SHE KILLED IN ECSTASY
VAMPYROS LESBOS

You need some Soledad in your collection.

PAULA-PAULA is pretty good if you fancy non-narrative, experimental weirdness.

Default Starting a Jess Franco collection

ILSA - THE WICKED WARDEN though not an official entry in the series is still good, but avoid the heavily cut UKR2
FACELESS is imo one of his best films, I have the R1 w/good extras
I'm still trying to find THE AWFUL DR. ORLOF at a good price
BARBED WIRE DOLLS is a typical WIP sleazy fun film
I saw UK dvd JACK THE RIPPER years ago and laughable at the terrible dubbing with Kinski sounding posh if I recall
TENDER FLESH/LUST FOR FRANKENSTEIN are crazy SOV films with some good scenes but not among his best

The UK dvd has the german soundtrack on it as well. It provides a MUCH better experience.

I can definitely recommend Kiss Me Monster; great kitschy fun imho. You should be able to pick it up cheaply on Amazon, too. Sadly, many of the other UK Franco releases seem to be heavily cut. I have always had a soft spot for Vampyros Lesbos, as this was my first exposure to both Jess Franco and Euro-sleaze in general as a teenager.

Today, from Amazon, my Jess Franco Boxset collection 1 arrived.

I really like the presentation. Mostly black, with a little bit of gold.

I had put off buying this, due to not wanting to encourage the censorship of films in Britain. But recently I thought, I could get this and buy uncut versions of individual dvds as well.

Now, I'm going to get the individual, uncut versions of the films which are cut in the boxset.

Aw, (sigh) it never ends being a film collector.
