Young, nubile, and virginal Justine (Romina Power, Tyrone Power's 18-year-old daughter) is cast out of a French orphanage and thrust into a depraved world of prostitution, predatory lesbians, a fugitive murderess (Mercedes McCambridge), bondage, branding, and one supremely sadistic monk (an outrageous performance by Jack Palance). It's a twisted tale of strange desires, perverse pleasures, and the ultimate corruption of innocence as told by the Marquis de Sade. One of the most lavish and bizarre erotic shockers ever made by the notorious Jess Franco, Justine is bursting with wanton nudity, sexual perversion, and an all-star cast including Akim Tamiroff (Touch of Evil), Maria Rohm (Venus in Furs), and Klaus Kinski (Nosferatu) as the Marquis de Sade. Originally released with over 30 minutes cut, this infamous film is presented here fully restored and completely uncensored for the first time!
Editor's Note
Directed by the notorious Jess Franco (VAMPYROS LESBOS), this shocking tale involves a young girl thrown out of an orphanage and falling prey to prostitution, bondage and a depraved monk played by Jack Palance. This story of innocence corrupted comes straight from the pen of the Marquis de Sade, and no less an actor than Klaus Kinski is chosen by Franco to play De Sade in this feature. Full of nudity and perversion, this sordid tale includes over 30 minutes of restored footage originally cut from the final version.
