Testament (of its time)

This worked way better in the 80s and has not aged that well. And I'm talking about the movie, so no pun inteneded. When it comes to story it's quite out there, mixing thriller and erotic elements to quite a "joyful bundle" (also a very disturbing and crazy one).

Now people in here may not really act or react exactly like one would imagine they do. The german dub would add negative points imho, so just keep that in the back of your mind in case you are thinking about watching it that way (unfortunately for many DVD releases in Germany while having the original audio included, do not have subtitles). Nudity and minor violence included - does that sound appealing?
