Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaIt was thought to be unlikely that this film will ever see the light of day on DVD without heavy editing. This is due to the numerous depictions of actor John Holmes having sex with women playing girls as young as 13 years old. Also not helping the cause is the appearance of fictional brother/sister and sister/sister incest. However, it was widely released on DVD by Vinegar Syndrome in 2015. This release includes the scenes in question and runs for 83 minutes compared with this entry's stated 80 minute run time.
- GoofsTory Jeffery (who also is the film's make-up artist) plays the antique dealer, not the "pawnshop man" indicated in the film's credits.

Featured review
Classic film of its type
I first saw this film many years ago when it was a single film but at some point, some-one decided to chop it in two and while most of the film constitutes Part 1, the second part was given a new scenario which is something to do with Don Juan being a descendant of Casanova. Anyway, this review is for Part 1.
The film is certainly lavish with its costumes and sets but the film starts off with a clip showing Gene Wilder and Donald Sutherland from Start the Revolution Without Me. After that we get to the main story which is the modern descendant of Casanova, played by John Holmes, inheriting a potent perfume which renders any female who smells it putty in his hands. This, of course is just what porn films are all about. Besides the obvious sex scenes this film takes on darker themes - the term, family relations, takes on a whole new meaning; and the scene with the three young ladies may be at odds with today's sensibilities. As a porn film though, this delivers the goods.
John Holmes gets to show off his legendary manhood in some hot scenes but for me the best is the one at the motel with Iris Medina. She is fabulous, so much so that it seems unlikely she could ever me a motel maid, but this is a porn film after all. This scene is not just sex but sexy as well. A missed opportunity was the scene with Susan Silver as Doctor Sharpe. This could have been a great scene if some-one had used a bit of imagination. Overall though, a good film of its type.
