lovely "Lung Leg" - I swear I'm not making this up - who later graced the cover of the SY album "EVOL." There is a great gorey sequence in the DV '69 music video that looks like pieces of liver or stomach (or something...) plopted down in front of a very crudly "killed" Steve Shelley (SY's drummer at the time the video was shot). Kern's very distinctive Super 8 style (gittery, high contrast, EXTREMELY low budget, and super gross-out) that was - and I know this is hard to believe - really, really popular in the New York art scene in the eighties is captured here in it's full glory. Anyway, it's a Sonic Youth music video that is collected on the "Screaming Fields of Sonic Love" music video compilation thingy. There you have it..
Review: FINGERED is an art film that's constructed like a regular movie. Lydia Lunch plays a phone sex operator/prostitute that gets together with a guy she's been on the phone with. After a semi-hardcore sex scene, the violence begins. The man cuts someone's throat for looking at Lydia's character, then they go for a drive. The two abduct a hitch hiker and rape her in a junkyard.
Contains: Death Valley 69 (1986), The Right Side of MY Brain (1984), You Killed Me First (1985), The Bitches (1992)*, and The Sewing Circle (1992)*.
Review: This exclusive video collection is jam-packed with the gritty best from noted New York filmmaker, Richard Kern. His sexually charged work has been alternately dismissed as "violent" and "offensive" by the mainstreem press, but embraced by the underground as the perverse standard. Featuring punk rock diva, Lydia Lunch, funnyman Henry Rollins, the exotic genitalia of Kimbra Pfahler and the churning music of both Sonic Youth and Foetus, the urban jungle excursion is guaranteed to satisify your dark cravings for the unusual.
Contains: Fingered (1986), Submit to Me Now (1987), My Nightmare (1993)*, Horoscope (1991)*, and X is Y (1990).
Review: Of the films presented here, Fingered is by far the most infamous, begining with the statement: "This film is an exercise in the capitalization of an exploitation that some may find unnecessarily, violent, sexist and disgusting..." So be ready. Featuring no-wave diva, Lydia Lunch, punk poster girl Lung Leg and plenty of the agressively erotic imagery that New York photographer Richard Kern is famous for.
Review: This is a short story by Richard Kern, filmed in a way only underground cinema can be. No compromise, explicit scenes, eroticism meets death element. The type of stuff the hollywood fare and the typical film buff wouldn't even care to look at. For 'them', stuff that "anyone could make" - for me it's stuff the a true artist makes, even when he doesn't have big budget, the spirit is visible and can be felt anytime.
Review: Nick Zedd has a rough sexual playtime with two young women in the film's first half; in the second, whilst dressed in drag, he attempts to fellate a too-drunk Rick Strange. All the while, Killdozer's 'King Of Sex' grinds away on the soundtrack. Although the film's short length and use of rock music over dialogue inevitably lends 'King Of Sex' the air of an overly explicit music video, there do remain numerous undercurrents and aesthetic pre-occupations which occur throughout Kern's work. The film's structure, for instance, pre-empts his better-known 'The Evil Cameraman' in its first half documenting ritualistic S/M abuse, only for the second half to focus on the humiliation / emancipation of the earlier protagonist. As with all Kern shorts, this is kinky, greasy-looking stuff: tattooed New York punks making tattooed punk sleaze. Good music, too
Review: PIERCE is a short film of a real woman (friend of director Kern) getting her nipples pierced. The camera goes in really close so you know it's actually happening.
Review: This is the video for the song "Scooter and Jinx" on the album "Goo" by Sonic Youth. It depicts one woman (great-looking and punky) taking nude photos of another woman (also great-looking and punky), until something happens to the model. Cute, in a way, and silly, too. Not intentionally evil like many of his horrific films. In other words, this one doesn't give the viewer a terrible image in his or her head that can never be erased from their memory.
Review: This one follows a man who is in love with his favorite local artist.He follows him home and makes numerous unwanted sexual advances on the middle aged male painter, who ignores him throughout. Sexually frustrated he begin's to tear himself apart (literally) and not until he is a bloody dying mess on the floor does the artist take any notice, in the way of a sarcastic laugh.
Review: The term "shock value" is a major understatement for this film. Kern's use of camerawork and lighting is exceptional in itself, but the story line and soundtrack for his movies are generally designed to jar the audience out of a passive complacency, and my god does he know how to do that. This movie is indeed unique in that it attempts to portray a certain sensibility/point of view without any sort of compromise; there are no holds barred here and the audience is the target. Surrealistic angst driven to a frenzied pitch by the music and coupled with a blowjob from hell.
Review: Another one of Kern's acid filled short's from 1985, this one deserves to be show at every large family gathering you ever have (a friend of mine did once and sent the whole family (apart from his paraplegic grandmother) running out of the room). Starring the ever gorgeous Lung Leg as the errant daughter who decides to settle the score with her oppressive family in the only way she knows. Shot in Colour with the staple Zedd sound its a bit hard to make out in times but as always with his films the perseverence pays off, when will we ever see stuff like this on cable let alone terrestrial television?
Review: Lothar Schramm is a simple man with complex problems, yet he seems like such a nice guy. He works as a taxi driver and lives by himself where he is happy to answer his door to strangers and kill them outright. As with many shy loner types he has a problem dealing with woman so he drugs them and photographs their nude bodies for sexual stimulation. He then murders his helpless victims and so goes the life of a deranged serial killer.
Aka: Cries of Ecstasy, Blows of Death; Grida di Estasi
Review: Outta-the-ball-park sci fi weirdness from Italy that opens with scenes lifted from Romero's The Crazies then cuts to mushroom cloud footage which leads us to a post nuke desert populated by a gasmask clad cult who constantly screw each other in big plastic bubbles. How gonzo is this mess? The film has two seperate opening credit sequences, different titles and everything! In Italian ONLY
Review: Filmed entirely in a desolate field, Violent Virgin opens with two cars traveling along a dusty road. Three men and three women, apparently members of a gang, have a couple bound and blindfolded. After they reach their demonstration, they drag the man and woman, whose names we soon learn are Hoshi and Hanako, out of the cars and dump them on the ground. It seems that Hanako was the boss's girl, but she eloped with Hoshi. Captured, it seems that they are going to be murdered, but not before they are humiliated by the other gang members. Their clothes are eventually stripped off and Hanako is tied to a cross. Hoshi is informed that the big boss has ordered that he be made into the "boss" for the day. The male members of the gang refer to Hoshi as "boss" and each of the female members intend to have sex with him before he is killed. However, Hoshi strangles the first prostitute and runs. After this, things really begin to become bizarre.
Review: Quote: Frequently compared to maverick Japanese experimentalist Shinya Tsukamoto's hyperkinetic cyberpunk masterpiece Tetsuo: The Iron Man, director Shozin Fukui's Pinocchio 964 weaves the dark tale of a cybernetic sex android that escapes into society with no memory of the past and a desperate instinct for survival. When Pinocchio makes the acquaintance of amnesiac Kyoko, the pair offer support to one and other as they attempt to piece together their fragmented pasts and forge on into an uncertain future. As Pinocchio and Kyoko slowly begin to make sense of the mysterious forces that drew them together, Pinocchio's nefarious architect sends a team of agents to bring back his prototype before the world discovers his true potential — setting into motion a hallucinogenic fight for survival that must be seen to be believed. — Jason Buchanan
Review: this short film is less of a story, than a series of random events just strung together and tedious events at that. A crazy girl running, throwing up, spitting out ice cream, screaming, etc,etc
Review: A group of scientists are working to unleash the psychic potential in human beings. The company they work for decides the project is a loss and sends a secretary to tell them the news of the project's shutdown. The poor scientists react rather badly to the news, and in a desperate attempt to make a final breakthrough, subject one of their own ranks to the drug and device. He responds well so they put him in an isolating rubber suit that deprives him of all sensory input and begin to experiment on him in horrifying ways. Gruesome chaotic and truly devastating. Rubber's Lover will satisfy almost every horror fan.
Review: Part documentary, part narrative fiction, part home movie, and part acid trip. A psychedelic whirlwind of snapshots, Super-8 home movies, old answering machine messages, video diaries, early short films, snippets of '80s pop culture, and dramatic reenactments to create an epic portrait of an American family travesty. The story begins in 2003 when Jonathan learns that his schizophrenic mother, Renee, has overdosed on her lithium medication. He is catapulted back into his real and horrifying family legacy of rape, abandonment, promiscuity, drug addiction, child abuse, and psychosis. As he grows up on camera, he finds the escapist balm of musical theater and B horror flicks and reconnects to life through a queer chosen family. Then a look into the future shows Jonathan as he confronts the symbiotic and almost unbearable love he shares with his beautiful and tragically damaged mother.
Review: Sequel to "Tetsou" this time has the Iron Man transforming into cyberkinetic gun when a gang of vicious skinheads kidnap his son. When the skinheads capture him, they begin to experiment on him...speeding up the mutative process
Review: Hong Kong female police officer is stalked by a killer who thinks she is Satan’s daughter! The killer cuts the hearts out of his victims in order to test them to see if they can live without a heart-proving they are Satan’s daughter! Lots of gore and even some cool action in this strange horror-type film that deals a bit with Satanism!
Review: Director William Girdler's take on possession films about a marriage counselor (Carol Speed) who becomes possessed by a Demon of Sexuality, when her father in law (William Marshall) an Exorcist, freed it while in Africa.

