Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS (1975)



Gene Siskel called it "the most degenerate picture I have seen to play downtown". He should have stuck with films more his style like the fawned over On Golden Pond, Yentl, and Tootsie. Gimme a break - what a chump.

Allyson Is Watching (1997)


A small town girl goes to the big city to make it as an actress. Along the way she encounters rapists, lesbians and murderers.

Dirty Love (1988)



A Joe D'Amato film starring Valentine Demy about a girl who leaves her small town to become a dancer in the big city. The title makes you think Dirty Dancing, but it's really more Fame and Flashdance.

The Price of Desire (1997)



A total and complete carbon-copy of Indecent Proposal. Indeed, all these nineties late-night cable erotic thrillers and dramas have their roots in the mainstream versions (ex. Basic Instinct, 91/2 weeks) which have their roots in film noir from decades past. Truth be told, I'd rather watch a late-night cable version (featuring Shannon Tweed, Kira Reed, or whoever) any day than the mainstream yawn fests.

Sexual Roulette (1997)



An erotic thriller in the vein of Indecent Proposal starring late night cable erotica heavyweights Tane McClure and Gabriella Hall.

The Beautiful, the Bloody, and the Bare (1964)



A photographer must kill when he sees red - red fingernail polish in particular. But don't think this is going to be some HG Lewis gore-fest. Easily three-fourths of the film's run time is spent just watching the killer take cheesecake photos.

La herencia del Tío Pepe (1998)



(AKA The Inheritance of Uncle Pepe) Director Hugo Sofovich makes the odd decision to return after a prolific streak in the seventies and into the eighties (including El telo y la tele), to direct this fairly throwaway sex comedy.

CHARACTERS
RATING: ★★★★★★☆☆☆☆ 6/10

REVIEW: High energy, relentless gags with plentiful nudity. However, all rather predictable and not especially funny. I'm sure Italian audiences were rolling in the aisles in 1980; not so much viewed forty years later.

SYNOPSIS

The exotic fruit that produces 'pomango' juice, an aphrodisiac. Dr. Paolo Lavetti (Luciano Salce) introduces the fruit to his medical colleagues. Bumbling buffoon, Dr. Luigi Frontoni (Renzo Montagnani) arrives late (as usual) to the meeting. He grabs a drink - not realizing he is slurping down the pomango juice. The effects are instantaneous. Signora Bigotti (Marina Hedman). With the aphrodisiac raging through his veins, Luigi has a hard time conducting this house call. As Luigi is going to town on his patient, Paolo is outside the room collecting bets.  All the doctors had wagered on whether this juice was for real. Luigi's next patient is dancer, Antonella (Verónica Miriel). Luigi tries to exercise control. It doesn't help that Antonella has the hots for him. Also note that Luigi is married.

Paolo is interested in commercializing pomango juice.  Again, he uses Luigi as a guinea pig. He has Sidonia (Andrea Guzon) waiting for him on the examination table. Il Capitano arrives and is mighty impressed. Luigi tries to hide Sidonia, but Paolo brings her back out in the open. When Luigi returns to the hotel at the conference, he finds Antonella in the shower. [Verónica Miriel delivers one helluva shower scene.] A Texas oilman, Harry Brakson (Roger Browne), has brought Antonella champagne. Luigi hides while Antonella acts suspicious and jittery. With Harry gone, Antonella is back to seducing Luigi. Luigi desperately tries to remain faithful to his wife.  He runs out of the room... but is slipped another dose of pomango.  He instantly starts humping the nearest female - which happens to be an older lady, (Trini Alonso). All hopped on pomango, Luigi rushes back to Antonella's room. 

But there's a big problem: Luigi's wife, Angelica (Olga Karlatos), arrives.  She doesn't catch them in the act, but she knows exactly what's been going on. Hilariously, she smacks him around with a smile. Angelica throws back her dress at the bar, giving Luigi a taste of his own medicine. The bartender, Factotum (Lucio Montanaro), gets an eyeful. Every time Luigi tries to cover her up, Angelica whips the dress back open. Paolo has snuck some of the pomango into Angelica's drink.  He's hoping it'll get her back with Luigi. The pomango takes immediate effect. It works its magic - Angelica and Luigi are all over each other. But the pomango is only so strong. Angelica resists the aphrodisiac's urges and resumes being mad at him, throwing things at him, etc.  Then will slip back into the pomango's control. Poor Luigi doesn't know what the hell is going on, but he just goes with it. Predictably, this pomango juice causes all manner of compromising situations, misunderstandings, etc. resulting in a chaotic climax.
