Bestialità

"Bestiality" was directed by Peter Skerl and co-written by infamous George Eastman of "Anthropohagus" and "Porno Holocaust" fame.This ultra-sleazy Italian thriller is about a young girl,who saw her mother having sex with the family dog.When the woman's husband returns home and sees this,he chains the dog to the house and sets it on fire.Years later this event turns little girl into a total nymphomaniac,who enjoys screwing various guests,who visit the island,where she lives with her dog."Bestiality" is a totally sleazy and politically incorrect film that shouldn't disappoint fans of Italian smut.Tons of sex and nudity with a little bit of zoophilia thrown in plus a surprisingly bloody and off-beat climax.The scene of woman having sex with her black dog is obviously simulated,but the idea of such behavior left me speechless.So if you are a fan of trashy and sleazy Italian exploitation you can't go wrong with "Bestialita".8 out of 10.

Despite a bestiality theme and the presence of Ilona "Ciciolona" Staller, this is actually a surprisingly boring movie. The opening is a doozy though. A young girl is playing outside her family's island villa when she hears strange noises. She looks in the window to see her mother going at it with the family pooch! This jaw-dropping scene is patently ridiculous (and obviously simulated--dogs don't usually favor the missionary position). Also, aside from turning on very perverted men, there is no real reason for a woman to WANT to have relations with a dog. It's not like they're great lovers (they're not very well-endowed, they're in a big hurry, and they slobber a lot). Anyway, the father walks in on this beastly congress and is apparently not happy about being cuckolded by Fido, so he ties the dog up and sets the villa on fire!

It would be hard for the movie to top this, but it really doesn't even try. Instead, it cuts to some years later when a group of jaded bourgeois types come to the island. There is A LOT of talking and the pace becomes positively glacial (if it wasn't in Italian with no subtitles, I'd swear it had turned into a French film at this point). The now-grown girl (the very pretty Leanora Fani) is still lurking around, however, strangely with the same dog (who seems no worse for the wear). One of the male guests becomes infatuated with this feral girl after she steals his camera (and after he later walks in on his wife giving her a bath). I won't give away the rest, but expect some lesbianism and a threesome (or a foursome if you count the dog).

"Cicilona" water-skies topless and dances naked at a party at one point, but I can imagine any fans of her hardcore porn work who see this thinking she is in some kind of perverted "dog movie" are going to be VERY disappointed at this slow,arty effort. I actually watched this movie more for Leanora Fani, who is prettier and far more talented than Staller, but it's not her best film either. It kind of reminded me of "L'Uomo, La Donna, y La Bestia" in its combination of art and outrage, but while that film isn't boring for one second, this film is often nothing but.

On a remote island a young girl sees her mother having sex with a dog. The father interrupts, ties the dog to furniture, sets the house a fire then they leave. Years later, a couple comes to the island where a few other tourists are and soon meets the girl who has grown up a few years.

First, the main premise is about the dog. A YouTuber had posted (which was repeated by others) that the sex with the dog was real. Complete BS. Second, it actually is a very small part of the movie.

The main focus of the film is on the couple, an architect who is scoping out the island for construction and his wife who after ten years of marriage wants nothing more than a child. Plus in a small group of the eclectic tourists or locals the couple socializes with. Add in later as the couple gets friendly with the young girl.

The story is well made and gets more complex as it goes along. We get to learn about everyone on the island a little at a time. Most characters are multidimensional which kept it interesting. There is nudity. Not a lot, but not a little. Some what I thought were non-erotic sex scenes, none of which were explicit.

My expectations were to be mainly bored. This story would actually hold up on its own even without the dog or sex scenes. Decent movie to watch.

In these "enlightened times" I'm hard pressed to know if one should admit to having seen this movie, but considering that its actually a pretty good erotic sleaze film, I'll happily say I saw it.

The plot is told mostly in flashback. It begins with a young girl seeing her mom have (simulated) sex with a dog. Dad comes home drags mom and the girl away and then sets fire to the house with the dog inside. The film then jumps forward as we watch a man waiting for something. The story then flashes back as we see the man and his wife arrive at an island full of party people. Periodically the man and woman catch sight of a young woman with a dog. The woman looks like a younger version of the woman at the start. I'll leave it for adventurous film goers to unravel what happens next, though I will say while its often sexy it all ends badly.

Despite this film being in Italian, a language I don't speak, I rather enjoyed this movie. Sure its sleazy but at the same time it seems to be a well done drama with an "off-beat" edge. I had no problems following the plot. I liked that after the opening you were very much of balance wondering what sort of madness was going to show up. Granted its a cheap trick but it did help to keep things properly tense.

Obviously this is NOT for all tastes. I think most people will have shut it off during the opening credits. If you can get past them and don't mind sleazy sexy drama I think you'll enjoy this, on some level, if you're open to it...

...Just don't look for an English version of this film. I can't imagine anyone being bold enough to attempt to release this in either England or the US, its opening is just a bit too much for most people.

What can you say about this,,,its about the most sleazy film ever made,1st off don't forget its all simulated so don't be going all save the animals on it,,still I very much doubt it'll be coming to a videostore near you soon,the only directors who come close to this in the pure exploitation stakes are Renato Polselli and Andrea Bianchi.

The film starts in pure trashy 70's Italian sleaze top gear,with a woman being watched by her daughter having (I must say again thank heavens its simulated) sex with a rottweiler,she gets interrupted by her husband who ties the dog up and sets fire to the house with the dog inside,this all before the titles have finished,,move forward a bit in time,,,,and a set of mid life crises hit swingers move near said area and end up in a relationship with the daughter who's now a little bit older,,,from then on the sleaze really kicks in,,i don't wanna totally give away spoilers so I'll leave it at that,it all ends bloody which you can always be sure the Italian gaillo films will,fans of euro sleaze will i'm sure be happy with this film which I gave a 9-10 for sleaze content and a pretty fair 5 for the film itself,,,happy hunting folks
