Prior
to this project, European model Pamela Prati starred in Umberto Lenzi's

German-made SUKKUBUS,
Mario Biachi's REFLECTIONS
OF LIGHT, Lucio Fulci's BLOOD
MOON) which cemented her Euro icon status.
Notorious
sleazemeister Pasquale Fanetti (alias Frank Di Niro) is the man behind
the camera [aptly explaining the film's obsession with naked female
