Plot – Spoilers:
An Italian businessman from the USA has an American name to prove it – Michael Parker and is currently involved with a divorced woman in Italy. This thing of having the US as his base seems to work well for Michael whenever he needs to walk out of a relationship. A long while back, he’d done this with a teenager and even drawn her into his sexual games involving bondage. Now as it turns out, she’s the landlady of the building where his lover stays. When the lover skips Christmas with him to take her kid out of town, Michael decides to hook up with his former conquest. It helps that she has a young daughter who seems to be giving him the eye. Suddenly, Christmas doesn’t seem such a lonely event for Mr. Michael Parker.

Some nice tits but that’s all, this is a casual movie with missing sex scenes

I don’t see why Michael Parker is upset.

You wanted to fuck around instead of going to your in-laws with the annoying kid – fair enough.

Ended up with a good looking woman who just so happens to be a proper freak in bed. Yeah, she’s a little clingy, but so what? On top of this, the smoking hot daughter wants some dick too!

Now – instead of going along with it and getting some ass, you run your mouth, act a fool and get stabbed. Now you’re a whiny bitch just like most of the people on this site.

I give it 3/5 whips for the decent shots of tits and some bush. What the plot lacks in plausibility, it makes up for with nudity and absurdity.

This was really entertaining! Wish the end was a bit better, I wonder if she was able to get him out. Definitely not super effed up but still a good watch

Okay, as an alternative to the brilliant contributions by NSDAPwasChristian and Dionysus the Rapist
(who writes his name incorrectly):

This is the third film I have seen of Giuseppe Patroni Griffi, after ‘The Driver’s Seat’ and ‘The Divine Nymph’. The second film also has the very attractive Laura Antonelli. Just like ‘Collector’s Item’, given here, these films are dated, interesting at that time only because of a bit of nudity. I fail to see why this film is offered here. But, as I have mentioned before, my idea of what is ‘effed up’ seems to be different than that of the Admin(s).

“For the first time it was then easy to introduce obedience into German territory. In addition to the absolute rule of the Christian religion came the fact that knights of the racially best German blood – men from the noblest clans and proven in combat – formed a ruling class over folks and mixed-bloods racially not equal to our volk. The values of achievement and personality stood next to obedience to the Church.”

~ Heinrich Himmler, “Defender Against Bolshevism”.

I have given my life to christ, this is the real dionysus the rapist, aka the gaper. After reflection, abrahamic religions seem more accurate than any of the others, thus I switched to Christianity. I’ll still be here with you all, watching gore for artistic and educational purposes, as well as the controversal topics portrayed in these works of art.

soundtrack by ennio morricone – as usual the score is better than the film
