Notes

"One Of The Most Notorious Exploitation Films Ever Made!"
-Bizarre Magazine


Ok! Let me start by sayiing that this movie is not for family viewing.
It starts off like you'd think, and moves along with the incredibly gorgeous
Laura Gemser going undercover under the covers, as it were, to get photos for use in her profession as a photo-journalist for a New York news magazine. She manages to defy an assassination attempt with an impromptu blowjob to show the would be killer that sex isnt so bad, and the sins of the world can be fun and worth trying out. He quickly agrees and flees with abig grin on his somewhat shocked face. Emanuelle knows a repressed man when she sees one! Campy antics get our sultry hedonistic investigator a position in the harem of a local wealthy bad guy who collects women according to the signs of the zodiac, where as "Virgo" she completes the set and meanders around snapping photos with a camera James Bond would be proud to have used.
Once she has her evidence, she makes good her escape, and finds herself in Venice in the casstle of an aristocrat who seems to be in the business of selling forged art works to other high end scum. Oh, and he throws one hell of a party. I gave a little start at this point as the films "graphic sexual content" began to make itself manifest in the most graphic ways possible! Soft core this is not! Well, Emanuelle gets wind of some other questionable shenanigans on the other side of the world and so must be off to get her photos! Ciao, Venice! And enter the blood and gore portion of this odd, disturbing, flick. Seems Emanuelle is after the producers of some snuff films. I got a bit skeezed out during this part, and found myself cringeing and looking away. For 1976, those are some realistic effects. There is more than one kind of impalement shown in this film. HA and there is a scene with a Horse named Pedro. I was pretty much "no way will they show...oh shit! They Do they do!" This one is unrated folks, but that doesnt mean you can get it at the local rental spot. 1976!

At any rate, this entire series is notorious for setting the standard internationally for exploitation films. And they were not above the "mash-up" with whatever was big at the time. Thus be prepared a unique experience when you go watch this gem in the crown of Laura Gemser and Joe D'Amato - EMANUELLE IN AMERICA
brought to you by the legendary Blue Underground.
