Erotic Diary of an Office Lady
(1977)
This film, originally titled OL kanno nikki: Ah! Watashi no naka
de, was the last and best known in the Office Lady series of Nikkatsu Roman Pornos,
which were
essentiallyT&A softcore.
Asami Ogawa is an office worker who lives with her father
and seems prim and proper. The reality is that she is having a
torrid affair with her married boss. Asami's father tries to arrange
a marriage for her, but she is torn between the boss and a young man
who raises and sells chicks on the street. For entertainment, Asami
likes spying on the office slut, who takes very unique breaks, and
she eventually brings her lusty colleague home to meet dad. The two decide to get
married.
It would still be many years before
public hair first made its appearance in Japanese film, but Asami Ogawa
shows breasts and buns, and does an Oscar worthy job of moaning. Aoi
Nakajima, as the slut, shows breasts.
The Widescreen transfer is very nice, and
the optional English subtitles are also good. This film is not heavy
with dialogue, so even those bothered by subtitles might enjoy it.

The Tripper
This very strange but good horror flick combines the 60's, 80's and
present when it throws drugged-up hippies, Ronald Reagan, and post-9/11
mentality cops together at a rock concert in the woods called Love Fest.
Hippies are gathering at a concert being given in a national forest.
The locals are none too thrilled, so there are several incidents of rock
throwing and altercations, and things are even more complex as attendees
keep getting caught in traps laid by the local pot growers who use the
woods to grow their crops, and want to protect the weed from the hippies.
The local cops would love to throw everyone in jail, but the mayor wants
the town's split from the festival, so they are under orders to keep
everyone safe and happy.
Unfortunately, things get nasty when Ronald Reagan shows up wielding an
axe and starts offing the partygoers. As the body count mounts, things
just keep getting crazier.
Yeah, a strange but weirdly brilliant horror film, definitely worth
watching.
