Sexploitation auteur Joe Sarno first explored the dark side of the American dream in his 1964 drama, Sin in the Suburbs, hailed by DVDDrive-In as “a ground-breaking masterpiece” and “the first in the ‘suburban sex secrets’ subgenre.” 10 years later, his return to this theme resulted in one of the most critically and commercially successful films of his career, Confessions of a Young American Housewife.
Sin in the Suburbs (1964) - Audrey Campbell (Olga series) stars as Geraldine Lewis, a lonely housewife and mother who distracts herself with racy friends and a secret affair. Discovered in the arms of another man, Geraldine immerses herself in a secret sex club, only to find a shocking secret revealed!
Confessions of a Young American Housewife (1974) - New York sophisticates Carole and Eddie spice up their sex life by swapping partners with their close friends, Anna and Pete. An unexpected visit from Carole’s young, attractive and recently widowed mother Jennifer throws a temporary wrench into their plans, but the quartet are soon back in action after Pete tries and fails to seduce Jennifer in the kitchen. Intoxicated by life and lust, Jennifer begins a May-December romance. Stars Rebecca Brooke and Jennifer Wells.
Warm Nights and Hot Pleasures (1964) - Never before released on any home video format. In 1964’s Warm Nights and Hot Pleasures, Joe Sarno tells the tale of three ambitious college girls who head to New York City, eager to make their mark on Broadway. Short on funds, the girls rent a room from a men’s magazine model and are soon immersed in a lurid world of wild parties, risque men’s clubs and sleazy casting couches. Lessons are learned and hearts are broken as each one decides just how far she will go for stardom. Featuring Bettie Page-style bondage and female wrestling, Warm Nights and Hot Pleasures is a sultry snapshot of Manhattan of the early 1960s. Teaser trailer is available here.
A new essay by film historian Tim Lucas and copious extras (listed above) round out this definitive edition of three Sarno classics, newly restored from the original film elements and presented for the first time to home entertainment in high definition.
