Okay, so I finally got my hands on this 'Eugenie' collector's edition, and wow—what a trip! First off, Christopher Lee being totally unaware he was in an S&M flick based on Marquis de Sade? Iconic. The bonus features spill all the tea, and honestly, it might be Jess Franco's peak.

The pacing? A bit slow, but hey, it’s vintage exploitation—what did you expect? Franco’s films are like... beautiful women lounging around with minimal plot. This one has *some* lesbian scenes (yay?), but let’s be real: if you’re here for hardcore De Sade vibes, the book club meets elsewhere. Franco’s version is tame compared to the source material.

Visually? Gorgeous sets, stunning actresses, and Franco’s direction isn’t *totally* amateur hour. But don’t expect deep character immersion—just enjoy the nude parade. 'Justine' is his masterpiece, but this ‘Eugenie’ is a fun shelf-puller for... certain moods.

Now, the Blu-ray/DVD combo is a steal! But heads up: the print quality wobbles between crisp and ‘did someone smudge the lens?’ Distracting? Yes. Dealbreaker? Not if you love Franco’s chaotic charm.

Final verdict: A must for exploitation collectors, a curiosity for Lee fans, and a solid ‘meh’ for anyone expecting high art. Pokédex rule applies—gotta catch ’em all!
