(More customer reviews)I liked this. I bought it together with Franco's "Mansion of the Living Dead" and while I found the latter disappointing, this earlier work from 1981 is closer to the classic Franco that I enjoy. It is sexploitation done well and with class. Lina Romay is in her second role as the blond-wigged Candy Coster. She is fuller-bodied than in her previous films but not as chunky as in "Living Dead". Here she plays the lovely Alice Brookes who has recurrent nightmares about a black Princess and her slaves. For some reason, the trio repeatedly attack and ravish her. She takes a trip to the Princess' desert island home to find out more. Her husband also goes in search of the Princess and ends up enslaved. What does Princess "Oingo-Boingo" have in store for Alice? Well the plot's just an excuse for naked bodies and kinky sex. The black transexual, Ajita Wilson plays Princess Obongo. Kudos to her plastic surgeon. She looks perfect. Take Amazon's editorial comments with a pinch of salt. It doesn't quite amount to the "fever dream of unbridled depravity" or "erotic shocker" as advertised, but it is still fun to sit through. Highlights include the Spanish couple who are led around like dogs on leashes, Alice's libidinous welcome by the Princess and her slaves and a nice scene with the ivory phallus...
Watch for Jess Franco's extended cameo as the local "retard" at the beach resort. The film is beautifully shot on Gran Canaria on Spain's Canary Islands.
Once again, Severin impresses with its beautiful transfer of the fully restored and remastered print. It is presented in its original 2.35:1 OAR (Anamorphic) and looks simply gorgeous. The original Spanish 2.0 Mono track is provided with optional English subtitles. The only Extra is a 22-minute interview segment with Franco and his wife Lina Romay. They discuss the film, Ajita's sexuality, how they met and how they've stayed together for over 20-years. Interestingly, Franco conducts the entire interview in English while Lina Romay speaks completely in Spanish. Optional English subtitles are provided and I'd advise you to turn them on, more to understand Franco's garbled English than Romay's Spanish.

It is the film that shocks even the most hardcore connoisseursof Euro-Sex sagas, a fever dream of unbridled depravity from the bizarremind of writer/director Jess Franco! The ever-alluring Lina Romay - as heralter ego 'Candy Coster' - stars as a young wife haunted by erotichallucinations of the mysterious Princess Obongo (an eye-poppingperformance by allegedly transsexual Ajita Wilson of SADOMANIA fame). Butthis self-proclaimed 'Goddess Of Unspeakable Lust' has still more in storefor this yuppie sexpot and her unsuspecting husband, including lesbianecstasy, frenzied threesomes, bisexual orgies and beyond!Robert Foster(MANSION OF THE LIVING DEAD) and Jess Franco himself co-star in this lushlyatmospheric and relentlessly erotic shocker, now fully restored from therecently discovered original negative, with all-new Bonus Materialsfeaturing Jess & Lina, and presented totally uncut & uncensored for thefirst time ever in America!
