    Enter at your own risk!

    A traumatic childhood experience has left attractive brunette Helen (Fiona Horsey) with serious intimacy issues, but matters are made much worse when she is raped by her boyfriend and finds that she possesses the sexual equivalent of the Bermuda Triangle between her legs—any man who dares venture near her voracious vagina vanishes without trace! After a catastrophic visit to the gynaecologist that sees her cooch claim another victim, the distraught Helen leaves for London, with concerned love-struck loser Dennis (Paul Conway) in hot pursuit.

    Not content with Penetration Angst simply exploring the age-old vagina dentata myth, writer/director Wolfgang Büld also sees fit to add several equally bizarre subplots, including Dennis's awkward relationship with Siamese twin Sylvia (Amy Steel), and a pub stripper planning an armed robbery on the Isle of Wight; the result is a chaotic, darkly humorous film full of violence and nudity (with Horsey spending much of her time naked) that delivers messed-up madness by the bucket-load, but which tries a touch too hard to accommodate every twisted idea that Büld could come up with.

    At 102 minutes long, the film ultimately outstays its welcome (it could do with being at least fifteen minutes shorter) but not before delivering such delightfully deranged moments as Dennis accidentally shagging Sylvia's sister and separating the girls with an electric bread-knife, a man pulled tongue first into Helen's insatiable snatch (which moans 'Feeed meee' just like Audrey II in The Little Shop of Horrors), a newlywed Helen being humped by her father-in-law (with inevitable results), and Dennis applying yogurt to his sun-burnt bell-end.

    Wow. This was a waste of 80 mins.

    Idk filmed well ,acting not great but theres no bloody gore 4 or 5 good scenes (not great) and all but one after 58 mins. Man do i hate movies that take 60 mins to have a kill. Its exactly what you expect but does NOT deliver, they tryed to hard to make this film a Hollywood film. 4 stars since it was filmed and edited well.

    Bizarre trip in feminity

    This is not a XXX-porno but it is hard to describe this movie without using words that will be deleted from a censorship. It is a Ken Russelleque movie about every kind of sexual addiction and this is really funny!!! It is horror with a lot of fun, maybe a little bit to long, but what shells? You will see more than three scenes that you will never forget and the actress is beautiful - ACHTUNG! It is very british but nothing for the society of Merchant/Ivory-fans!!!

    Completely stupid - but fun enough - black comedy thriller

    I saw director Wolfgang Büld's 'Twisted Sisters' not too long ago, and thought it was a decent little twisted flick. This earlier film, however, makes Twisted Sisters look like The Sound of Music - as they don't get much weirder and completely nonsensical than Penetration Angst! The plot obviously takes its main plot point from the idea of a woman's anxiety when it comes to having sex for the first time. It could be said that this is a 'feminist' film, although personally I very much doubt that was on the director's mind...even if he does seem to have a thing men faring badly when it comes to sex (judging by the two films I've seen from him). The plot focuses on a young lady named Helen. Helen is raped one night in a car, and is surprised when her attacker disappears! It soon transpires that he has, in fact, disappeared into her; and Helen then finds herself with an insatiable thirst for men. Meanwhile, a man named Dennis, whom Helen knows, begins dating a Siamese twin...a love story with disastrous consequences.

    If there's one thing that can definitely be said about this film, it's that it makes you think about things you'd never normally think about! The thought of the implications and logistics of having sex with Siamese twins never entered my head before seeing this film! There's a heavy dose of humour, and the director seems to really enjoy throwing in a barrage of ridiculous ideas. The acting is mostly atrocious, and the dubbing is even worse; but clearly the star of the show is the plot, which is always enough of a distraction. As if a (literally) hungry vagina isn't enough of a silly reason for a film; the other plot line, while somewhat more possible, is no less stupid! There are a couple of decent scenes in the movie, and one of them involves Siamese twins and an electric knife! The film isn't really all that gory, but there's plenty of slutty women and whatnot. It all boils down to a conclusion that (somehow) manages to bring everything together, and while this is the sort of film that will very much divide opinion; I'd recommend it to anyone that doesn't mind incoherency and ridiculousness so long as there's fun to be had.

    Surprisingly good

    Good European horror B-movie. And apparently in Britain you get more for your movie-making buck. The gore effects are pretty good, there's a lot of filming on location on an island, on the streets of London. That's always a nice deviation from the annoying in-studio filming. I have no problem with the acting. Fiona in particular does a great job, considering the outrageous things she's asked to do. She's cute and seems like a fun girl who's up for anything. Most importantly, the script is excellent. You'll see things here that you'll never see in an American movie and it's quite creepy and there are a lot of surprises. But it's not perverse or mean-spirited. In fact, there could have been more nudity. If you're looking for something different than the typical sanitized PG-13 horror, or orgies of fake-blood, this is a movie worth seeing.