Review: Another non-related sequel to the Beyond the Door series, this one rarely has anything to do with Chi sei?/Beyond the Door (1974) or Schock/Beyond the Door II (1977). With this one a shy co-ed and her class mates travel to Europe to see a ritual. With a Satanist/Professor with them he lures them into deadly traps to become sacrifices to Satan. One co-ed is a virgin the main key to bring Satan back to life. But can the co-ed lose her virginity before Satan controls the world?
Review: A young woman travels with her partner to England on the unexpected death of her brother. Staying with her sister-in-law, she finds her companion soon drawn into a satanic cult based in the house whose rites seem to centre somewhat on large-scale sexual congress.
Review: 1973 Spanish horror film from Eugenio ‘Horror Express’ Martin. Two evil, sexually frustrated sisters run a local boarding house/hotel in a small Spanish village called 'Meson las dos Hermanas' (aka Inn of the Two Sisters). Driven mad by their religious mania and sexual repression they kill the women whose morals they disapprove of with knives, meatcleavers and axes. The hacked up bodies and lumps of flesh are stored and hidden in wine vats in the hotel cellar to avoid suspicion. Grisly and gruesome knifings, axings, cleavings and very atmospheric scenery make this a superior and highly recommended film. Spanish horror doesn't get any better than this must see classic. Our version contains the nudity and violence missing from other versions and is much more complete than the butchered version under the title 'It Happened at Nightmare Inn'. Stars Judy Geeson, Aurora Bautista, Esperanza Roy, Lone Fleming, Victor Alcazar and Blanca Estrada.
Review: This movie starts with the teenager Peter (Jean-Claude Verne) who takes a picture of a mysterious naked woman (Mimma Monticelli) near a pastoral waterfall. When the picture is developed, the woman's image is gone, and Peter is possessed by her ghost through a cursed amulet he finds at the scene

Review: Three young romantically paired working class couples (two male/female, one female/female) are out for an afternoon of al fresco frolics in the country when their Ford Granada breaks down. Stranded, they are picked up by a comedy vicar in a vintage car (this is British, after all) and seek refuge in an isolated house where their upper class host secretly spikes the evening meal with aphrodisiacs. Of course, the delirious guests subsequently spend the night copulating furiously in a variety of combinations. But events take a sinister turn when one of the girls learns that their host and his friends are dabblers in the Black Arts...
Review: Juliet Mills plays a pregnant woman who becomes possessed by a demon and begins puking split pea soup all over the place. Ex-boyfriend Richard Johnson shows up to save the day. Tagline: Beyond this door the most terrifying event in the history of mankind is about to occur!
Review: This outrageous witches' brew of gothic mayhem blends equal parts of Frankenstein, Dracula, and H.P. Lovecraft, starring a veritable Who's Who of familiar faces (and figures) from the 1970s heyday of Spanish horror. When the Countess de Moncourt is left destitute by the suicide of her husband, she resumes her maiden identity as Claire Grandier, medium! Teaming up with telepathic Dr. Gambier, she accepts an invitation from the Duke de Haussement to preside over a seance at a wild party. The pair are invited to stay at the chateau in exchange for lessons in the occult sciences, but Claire secretly plots revenge via necromancy against the Duke for depleting her estate. Working from the cellar with a lascivious dwarf, she and Gambier reanimate a local pauper's corpse and mentally guide it to commit murder, creating a soulless killing machine!
Review: Unrelentingly bizarre Hong Kong horror movie about an ancient curse which causes victims to vomit worms, maggots and slime. There's a rather convoluted murder mystery as well, but who cares about that? It's gore you want to see and its gore that you get--and it's some of the messiest ever to ooze across the screen. There are several scenes of ascending repulsiveness in which a victim flails on the ground as (real) worms, maggots, centipedes, eels, slime, blood and pus erupt from their mouths and skin. It's even more disgusting than it sounds. But the strangest thing about this movie is how light and cheery it is between the puking scenes. People laugh, ride through the park, go to the movies together, and there's an obnoxiously spunky little bellboy named Ding Dong (!). And, of course, there's the ridiculous dubbing job which is sure to annihilate any hint of scariness or atmosphere. There's a creepy opening in which a woman is mugged and has her face bashed in with a rock, followed by a scene in which a witch cuts open a sick man's stomach and scoops out all the maggots and worms infesting his guts. Yuck. After that, the aforementioned happy-go-lucky nonsense kicks in, and we have to wait a while for the next bout of nastiness. Be prepared to fast-forward through the incoherent plot and inane dialogue, but if you're a fan of Asian horror with a concentration on worm-puking, this is the movie for you. Worthy of note is the fact that a muzak version of Billy Joel's "The Stranger" plays during a bar scene.
Review: The story in this horror movie involves a young woman's unknowing participation in a satanic ceremony which causes her to be possessed by the spirit of her dead father. She promptly begins exhibiting the standard symptoms - curses, vomiting, and even twisting the heads of a few people 180 degrees. Naschy plays the village priest summoned to perform the rites of exorcism, and must fend off the possessed's lewd advances before casting the evil spirit out of her body.
Review: Turn-of-the-century occultist Alfred Fischer acquires a mystical medallion and conjures up a trio of ravishing, ravenous demons from the depths of hell. Taking the form of beautiful women, the succubus beasts demand a steady diet of fresh human prey that only a mortal human servant can provide. Almost a century after Fischer meets his mysterious demise, a crack team of six parapsychologists investigate the manor and former brothel only to face an obstacle course of the seductive, sexy beasts, the madman owner with a satanic secret, and a horde of zombies making up of past victims bent on a rampage of carnal slaughter!

