Day Of The Triffids (1963) Excellent fun film and surprisingly more serious than I expected it to be (besides the killer plants of course)based on the John Wyndham book which I would like to read.
Eugenie And The Story Of Her Journey Into Perversion (1969) Jess Franco adaptation of Marquis De Sade's Philosophy In The Boudoir-unsurprisingly this is pure sexploitation but there are a lot of quotes from De Sade's writings. Sadly there's not enough Christopher Lee as unsurprisingly he isn't involved in the sex scenes though the last twenty minutes are glorious and only ruined by the very last scene which tries to be clever and fails miserably. Definitely one for Sade fans.
