Turntabling has gotten in quite a few erotica and softcore soundtrack titles lately, but The Erotic and Painful Obsessions of Jess Franco combines horror and softcore to great effect. This CD is a collection of three Jesse Franco soundtracks by Gerarh Heinz, who is a favorite on the Turntabling speakers.
Things get started nicely with the soundtrack to Lolita Am Scheidweg, also known as Eugenie. Next is the OST for Franco’s Bloody Moon, which has a couple of startlingly disco-fied cuts, but gets into some slightly Goblin-esque euro-horror territory with Die Sage des Todes suite. Giorgio Moroder fans will be pleased by Disco Alternativ, and when the disc finally heads into the home stretch with the softcore OST for Linda, we’re almost in Morricone territory with Die Madchen im Kloster and Im Strandcafe.
A little bossa, a little horror, some disco…what’s not to love about The Erotic and Painful Obsessions of Jess Franco? This is easily one of the most enjoyable titles we carry.