Review: Princess Obongo, the Goddess of Unspeakable Lust, uses dark powers to ensnare a hapless couple of yuppies, so that she can imbue them with evil and conquer the world.
Review: Magdalena (Dagmar Hedrich) is an orphan at a girls' school who gets possessed by a demonic supernatural force. She goes into convulsions and makes furniture fly around the room before she gets some help from an exorcised.
Review: This extremely low-budgeted Italian effort is shoddy even for the most forgiving Euro-trash-fan. That doesn't mean it's a thoroughly unwatchable movie, but, well... there's not really much going on during the film. A young woman gets possessed by a sex-crazed ghost. She begins to seduce the men around her, even her dying grandfather, who doesn't survive her "attack" (in a scene which has to be seen to be believed). It's more sex than horror: Instead of gory moments you get hard core inserts (at least in the uncensored version). All in all quite an odd obscurity from Andrea Bianchi, recommended to die-hard-sleaze-freaks only.
Review: Teenage girl runs away from home because police officer/stepfather puts the moves on her. Hitchhiking to California, she gets picked up by two guys who are also traveling cross country. Along the way, they decide to camp out in the woods and run accross a family of Satanists who keep thier dead mother in the attic

Whe the young man gets in touch with the book and some of the yellow potion, he mutates into a monster and awakens an army of zombies, ready to bring back the fallen Angel Premutos and to disturb the little birthday party...
Review: This story details the black magic activities of the teenage Daria, (a young Lara Wendel), who will stop at nothing in order to gain enough Satanic power in order to grow stronger in spirit and overthrow her mother, a white Witch, and her do-good coven. A very obscure, rarely seen and recommended Witchcraft film which contains nudity.
Review: A teenage girl, possessed by the lascivious spirit of her murdered mother, goes on a rampage of lust and destruction. What follows is nothing less than a full-tilt celebration of all things perverse, morally corrupt and thoroughly evil. Featuring a performance from Jacqueline Dupré in her first and only screen role, this self-described Eurosleaze sickie is a depraved sexploitation cult classic.
Review: A man travels to another city for his sister's funeral to try to find out why she killed herself. He discovers that she is actually a vampire and returns from the dead to take revenge on her family.
Review: Andy and Thelma, an urbanite couple living in Madrid, leave their apartment for a pleasant day around the city with their dog.

Demonic possession consumes one victim after another as showers of blood drench the earth and shrieks of pain echo throughout the forest.

In the darkened fields, only bloodshed, violence, and terror grow now - and tonight the harvest begins.
Review: young doctor on a medical expedition in Thailand rescues a woman from a sacrificial ritual and is cursed with seven blood spells! A really wild and far out supernatural HK film with plenty of action and gore!! Stars Chow Yun-Fat as an occult expert!
Review: The story in this horror movie revolves around a strange religious icon and the demonic sexual influence it exerts on a young art student (Stella Carnacina). After a gory dream sequence in which the woman imagines herself being nailed to a cross herself, the statue eventually comes to life and begins to sexually torment her. Tagline: Tormented ...By The She-Ghost Of Haunted Island
Review: Janine Reynaud stars as a nightclub stripper who free-floats through a spectral 60's landscape littered with dream-figures, dancing midgets and bizarre S&M games. Tagline: The sensual experience of '69.
Review: A mute child arrives at a children's home and starts terrorizing the other children with her demonic powers. Tagline: The Power of The Devil in the Hands of a Child
Review: Sharon Leslie plays a super model with amnesia. She's staying in a psychiatric hospital where her doctor is trying to uncover the repressed psychological trauma that put her in this state. It's partly a mystery, with the doctor as detective, in which they try to figure out who/what did this to her. Of course, it's also an exploitation movie with a lot of nudity and softcore sex. Sharon Leslie is attractive, and she looks a lot like the actress who played "Nola Darling" in Spike Lee's "She's Gotta Have it". The director of the original "Black Emanuelle", Aldaberto Albertini, also directed this one. His movies seem to focus more on character relationships/ psychological drama and are more cohesive than director Joe D'Amato's later movies. The movie is full of trippy flash back sequences and sexual suspense. Recommended!
Review: The beautiful and sex-starved Emmannuelle Prevert just cannot inflame her husband's ardour. In frustration she seduces a string of VIPs, including the Prime Minister and the American Ambassador. A jealous lover gives a list of all her conquests to the national press and a scandal ensues. But will she ever manage to get her own husband into bed?
Review: Rhonda Jo Petty is engaged to Ron Jeremy, but she is afraid to let herself go with him - afraid that her body doesn't look good enough, that she isn't a good lover. Paul arranges for her to do a nude photo session, hoping she will loosen up a little. She does, but a lot more than Paul anticipates! In the second segment, Jeanette James and Kevin Gibson are young marrieds who are having a problem keeping the excitement they once experienced with each other. Kay decides to enroll in an institute for sexual improvement. Howard finds out and decides to look into it. When he does, Howard and Kay live happily ever after.
Review: Directed by Elia Milonakos. Sexploitation silliness. This has the distinction of being one of the few films with "love camp" in the title that isn't about nazis. Laura Gemser plays "The Divine One" who rules a sex-cult that seems like a cross between Jim Jones' compound and Club Med! Some wild costumes, and periodic flogging of cult miscreants in case you get tired of the "love." With musical numbers.
Review: Emanuelle, a reporter, comes just a little too close to exposing a corrupt official, and is sent to prison on trumped-up charges. In the prison, the inmates are constantly humiliated and tortured by the prison staff. Overly affectionate prisoners are forced underwater, while others are obliged to look on. Emanuelle finds an enemy in the deranged Albina, who "runs the prison." For the pleasure of the warden, Emanuelle and Albina are forced to fight each other with knives. Bad becomes worse when four men awaiting execution escape and take over the prison. Gore flows like water.
Review: When Emanuelle (Gemser) arrives in the small Italian village heads start turning and eyes start popping. All males in the town are falling all over themselves trying to get a look (or a feel) of the new doctor. One in particular is the fiancee of the mayor's daughter.

Review: Emmanuelle is a beautiful young model and lives in Bankok together with her husband Jean, who's several years older. She likes him because he's taught her much, and he likes her because she's learning so well - and wants to often. Both are very tolerant in matters of extramarital affairs, so he doesn't mind the young Marie-Ange coming over erver so often, although she obviously wants more than talk from his wife. But Emmanuelle is more fascinated by the older Bee, and joins her on a trip into the jungle.
Review: A rare foray into semi-mainstream cinema for art-house eroticist Borowczyk that tried to capitalize on the fast-fading box-office appeal of Sylvia Kristel. The former mainstay of Andy Warhol's Factory, Joe Dallesandro brings his usual lumpen sullenness to his role as a businessman who develops an unhealthy obsession with a streetwalker (Kristel). Aside from a curious sequence with an egg, the film lacks the eye for detail and almost tactile eroticism that permeates Borowczyk's peculiar oeuvre and, on the whole, tends to be dismissed by even the film-maker's most ardent supporters.
Review: Emmanuelle returns to her husband in Hong Kong and proceeds to have several extramarital affairs -- with his knowledge, of course. Her husband's lover and American guest are both very puzzled by their openness.
Review: There is only one reason to see this flick and that reason is Shauna O'Brien. She is the hottest actress I have ever seen. She has made a lot of movies [mostly softcore porno flicks like this one], but this is her best one. It's also better than most of the recent EMMANUELLE movies. Though not perfect, Shauna O'Brien makes it worth seeing a couple million times.

