YOUNG, FREE 'N' KINKY BUT FOR HOW LONG?

Also known as Â‘Dirty Pictures', this fabulously trippy sexploitation thriller from Umberto Lenzi (Paranoia, Cannibal Ferox, Nightmare City) is a lost classic long unavailable to fans of classy kinky flicks. In the now increasingly common madness that appears to grip Shameless they've dug-up never-before-seen lost footage of the eye-popping kind to present this world-first complete edit of Oasis of Fear. In addition to that the movie is being made available for the first time with the long-sought after and thought-to-be-lost English sound dub.
Two young sexually free hippies, Dick (Ray Lovelock) and Ingrid (Ornella Muti) finance their travels by selling naked snaps of Ingrid until their plan is brought to an abrupt end by the Police. Forced on the run the two seek refuge at a seemingly empty isolated large villa. As it turns out the house is inhabited by the middle-aged Barbara (Irene Papas) who invites them in for some potential three-way hanky-panky that soon locks them into something far more twisted and chilling!

Set to a toe-tapping catchy pop score and filled with deliciously naked female flesh this is also an intriguingly dreamy giallo from the underrated Lenzi that chills into a suspense-ridden climax.

Oasis of Fear (cert. 18) is released uncut on DVD by Shameless Screen Entertainment. The film will be presented as a world-first Shameless rebuild edit, remastered in 2.35:1 with English 2.0 sound. Also included on the disc is a comprehensive Shameless subtitle commentary fact track and an original trailer gallery.

Never trust a stranger

Danish student Ingrid (Ornella Muti) and her English boyfriend Dick (Ray Lovelock) decide to sell pornography illegally in Italy, and at the beginning, they make a lot of money and spend a great holiday time there. Then they are arrested by the police, and their rebellious attitude (especially if you remember, this was 1970) doesn't help much. They end up on the street without a Lira in their pockets, and when a rich lady (Irene Papas) offers help, it seems a stroke of luck and they are not suspicious at all...

La bella Ornella in one of her earliest movies is very playful and looks best in a kind of Indian temple dancer costume here. All in all, "Un posto ideale per uccidere" is not a particularly dark or violent film, but with enough suspense. The rapid cut by Eugenio Alabiso - who also had his hands on genre classics like "Tutti i colori del buio" and "Lo strano vizio della Signora Wardh" - helps to speed it up a bit. Note: My Italian DVD is said to be transferred from the original negative with a running time of 83:49 min.

Quiz
Umberto Lenzi wanted to make a hippie road movie in the vein of Easy Rider (1969), but producer Carlo Ponti insisted the film be a more typical "giallo", even suggesting the casting of Carroll Baker. Ponti forced Lenzi to change the main characters from drug dealers to pornographers.

Blooper
The Italian headline of the newspaper article on Dick and Ingrid's escape translates as "Police Search for 2 Young Germans", but Dick has already been identified by the police as British in a previous scene.

Citazioni
Dick Butler: [to Barbara, throwing down the money she left him, assumedly as a gift for "services rendered" during illicit sex the night before] You petty little middle class bitch! Here, this belongs to you! At first I thought you'd taken me for a whore.
