I didn't exactly have high hopes for the ridiculously named "Erotic Images". It was never released on DVD, and stars an obviously past-it Britt Ekland, whose days of fame were clearly behind her. To make matters worse, I checked this page and found nobody had even bothered to review it. It's rare I watch a movie with zero reviews.
I expected to quit "Erotic Images" early on, therefore. But for some reason I didn't. I watched it all the way to the end. I know it's not the nudity that kept me watching, because I've quit on movies that had more nudity than this did. There was just something watchable about it, and I don't know what.
It certainly wasn't the story. As near as I can tell, the movie is about Britt Ekland as some writer who cheats on her husband, and then he cheats on her. Prior to that there was a scene where a girl strips naked in his office and he rebuffs her.
There seemed to be quite a bit of extraneous stuff before that story came into its own, and I wasn't sure what it was supposed to be about.
Ekland is still a charismatic screen presence into her forties, though certainly no longer a great beauty. Her male costars all sound and look the same, which is another problem with the movie. At least she stands out.
I'm not sure what else to say about it. It wasn't as bad as I expected, and it had quite a bit of nudity - though I don't think there was any sex? I wouldn't cross the road to see it at a movie theatre, but I wouldn't set it on fire either. So I give it 5/10.
