Ray Lovelock plays a young husband who suffers from erectile dysfunction and is unable to consummate his marriage to his beautiful new wife (Edwige Fenech). Renzo Montagnini plays the husband's studly, sex-obsessed uncle who takes an interest in helping out, but he himself is too busy plowing through the luscious female cast, so it is left up to the husband's sexy mother-in-law (Carroll Baker) to take matters in hand.
This movie requires A LOT of suspension of disbelief. It's hard to believe ANY man would suffer from ED around the gorgeous Edwige Fenech, let alone a virile young guy like Lovelock. It's also pretty hard to buy American Carroll Baker as Edwige Fenech's mother since the two actresses weren't all that far apart in age (and look nothing alike). Finally, the hairy and overweight Montagnini once again severely stretches plausibility cast as an irresistible lothario sought after by the likes of his married neighbor (Gabriella Giorgelli), his other nephew's fiancée (Maria Rosario Riuzzi), and his two frisky maids. As goofy Italian sex comedies go, this is fairly effective though. Marino Girolami's direction is adequate; not as good as someone like Sergio Martino, but better than a lot of the hacks that worked in this genre. There is also A LOT of nudity by the female cast, especially Fenech, Giorgelli, and Riuzzi (Carroll Baker a little less so).
I don't know if this will have much appeal to people who don't like Italian sex comedies in general, but I'd recommend it for those that do. It's a pretty stereotypical entry into the genre.
