Cast

Production

A 1979 version, including hardcore scenes, was released without agreement from the original cast. [3] These additional footage scenes are said to have possibly been made with a different cast. [4]

Reception

A contemporary review in the Corriere della Sera was extremely critical of the film. [4] : "an abyss of abjection. Few times, perhaps never, have we witnessed such a nauseating film. Nothing is spared the spectator, who feels cheated and rightly so; furthermore, there isn't even the excuse of beautiful women because those who are present in the film appear filthy and disproportionate, like a sideshow at a fair", [5] an assessment quoted by the Italian film historian Marco Giusti, who added that the film was "highly interesting". [6]

TV guide found it was an "unremarkable softcore entry (...) livened up somewhat in an alternate 1979 version containing hardcore footage." [3]
