Folles perverses

I made the mistake of purchasing this movie new as I was unfortunately drawn in by the movie's cover.The theme on the case sleeve seemed interesting and it was, but the film was very simple: Nudity,sex and violence.This film was boring at times (as many of the scenes dragged) and for this reason it was rather difficult to sit through, the only reason I gave it 3 stars was for a couple of scenes in the movie which were well done (even though they were very short they were quite effective).I don't know if the production ran out of money but the movie ends abruptly resulting in a rather poor climax.The ending pretty much sums up the movie, vague and disappointing. There is a lengthy sex scene but it was filmed with poor lighting and is rather difficult to see.Strangely enough,there are no streetwalking or escorting scenes either.I expected more street hustling type action considering the theme.The film however does have its moments(maybe 10 minutes overall) but as a whole it is highly disappointing.The listed running time on sleeve is 90 minutes 80 of which I would have been better off sleeping through.

I saw this on Canadian Pay TV back in the mid 1980s and was surprised by the heavy quotient of violence, given how it was sometimes shown early in the morning. The story is about a prostitute and some of her pals who decide to rebel against their pimp who naturally doesn't take it too well and this leads to an underworld war. In addition to some heavy violence, there is some pretty strong nudity and sex in the film and not so much the erotic type but the cheap, sleazy, peephole type. The film does indeed have a gritty, anything goes, street-quality to it but none of the actors show much talent and there isn't really anyone to root for. The film almost qualifies for an X-rating and seems like it was designed mainly for the porno house crowd, though even they may be turned off by the bad taste this film leaves behind.
