A Thousand and One Erotic Nights Part II: The Forbidden Tales

The pair of these films really tell the story of shot on film hardcore. The previous film from a few years earlier feels like an epic form the height of the porno chic era. This one feels like a low budget last gasp to shoot on film. Plot wise it could almost be a remake. The Sultan is bored so his Magician starts a contest to find the most sexually skilled woman in the kingdom, at least for the first half when they pretty much give up on it. It's got a game cast, but the lighter tone doesn't help and the film just plods along as a typical, near non-stop sex film from the era. When legends like Jamie Gillis and Nina Hartley can't elevate the material, you're in trouble.
