Hello again! New in this update, a review of 1978’s naughty “thriller” ISLAND OF 1,000 DELIGHTS. It’s a film best summed up as: “Beautiful people do ugly things in beautiful places. Naked.” You can read the full review here.
Stay tuned for the next update, coming mid-week. There will be groovy new sleaze tunes on the sounds page and we’ll be spiffing up an old review to reflect a dazzling new Blu-Ray release! See you then!

What was the tragic secret that would make this successful mainstream star move into the world of hardcore sex films? Check out the article here.
Next up, a new wallpaper, this time based on the poster art for Lucio Fulci’s AENIGMA. Here’s a preview, check out the full size version here.
