    Audio in English, French and German. It's a two-disc set with a 4K disc and a blu-ray. It's said to be the first disc in a new series of Eurocine sex films. A kind of European Criterion Collection.

    Is it actually 4k? This is Germany after all!

    Is it English friendly?

    I'm content with the 88 release. If it ever appears in a sale I might upgrade, but I prefer Franco's looser improvisations.

    I knew I should have held off on the 88 Films release of Bloody Judge

    Despite the fact that Ada Tauler and Karine Gambier are both smokin' hot, I always thought this film was a bit of a let down. All the gyrating around the campfire to the sounds of voodoo drums gets boring. Should have made it a hardcore film.

    Press release!

    ON SALE FOR THE FIRST TIME ON BLU-RAY IN NORTH AMERICA!

    Eurosleaze maverick Jess Franco and producer Erwin C. Dietrich (BLUE RITA) team up again for VOODOO PASSION (aka CALL OF THE BLONDE GODDESS and PORNO SHOCK), a voyeuristic, sex-soaked thriller that veers wildly between reality and fantasy.

    Ada Tauler stars as Susan, who arrives in Haiti to live with her new husband Jack (Franco regular Jack Taylor), who has an apparently unhealthy, possibly incestuous relationship with his sister Olga. Lost in a fever dream of sexual delirium, Susan suddenly finds herself in a weird world of black magic, clandestine couplings and bloody voodoo rituals, all the while her possibly sinister housekeeper (Muriel Motosse) looks on lustfully.

    VOODOO PASSION is another erotic arthouse Franco triumph. The film also stars Eurocult superstar Karine Gambier and features a groovy score by Walter Baumgartner (Franco’s JACK THE RIPPER) and is presented here fully uncut and remastered in stunning HD from Dietrich’s original negative.

    Grab your copy NOW exclusively from our sexy sister site FULL MOON DIRECT for only $21.95! And explore the entire smokin' hot FMD library while you're at it!

    No I won't. Once is enough!

    I bet this won't have the original German with subs. The Ascot Elite BD has the German audio but annoyingly it ONLY has Japanese subs.
