I can't decide if I like this guy or not. A Virgin Among The Living Dead and She Killed In Ecstasy are pretty good. Vampyros Lesbos...ehhhh, don't know about that one.

Who else has seen his stuff? Mercury? Bart? Antiyou?

I've seen some Franco, and it's never really done much for me. Venus in Furs was a pretty decent giallo-type movie. He has one of the most dedicated cult audiences in the world, though. Franco fans could give Star Wars geeks a run for their money in terms of overall obsessiveness.

That was a misleading title and a letdown. It reminds me of a time I rented a Samurai movie just to watch some swordplay and evisceration. Well did they ever start playing with swords... not the katanas. I didn't pay much attention to the movies I rented when I was younger. The box had no mention of GAY SAMURAI SEX on it.

I saw 3 of his movies and the only thing I still remember about them is Soledad Miranda.
