Few filmmakers were more closely associated with the darkest, grimiest, and most shocking side of 1960s sexploitation than notorious auteur Michael Findlay (The Ultimate Degenerate), and no films better personify his uniquely twisted approach to the genre than the infamous "Flesh" trilogy.

In the first entry in the trilogy, THE TOUCH OF HER FLESH, Findlay himself stars as Richard Jennings; happily married to the beautiful Claudia (Angelique Pettyjohn). Richard leaves for a business trip only to return and discover Claudia in bed with her lover! Panic stricken, Richard staggers to the street and is hit by a car, losing an eye and gaining a limp as a result. Scorned and vengeful, Richard adopts a new identity and begins a murderous rampage against all women he deems "immoral."

In THE CURSE OF HER FLESH, the middle entry of the trilogy, Findlay returns as the bloodthirsty and eye-patched Richard Jennings. Continuing his quest to rid the world of sex-crazed females, Richard ups the ante - and bodycount, devising an array of increasingly gruesome methods of dispatching his victims all while planning the ultimate revenge against his wife's lover, Steve.

In the final installment of the trilogy, THE KISS OF HER FLESH, Richard has lost what little sanity he had left, instead putting all emphasis on seeking out and brutally slaying any and every woman who crosses his path. However, this time he might have met his match as his deceased wife's sister, Maria (Uta Erikson), is hellbent on putting an end to Richard's orgiastic rampage...

All three of these perverted classics of underground sleaze have been newly restored in 2K from their uncensored 35mm camera negatives and are making their world Blu-ray debut from Distribpix Inc. and Something Weird!

Reviews

Michael Findlay's "Flesh" Trilogy

"Great packaging for a great release. Distribpix keeps on delivering."

Ryan F. (5/5)

Classic sixties roughies

"Picture quality is great, a little "grindhouse" at times, but it only adds to the experience. Great slipcover and extras. Recommended!"

Keith M. (5/5)

A trio of Findlay madness

"Again, Distribpix delivers quality : the restoration looks great, the slipcover is beautiful. As for the films, they are crazy concoctions of serial killer madness and violence mixed with the grime of '60s sexploitation. Some of the murders are quite outrageous in their outlandishness."

Tim V. (5/5)

I need to own every Something Weird release

"I am absolutely LOVING every single of these releases. Only need a few more and I own them all!"

Taylor S. (5/5)

Flesh

"Great slipcover and case. I got this because how out there Roberta Findley is and wanted to see her husbands work. Great looking restoration. Even though I like the art student quality of these sexploitation films from the 60s, it's sort of dull at times. Overall, it's okay."

Michael P. (3/5)

A Descent into Grindhouse Obsession

"Michael Findlay’s Flesh Trilogy remains a raw artifact of late 1960s underground cinema, driven by voyeuristic energy and a grim fascination with violence and desire. Across The Touch of Her Flesh, The Curse of Her Flesh, and The Kiss of Her Flesh, Findlay crafts a feverish spiral of revenge and psychosexual mania. The films are rough, abrasive, and unapologetically confrontational, yet they hold a strange power as snapshots of a fringe filmmaking era where shock ruled and boundaries barely existed. This trilogy is not polished or subtle, but it is undeniably memorable for viewers drawn to the darker corners of exploitation history."

Jimmy W. (5/5)

Nice trilogy

"Great release, bravo."

Valentins S. (5/5)

All Time Classic

"Three of the best Findlays!"

Nick C. (5/5)

Great Trilogy

"Great trilogy of films by Michael Findlay. Good value. Another good release."

Peter D. (5/5)

Still Cool and Sleazy

"I got this on DVD years ago and now it's on Blu Ray this not for those who don't care for the sleaze because this is Michael Findlay at his sleaziest it's his Flesh Trilogy. If you like this stuff like me Get It."

Mark R. (5/5)
