The Corruption remains a beautiful looking movie, but one with an identity crisis about whether it’s erotica or more serious art. 5.5/10

I can’t believe I’m saying this about a film that had a human sacrifice that descended into funky naked dancing, but Caribbean Papaya is pretty boring. 3.4/10
Being an above average Jess Franco film still means this is still a bad film by any other metric. 3.1/10
Emilienne doesn’t have a strong enough story nor notable enough erotica. It’s very much a film meant to ride the coattails of an earlier, more successful movie. 3.6/10
Blue Rita is almost camp. It’s only stopped because despite all the lesbianism, it’s still too overtly heterosexual and too damn horny to fully cross that line. 3.3/10
he Coming of Sin has some of the worst sexual politics I’ve seen in a movie. It doesn’t like women but also isn’t even competent enough to explain why it doesn’t like women. 1.7/10
Given everything I knew about Sinner: The Secret Diary of a Nymphomaniac (basically, its title and director), I expected it to be a lot worse. 5.0/10
Watching How To Seduce a Virgin or really, any of Jess Franco’s movies makes me remember that I only like his output hypothetically and rarely in actual practice.
