The Eroticist (1972)

The Eroticist (1972) exposes a little-known discipline of the Catholic Church. That demonic possession is cured through exorcism is common knowledge, but this film blows the lid off of the Church's battles with the sexual evil spirit that takes possession of a man's flesh crucifix. In this case it's the member of Senator Pupis, who has an uncontrollable urge to pinch women's bottoms. It can be quite the embarrassment when those women are visiting dignitaries from another state. In desperation, the touchy-feelie Senator seeks out spiritual guidance from the clergy. Along the way Anita Strindberg doesn't make things easy. As the French ambassador's wife, she is seen in the Senator's fantasy in a dollar-bill G-string with gold-coin pasties. Talk about hard currency! But Laura Antonelli, as the Sister who pleases this mister, is no tease and causes a filibuster in the Senator's pants when she loses her top and eventually everything else. The Eroticist is a devil of a good time.