Review: As the aliens near the end of their sexual odyssey, Emmanuelle and her intergalactic lover experience spiritual and physical pleasure for possibly the last time.
Review: This has to be one of the best if not the best of the Emmanuelle series. Francis Leroi did an excellent job of making just about every scene in the movie erotic. The story revolves around a virtual reality machine which makes peoples fantasies come true.(Not to be confused with the later American version) This movie is mostly shot in France which gives the scenes extra authenticity. Sylvia and friend go back to their younger days when they were at a catholic all girls boarding school and progress from there. Her friend is suffering from a bad sexual experience. One scene is where they make out in the dormitory in view of the other girls, who use flashlights to see what is happening. Other scenes include a rape scene in a meat factory. A Marilyn Monroe look alike who shows off her assets. Casual sex with a stranger. An erotic bath house scene where a woman goes into the mens bath house and you can guess what happens. The advantage to this movie is the women are all beautiful and can act. Most scenes have full nudity in them, rather than partial nudity like some of the earlier Emmanuelles. The movie has enough erotic content to make it one of the best.
Review: Emmanuelle and Tasha go to Vegas so that Emmanuelle can teach Tasha, and her people from space, about sex.

Review: In the latest installment of the never ending Emmnauelle series, our titular heroine, played by Natasja Vermeer this time out, takes on Dracula at her friend's bachlorette party. The plot is paper thin and the production value are pretty weak, but Natasja is stunning and of the supporting players, Mollie Green is a stand out as she fakes a pretty good orgasm. Good for the sex scenes, but hard to sit through and watch. Also starring Beverly Lynne, Kelsey and Valerie Baber. Full title: Emmanuelle the Private Collection: Emmanuelle vs. Dracula.

Review: This film is an official sequel to the original 1974 release directed by Just Jaeckin and starring Sylvia Kristel. Alas, Jaeckin's lush, erotic style is poorly imitated by director Francis Leroi (rumored to be a pseudonym for European porn pioneer, Lasse Braun) and Kristel's better days were already well behind her when this movie was made. The basic premise involves a now older Emmanuelle (Kristel) regaling a businessman (George Lazenby of ill-fated Bond fame) with stories of her past erotic exploits while on a flight to God knows where. The film then reverts to flashbacks in which said exploits are depicted in typical softcore fashion, with pouty Marcela Walerstein in the role of the younger Emmnauelle. This was actually one in a series of 6 films made back-to-back by producer Alain Siritzky, all with the same cast, sets and basic premise. The others being: Emmanuelle Forever, Emmanuelle's Love, Emmanuelle in 7th Heaven, Emmanuelle's Magic and Emmanuelle in Venice.
Review: This is not a new film. It is a re-cut of 1994's "Emmanuelle, Queen of the Galaxy", and it has been significantly truncated. Warning: Many characters appear in the credits that have been cut from the movie! If you want to see this one in its original form, pick up "Queen" - avoid this one at all costs, as the cuts make it even choppier than it was originally.

Review: Jekyll and Hyde get a sex change! When slimy stud Dr. Chris Leeder (Jack Buddliner) takes possession of Dr. Jekylls ancient notebook, he quickly becomes obsessed with the murderous sex crimes of the original Mr. Hide. Ignoring the notebooks warning that the Jekyll and Hyde formula "makes people appear as they really are," the demented doc mixes the potion and promptly turns into..."Miss Hyde" (Jane Tsentas), a sexy blonde in a mini-skirt who just happens to be a homicidal nymphomaniac! After enjoying a lesbian romp with Leeders secretary (legendary skinflick starlet Rene Bond), and the sadistic slaughter of a drunken sailor (ouch!), Miss Hide decides to pay a visit to Leeders fiancee (Jennifer Brooks) and permanently cancel the wedding. Gender-bending adult horror, "The Adult Version of Jekyll and Hide" is another outrageous classic from the Mighty Monarch of Sexploitation, producer David F. Friedman.
Review: From director Paul Morrissey who was part of Any Warhol's inner circle. This film was heavily edited, but now, like the monster itself, it rises again with all its perversity, camp and gut-wrenching effects intact in this long-awaited director's cut.
Review: Der Todesengel has the kind of plot that usually fills the gaps between sex scenes in a porno. Despite having a plethora of subplots which basically involve women either stripping or being abused, the film ultimately shapes up as a battle of wills between a nude model turned lesbian assassin, Manila and an organised crime syndicate who specialise in pimping kidnapped women. After approximately an hour of seemingly random sex and violence, Manila finally appears in the film and is promptly raped by an idiotic pair of Bavarian gangsters and left for dead. Manila survives, but her ordeal changes her into a blood thirsty lesbian who embarks on a man killing rampage. In a quieter moment, Manila stumbles across the men who attacked her on the way to dispose of some body parts. This sets up the final battle as Manila takes on her attackers and their gang, wearing vinyl hot pants and sky high stilettos. The first half of Der Todesengel is what I would describe as relatively harmless sleaze. There is sex and violence, and of course sexual violence, but the content is comparable to any number of Euro-sexploitation films of the 1970s. I suspect this material might have been used as padding (not that the film needed it - the uncut version of Der Todesengel has a mind-boggling running time of almost 3 hours) because the second half has an entirely different feel. The violence is nastier, the sex is more explicit and the film finally begins to feel somewhat cohesive and gathers momentum. The film's second half contains enough carnage, torture, bondage and explicit sex to ensure Bethmann's reputation as the undisputed king of the modern video nasty. Bethmann's films do not have an ounce of political correctness in them and therein ultimately lies their value. Anything goes in this film - my "highlights" include Manila pleasing herself with a decapitated head, Manila finding time to masturbate while breaking into the enemy compound, a knifing reminiscent of the prostitute's fate in "Seven" and the infamous castration scene. This kind of material is obviously not for every taste but for all its excess, I find it hard to be shocked or offended by Der Todesengel. The violence is not realistic, the acting is amusingly awful and the sex will not shock anyone who has ever strayed into the adult section of their local video store. The combination of all these elements is occasionally confronting but more often than not the film is simply too ridiculous to be offensive.
Review: A young woman finds herself held against her will in an eerie mental asylum by the sinister "Dr. Specter" and his masculine-looking assistant, Martine. She begins to suspect that the visions of horror she experiences are not nightmares and that she is due to be sacrificed to The Evil One.

