The future British Lion of independently produced, low-budget, high-impact Splatter Norman J. Warren's audaciously salacious 'Nudie Cutie' 'Her Private Hell' proved to be a scurrilously flesh-flashing Box Office shattering, bra-bursting sensation, zealously soiling the minds and rumpled raincoats of a smut-starved Britain, tenaciously remaining on London cinema screens for an entire year! Exotically pretty Latinate brunette Marisa (Lucia Modugno) is lured to the heady environs of a monochromatically swinging 60s London, strongly beguiled by the offer of glamorous, well-paid modelling work, but the handsome, ingenuous Marisa very quickly finds herself both emotionally and financially ensnared by the dark machinations of the model agencies callous boss Neville (Robert Crewdson), summarily being used and abused by manipulative, perma-sweaty in-house photographer, and flash-pad renting cad Bernie (Terry Skelton), her considerable 'talents' aggressively sought after by the more groovy, sylph-waisted, switched-on shutter-bug Matt (Daniel Ollier), and it isn't too long until the boozy parties, petty jealousies, increasingly illicit photo shoots, and devious double-dealing crudely coalesce around poor, beleaguered Marisa's far from 'model' life and becomes 'Her Private Hell'. With a sweetly endearing performance from luscious Lucia Modugno, some remarkably nimble film-making from first time feature director Norman J. Warren, and a perfectly pant-swingingly groovy score by funk master John Scott, 'Her Private Hell' is a still brightly glistering skinflick, its lurid lustre undimmed by the passage of time.
