Summary Review: Bizarre

An erotic story of a girl who gets sent to a school where a dangerous criminal lives and rapes the girls after playing little dress up games.

If you're looking for a simple spanking flick, you're going to be disappointed by the plot and all the digressions. But if you're more of a polymorphous pervert, this has straight sex scenes, lots of lesbianism, and interesting shower scenes where gaggles of naked girls climb en masse in and out of a single tub while their fellow students or the elderly caretakers pours water (or milk?!) on them.

There's a tasteless scene where a girl is made to strip and act like a dog, but it's mostly tasteless because she's a Jewish girl whose parents have disappeared without paying her tuition, leaving her to be singled out for extra abuse.

There's also a downright bizarre chariot-racing scene with some of the girls having to be the horses complete with whips and bridles.

Worth the money.

Joe D'Amato on hype about snuff content:

Infamous exploitation movie supposedly mixing hardcore, bestiality and a bizarre subplot about the making of torture and snuff movies. Joe D Amato had this to say about those scenes:

  ...we shot the 'snuff' scenes in 35mm. Afterwards we scratched the negative and we printed it as 8mm, then blew it up to give it the illusion of reality... I don't know people think it is real, it's just some bullshit.. it's only a movie, you know?

Joe D'Amato was asked how the rumor about the snuff footage being "real" got started and he had this to say:

...we shot that footage in a warehouse with a lot of "extras" (actors). One of the girls in the scene wanted to make more money then she was making as an extra, so she filed a lawsuit saying that she was really abused during the filming....

Needless to say that with an entire film crew as witness to the fake acting, she lost the case. However, the rumour managed to circulate as truth.

• 2011 Studio Canal Online
• 2011 Studio Canal DVD

The BBFC commented:

• Company chose to make cuts to four sequences to remove sight of unsimulated sexual detail (fellatio, vaginal penetration, masturbation, ejaculation) in order to obtain an 18 classification. An R18 classification without these cuts would have been available.
• In addition, company was required to make compulsory cuts to a scene of bestiality (unsimulated sight of a naked woman masturbating a horse), in accordance with the current interpretation of the Obscene Publications Act 1959. (Hopefully not caught by the Dangerous Pictures Act which prohibits only oral sex and intercourse with animals)
• Company was also required to make compulsory cuts to four sequences of sadistic and sexual violence (naked women being humiliated, tortured, raped, branded, strangled, mutilated, and being violently penetrated with spiked objects, poles and metal hooks).

• 2008 Optimum R2 DVD titled Emanuelle in Bangkok

The BBFC commented:

• Compulsory cuts were required to remove a scene of rape that eroticises and endorses sexual violence
• and to remove two sequences of unsimulated animal cruelty (a cockfight and a fight between a mongoose and a snake).
• In addition, the company chose to remove explicit shots of unsimulated sexual activity (vaginal penetration with a ping pong ball) in order to obtain an '18' classification.

Cuts were required to remove scenes in which a naked or semi-naked child is portrayed in a sexual and exploitative manner, including a scene of sexual violence.

• 2010 UK Optimum RB Blu-ray at UK Amazon
• 2007 UK Optimum R2 DVD at UK Amazon

US: Uncut and MPAA Unrated for:

• 2019 KL Studio Classics (RA) Blu-ray at US Amazon
• 2007 Lions Gate R1 DVD at US Amazon

From the 2007 BBFC Annual Report:

• It was given much consideration before it was judged that in the full context of an uncut classification it was clearer that there was no endorsement of the 'rape myth'. It was consequently passed '18' without cuts

• 2001 Momentum R2 DVD

From BBFC Case Study:

The cut to the smoking of the cigarette was waived as tasteless but not harmful or illegal

• the rape scene was still reduced to establishment

See pictorial cuts details from movie-censorship.com

• 1990 Braveworld VHS

From BBFC Case Study:

The sex cuts required on film in 1974 were no longer necessary by contemporary standards and only two cuts were insisted upon for video release, namely:

1. to remove the woman smoking a cigarette through her vagina and
2. to remove the entire rape in the opium den, as cut on film in the late 70s.

