trashgang Last year this flick was released full uncut (85 minutes) here in our region, as soon as it came out it already vanished again and became an OOP. Strange because this is a weird flick. Mostly it is classified under horror but there isn't anything in it to say it is a horror. It's all about sorcery and the eternal life that can be given if you agree with the rules. It is beautifully shot and even as there isn't that much happening you still keep watching it. All girls look like fairy but that's because the clothes they are wearing. One dance scene takes a bit too long even as it has a lot of nudity. Maybe that's the reason why it is hunted down and has become a French cult flick. There's a lot of nudity in it and a bit of full frontal. Still, it isn't gratuitous and do adds towards the fairy atmosphere. Alfred Baillou (Gurth) is ideal in his role, his face and the androgyny he has given his character is excellent. Most of the actresses in this flick have only performed in a few flicks but they all looked believable. It's a typical French soft erotic 'horror', I would even compare it with Jean Rollins, but then with money and good editing and acting.

videovoid One of the things that makes the 70's a superior era over the 80's for film is the soundtrack. Morgane et Ses Nymphes is no exception to this. The music is charming, without being tacky. Melodic without being intrusive and turning the mood sappy. In the 80's you could have a good film and then when the dischordant synth chords come through, it just always seems to detract rather than enhance. I felt like the composer was very familiar and must have been a very prolific contributor to many films of this genre/era, but I noticed that only one other film has been credited to him. The 3rd Man kept coming to mind... Not that this movie is a masterpiece, but the subject matter is interesting, in the Jean Rollin vein, and it's always an immense pleasure to see women in their au naturel state, pre-silicone. It's easy to see how it could have been perceived as borderline pornographic in 1971. The extras on this DVD are highly recommended. The short film made by the same director is worth a look for sure.

slayrrr666 "Girl Slaves of Morgana Le Fay" is a fine if somewhat unspectacular entry.**SPOILERS**Traveling through the French countryside, friends Françoise, (Mireille Saunin) and Anna, (Michele Perello) wind up lost and are forced off the road. Staying over-night in an abandoned inn, she wakes up to find herself alone, and when Gurth, (Alfred Baillou) arrives, she is sent off to a nearby castle where Morgane, (Dominique Delpierre) resides, telling her of what happened to her friend. Eventually, she comes to realize that she is the leader of a group of witches who use human blood to ensure their own immortality, the process turning them into slaves who do her bidding, and that she is the next chosen one to join the coven. When this angers Yael, (Regine Motte) Sylviane, (Ursule Pauly) and Sarah, (Nathalie Chaine) they agree to sabotage the indoctrination ceremony to protest the change and try to make her see how useful they are to her instead.The News: This one definitely wasn't all that bad and had some good points to it. The fact that it has some really nice amount of nudity that really sticks out nicely. There's a lot of really good nude scenes in here, as the film begins with the right note with the slow-crawl up one women who's completely nude all the way up to the top, and after a lengthy conversation about her heretical ways, is dragged off. It's a fun way to open the film with what's going to be expected. There's also the film's best sequence, where the indoctrination ceremony requires all the women to go about in a sexual frenzy, and it just breaks down into a gigantic lesbian orgy, complete with tons of rubbing, kissing, licking and much more going on in an extreme detail. It's a lot better than expected and really didn't feel all too different from the other kind of erotic sequences that the rest of the film featured. That it goes fully nude and showcases everything in complete display offers up a lot of sleaze potential as well, getting to see everything that's possible and really getting a good look at it works wonders. The first scene with her at the castle, where the two slaves are going at it and the third one joins in only because someone told them too and then it goes all-out in the sleaze stakes which is really fun and generates a good scene. There's also a rather pronounced lesbian vibe that races through the first half, from the tender and erotic moments of them in the barn at the beginning that isn't very explicit at all to the later scenes where she's taken under the wing and included into the cult at the castle, with the way that everything seems to be completely lesbian in overall vibe and feeling without coming out and putting the label on it, making for some nice scenes. The film also has some really nice atmosphere early on with the car drive through the backwoods area being pretty creepy. The fact that it takes place at night through their vision using only the headlights as the only thing producing any visibility for the sequence, and their conversation and the creepy trees being highlighted make it a really enjoyable sequence. There's a couple problems with it, though, as the film doesn't seem as dirty as it could be. There's no violence whatsoever in the film, despite the fact that a little bit wouldn't have hurt it at all. The lone death occurs by stumbling across it after being done off-screen, and that would've worked for injecting some gore or some blood into the proceedings. Also, the nudity doesn't seem as bad as it should've been, since there's only a couple times where it features something, with the majority of the time being about showcasing them in frilly dresses without showing anything too explicit at times. This is due to the film's other mild flaw, the rather slow-going beginning that isn't all that exciting. It's quite boring for the majority of the time, not really doing much and staying quite dull for the first half. It does pick up slightly in the second half, but it's still not all that exciting in the first half, and constitutes the film's real flaws.The Final Verdict: While not as graphic in any respect as most exploitation films normally are, this one was a pleasant enough entry to serve some worth. Give it a shot if you're in need of a film that does what this offers or are a fan of the European-sleaze market, otherwise heed caution with it.Rated UR/R: Full Nudity, several sex scenes and Language

armandcbris This was, admittedly, a film I picked up for the titillation factor, since I enjoy the sight of women from the 70's in their natural, undressed Euro glory.However, this film was done in such a way as to find me enjoying it throughout, despite my initial misgivings. Granted, I don't think it's the greatest movie ever, but the settings and the "fairy-tale" feel of it I found to be quite good, and the erotic elements were considerably enjoyable. The dialogue also wasn't as cheesy as I was expecting, which is always a good thing, considering many similar films of that era can't escape those faults.The DVD is quite good, the quality of the picture is excellent, and includes a good interview with the director, Bruno Gantillon. Recommended for fans of 70's erotica and fantasy.
