 SEX
WISH- (Video Dungeon) 1974. Porn.
Approx. 80 min. Rated X, hardcore sex, rape, violence. Ken Bradshaw (Harry Reems)
returns home to his fiancée Faye from a two-week business trip. The two partake
in some good old-fashioned lovemaking. They start in the bathtub and finish up
on the couch. Early the next morning, Ken leaves for work and accidentally bumps
into a strange man in the hallway. While apologizing, Ken picks up a matchbook
that the stranger dropped, but the stranger runs off before he can return it to
him. Ken shakes his head, puts the matchbook in his pocket, and continues onto
work. A few minutes later, Faye hears a knock at the door and opens it. In
charges the same guy and proceeds to rape Faye using a vibrator as he jerks off.
After he cums, the rapist whips Faye and kills her by slitting her throat. Ken
is so saddened by his fiancée’s murder, he sleeps with two prostitutes and
later, Faye’s next door neighbor. While Ken is sleeping with everyone in New
York, the psycho rapist continues his violent rampage of rape and murder. After
sexually humiliating a young black couple, the rapist kills the man, then rapes
the woman and kills her after she bites his dick. The crazy also pulls a woman
from the street into an alley and rapes her too. Ken, confident that the man he
bumped into in the hallway has something to do with Faye’s death, reads the
dropped matchbook and starts playing detective until he comes face to face with
Faye’s murderer.
Ok, this is one sick movie. Not in a million years would a movie like
this be made today. I actually had to shower after viewing SEX WISH because I
felt so dirty. There is something about 70’s porn that is extra dirty looking
and feeling anyway. Maybe it’s because all the actors/actresses are so damn
hairy and sweaty looking. Although bad acting litters this porn, it is real
enough to make most people a bit uncomfortable. The director obviously felt the
need to sandwich in Ken’s “normal” sex scenes to lighten the load of the
three violent rapes. The most uncomfortable scene is when the rapist attacks the
young black couple. They seemed so helpless. For a porn, it was shot pretty
nicely and the production isn’t all that bad. The director even got a little
artsy fartsy with one of Ken’s sex scenes by editing it together in a romantic
way. This flic will piss of a lot of people with it’s acts of violence against
woman. If you do purchase this flic, be careful who sees it. Then again, it’s
only a stupid 70’s porn. –Denis Sheehan
