Erotic Symphony

About This Movie

So, 'Erotic Symphony' is one of those Jess Franco films that really finds its own peculiar groove. The story kicks off with this woman coming back from an asylum, which already sets a certain tone—unease and tension woven into the narrative. Her husband’s living with another man, and that subplot adds layers of complexity. The pacing? It drags a bit, but you kind of get lost in the mood. Themes of betrayal and desperation are pretty prevalent. Then there’s this wild turn with the nun; it’s a bizarre twist that leans into Franco’s taste for the provocative. You can’t help but appreciate the practical effects and the performances, even if they are a bit uneven. Definitely a curious piece to dig into for anyone interested in Franco’s vision.
