Sex Is Crazy

aka El sexo está loco

Poster of Sex Is Crazy
  • Photo of Stephen Thrower

    What begins as a sexy science fiction comedy turns into a paranoiac crime drama, then swerves off into horror, back to comedy, into deconstructed porno… This proves to be the way throughout the film. … El sexo está loco certainly lives up to its title. The film has a slippery, unstable quality, the product of a highly developed mind with a wayward, capricious wit. … It’s simultaneously the artiest and the silliest of [Jess Franco’s] films, and it plays equally well as a postmodernist deconstruction of his work or a party-hour send-up. A frivolous curio masquerading as jaundiced self-parody? Or is it the other way round? … In the end, this film exists because sex is crazy, art is crazy, and Jess Franco is crazy.