Review: Seven girls must spend the night in an old house, which once was a brothel, as part of an initiation. Tagline: Their hazing was a night to dismember...
Review: More HK weirdness about a cop who is killed in the line of duty and returns from the grave after being struck by lightning. This film has developed a cult following over the years because of the infamous "Breast milk" scene featuring busty Amy Yip! Worth the watch.
Review: A poisonous "rat monkey" is taken from a desert island to a zoo in New Zealand. Lionel takes his girlfriend Paquita there. His pain-in-the-ass mother follows him, probably suffering from some kind of reverse Oedipus complex. She is bitten by the monkey and gradually turns into a zombie. Then she goes around hunting people, and everybody she bites also turn into zombies. Lionel has bigger and bigger problems fighting the zombies and hiding them from Paquita and the rest of the world. Finally, Lionel and Paquita get into a fight with hundreds of zombies during a party at Lionel's home.
Review: This film exists halfway between softcore lesbian porn and gore-soaked splatter as a cheap exploitation film that tries and then fails to do both, without too much concern for acting or dialogue. Mountains of barely clad female flesh go hand in hand with ridiculous violence in this barely recognisable adaptation of an obscure Bram Stoker story about a coven of rat-worshipping female bandits. While there isn't actually any lesbianism shown on camera the implication of its existence overwhelms virtually every other aspect of `Burial of the Rats'. The story follows the adventure of young Bram Stoker and his father, attacked by the bandits during their travels abroad. The younger Stoker kills one of them and is captured; the elder one tries to convince the local constabulary to search for his missing son even after receiving such matter-of-fact advise as `Go on home, and forget all about your son!' In a matter of hours young Bram has fallen in love with one Barbie-doll proportioned Rat Woman and become sympathetic to the others' cause, even if it entails murderous raids on monasteries and brothels. Meaningless topless dancing scenes and silly violence follow, including a gratuitous torture dungeon sequence and the sight of a bucketful of rats picking a corpse clean to a bleached skeleton in a matter of seconds. That a god-fearing Victorian moralist like Stoker would have even conceived of something like this is unlikely: `Burial of the Rats' is pure William Castle camp from the prison guard who can't recognise the protagonist because he has a hat on (!!) to the ludicrous moment when the Rat Queen plucks a disobedient rodent out of the pack on the floor at her feet and cuts its head off-with a miniature guillotine! Insipid and inane but much more fun than a dozen far more well-made `serious' films, this is a bad movie lovers delight
Review: A depraved religious fanatic sets out to punish all the "immoral" women who have posed for the center-fold of a men's magazine. Tagline: The most beautiful girls in the world! He was their JUDGE... JURY... and EXECUTIONER!

Review: A gruesome homage to the cult Amicus anthology Asylum, Cradle of Fear unfolds four screamplays all linked by the unspeakable need of an incarcerated child killer to wreak vengeance on those responsible for his imprisonment. Helped by deranged angel Dani Filth, who leaves a trail of charnel house death in his crimson wake, the cannibal convict forces two Goth vamps to endure a one night stand from hell, two tough female robbers to see through each other, an obscenely rich coke-head to chop up more than a few lines and an internet surfer to descend into madness when he uncovers the ultimate web depravity.
Review: Several young boys are murdered in a remote village rife with sex and superstition, and the townspeople go mad with rage and violence. But when a hard-nosed reporter and promiscuous young woman search for the true killer, they discover a fiend--and motive--even more shocking than the crimes themselves. 'Don't Torture A Duckling' is a landmark giallo so savage, it could only come from the mind of director Lucio Fulci (The Beyond, Zombie, City of the Living Dead). Featuring an international all-star cast that includes Tomas Milian, Barbara Bouchet, Irene Papas, and Florinda Bolkan, this re-discovered classic has been restored from the original vault materials and is presented completely uncut and uncensored.
Review: See the battle of the monsters, Goliath versus Ook!

Out for revenge, Genz lets Goliath loose to go head to pointy-head with Ook in a good old-fashioned monster rumble

Carrol Naish), who is really the last of the Frankensteins and is now running a house of horrors by the beach and is performing experiments on Gorton's victims. One night Count Dracula (Zandor Vorkov) visits the doctor, showing him the original Frankenstein creation that was buried in a nearby graveyard. The doctor revives it and uses it to take revenge on his professional rivals.
Review: For those of you who don’t know the story, it’s about 3 fairy/ghost sisters who seduce men while battling an evil demon. Lots of full frontal nudity and eroticism in this one! Lots of hot babes too!
Review: The soon-to-be Monk Talkative does his best to understand when Fairy Yeh explains what must be done. Rabbit spirits have escaped from the heavenly garden, and must be recaptured. These bunnies can assume human female form, and gorgeous forms at that. One is played by Pang Dan, who happens to be the soon-to-be Monk Talkative's wife. Talkative finds the explanation hard to follow (as do we the audience) but decides to help. Meanwhile, another rabbit spirit escapes, is rescued from hunters by scholar Yu-shu, who takes the rabbit home. While Yu-shu sleeps (with the rabbit in his bed !), the rabbit turns into the luscious Siu Mui (Keung Ka Ling), who makes love with him while he somehow manages to remain asleep. Yu-shu awakes next morning to find he is no longer a virgin, and also that a lovely young woman is calling him hubby. Perhaps in shock, or fearing that his blind mother might wonder, he tries to convince her to leave. Pang Dan's character also does the "Virgin Stance" with another bunny, played by Wong Nei. Lots of confusion and daftness follows, as the forces of heaven (the bad guys, lead by the evil Queen Of Heaven) pursue the bunnies, with concealed identities and misunderstandings all over the place.
Review: The movie starts with some clips from the first movie, recapping some of the events of that film. Wu-Tung, the demon sex god (or whatever he is) appears in another body, and takes up with a willing female partner. However, Heaven sends two "fairies" (what the subtitles called them: they're probably something else) to keep them apart by burning the woman at stake. They put her spirit into some kind of pill, and toss it out a window. The spirit pill lands on the shoulder of a baby girl being born. The girl grows up in a village that regularly sacrifices virgins to Wu-Tung. Wu-Tung, though now with a female counterpart of himself who growls and hisses about as much as he, is still looking for his lost love. It's inevitable that the girl will become slated to become one of the sacrifices. However, she has some attraction to a fisherman in her village. Some have called him handicapped, but I didn't pick up on that apart from his occasional too-wide goofy grin. There are a lot of colorful costumes in the movie, although Wu-Tung's get-up is pretty ridiculous. He has a giant white fright wig that must be three feet across at least, along with white face makeup, a metallic-looking phallic tail, huge shoulder pads, etc.: really silly. Some of the sets and outdoor locations are picturesque, while others are on the poor side. Cinematography was generally pretty good. Soundtrack was generally pretty bad, particularly the saxophone music.
Review: Pretty standard entry in the Erotic Ghost Story series stars Pauline Chan as a ghost/woman who falls for some guy who falls prey to the dark side, or something like that. Like A Chinese Ghost Story, our hero ends up hanging with lots of ghosts in the woods. Unfortunately, his soul or something will be stolen so he must be freed with the help of a wacky monk, who’s played by riotously famous ugly guy Shing Fui-On. Otherwise, there’s just lots of sex and nudity to tide the fans over. As cult HK smut goes this film doesn’t really rise to the heights (or sink to the depths) of Sex and Zen or the previous Erotic Ghost Story movie. There’s a little over-the-topness, but not as much as number two, which had Anthony Wong to enliven things. And by now the formula is getting stale. Only for the most hardcore Category III fan.
Review: A very fun film, Erotic Nightmare features Anthony Wong as said teacher who starts having jarring twist-ending sex dreams about his female students that leave him startled awake and dry humping his wife who has a heart condiion and can't ride his mule every night. When a skitchy magician offers his services to fix up Lok's (Wong) smut dreams, stuff starts going' down hard in his real life--violent murders and whatnot.
Review: This one's undoubtedly superior to Dracula, PRISONER OF FRANKENSTEIN (1971) – displaying a fair evidence of style throughout (notably some Bava-esquire lighting).It utilizes a lot of the same cast as that film: Dennis Price, in fact, returns as Frankenstein but gets little to do (this is his least performance in a Franco film – especially embarrassing when his character is regenerated); Howard Vernon now turns up as Cagliostro (I had been underwhelmed by his performance when I watched the Spanish version a few years back, but he's actually quite commanding); Anne Libert gets her most impressive role as Melissa, the blind and eccentric "Bird Woman" in Cagliostro's service (though the mysterious zombie-like figures who witness the titular events from behind bars are just as grotesquely made-up); Britt Nichols is underused, but her luscious figure gets exposed this time around (and, in any case, she's perfectly cast as Cagliostro's proposed bearer of a new master race); Alberto Dalbes also returns as Dr. Seward where, again, he's the hero; ditto Fernando Bilbao as Frankenstein's monster (given a curious silver make-up here); Luis Barboo is on hand as well but, now, he plays Cagliostro's henchman rather than Frankenstein's (the latter role is taken all too briefly at the very start by Franco himself); Daniel J. White also gets more screen-time than in the previous film (where he was just an extra) as a Police Inspector. Missing here – consequently, the film runs for a mere 70 minutes! – is the irrelevant gypsy subplot (featuring Lina Romay) filmed some time later and eventually incorporated into the Spanish variant, dubbed LA MALDICION DE FRANKENSTEIN aka THE CURSE OF FRANKENSTEIN – though the English-language edition I watched also bears this title!! Still, the would-be erotic rites (presented clothed in Spain) are silly rather than titillating: actually, there's only one (in which the monster is made to whip the naked figures of Barboo and Frankenstein's daughter in a dungeon with a spiked floor), as the intended procreation scene involving Bilbao and Nichols is ultimately interrupted by the heroes. Cagliostro's flight at the end, then, suggests that a further instalment may have been intended – but it never transpired. Opinions about this particular version seem to go from one extreme to the other: it's neither one of Franco's top efforts nor among his worst, hence the middle-of-the-road rating I gave it. On the other hand, everybody seems to agree that the alternate Spanish release is a lesser achievement – even so, it's not that the loss of the tacked-on footage (or, for that matter, the benefit of nudity) dramatically alters the quality of the finished product!

