![]() ![]() This truly bizarre piece of 1970s Eurosleaze is not easy to analyze.It's also loaded with scenes of sex and torture,but the nudity is pretty sparse and not explicit."Frustration" has been passed for cinema exhibition in 1972,rated X of course,but has never submitted on video.It's a crying shame,because this stylish little "Repulsion" knock-off needs to be seen.Give it a look.8 out of 10.įrustration _ BEST INCEST(real+roleplay), WIVES, CHEAT, FAMILY, OLD-YOUNG, TABOO, BEST JAVĪs balance to the no-nothing review previously posted on IMDb, LITTLE ME AND MARLA STRANGELOVE is a quality porn film, forgotten but still arousing decades later.ĭirector Kirdy Stevens and his scripter Helene Terrie were soon to hit the big time with the classic TABOO and its sequels, but LITTLE ME is a mini-classic in its own right. "Frustration" is a quintessential,low-budget and sleazy Eurotika's horror/drama from the Pope Of Perversion himself,director Jose Benazeraf(recent recipient of the 'Golden Penis' for lifetime achievement in porn).Tormented by incestuous fantasies,a sexually repressed woman makes love to her brother's wife and then kills herself. In conclusion, this is a true erotic horror film, made in the days when competent directors with integrity and style were at the helm, and so "The Chambermaid's Dream", terrible re-titling and all, should be sought and seen. Reynaud's husband Michel Lemoine co-stars as the doctor and co-wrote the script, and his oddball performance works and contrasts well with his co-stars. ![]() Reynaud's character is essentially an extension of her character in "Succubus" but her character here is more sympathetic, or pathetic, if you will. The film's ability to shock comes mostly from these sadoerotic scenes. The director's penchant for infusing politics into a landscape riddled with repressed sexuality and depravity is here in abundance, and the viewer cannot help but find the political dialog, at times intercut with scenes of sadistic sexual violence, disturbing yet appropriate in the film's context. Ponderous yet powerful, "The Chambermaid's Dream" is an unforgettable viewing experience. The affection for her sister becomes overpowering, and the film heads toward a very depressing ending. Observing the affection and overhearing the sounds of lovemaking between the sister and her husband soon begin to shatter the mind of Reynaud, and she begins to have sexual fantasies involving the husband, then fantasies about three-way relations between her, her sister and the husband, until finally progressing to extremely violent, over-the-top fantasies involving sexual torture of both her sister and other women. ![]() Janine Reynaud plays a sexually repressed woman who lives with her sister and her sister's doctor husband in a large house in the middle of the snowy nowhere of Europe. This is actually a superb erotic remake of Polanski's classic "Repulsion" but this film goes much further in terms of showing nudity, sexual activity, sexual violence and sadomasochism. This rare film aired on cable television in the 1980's in an English dubbed version entitled "The Chambermaid's Dream", which has absolutely no relation to the content of the film whatsoever. ![]() Frustration (1971) aka The Chambermaid's Dream ![]()
