Jess Franco gets down'n'dirty once again
24 June 2020
Warning: Spoilers
Married playboy Antonio (a suavely slimy portrayal by Antonio Mayans) invites his lusty young mistress Julia (nicely played to the sultry hilt by luscious longtime Franco muse Lina Romay) to live with him at his fancy house around the same time that his wife Martina (fetching blonde Rocio Freixis) is being released from an asylum.

Naturally, Franco relates the engrossingly sordid story at a deliberate pace and completely wallows in a deliciously decadent and depraved atmosphere while still delivering plenty of tasty bare female flesh and lots of scorching hot raunchy sex. Franco's use of long takes and Daniel White's brooding score further enhance the overall mood of druggy debauchery. Moreover, the three main characters are really cruel, jaded, and deceitful rotters, with only Juan Soler as browbeaten simpleton guitarist Fenul eliciting any sympathy from the viewer. Good sleazy fun.