Beware cut versions; the film was shown back in the 70's on network TV chopped to only 76 minutes!

Tagline: They're men turned inside out! And worse... they're still alive!
Review: This is a rare low budget gem that fans of Asian splatter will likely get a kick out of. Gory eye candy is on display for much of the running time, and includes some great graphic dismemberment as well as other forms of mutilation. Like another reviewer pointed out, the middle portion of the film goes on too long and could have been shortened to make for a better paced and more enjoyable watch. The whole cult angle is a bit over played but the movie pretty much redeems itself.
Review: A lurid and laughable sci-fi/horror exploitator from sleaze king Harry Novak, this nudie-cutie will make you afraid of things that go bump and grind in the night! Sterilox, a man from the planet Droopiter, visits mad Dr. Breedlove in search of some ideal breeding stock. Luckily, amongst the monsters are lots of lingerie-clad and naked women

Review: A disgraced ancient Egyptian sorceress(Ava Niche)is brought back to life in modern day Los Angeles to reclaim an old love in the spirit of a college student(Sasha Peralto). Naked lovin', touchin' and squeezin'. Flimsy, hackneyed story line; but at least one is attempted. Also in the cast are: George Thomas, Aysia Lee and Richard Lynch. Listed as a horror movie; but actually just a skin flick.(I am not complaining).
Review: Set against Sin City, Las Vegas, "Murder-Set-Pieces" tells the story of a fashion photographer whose vocation is murder.

Review: A mental-patient, who is troubled with horrible nightmares, has escaped from his hospital. Now on the streets he can´t help killing innocent people. But there is one family he is more than interested in and when he tries to kill them, he finds that it´s not that easy.
Review: Early Rollin and certainly not as polished as his later Fascination or La Morte Vivante but a must-see for his true fans as all his trademark fetishes (sexy twin nymphettes,silent sirens in diaphanous gowns,a beach-set climax) are present and accounted for. The story may be little more than a bit of ponderous nonsense (perceived girl vampire turns out to be the next step in human evolution as well as a crossover from another world/planet) but to knock the flick for that is missing the point by about a mile. Rollin always took his inspiration from schlocky adult comics,preferring to deal in artful fantasy rather than dreary reality,dressing his intentionally wooden actresses (pretty pawns) in outlandish outfits and having them move about like animated mannequins in extremely photogenic decors. It could be argued that this amounts to little more than surface gloss but that would be overlooking Rollin's quasi-unique gift for visual poetry,virtually unparallelled in world cinema.
Review: The story starts out innocently enough. Gökalp, the editor of the high school journal, has a crush on pretty Güldem, which he expresses through a series of carefully handwritten stories, delivered in fancy red envelopes. Güldem’s already taken, though, and her thick-skulled boyfriend Ersin publicly humiliates Gökalp for his platonic puppy love. As a result, Gökalp commits suicide. A year later, the university entrance exams are coming up fast and all the students in the boarding school are stressed beyond belief. Gökalp’s suicide still troubles Güldem, especially when a series of increasingly eerie and inexplicable events begin to suggest that the lovestruck writer may be dead but not gone. In the chaos of the exam crunch, the school’s staff are far too tied up to be of any help, so it’s left to Güldem, Ersin and their friends to confront the tragic—and possibly lethal—ghost together. Okul turns a new page in Turkish cinema, previously devoid of anything fitting into the horror genre. Not only does Okul, which means “school,” bring the American teen chiller to Turkey (sexy school uniforms and clownish teachers intact), it also challenges the mores and conventions of Turkish society. Far from the usual family-centered dramas, it’s set in a boarding school where the kids are unrestrained by any authority other than perhaps the goofy security guard Suleyman. It’s a clear effort on the part of producer Sinan Çetin and the directing duo of Yagmur and Durul Taylan (like the Wachowskis and Pangs, another brother team) to create a film that speaks to the increasingly hip and Westernized Turkish youth, blending spine-tingling terror, touching romance and an authentic eye for the joys, pains and antics of the modern teenager. —Rupert Bottenberg
Review: Young co-eds are being cut up by a chainsaw killer on a college campus. The killer is attempting to put together a human jigsaw puzzle made from body parts.

He attacks and rapes several of the women, who die horrible deaths because his sperm is radioactive. The survivors must find a way to either escape the island or kill the monster.
Review: Olaf Ittenbach has made himself a name among splatter freaks in the German language area, and aside from Andreas Schnaas ("Violent S***" trilogy) and Andreas Bethmann ("Der Todesengel") he was the most active so called "amateur" splatter director in the 1990s. His first three movies "Black Past", "The Burning Moon" and "Premutos" are entertaining gratuitous gorefests with excellent gore effects and technically quite good (except for the dialogue that was always poorly dubbed during post production). But without a doubt, his three gorefests are superior to the work of the to Andreases mentioned above. Concerning the plot and the dubbing, "Riverplay" undoubtedly is superior to Ittenbach's earlier films, and the film itself is a homage to John Boorman's "Deliverance" and similar films, although it's not a revenge movie as such. There are some cool twists and psychologically highly interesting characters, and the story keeps on going during the entire running time: it never gets stuck or becomes tedious (frequently a problem in "amateur" productions when they try to tell a story). The only problem is that the actors are not very good (which is also a recurring problem with "amateur" productions), and because the script offers such psychologically interesting dialogues and riveting story development, the lack of convincing acting only becomes more obvious.
Review: Screaming Dead opens with a scantily clad young girl (EI Cinema's latest regular, cutie AJ Khan) tied down to some devious torture chamber device as an apparently evil photographer snaps photos of the terrified young girl (who really believes she is about to meet her doom, no...really!). Of course all of this is only a set up to let the viewer in on just how demented of a genius (s'posed genius, that is) photog Roger Neal (Joseph Ferrell) really is. Anyway, the deal is that Roger takes these sick B&W photos of young women and sells them for about 10,000 a piece (makes sense to me). Oddly enough, the young girls work for free, just for the prestigious opportunity to actually be in a Roger Neal photograph, or at least this is what his assistant Maura (played by Rachel Robbins) tells us Moving along, Roger has arranged to have his latest shoot o' perversion (with three lovely young ladies) to take place at an old abandoned mental institution. However, he wasn't counting on the 'chiseled out of stone' Sam Rogan (Rob Monkiewicz) to baby sit (and offer much friction) during the entire event. Now, who these lovely young women actually are is really not so meaningful, they have names like Lauren and Bridget (Misty Mundae), but this is really not all that important. Through the telling of a campfire tale (sans the actual campfire) it's brought to light that a maniac with a penchant for torturing young ladies used to reside in a secret room in the building (big surprise, huh?). Blah, blah, blah, and yadda, yadda, yadda, all hell breaks loose the final 20-minutes of the film.
Review: An unspeakable act of cruelty sets the stage for horror in this evocatively-titled thriller spanning the supernatural from World War II to today, as a defiled and betrayed family haunts her persecutors from the Tao Tao Mansion
Review: Crazy horror/monster-type film from Hong Kong about a half-snake/half-human woman who escapes burning to live with a human man. She is impregnated and lays her eggs hoping to keep the species alive. As with a lot of these Hong Kong films, a couple of other sub-plots develops and next thing you know there’s sex, murder/conspiracies and a vengeful ending in which the snake woman has her revenge! This film is rated Category III (NC-17) and so contains scenes of nudity, sex, violence, gore and supernatural situations…In other words, it’s a must see!
Review: A publicist's agent seeks to purchase the rights to the life story and estate of cult movie icon of early 20th Century.

