(aka "Perversion Flash" or "Flash Light" or "She Died with Her Boots On")
Directed by José Ramón Larraz (as J.R. Larrath)
Denmark |
UK 1970
One of the most underrated and oft-neglected genre filmmakers of his generation,
Spanish-born director José Ramón Larraz (Symptoms)
finally receives his due with this collection of his work, the first of its
kind, bringing together a fascinating cross-section of films from the first half
of his lengthy cinematic career. *** A young man and his aunt live in a small cottage in the secluded woods in this X rated exploitation murder thriller. The aunt is into group sex and lesbianism while her nephew desires more than one partner for his satisfaction. He takes pictures of the action, particularly when a blonde female model from London joins in the fun. She is willingly seduced by the aunt and the nephew. She is forced to remain at the macabre cottage when she stumbles across photographic evidence in the darkroom. He films an attack and rape of the woman in the woods before the trio settles down to sipping whisky and playing strip poker. Karl Lanchbury, Vivian Neyes and Pia Anderson portray the three sex fiends. |

Arrow Video bring us the wild erotic thriller "Whirlpool" as part
of their "Blood Hunger: The Films Of Jose Larraz" 3-disc
Blu-ray
set. The film is housed on a dual-layered
Blu-ray
with a maxed-out bitrate. As per the image, the included booklet states,
"Whirlpool is presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.66:1 with
mono audio. The original 35mm camera negative element was scanned in 2K
resolution on a 4K Arriscan at Lasergraphics Director at EFilm, Burbank.
The film was graded on Digital Vision's Nucoda Film Master and restored
at R3Store Studios in London. The original mono mi was remastered from
the optical negatives at Deluxe Audio Services, Hollywood.
While "Whirpool" comes off looking the least polished of the
three films in this set, this is most likely the intended look of the
film. Grain is heavy throughout, yet certain moments especially
close-ups, show a surprising amount of detail. Shadows show a fair
amount of information, suggesting a healthy contrast. |
