Here's another of these misguided sexploitation films that never really hits it's mark, and falls weary like a lot of these dramas. This Emanuelle has some nasty violence mixed in, the daughter is hot indeed (the nude shower scene stays in my head) This is typically a revenge film, of Emanuelle settling some old ugly scores, the daughter oblivious of her activity. The daughter falls is love also. It's that age. A dangerous mafia figure gets to know the daughter too, where in the end, he gives it to her old. ED is just another of these muddled Italia sex pics, good for birdwatching. The daughter is one of very few reasons to watch this, in an adult pic that delivers on nudity and sex, but not much else I'm afraid.

Given the title, one might be forgiven for thinking that Emanuelle Queen of Sados has its dusky star Laura Gemser playing the wicked ruler of an ancient, lost kingdom of the type to be found in the classic H. Rider Haggard novel She. Sadly, this is not the case: what we actually get is yet another mediocre adventure for the sultry sex-mad siren in which, as usual, she gets to bonk just about everyone else in the film.This time around, Emanuelle isn't a world famous reporter, but rather the vengeful wife of a businessman who is out to settle the score after being sexually abused by her despicable hubby Victor and his equally nasty colleagues, Ilona (Nadia Neri) and Robert (Gordon Mitchell).After hiring a killer named Mario (Haris Tryfonas) to bump off her wicked spouse in a 'flying accident', Emanuelle is appointed the executor of her step-daughter Livia's inheritance, plus control over her late husband's business, and wastes no time in making life hard for Ilona and Robert. Upset at Emanuelle's interference, and not entirely convinced that Victor's death was accidental, Robert decides to do some investigating which makes Mario less than happy...A Greek Cypriot production directed by Ilias Mylonakos, Sados never plumbs the depths of tastelessness reached by Italian filth-monger Joe D'amato in his more infamous Emanuelle films: the sex is strictly soft-core—raunchy but not explicit—and there is certainly no gore to speak of. Despite this, Sados does manage to be uncomfortable viewing at times, thanks to the presence of jail-bait actress Livia Russo, who as blossoming teen Livia not only has to strip off for a shower scene and dance suggestively (flashing her gusset), but also be subjected to a harrowing sex attack that spares no detail. I've no problem with nudity (I wouldn't be watching a Gemser film if I did), but someone that young getting her kit off in a soft-core porn flick just feels wrong.But hey, I suppose that's why they call it exploitation!5.5 out of 10, rounded up to 6 for killer stud Mario's silky shirt and massive flares.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Goddess Gemser is beautiful.This is typical of the films she had been doing. Rich, greedy people trying to put one over on each other. Said people have weird ideas about love too.She starts by fiddling with a guy in order to get him to kill another guy by pouring sand into his airplane gas. She succeeds, then takes over a young woman's life.She plays out of type here though. She's meant to be seen as evil. Her actions were those of a real harpy.The scenery was lush and the nudity was rampant but the story was a bit old. Fans of Goddess Gemser (ME ME ME) will enjoy it for sure.

Complete nonsense with awful dialogue but above average as a sex movie. Gemser, of course is as lovely as ever, but given a little too much to do here and what with the rambling of the script she has little chance, even if she fares better than most who seem to take it in turns to under act and over act. Taking the storyline seriously is a bad mistake but the many and varied sex sequences are fine. If you don't mind sex mixed with more than a little violence that is. Here we get rape and near rape, an extraordinary scene where a medallion wearing gentleman disturbs a woman in his flat, knocks her about a bit and then considers that sex would be a good idea and the couple fall into each other's arms, and other almost jaw dropping moments. Unbelievable shots of Gemser nude astride a horse deep in the sea which may or may not be supposed to contrast with a later rape of a young girl in the shallow surf!
