Sadisterotica & Kiss Me Monster :
THE SEXIEST SUPER-SPIES EVER TO GRACE THE SCREEN
In the late 1960s, the undisputed master of art-house sexploitation Jess Franco made an indelible mark on the spy movie spoof genre with SADISTEROTICA and KISS ME MONSTER, two movies featuring the exploits of a duo of super-sexy sleuths, Diana and Regina, aka The Red Lips.
In SADISTEROTICA, the Red Lips find themselves investigating the disappearance of a series of beautiful young models. Their inquiries lead them to a bizarre "gallery of horrors" in which the morbid exhibits portray scenes of violent death involving figures resembling the missing girls. But as Diana and Regina get closer to the truth about the notoriously reclusive artist responsible for the work, they are unaware of how much danger they are in.
KISS ME MONSTER finds our heroines hired to find a missing doctor's secret formula. A sheet of music in a dead man's hand is the girls' only clue, but it leads them to an island owned by a sinister man name Erik. Using a crazy nightclub act as cover, the restless vixens sing, dance and strip their way to the solution of the strange case, effortlessly eluding lots of drooling, knife-wielding psychopaths along the way
Part of The Official Jess Franco Collection, SADISTEROTICA (cert. 18) and KISS ME MONSTER (cert. 18) are both released on DVD by Anchor Bay UK on 22nd August priced £14.99 each. Special Features on both discs include trailers, Jess Franco biography, optional 5.1 Surround and DTS, English subtitles for the hard of hearing and scene selection.
