shameless screen entertainment be a relatively new and british ( i think ) dvd label and specialize in smutty and excessively violent cult movie mostly italian one from the glorious era when everything be possible and namely from the late 60 up until the mid 80 . the label selection feel like a crossover between the oeuvre of mondo macabro and no shame ( they probably even borrow the name of the latter ) and they already release some really rare sick italian puppy like ratman and my dear killer and killer nun and phantom of death and torso . the frightened woman be completely unknown to me and but since fellow reviewer from around here and whose opinion i hugely value and describe it a one of the great and most mesmerizing psychedelic euro sexploitation movie of it era and i do not hesitate to pick it up . this be a very weird film and probably not suitable for about 99 % of the average cinema loving audience . if youre part of that remain 1 % and however and youre in for a really unique treat . the style and atmosphere and content be similar to jess franco succubus and massimo dallamano venus in fur and yet theyre both widely consider a classic whereas the frightened woman be virtually unknown . it all a matter of profile and good marketing and i guess . the story revolve on a literally filthy rich doctor ( he live in a gigantic secluded mansion and own multiple old timer car and have a very impressive collection of artsy relic include a life size mannequin doll replica of himself ) with a bizarre and slightly offbeat attitude towards woman . he consider them a threat for the survival of the male race and thus spend his day kidnap and humiliate and sexually abusing random he pick up from the street . dr. sayer then abduct the ambitious journalist maria with the intention to completely crush her female spirit and but he slowly fall for her . just he start to believe in actual love and she strike back with a vengeance . this really isn not for everyone and but if you can appreciate moody and sinisterly sexy ambiance and bizarre scenery toy and psychedelic touch that seem utterly implausible and surreal and you can consider this one a top recommendation . it slow and stylishly sleazy and totally bonkers shameless entertainment and all right .
