LET’S GET PHYSICAL: PORNO NIGHTS OF THE WORLD NO. 2 (1978) ***

“E-‘MAY’-NUELLE”

FORMAT:  BLU-RAY

Joe D’Amato returns with another sexy (fake) Mondo movie.  Even though he made two of these with Laura Gemser (this was released two weeks before Emanuelle and the Porno Nights of the World), Ajita Wilson fills in as the hostess time out.  The wraparound sequences find a stewardess (Wilson) returning home from a long flight to be interviewed by a sexy reporter.  While undressing, she talks about all the exotic nightclubs she’s visited around the world. 

First up is a “Ping Pong Club” in Hong Kong where a woman shoots ping pong balls out of her hoo-hah and into the customer’s drinks (accompanied by hilarious space gun “pew-pew” sound effects).  Next, we’re off to Dallas to see a stripper perform a Native American-inspired dance number.  (I believe we would call that “Cultural Appropriation” nowadays.)  Then, we meet a couple who bang on a boat before setting off to the Middle East to watch a belly dancer shake and shimmy.  Next, we watch a lesbian floor show with a ‘20s motif followed by a bout of female mud wrestling.  Ajita herself is featured in the following segment performing a dance number with a nude man painted up like the statue of David.  Then we check out an S & M dance number that looks like 50 Shades of Bobby and Cissy.  That’s followed by more sadist shenanigans of German couples using whips and chains on each other, including a scene where a dominatrix makes her submissive eat shit.  (It looks like chocolate pudding.)  Wilson then performs a striptease for a giant stone phallus.  This is followed by an odd segment that looks like a home movie showcasing “repressed” (white) Americans reacting to a “liberated” (black) dancer.  Next is a great scene where a woman does a striptease dressed as Zorro.  The apex of the debauchery comes during a French striptease version of Swan Lake that quickly veers into Pedro the Horse territory, if you know what I mean.  That’s followed by a Las Vegas orgy which for me, was by far the weakest sequence, but then again anything would’ve felt anticlimactic next to the Swan Lake Pony Show.  Lastly, the reporter finally puts her tape recorder away so she and Ajita can bone. 

This would make a pretty good double feature with Crazy Nights as both films are Mondo movies starring trans women directed by Joe D’Amato.  It’s not nearly as fun as that manic classic, but I enjoyed it more than either of the Laura Gemser-starring Porno Nights of the World films.  It’s more entertaining from scene to scene and Wilson’s host segments have a lot of energy.  Plus, the Swan Lake scene alone is enough to give you déjà vu from Emanuelle in America. 

Wilson gets the best line of the movie when she tells about some of the women she’s encountered:  “If they don’t give you a big hand, they might as well give you the clap!”