Unfortunately, a duplication error led to the uncut version being released on video in 1991, leading to a major and costly product recall.

• 1979 UK cinema release

From BBFC Case Study:

• In 1979 the BBFC now under James Ferman went on a crusade against the depiction of sexual violence. They revoked the X certificate and asked for a further 1:01s of cuts to delete the rape scene.  Ferman warned the film's distributor that if the Board's requested cut of 61 seconds was ignored, he would inform local authorities that the film was illegal as it stood.

• 1974 cinema release

From BBFC Case Study:

Cuts were made to the film, principally to reduce the sexual detail. As well as reducing the amount of implied thrusting, oral sex and masturbation in a number of sequences, the Board deleted an entire scene showing a night club act in which a woman 'smokes' a cigarette with her vagina.

Perhaps surprisingly given the later treatment of the film, a sequence in which Emmanuelle is raped in an opium den as part of her 'sexual education' was left largely intact, with only minimal cuts to reduce the amount of thrusting seen.

There are reports that hardcore scenes were shot, but were never used. These explicit scenes, which did not involve the main actors, have turned up as extras on some European DVD releases.

• UK 1987 Canon VHS

• UK 1984 cinema release

Some cuts were waived in 2001 but the release was still cut with the following BBFC comment: Company chose to cut clear sight of dildo penetration for 18. An uncut R18 was available to the distributor.

from IMDb

Emmanuelle 5 was released in two versions: one with softcore love scenes typical of the series, and a French home video version that extended several scenes with hardcore sex directed by Borowczyk himself. The scenes in question are the Love Express and dance studio segments, embellished with penetration, ejaculation and even a woman urinating. This VHS version also omits several minutes of footage seen in the theatrical version (including dialogue and crucial plot), so it cannot be considered an "uncut version".

A hardcore version was released in France:

Review from IMDb ; Emmanuelle Exploitation

Personally I found both the film and Olinka Hardiman boring. Its interest lies only with those "completists" interested in either Olinka Hardiman's nudity or the "Emmanuelle" series. However I doubt that this film has any relationship to the "Emmanuelle" series except for opportunistic exploitation of the title.

The Softcore Version was passed 18 without BBFC cuts for the 1981 cinema release, 1986 Network video, 1997 Lazer video and 2010 Odeon DVD.

The US Version has an added 6 minute prologue.

There is also a Hardcore Version, but inserts were added that were not performed by the original cast.

Passed 18 uncut for strong real sex for:

• UK 2012 BFI R2 DVD at UK Amazon

The extra running time seems to be for additional material, eg fragments from unfinished films.

The BBFC commented in their 2010 Annual Report:

The Erotic Films of Peter De Rome is a collection of eight short films that date from the early 1970s, some of which feature strong scenes of real sex. The work as a whole has artistic, cultural and historical merit and, in tone and treatment, is distinguishable from a sex work.

From promotional material: Highly regarded gay art films

Amateur filmmaker Peter De Rome first started shooting 8mm films in 1965 producing a set of painstakingly crafted, atmospheric sexual scenarios for the amusement of himself and his friends. Pioneering producer Jack Deveau saw one of these at a festival and convinced him to collect eight of the shorts, blow them up to 16mm, and release them commercially as The Erotic Films of Peter De Rome .

The eight short films in the cycle take the viewer on a charged sexual expedition which exists at the intersection of artistry and eroticism. Here, de Rome explores the full experience of intimacy the longing, the pursuit, the passion, the afterglow, and in some cases, the aftermath. From humorous to sardonic, de Rome truly pushes the boundaries of filmmaking as his characters find themselves in surreal scenarios ranging from a wondrous garden to an underground subway. The Erotic Films of Peter de Rome showcase some of the most highly regarded gay art films ever made.
