LOVE TOY

Doris Wishman, USA, 1971, AGFA + Something Weird, Cult

"It’s a fun, charming, sleazy trip, all set to very relaxing lounge music."
—Annie Choi, BLEEDING SKULL!

No one will ever make movies like Doris Wishman made movies. One of the most prolific women filmmakers in the history of American cinema, writer-director-editor Wishman created DIY collisions between surrealism and exploitation that feel like they materialized from an alternate universe. LOVE TOY—Wishman's wild take on the pulpy world of high stakes betting—finds card shark pervert Alex "winning" a woman named Chris in a poker game. But little does Alex know that Chris is perhaps even more twisted than he is. A grimy parade of demented role-playing, wall-to-wall sex, and shocking violence, LOVE TOY has been newly restored in 2K from its original 35mm camera negative.
