Also known as Dirty Pictures', this fabulously trippy sexploitation thriller from Umberto Lenzi (Paranoia, Cannibal Ferox, Nightmare City) is a lost classic long unavailable to fans of classy kinky flicks. In the now increasingly common madness that appears to grip Shameless they've dug-up never-before-seen lost footage of the eye-popping kind to present this world-first complete edit of Oasis of Fear. In addition to that the movie is being made available for the first time with the long-sought after and thought-to-be-lost English sound dub. Two young sexually free hippies, Dick (Ray Lovelock) and Ingrid (Ornella Muti) finance their travels by selling naked snaps of Ingrid until their plan is brought to an abrupt end by the Police. Forced on the run the two seek refuge at a seemingly empty isolated large villa. As it turns out the house is inhabited by the middle-aged Barbara (Irene Papas) who invites them in for some potential three-way hanky-panky that soon locks them into something far more twisted and chilling! Set to a toe-tapping catchy pop score and filled with deliciously naked female flesh this is also an intriguingly dreamy giallo from the underrated Lenzi that chills into a suspense-ridden climax. Oasis of Fear (cert. 18) is released uncut on DVD by Shameless Screen Entertainment. The film is presented as a world-first Shameless rebuild edit, remastered in 2.35:1 with English 2.0 sound, in Region 0. Also included on the disc is a comprehensive Shameless subtitle commentary fact track, an original trailer gallery & collectable reverse artwork.

Good Movie
This is a very cool movie it has that psychedelic euro late 60"s early 7o's feel to it not really a giallio but similar with a lot of twists and turns to it , definitely worth checking out.

erotic giallo (sort of)
This isn't your typical giallo. Hundreds of giallos need to be released still by the way. Great flicks in which a killer stalks victims and usually you only see their arms as they do it. Films like 'the killer reserved nine seats' all those great flicks are being misplaced by shameless. Instead we do get this decent lenzi film about a young couple who plot with a woman to kill her husband. Lenzi made the great giallo 'eyeball' which is available on amazon.de entitled 'labrynth of the shrekens' and many other good films too. This was decent but not great, it's a good b movie . The acting here is first rate which puts this one above other b movies somewhat. It's not a murder mystery as much as a erotic early 70's flick about a planned murder and betrayal. Will the older woman seduce the couple and use them? are they using her? Well you just have to watch it. I love Italian cinema so this was a good one for me , and this is a good erotic thriller. Now shameless common and PLease get some real giallos out. there's hundreds of them out there that have never been on a dvd yet.
