REVIEWS

Critical Rating: AAAA

Lucio Fulci?s erotic thriller finally sees its DVD release, complete with bonus CD of Riz Ortolani?s intense jazz score.

Perversion Story involves a doctor (Jean Sorel of Lizard in Woman?s Skin) who is smitten by a stripper that bears an uncanny resemblance to his dead wife. The audience is kept guessing at the characters true motives until the thrilling twist ending inside San Quentin?s gas chamber.

Fulci hadn?t yet made the films that would dub him one of "the godfathers of gore," and here he crafts an amazing film without spilling a drop of blood.

Retailing: Italian cinema is where it?s at!