Review: In 1968, Silvio Amadio directed L'isola delle svedesi (Island of the Swedes) (1969), the story which bordered on the dramatic and erotic genre about two lesbian women and the arrival of a third party in their ménage, a young boy, which leads to tragic consequences. The script was by Roberto Natale, who had already worked with Mario Bava and who went on to write Peccati di gioventù (So Young, So Lovely, So Vicious...) for Amadio where the lesbian theme is tackled in a similar way to the previous film. The female “special love” trend was a reality which was already consolidated in European cinema of this genre, following the huge success of Les biches by Claude Chabrol (1968) and Le salamandre by Alberto Cavallone (1969). This was a popular theme with the audiences and in the case of Peccati di gioventù includes the attraction represented by Gloria Guida, an actress who was rising to stardom and who owed her film debut to Silvio Amadio who discovered her and brought out the best in her more than any other director. Alongside Gloria Guida was the beautiful Dagmar Lassander, who also created a chromatic contrast (the blonde Guida, Lassander the red-head), which in the erotic scenes interpreted by them with the wild and contaminated natural landscape of Sardegna (where the film is set) as background, the fascinating vision of everything (it must be mentioned that the images of their “intimate moments” the actresses experienced together in the film were published in many glamour magazines of that time causing a great stir). Silvio Amadio's film, not only in the formal beauty or the exploitation aspect, disguises the interest because even the structure of the psychological nature of the characters and the game played by them are described in great detail by the script written by Roberto Natale. Invisible for many years, Peccati di gioventù can be seen for the first time in home video format, in the original uncut version.

Review: A couple on their honeymoon spend the night at a castle. Little do they know that there are some sinister things going on. Eventually they get caught up in the peversion and mayhem. The married couple are both attractive to look at (especially the bride, who is stunning), and there's enough nudity to satisfy even the most jaded of viewers. Soft-core regular Jane Tsentas makes an appearance and does a lot with a very small role. No dialog, as they hadn't the budget for sound. Instead, there is a voice-over narration. Good, harmless fun.

Review: 'Nekro' is a short film (about ten minutes or so) that has little in the way of plot and virtually no dialogue. What it does have is probably the most powerful 10 minutes of horror cinema you're ever likely to see...and some! Ultra violent and sexually graphic, 'Nekro' is a stunning little film that will both shock and scare you with its undiluted high impact onslaught of brutal horror.
Review: Rob is an employee at Joe`s Streetcleaning Agency, a roving team of misfits who visit roadside accidents and clean up the mess. He lives with his girlfriend Betty in a small Berlin flat. Pictures of centerfold models and serial killers decorate the walls. Human body parts are neatly displayed, floating in formaldehyde, sealed in glass jars. Rob adds to his collection daily, much to Betty`s delight. Not content with body parts alone, one day Rob surprises Betty by presenting her with a bloated corpse pulled from a swamp. Betty is overjoyed, and with the rotten corpse between them, they pledge undying love. But all good things must end. Betty soon becomes enamored with the corpse, and leaves Rob alone, taking it with her as a parting gift. Unable to cope with this loss, Rob travels a twisted road of sickness and self-abuse before finding salvation and happiness through a very sharp knife. Completed in 1987, Nekromantik shocked the world, proving that director Jörg Buttgereit and low budget filmmaking were forces to reckon with. Not for the squeamish, Nekromantik was always presented uncut and unrated. Featuring some of the darkest, most stomach-churning scenes ever commited to celluloid, JB`s Nekromantik has been lauded by critics as the first post-modern horror film. German with english subtitles track.

Review: A Japanese short film in the tradition of the Guinea Pig series. Some nasty looking monster dude wearing an over coat and mask goes after a group of people doing research of some sort at a lab. In the opening scene, an old man has his eye pulled out in graphic detail, making the famous "Zombie eye gouge" look tame. This is just a warm up to the ultimate kill scene where some chick has broken test tubes jammed inside of her causing hose-like gushers of blood to come spraying out. Then the monster pulls her tongue out for good measure
Review: This is a rather silly little film about a man whose rubber sex doll comes alive and tries to kill him. It has spoof-like scenes from other horror films, has the doll imitates scenes from The Shining & The Exorcist. It's just like a female sex mad version of Chucky from Child's Play. It passes 16 minutes away though.
Review: Black Rituals Of Satanic Sex Cults is a fantastic collection of perverted short films sure to tickle the fancy of any smut aficionado. Sure, the audio and video quality isn't perfect but these are old underground loops, they never did look that good in the first place. This compilation is pretty hard to take as a seriously 'evil' set of films, but it sure does contain some truly odd films and offers plenty of chills, thrills and sexy hairy thrills for the more adventurous viewers out there in sleaze land.The kind of thing that would make the devil rise in appreciation. :D

The final showdown reaches splatter orbit as the kid is split in half and the now full grown and very pissed off demon emerges With rape, nudity, necrophilia, defenestration, worm-filled cake eating and an inspired edit where a scene of the possessed kid beating off in his bedroom cuts to a close up of a can of Coke being popped open.

Review: Killer Pussy opens much like Peter Jackson’s Braindead, during a crazy jungle expedition near the Okavango Delta in the Republic of Botswana. Like Braindead, some explorers run into a few red-garbed tribal folks, ending with a member of the crew becoming infected. This time, instead of a rat-monkey, a sorry someone is infected by a parasite resembling a pissed off Aylmer (Brain Damage). Instead of a bite causing infection, she is penetrated while sitting on the group’s Styrofoam container. Thus begins a typically zany Japanese journey. Jump to some time in the future. A group of five (two guys and three gals) enter an abandoned building at the end of a wooded path. Their purpose is to spend the night in the building to have sex, drink booze and party. The ladies waste no time busting out the booze, and out of their clothing. One couple explores the vicinity away from the others. When they run into a mysterious chamber containing a frozen naked woman (our original penetrated personality) wrapped in plastic. They simply continue on their merry way, until they find a room containing a giant square tub of water, readily filled to the brim for willing participants. The couple returns to the others to drink and dance, while the cinematographer, gets as close to the ladies crotch’s and breast’s as possible, in a sequence of upbeat catchy Japanese music. Next, cut to one of the girls soaping her body outside the bathtub-oasis as she sings strangely “If You’re Happy and You Know It” (I guess she’s happy). She enters the tub, and before long, our mysterious plastic wrapped woman enters the room and joins her in the pool. The strange lady’s face is blank and pale, and before long, the two are diking it out in the water. A tadpole-like creature protrudes from one mouth to another, and we now have a new infected. Leaving the water, our new tainted temptress walks along a hall and enters another room, leaving a trail of breadcrumbs ala “Little Red Riding Hood”, but instead of a trail of breadcrumbs, a repulsive trail of parasitic vaginal bile. Impressed by the pile of toxic love juice, her significant other follows her into the room; excited at his enhanced chances of getting laid. After all she’s obviously horny, look at all that green goo!! Our horny hopeful gets his wish, but the Sexual Parasite makes him pay for it… with his life. Will the others succumb to this very fate?

