And When She Was Bad...

Films with plots like this are the reserve of the 70's when it seemed every film had to out sleaze the last.

This film's basic plot as an estranged stepfather Ken (John Alderman),10 years after splitting with his wife gets a visit from his attractive teenage step daughter Sharon (Lyllah Torena) only it turns out shes a raving nymphomaniac who plays games between him and his new partner Rita (Heather Vale),and we are not talking games of cards or scrabble here.

What really turns this from being just a standard soft-core porn film is the artsy direction from Gary Graver(some of the outdoor location shooting is awesome giving this such a fine of its time feel) and as well as the incestuous sleazy plot there's enough odd dialogue and warped peeping tom behaviour to hold most none porn viewers attention.

I don't wanna write about the sex scenes but I'd have to say that my favourite none porn section was when the new partner Rita describes a dream she had where she had no arms but learnt to do everything with her feet,odd warped exploitation fun all be it very questionable morals wise,I give (6 out of 10)

If you can imagine Roman Polanski's Repulsion remade as a low-budget 70's softcore sex flick, you'll have some idea what this movie is like. A pretty teenage girl comes to live with her ex-stepfather and his new girlfriend, neither of whom seem to notice that she is a psychotic nymphomaniac even after she constantly wanders around naked, asks to sleep in their bed, spies on them having sex, tries to seduce her stepfather, and successfully seduces the girlfriend. The best scene though is her ill-fated encounter with a libidinous bible salesman while her "parents" are in Las Vegas. Not that it is necessarily a good movie. It doesn't make a lot of sense and it is heavily padded with boring scenes of people endlessly talking or pointless tracking shots of the LA and Vegas skylines. But is interesting to see a film like this that actually has somewhat of a real plot and, moreover, isn't afraid to be downbeat or even downright disturbing. It would have made a great double bill with The Toy Box, an even more bizarre and unnerving early 70's sex flick.
