After
almost a decade of directing nothing but hardcore sex films (over 100,
including MESSALINA
VIRGIN EMPRESS), Joe D'Amato proved he could still make a decent
movie, on par with his earlier story-driven erotic actioners. It would,
sadly, be his final motion picture as he died from a heart attack after
completing the project in January 1999. For this film, he would return
to an old pseudonym, David Hills, not used since his FRANKENSTEIN
2000 [which incidentally was his last horror film].
Sir
Francis Hamilton, ambassador to King Charles II, sails from England
to Jamaica where he will be signing a peace treaty with France. On the
way to the Caribbean, his ship is attacked by the notorious Captain
George Rachman and his pirates. When the nefarious Captain discovers
Hamilton's true identity, the pirates demand a huge ransom from his
wife. Complications keep the British from paying the demand, so Lady
Elena takes matters into her own hands, using her stamina and sexual
prowess to organize a band of her own pirates to stage a rescue.
With
this film, Joe D'Amato (born Aristide Massaccesi in 1936) completed
his 200th project. Despite the rather nondescript porn during his last
period, Joe was the undisputed genre king throughout the '70 and '80s,
delivering such legendary motion pictures as THE
ALCOVE, IMAGES
IN THE CONVENT, BLUE
OMEGA, ANTHROPOPHAGUS,
TOP
MODEL, PRONO
HOLOCAUST as well as the numerous films in the BLACK
EMANUELLE franchise.
