The basic story of 'Love Goddess..' is that a nuclear energy company want to build a power plant on an idyllic Carribean island so the residents start killing anyone and everyone who works for the company, Papayo, the love goddess in the title is the venus fly trap, the voodoo priestess, the sex siren and ecologist although I'm not entirely sure she's a cannibal as she only chows down on one piece of meat in the whole film, although I have to admit that it'd put me off inviting her round for dinner.
A cynic might say that the whole film is a pretence to cram one slice of nudity in after the next, including a great tub scene, a voodoo scene where everyone gets naked and climaxing with a girl on girl scene with the olive skinned Papayo (played by Michelle) and Sara (played by the deliciously boobed Sirpa Lane) and for the film crew to spend a month in the sun in the Dominican Republic but a less cynical person might say that it's a film ahead of its time, a film about ecology, the destruction of the earth, global corporations killing of local traditions and eroding ways of life but to be honest, Sirpa Lane really does have terrific boobs.
You might want to avoid this film if you're an animal lover as there's a cock fight and 2 pigs get their throats slit and stomachs gutted and to my eyes, the pigs looked pretty real and there's no 'No animals were harmed' disclaimer at the end so be warned.
All in all, an okay part of the Shameless catalogue, it's no 'New York Ripper' though.

They say that sex sells, and this is the line that Shameless Screen Entertainment have taken for its second batch of releases. It's been the best part of a year since Shameless have bought us some unadulterated Italian cinema, and now they are back. Last time round they bought us some classic thrillers or Giallo for those in the know, this time round they are focusing all about the sex, with some spicy genre bending titles. The first releases are Satan's Baby Doll and Love Goddess Of The Cannibals, two movies that are available for the first time in the UK, and in versions that have longer prints than other countries.

Love Goddess Of The Cannibals is a 1978 offering from notorious director Joe D'Amato whose movies include the highly controversial Porno Holocaust and Erotic Nights Of The Living Dead. D'Amato's output mainly focused on the sex and death category a monopoly that he himself dominated, the director made over 190 movies that centered on either or both categories. Both of the aforementioned titles were more over the top on what I prefer to refer as "knobs and knockers" features, being more like pornographic movies than anything else. And while being amusing in different ways, were both lacking a great deal in anything with real structure, seeing as Love Goddess Of The Cannibals comes from this era I settled down with some hesitation to watch the movie.

The movie starts in typical D'Amato fashion straight into the sex, a seduction at the hands of the beautiful Papaya (Melissa Chementi) that leads to a mouthful not easily forgotten, either for the viewer or the unlucky man in question. What follows from this is something a little edgy, and for the first time I got a little excited about a D'Amato movie, although obviously not in a way the director intended.

Nothing to do with cannibalism, more based on voodoo but even that can't save what is just poor euro sleaze with a half hearted eco message not what I was expecting and being a shameless fan I'm quite disappointed with this snooze fest of a film some nice locations but ultimately a chore to sit through

Satan's greatest trick was convincing the world he didn't exist.
Shameless's greatest trick was convincing the public that the films they release are full of sleaze, sex and exploitation.
They aren't.
They really are boring crap.
Avoid.

Maybe this film would be better of forgotten... but on the other hand it could be considered a kind of "base-line bad" ! When some movies was more an excuse to show naked women!
