No erotic filmmaker can blur the line between pleasure and pain quite like the notorious Jess Franco! Gorgeous young Alicía Principe stars as Odile, a succulent American tourist whose innocent afternoon of voyeurism soon leads her to the bed of a mysterious couple. But what begins as a torrid ménage-à-trois soon leads to Odile through an odyssey of Sapphic bliss and S&M torment that explodes in one of the most bizarre climaxes in EuroCult history. Daniel Katz (Night Of Non-Stop Sex), Carmen Carrión (The Inconfessable Orgies Of Emmanuelle) and the very hot Mamie Kaplan (Lillian The Perverted Virgin) co-star in this depraved shocker, now fully restored from Spanish vault elements and featuring an all-new interview with writer/director Jess Franco himself!

Don't Be Fooled!!
If you're looking for a film adaptation of the novel "The Story of O", you won't get it here.What you'll get is a fairly boring soft core movie with a bit of badly done kink at the end. It's also subtitled... including very useful translations of "Ah! Ah! Ah!".If you're looking for "The Story of O", buy the 1975 version or try to track down a copy of the 1992 "The Story of O, the Series". Don't waste your money on this one.

Sexual Story of O
Princess von Baky (Carmen Carrión) leads a life of wickedness, using everyone around her, like her sickly and impotent husband (Daniel Katz) and her servants Mara (Mari Carmen Nieto) and Mauro (Mauro Rivera), who lure virgins to her home where they all violate and torture the innocence out of them until the well runs dry.A young American named Odéle (Alicia Príncipe) has been spying on them. As she starts to become part of the carnal games within the home, Mauro falls in love with her and tries to save her, but as the movie moves from a languid soft core feel to a psychedelic burst of blue lights and bloody BDSM violence, everything gets incredible apocalyptic, followed by a walk into the sea that perhaps can wash away the blood. But probably not.Franco made this movie with an entirely new cast of actors than he usually used in an attempt to shake things up. One wonders if he could have done that by making a film he hadn’t already made before, but I have no interest in questioning Franco, only using his films to send my brain into a level of near drug-induced drone.

This is a great erotic movie.
Okay, I get it. All of you folks who gave this a one-star rating because it is not like the original 'Story of O' are really missing the boat. This a a wonderful erotic movie on its own merits. The story line is good. The ladies are beautiful and sexy. I find erotic film at its best for instance, when a women bends over in a nightgown and we suddenly get a look of full beautiful breasts. Male genitals are displayed putting this film somewhere in the grey area between hard and soft-core. Don't be afraid to buy this movie.

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY! IT'S 'NOT'
Other reviewers are correct. If you're thinking that this is the original cult classic, "The Story of O", it isn't! And 'far' from it! Wish I would have known this before I purchased it!Despite the cover image appearing to be that of the original, and [...]And despite the original being a French made movie, unless you can understand Spanish, be perpared to 'read' this movie instead of watching it! That's right, it's all in 'Spanish', with optional English subtitles![...]

you need some brains to understand this movie
Most of what I had seen by this guy is quite simple or over-simple but this flick I couldnt watch and enjoy. The plot looks simple and straight, chicks are high quality, plenty of nudity, everything seems go as we expect till suddenly terrible end. The end basically destroy all movie till we understand in real life it happens on much bigger scale every day and nobody scream as we should.

The Sexual Story of O
A VERY BORING MOVIE, HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE STORY OF O, WHICH I CONSIDERED VERY GOOD
E**S
Not to be confused with the original Story of 'O'
This film has nothing to do with the original Story Of 'O' novel and is more akin to Jess Franco's own film, Eugenie and Her Descent Into Madness. Franco has used actors he has used before and a couple of newcomers in this film of a young girl's procurement for a depraved aristocrat mother and her son. You know things are not going to end well as the pimps, a male and female discuss the probable outcome. Very sexy in some parts, the sex scenes could be considered as quite graphic, and intercut with shots of a beautiful rose, Franco's metaphor for 'O' perhaps, some viewers will probably feel an increasing sense of unease as the film approaches its conclusion.For UK viewers, this film, as far as I am aware, is only available as part of the Jess Franco Collection 2. The UK edition is shown in wide-screen format of 2.35:1. Run time is 88 minutes and image quality is probably as good as it is going to get for DVD. Language is mainly Spanish with optional English subtitles. The disc also contains a 15 minute interview with Jess Franco.
