Teenagers' mild erotica
Cristi_Ciopron29 September 2012
Warning: Spoilers
This is a sexy comedy for the kids. Three goons meet to present psychoanalytic cases, hence the four fantasies, two of which are recounted by the main goon, the eponymous Dr. Sex. This endearing, but crassly tasteless comedy features a few mild, childish, harmless fantasies—a girl (oddly built, square—shouldered) is spied while undressing, taking a bath and touching herself a bit—some mannequins come alive and spend their evenings talking with a worker, this sketch is a bit chilling—the exhibitionist _cutie, we would of enjoyed seeing more of her teen self; judging from the nipples and shape of the breasts, the adult version has to be Marsha—the house haunted by naked women. These are the four sketches; accordingly, the strippers show breasts and asses.

Marsha and the three women in the 4th fantasy deserve being seen naked.

Dr. Sex (1964)

* 1/2 (out of 4)

I've far as nudies go, I've seen a lot worse than this but I guess that's not very high of a recommendation. Ted V. Mikels directed this film, which clocks in at just 63-minutes and tells three different stories involving not sex but just nudity. One has a man turning into a dog. There's another dealing with someone fixated on mannequins. The final involves a man haunted by nude women cleaning his house. DR. SEX reminds me of how lucky guys have it today since if they want to see some nudity they just have to jump online and do a search. Watching movies like this make me respect those in the 60's that had to run out to a theater and watch something bad like this just so they could see a few boobs. This film is pretty bad for a number of reasons but I'm sure men back in 1964 were thankful for the naked ladies who show up here. As far as the story goes, none of the three are all that entertaining and especially one early one where the doctor talks about a woman and pretty much just narrates everything she's doing. She's getting home. She's getting undressed. She's pouring a bath. And so on. There are some unintentionally funny lines throughout the picture but it's doubtful this is what people are going to be interested in. At least all of the ladies are extremely cute and it's clear that Mikels could at least film them well.

Therapy Can Be Fun!

Warning: Spoilers
The late Ted V. Mikels was plainly more at home with violence than sex if this twee early exercise in titillation on his part in glorious Eastmancolor - in which nobody gets shot - is anything to go by.

Dr.Sex (Victor Sandor) convenes a meeting with two colleagues in his study to discuss four absurd case histories all somehow contriving to involve topless females; of which Dr. Diaphanous Lovejoy's sequence involving mannequins coming to life, and the sweetly Lolita-ish one-shot flashback to Dr. Emil Schmutz's patient's beginnings as an exhibitionist, display a modicum of visual invention.

At the film's conclusion the tall, feline, raven-haired and sternly bespectacled Dr.Lovejoy (Julia Calda) absents herself to make the coffee, which she returns with minus her glasses and most of her clothes; while Dr.Schmutz metamorphoses into a dog. Woof woof.

I didn't see Marsha Jordan

Almost all over the Internet Marsha Jordan is listed as one of the maids at the end of the movie. Marsha Jordan is one of my favorites of the era so I've seen her in several movies. But I think that not one of the maids looks like Jordan.

Not as good as it sounds. But then again, it was only the 60's

Mr. Ted V. Mikels first film is worthy of some attention. It deffinetly fills the bill when compared with other 'nudie-cutie' films like "Kiss Me Quick" or "The Immoral Mr. Tees".

Three stories are told by a group of psychologists (one doing a bad Bela Lugosi impression) about their wildest cases, as told to them by their patients.

It's funny, I guess - but ultimately a little boring; as films in the past twenty years have made us expect more, and more quickly.

It's worth watching if you like low budget cult films. Now if you can only find a copy......

It's meant to be an erotic comedy...
RodrigAndrisan29 December 2020
... but it's nothing but the greatest waste of time, even if it's only an hour and 3 minutes. You'll see some tits and some asses, that's all. One of the worst movies ever made. Zero stars!
