Also known as: Eugenie, Evgenia, Philosophy in the Boudoir, The Story of Her Journey Into Perversion, De Sade 70
Description: Eugenie was an attempt to update and film de Sade’s explicit work without it resulting in mere pornography – according to Franco it is meant to be an adult fairy tale and fantasy. Towers’ script is strong, though not without flaws, and the direction arguably lifts the film, giving it a very dream-like atmosphere and artistic feel. Franco has referred to ‘Eugenie’ as the film of his that he hates the least, and it may well be considered one of his best.

very classy with inspired and stylish camera.
excellent teasing but a bit too less explicit scenes for that theme though.
when their own plot turns against the depraved couple it becomes a surreal (drug-induced) guessing what happened in the end.
for the eye one of or the most appealing Jesus Franco movie imo.
