I first saw a few clips of this film on a grainy Sullivan rip-off tape which was supposed to be a Private hardcore tape but turned out to be a 20 minute long compilation of badly chopped shorts of USA titles. Not even any pubes in sight never mind pink bits. I could edit better using two vcrs and an RF lead. Any way that was about 12 years ago but the title of that film stayed in my head because it seemed like quite a scary film and not just the average filth flick. I think horror and sex mix quite well as Hammer discovered in thier final years.

I see bizzaro video are selling the full version (not the 3 minute Dave version) so has anyone seen it and is it worth a look or am I just looking back through rose tinted specs to my first disappointing foray into mail order porn?

P.S. The same Diminutive Dave tape had an abridged version (4 minutes-thats ages for DS) of a Peter North flick where he sported a mullet and pointed his tv remote at women who then shagged him!? Yeah it was shit just like the whole of the eighties. Bet DS misses old Maggie.

I have this movie in unedited form-on Beta; so, as the deck died, I haven't seen it in a long while.It is more "weirdo/bizarro" then scary, but really isn't all that weird/bizarre. Most of it takes place in this dimension/plane.It has good production values & might be a decent choice for a bloke to show his SO as a first porno.The lead, Catherine Burgess, is very pretty, but having watched the film several times, I am convinced that, other than rubbing her pussy a few times, she does no actual sex--stunt doubles & clever editing.One scene I found to be quite erotic:Jamie Gillis, as demon/daddy, inveigles young Catherine (played by a diff actress) to show him how she masturbates, & it segues into a BJ.(Gillis is great at this type stuff.)...A side note;this film was on the Quality-X label, an imprint of Video-X-Pix, which went under about 1988. The catalog is apparently leaking back into the market; there is some shot-on-video trash, but also some fairly good stuff, such as the Chuck Vincent comedies (many w/ early Brit Samantha Fox), & other classics like Veronica Hart's very worthwhile & sexy debut film, "A Scent of Heather."

Thanks for the info Mike.

Are you talking about THE Sam Fox ie page three girl/singer(mimer). If so please elaborate. I have a Penthouse mag where you can almost see her bush but the Holy Grail would be to see the full monty.

I always did like Veronica Hart. She still appears in non sex roles.

Sorry, I was wrong: this Samantha was from N.Y.C.. Sure sounds English tho.....Veronica Hart also directs.
