After a severe car accident that results in facial reconstruction and also while acting under the influence of a sexually obsessed and overbearing boyfriend / husband (Matthew Armon), a young woman named Eve ultimately finds herself wrapped up in the deviant debauchery of the swingers lifestyle of the early-70's. Such is the case in "Resurrection of Eve", an overall-good, 1973 classic from Artie Mitchell and Jon Fontana.

The Little Details Running Time: 84 min. Production Date: 1973 Director: Jon Fontana and Artie Mitchell Cast: Marilyn Chambers, Kandy Jones, Mimi Morgan, Nancy Welch, Clay Hyde, Dale Meador, Gerald Graystone, Johnnie Keyes, Jon Martin, Ken Scudder, Matthew Arnon, and Tyler Reynolds in sexual roles and Damona Martin, June Richards, Pam Francis, Bentley Christmas, and Cozy Edmundson in non-sex roles, with many more in both sexual and non-sex roles The Short Story Initial Expectations: I havent seen any of the Mitchell Brothers work, but Im going in with pretty high expectations with how much of pioneers they were for adult film. Initial Reaction: Its okay, but often felt a little too limited Who Should Watch It : Golden age porn fans Who Should Avoid It: Anybody who hasnt tried golden age porn yet The Technical Stuff Audio /Video Quality: The technical aspects are pretty good when one considers that the movie was shot on film over twenty years ago.

"Resurrection of Eve", the Mitchell Brothers follow up to "Behind the Green Door" is a different kind of adult film on many levels. First of all, the character development and ambition of this project is unprecedented for the genre. Secondly, it is an adult film in which the sex itself is actually shadowed by the storyline. With that being said, I wouldn't recommend the movie for somebody just looking to get a quick fix. The story follows a woman named Eve (played at different points in her life by Nancy Welch, Marilyn Chambers, and Mimi Morgan). She meets a smooth DJ named Frank Paradise (Matthew Arnon) whom she falls in love with and eventually marries. A soft spot for Frank, however, is Eve's friendship with black boxer Johnnie Keyes (playing himself). He gets insanely jealous, despite absolutely nothing going on. This eventually leads to a breakup, which leads to Eve (Mimi Morgan)getting into a disfiguring accident. After the accident, she is Marilyn Chambers. The movie is very involving and we could actually believe these are real people.

Whether this film is worth viewing for you depends on what you are looking for from the film. If you are looking for an erotic film for self gratification or to stimulate yourself and your significant other, this is not the film for you and not worth the time it will take you to watch it. If you are looking for a film to sit back and actually watch that doesn't fall into conventional cinema, this might be the film for you, just remember it is a product of the early seventies by filmmakers on large quantities of drugs, so it isn't the most coherent film you will ever watch.
