A reporter tracks down a missing German slut in London. From the title and poster art, one might expect a cheap and dirty dubbed German sex film here, so its quite a surprise to find a sordid, arty and witty little British melodrama, full of cheap and dirty sex to be sure, but more akin to classic 60s Brit-Pop like "The Touchables" and "Performance," with a touch of "Smashing Time" thrown in. This exciting film does a great take on sleazy 60s London, as we visit basement strip joints, psychedelic dance clubs and spooky mob-run gambling dens, all with a gritty real-world feel to them. There is enough weird sex to keep the most jaded viewer occupied, including lesbianism, marital betrayal, a great hippy orgy and a gang rape. Even cooler, however, are scenes told in flashback that are in actual 3-D. These scenes are quite bizarre without glasses, and with them, surely even wilder. One great shot has Greta shoving her great big boobs into the screen. There's also a great/awful theme song, sung by "Huckleberry Fynn," and enough plot loopholes to keep you going "Huh?" all night. Surely a lost goody.
