Agent 69 Jensen i Skorpionens tegn

This is probably the best of the Danish porn comedies from the mid 1970s - at least it is the one with the best production values. These films were fairly unique in that they combined genuine attempts at slapstick comedy (using some veterans from the Olsenbanden pictures) with equally genuine hardcore porn. The only other film I know of that goes anywhere near these areas is Britain's Come Play With Me, but the tight integration of these genres witnessed in the Danish pictures, especially this one, is completely unique.

While much of the humour falls flat this is more than compensated by a genuine sense of wackiness. The film has enormous curiosity value, and shows lots of apparent enthusiasm and energy.

Concerning the sexual intercourses, it appears as if Anna Bergman, Ingmar's daughter, had been body-doubled for her coital scene, while Gina Jansen, who is perhaps best known as the governor's girlfriend in Jess Franco's Sadomania, was at it herself.

European spy spoofs were very big in the 1960's, but by the late 1970's they seemed pretty passe, not to mention pretty unnecessary since the "serious" spy movies like the Bond film "Moonraker" had pretty much sunk into self-parody. This Danish film though adds a very 70's element into the mix--hardcore pornography! Actually, anyone looking for hardcore sex will probably be disappointed as the graphic sex scenes are few and far between, and are all lacking the "money shot". It was typical in Europe at the time to insert brief hardcore sequences into even some of the most innocuous films when they were showing in more liberal markets like Scandanavia. The only difference here is the "inserts" actually seem to have filmed at the same time and involve some, but not all, of the same talent. This film is somewhat similar to "Le Porno Killers" or the unedited version of "Thriller-a Cruel Picture" in this respect, but while those are very sleazy films, this is a light-hearted comedy, which makes the hardcore sex scenes especially jarring. On the plus side, however, this is far better than than any of the American porn parodies of the era. It isn't too funny, but at least it isn't painfully un-funny.

The only recognizable actress here is Anna Bergman, the daughter of the famous Swedish director Ingemar, who otherwise mostly appeared in British sex comedies with Mary Millington and Suzy Mandel. (She actually has a "hardcore" scene here, but she uses a very obvious body double).

But I'm forgetting something--oh yeah, the plot. Well, it's some nonsense about a secret spy agency run by a guy named "the Scorpion" operating out of health food store. An older female Mata Hari type sends her incredibly dim son in to intercept a delivery in order to take revenge on "the Scorpion" who killed the son's father years earlier, right after they had sex for the first and only time. Really the only interesting thing about this (besides it being the "hardcore" debut of the daughter of an internationally-renowned film director) is that the opening sex scene between the Mata Hari and her lover might be the only hardcore porn sequence in history to lead to an actual conception (within the world of the movie, of course). Otherwise though, this movie is not un-entertaining, but is not too remarkable either

I'm not into hardcore but this movie was very watchable and entertaining. It's practically a regular 1970's comedy but with lots of gratuitous nudity with some very beautiful ladies and with some hardcore scenes thrown in for some reason, but the sex scenes were not long and drawn out like most hardcore or modern softcore movies and many were funny as well. I wish I'd been able to find a version that was dubbed or something but it's really not that necessary and was fun to watch and easy to follow even without knowing what they said, especially if you're already familiar with comedy from the seventies.

I skorpionens tegn! I never forgot the Danish title of this great erotic movie that I first saw in a cinema in Holland, the country where I grew up.

It is a film in James Bond style. In common with the Bond films it has the humor throughout the film although this is more towards slapstick. It also has love scenes but unlike the Bond films it shows all the juicy details. Nevertheless it's a real nice film, far better than the majority of porn films, it's good for a laugh and it's been filmed beautifully with spectacular dance-scenes and some nice classical music.

It tells about a microfilm that gets lost and eastern as well as western and Danish secret services are after it. Literally everything is done to obtain it again. Anna Bergman, a beautiful young woman, is a joy to watch. When you read this review you will understand why I liked it so much.

This film is an absolute must, especially compared to the majority of porn movies which are not romantic, drenched with the naked facts, while they lack a storyline! Compared to those this film is a relieve.

I was really delighted when - years later - I could get hold of this film (Scorpio Stings)on VHS, together with 3 others from the series featuring the other horoscope signs Taurus, Leo and Sagittarius.

Try to get one and enjoy. I watched the films from this series over and over...

In the world of espionage, Agent 69 Jensen (Ole Søltoft) is a horny hero with a license to thrill. This 1977 Danish erotic comedy, directed by Werner Hedman, is a raunchy romp through the genre of spy movies, delivering laughs, thrills, and plenty of skin. With a style reminiscent of James Bond, the film offers a humorous take on the classic secret agent formula, spiced up with explicit sex scenes.

Agent 69 Jensen i Skorpionens tegn (Agent 69 in the Sign of Scorpio) doesn't take itself too seriously. The plot follows Agent Jensen as he awaits his next mission while working undercover at a convenience store. Soon enough, he's tasked with delivering a microfilm to the CIA, but the villainous Scorpio sends his best agent, Matty Hari (Gina Janssen), to intercept it. What follows is a hilarious and sexy cat-and-mouse game, with Jensen's incompetence and libido often getting the better of him.

The film doesn't hold back on the adult content, and one scene in particular stands out. Jensen finds himself in a compromising position with Matty Hari, who uses her seductive skills to try and obtain the microfilm. The scene is an erotic dance of lust and desire, a sensual spy-vs-spy encounter that ends with both agents satisfied but no closer to their mission objectives.

While the movie has its moments of hilarity and heat, it does tend to meander, especially in the second half. The parody elements are well-executed, but the story loses focus at times, and the jokes don't always land. However, fans of over-the-top spy comedies and explicit erotica will find something to enjoy here.

Overall, Agent 69 Jensen i Skorpionens tegn is a fun and frisky ride through the world of secret agents, with a healthy dose of Danish humor and sexuality. It's a film that embraces its B-movie status and delivers on its promise of entertainment for adults only.
