THE HOUSE OF LOST WOMEN has to be one of Jess Franco's worst-ever movies, an entirely plotless affair seemingly designed to show off acres and acres of bare flesh, typically from his ageing real-life wife Lina Romay. At least half of the running time seems occupied with mindless scenes of pleasuring set on beds or couches. The plot, what little exists of it, is a sleazy and unwholesome exploration of taboo between the members of a small family on a remote island, but the acting is barely noticeable. The scenes involving the mentally challenged younger sister are among the most exploitative and repellent I've seen.
