The Head Mistress (1968)
Allegedly based on a pair of stories from The Decameron (it's been a while since I've read it, but somehow I think that claim is greatly exaggerated), this cheeky period-nudie romp has quite a bit more going for it than the average 1960s sexploitationer. For one, it's mostly not boring, which is something to be proud of when three-quarters of your film is comprised of people badly simulating the sex act. The girls are attractive, there's a smattering of wit and *gasp!* even something of a plot. Also, there is foot fetishism. Also, there is a horny and homicidal tree.
Grade: C+
