The cautionary tale of an innocent girl abroad who gets caught up in the sleazy world of modelling, Her Private Hell was the debut feature of British exploitation director Norman J Warren (Satans Slave, Prey and Terror) and the UK's first narrative sex film.

Beautiful but nave Marisa arrives from the continent for a job as a fashion model but soon discovers she's being groomed for a different purpose. Starring Italian actress Lucia Modugno (Il Generale della Rovere, Diabolik), the film ran for over a year in London and put Britain on the map in the realm of home grown adult features.

Her Private Hell (1968) [ReUp]

The feature length debut from famed British horror and exploitation filmmaker Norman J. Warren, 1967’s Her Private Hell was produced by cinema owner Bachoo Sen, who would also bank roll the next years Loving Feeling, another sex film directed by Warren. While the Americans and the Italians had been making racier and racier films a few years prior, it wasn’t until Warren entered the scene that Britain was graced with its ‘first narrative sex film’ – as such, the film has quite a bit of historical significance when you take into account what would come down the pipeline in later years.

The film follows the misadventures of an Italian model named Marisa (played by the dark haired and exotic looking Lucia Modugno) who makes her way to England to pose for a photographer named Bernie (Terrance Skelton). Soon enough, Bernie’s boss, Margaret (Pearl Catlin), has got Marisa signed to a contract and her photos are making her a pretty hot up and comer. Margaret’s more difficult boss, Neville (Robert Crewdson), however, is a bit harder to please. He insists that Marisa pose for some nude shots, and after a bit of coercing, she agrees.

Soon enough, the company is taking care of Marisa and she’s boarding in a giant house that Bernie lives in with a few other company types, mostly models. Once she’s left alone for a weekend though, Marisa hooks up with Matt (an obviously dubbed Daniel Oliver), a lab worker for the company who might actually be a better photographer than even Bernie. He talks her into heading out into the country and posing for him – though eventually one of her nude shots is published, against her will, over on the continent. This causes her to rethink everything she’s become involved with and to distrust those she thought she could trust, learning the hard way that no good will come of nudie modeling!

While the film seems pretty tame by modern standards, its sexual content limited to some racy opening credits and a few nude topless shots scattered throughout, the film nevertheless made quite a splash when it debuted in England, playing for a year straight upon its initial release. The picture was also released in the United States with some slightly racier footage included in it for that less conservative demographic, but it remains an interesting look back at London right as it was smack dab in the middle of the sexual revolution spreading across Europe and North America at the time. The perfect example of this is the party scene, in which Michael is hoping to lure Marisa away from Bernie, who is in turn trying to make Marisa jealous by dancing a little too closely with a foxy competing model who lets her dress down and dances against some strange lighting effects. Complete with plenty of mod styles, go-go boots and a fuzzed out soundtrack, it’s a movie that could only have come from late sixties London, and we’re all the better for it.

As far as the performances go, all involved do fine work here. Lucia Modugno, who had a couple of bit parts in a few Mario Bava films and a few interesting Spaghetti Westerns prior to taking this role, looks great here even if she comes across as naïve and maybe just a little bit of a dip. The rest of the cast are a little more convincing in their roles, with Skelton actually succeeding in convincing us of his emotional conflict and Catlin playing the queen bitch of the business with plenty of sassy style. Crewdson manages to steal the few scenes he’s in, his stand out moment when he puts Marisa in her place. She initially laughs at him, noting that he’s ‘so British’ – something which he puts a stop to right away by undoing the buttons on her top and noting to her that maybe he’s not as British as she thinks he is. When you think of Warren and company as Neville and the British film industry as Marisa, the scene becomes a little more poignant.

Plenty stylish and well paced, this one moves on to its wacky shock ending without ever overstaying its welcome. Warren would go on to make more interesting films than this but Her Private Hell remains a good watch – plenty entertaining, wonderfully dated, and yes, historically important. Obviously realizing the importance of this film, the BFI have rolled out the red carpet for Her Private Hell, a seminal entry in the annals of British exploitation fare. The transfer is likely as good as it’s ever going to get at this point and the extras are not only plentiful but also quite interesting, complimenting the feature attraction perfectly.
