The Joys of Jezebel (1970)
** (out of 4)
The one and only Lucifer allows Jezebel to leave Hell and return to Earth under one condition. She must take over the body of the virgin Rachel but things don't go as planned.
THE JOYS OF JEZEBEL was produced by David F. Friedman and while it's not one of his best films it's at least mildly entertaining for fans of the genre. If you're expecting any sort of plot here then you can forget about it because the only "story" going on here is wall to wall sex. It's not really uncommon for these types of movies to be lacking on plots but this one here really takes that to a whole new level and what we've basically got is a sexploitation movie that seems a lot like those softcore pictures that would show up on Cinemax decades later.
I guess you can give credit to Friedman and director Peter Perry, Jr. credit for just delivering what the paying people wanted. If nudity is what you're looking for then you'll be happy to know that there's plenty here and even better is the fact that the majority of the women are extremely attractive. This is certainly true for Dixie Donovan (has to be a fake name!?!?!) who plays Rachel. She's a very beautiful blonde with a big pair of you know what. Not only is she easy on the eyes but she also gave a pretty decent performance all things considered.
Obviously THE JOYS OF JEZEBEL isn't going to be for everyone. At just 76-minutes the film does drag at spots but for the most part this is worth watching if you're a fan of the genre.