She feels 302 is rejecting her love, by failing to enjoy her intricate meals. To prove her love, 302 makes the ultimate sacrifice (in a Christlike manner) . Even in subtitles, this movie loses very little of the emotion it jams down your throat.

Review: Was APOCALYPSE NOW or THE DEER HUNTER a big hit in Thailand? Add some really bad English dubbing and lots of kung-fu movie sound effects and you've got this adventure-horror hybrid. It's a horrors-of-war exploitation film that takes the violence inherent in warfare to absurd extremes. Besides the usual bullet hits and sharp-spiked jungle booby traps you get limb chopping, decapitation, penis stabbing, eye gouging and a spike to the head followed by brain eating (hence the title). One hungry guy even eats the maggots off of a decomposing corpse! Blood flows and spurts to such ridiculous lengths that it's hard not to laugh at the cartoonish brutality on view here. The video box says: SO REALISTIC -- THIS FILM MAKES "PLATOON" LOOK LIKE A FAMILY OUTING! I can't argue with hype like that!

One at a time, the students are murdered for food by the evil Leatherface in horrifying ways. Sally soon finds herself an involuntary guest at Leatherface's home, and flees into the night to escape the demented cannibal and his loudly-buzzing chainsaw. Can she escape the grim fate that befell her friends & brother? Based on the terrifying true story of Ed Gein.
Review: A documentary about the classic 'Texas Chainsaw Massacre' film, including interviews with Gunnar Hansen (LEATHERFACE), Edwin Neal (THE HITCHHIKER), John Dugan (GRANDPA) and Jim Seidow (OLD MAN).
Review: Barely released in the U.S. and ignored by all but the most fanatical arthouse deviants, this surreal French satire is steeped in pitch-black weirdness. And even when writer/director Claude Faraldo loses his (tenuous) intellectual footing and settles for pure gonzo silliness, this surrealistic vision of an Everyman's mental breakdown is worth a look, if only for its audacity. But the most inspired aspect of this Working Class Rant is the fact that nobody on-screen utters a single word of intelligible dialogue, with the entire story told in grunts, howls or simple gibberish. At first glance, the middle-aged Themroc (Michel Piccoli) seems like your typical, brutish, dirty-undershirted factory laborer. And his day goes straight into the crapper once he arrives at his dreary job, and is called onto the carpet after playing voyeur on a manager and his leggy secretary. With a lifestyle this demeaning and repetitious, it's no big surprise when Themroc suddenly goes bonkers, and for the first time in his miserable life, breaks free of his 9-to-5 shackles. The second he gets home, this disgruntled wacko wrecks his apartment (unlike modern-day Americans, who'd prefer to grab a gun and shoot their boss) and begins acting like a modern-day Neanderthal. To the dismay of his grey-haired hag of a mom, Themroc begins fondling his sister (sultry Beatrice Romand, best known for somnambulistic Eric Rohmer fare like CLAIRE'S KNEE) and transforms his dreary li'l flat into a literal urban cave (to match his new-found primitive desires) by knocking a huge, ragged hole in the side of his building, then tossing all his modern conveniences into the courtyard. Further chaos appears in the form of the local police, who are threatened by Themroc's anti-social activities (not to mention, the fact that Themroc's actions begin encouraging his uptight neighbors to do the same). But they're easily repelled by our urban savage, who holds the heavily-armed troops at bay (imagine if Ionesco had adapted DOG DAY AFTERNOON). Better still, what's the poor guy supposed to do for food during all this turmoil? How about bringing a policeman home for dinner? Literally. Right down to barbecuing him on a spit (and in one of the flick's best visual gags, the filmmakers use a pig carcass in place of the cooked cop). Don't get the false impression that this is continual, gale-force insanity though, because it's slow going at first, and Faraldo tackles his themes with all the subtlety of a drunk with a chainsaw. Of course, this type of sledgehammer storytelling is nothing new for Faraldo, whose earlier work included LA JEUNE MORTE in which a father and son are eaten by dogs, and BOF!, featuring a striking worker who plans to murder his wife and take up with his daughter-in-law. One thing's for sure: You certainly get the feeling that Faraldo, the cast and crew had a ball during the production. Especially the raw 'n' commanding Piccoli, who had a knack for embracing oddball projects throughout the '70s, including Marco Ferreri fare such as LA GRANDE BOUFFE and THE LAST WOMAN. Well, this flick takes the prize for being one of his most bizarre choices, with Piccoli going so far as to fund much of the movie out of his own pocket...It's obvious why nobody seems to make movies like this anymore. Because Faraldo is unsparing in his ridicule, while giving the finger to corporate scum, police, family, and lemming neighbors. After sitting through this non-verbal diatribe, you can imagine that if Faraldo hadn't gotten into filmmaking, he probably would have ended up as one of those aging crackpots who stand on street corners, screaming their conspiracy theories at the top of his lungs. (On the other hand, since we haven't heard much about the guy recently, he might be doing that at this very moment.) This crude 'n' rude social satire grabs Civilized Behavior by the balls and twists 'em off in the name of audacious laughs and puddle-deep polemics. Without question, it's best appreciated by every working class slob who ever wanted to chuck it all into the trash and revert back to simpler, Cro-Magnon pleasures of the flesh.
Review: In 1978 in Hong Kong, a grisly murder takes place. Eight years later, on a Macao beach, kids discover the severed hands of a fresh victim. A squadron of coarse, happy-go-lucky cops investigate, and suspicion falls on Wong Chi Hang, the new owner of Eight Immortals Restaurant, which serves delicious pork bao. The hands belong to the missing mother of the restaurant's former owner; he and his family have disappeared; staff at the restaurant continue to go missing; and, Wong can't produce a signed bill of sale: but there's no evidence. The police arrest Wong and try to torture him into a confession. Can they make him talk? And what was in those pork bao?
Review: The blood flows freely in this sequel to the first Untold Story, which now finds Anthony Wong Chau-Sang in a different role; in a film that is just as violent and frightening as the original. An unhappily married couple invite the wife's beautiful cousin, who has survived a horrifying experience in Mainland China, to live with them. She has her own special way of overcoming hardship and becomes the master of the barbecue.
Review: This one is based on an actual case. Although no body or evidence of a crime was found, 4 young men was pleaded guilty for murder. This is their story! I know the Untold series is famous for it's gore, so if that's what you want keep away from this one. Ok, a body is dismembered, but thats it! If you want a nicely written and directed (disturbing)crime story based on actual events, you should check this one out! The only problem is the strange humor, which seems out of place in a movie about a serious as this one.
