Anecdotes
Elmos Kallman (played by Olivier Mathot) is reading the novel "Une femme au nom d'étoile", by Jules Roy, in the hardback edition of Grasset, 1968, in the collection collection Les chevaux du soleil. The content of the novel is not pertinent to the movie story, but the title is, as a woman named Alpha is central to the plot.

Autres versions
The English-language version - released in Japan with Japanese subtitles and optical fogging as well as Spanish television with Spanish subtitles - features plain credits over the opening dressing room sequence. The French version runs twenty minutes shorter but has also lost more footage due to the inclusion of hardcore body double inserts. The French version features animated titles superimposed over the strip show cabaret sequence. Severin Films' Blu-ray features the longer English-language softcore version with newly-created credits.

There 'aint no sight finer than, Lina Romay's silky star-spangled vagina!

A voluptuous, faintly sinister pan-dimensional being, Alpha (Evelyn Scott) and her randy, taciturn, sunspex-sporting sex slave coerce luridly libidinous nightclub artiste, Cynthia (Lina Romay) into a wild, surrealistic, kaleidoscopically kooky, hyper-sexualized conspiracy! Mercurial muck maestro, Jesus Franco's arty, esoteric, glamorously glistering 80s Euro-smut remains a daringly explicit, stridently sensual, provocatively strange experience. Absurd, garish, and weirdly compelling, only those who are profoundly immoral could ever find fault with luxuriously luscious, Lina Romay's immaculately 'Shining Sex'. While episodic, and not especially refined, this arguably features one of, Lina Romay's most mesmerisingly uninhibited performances, her entrancingly provocative, Cynthia proves to be a scintillatingly sexual protagonist, and frequent Franco collaborator, Daniel White provides another exemplary score.
