(aka "Malizie di Venere" or "Venere in Pelliccia" or "Devil in the Flesh" or "Venus im Pelz" )
directed by Massimo Dallamano
Italy/Germany/Switzerland 1969
While
vacationing at a lake resort wealthy writer Severin (Régis
Vallée) meet photomodel Wanda (Laura Antonelli) who
likes to lounge about her cabin in a fur coat and
nothing else. This image recalls for Severin a childhood
memory of being beaten by the family maid for spying on
her and her lover. Severin and Wanda marry and he
instructs her to treat him as a slave and punish him. He
dresses up as her chauffeur and procures other men for
her. Things take a turn when Wanda meets a new lover who
is less than receptive to this arrangement. |

Previously available in an expensive fullscreen DVD from Japan (with only one instance of optical fogging), Massimo Dallamano's VENUS IN FURS is presented here in anamorphic widescreen 2.35:1 looking as nice as the original elements probably allow (2-perf Techniscope and soft focus photography) but was cut by 1 minute by the BBFC (the cut footage is available as streaming video at Shameless's website - as is the footage cut from their NEW YORK RIPPER release). There is naturalistic grain throughout and a little bit of blocking in some of the dark shots.
The Italian DVD that is now available
is likely the cut reissue version since it is listed under the title
VENERE IN PELLICCIA rather than the film's original Italian release
title LE MALIZIE DE VENERE. |
