loved the movie, hated the iamge quality! what's happened???? it almost looks like a bootleg....
 
I really liked the contrast between the sexy, carefree couple of muti & lovelock and the repressed, depressed Papas. Papas may not have been what Lenzi had in mind originally, but she brings something sinister to the film. With Carroll Baker, it would have been just about sex. with Papas, she's really the frustrated, isolated, repressed wife of a millionaire who's really challenged by the sexual freedom of the young couple.
Baker on the other hand wouldn't have been believable playing a sexually repressed woman, at least I can't imagine it.

I liked this film a lot. Best Lenzi film i've seen. The quality of the disc isn't the best but its nce to have the film available on dvd.

Well, it's easy to picture this as a more cynical reworking of ORGASMO with not only more of a contrast between the characters but also a switch in point of view.
