"It's a great documentary on everything related to the erotic thriller genre. The interviews are insightful and interesting. It gives us a better understanding of the context in which these films were made. It would be really interesting to have access to all the films featured, which isn't yet the case."
"Loved the framing concept, and even if the film is a little too long, it’s such a loving tribute to such a maligned genre."
