Hey, it’s been a long time. You know, as usual. We’re back today with a new review!
A Touch of Sex (1975)
Nerdy songwriter Mark is getting nowhere fast. To help out, a friend invites him to swinging Los Angeles. However, Mark’s naive romanticism does not bode well for his chances of making it in sinful SoCal.
Hello again, everyone! New review for you today…
INTERNATIONAL PROSTITUTION: BRIGADE CRIMINELLE
The venerable Joe D’Amato wasn’t the only director to see the value of photographing Laura Gemser undraped in exotic locales. Her career was truly international, with romps through the United States, Egypt, Greece and, for Sergio Gobbi’s INTERNATIONAL PROSTITUTION: BRIGADE CRIMINELLE, Hong Kong. A police thriller, the film is a change of pace for Gemser. Here she enjoys a more relaxed role than that of the globe-trotting, bed-hopping Black Emanuelle.
Hello again! Back in 2015, I had the very great honor of having an article published in CINEMA SEWER, accompanied by jaw-dropping illustrations by the great Robin Bougie. With Robin’s blessing, I am now sharing that article on The Grindhouse Effect. CREATED BY CINEMA: THE ENIGMA OF AJITA WILSON is an exploration of the undiminished allure of the late Ms. Wilson. So many questions linger about her life…but would the answers, and the light they would shed on this mysterious figure, dimish the ongoing fascination genre fans have for this statuesque beauty?
You can read the article HERE.
Until next time!

Wow…has it really been just shy of a year since the last update? Well, I guess I better trot out something fun and rare to make up for it!
I’m excited to present this rarity from my collection. Laura Gemser, Black Emanuelle herself, recorded this single in 1980. I’ve ripped the vinyl and cleaned up the recording the best I can. I hope you enjoy it! The song was later used in the closing credits of the Gemser vehicle VIOLENCE IN A WOMEN’S PRISON. This can be heard below, and on the SOUNDS page.
Crazy Eyes (And We’ll Love Again) written by Thierry Durbet, B. Chatenet and H. Banks. A PSP Production. © 1980, RCA.
If you would like to share this around, I have also uploaded the song to the YouTube channel. You can find the tune here.
See you again soon!
