New Franco reviews to tide you over...

With anticipation mounting over the release of Laure (from Emmanuelle Arsan – the real Emmanuelle), here are a couple of reviews of past releases to tide you all over:

First, a tongue-in-cheek (no pun intended) review of Once Upon a Girl from Bloodtype Online.

Next, a very positive review of Perversion Story from EInsiders.

One for The Sexual Story of O from DVD Talk.

And speaking of O, here's a cheeky listing from EInsiders:

THE INCONFESSABLE ORGIES OF EMMANUELLE (Severin Films. $29.95): With a title like that, do you really need a description? All I will add is that this 1982 effort was directed by none other than the infamous Eurosleaze auteur Jess Franco–that should be enough to attract the right people to this DVD while keeping the others away. If that isn’t enough Franco-directed smut to satisfy you this week, the good folks at Severin (who are really becoming players on the grindhouse DVD front) are also releasing his oddly title 1984 knock-off "The Sexual Story of O"–after all, the original "Story of O" was hardly about knitting as far as I recall.

And here's an O review that will make you swear off the internet, joke or not, courtesy of DVD Verdict.

Here's a love letter to all things Franco over at the Videowatchblog.

Finally, Francophile Robert Montell gives us reviews of Sexual Story of O here and Inconfessible Orgies of Emmanuelle here.
