 Unsatisfied Love (1968) aka Love After Death. – Glauco Del Mar.


An impotent cataleptic is hurriedly buried alive, and when he awakens from his not-so eternal slumber, he discovers, to his horror, that his body effects the semblance of life, yet his regenerative organ remains frustratingly quite dead!!! Seeing the grossly discombobulated Mr. Montell (Guillermo De Cordova) stumbling dazedly through the desolate graveyard, one can't help but recall Night of The Living Dead Penis. Part cheapjack Poe, part roughie Peep Show, Del Mar's necromantic revenge schlocker should come with a full colour decal of 'If y'all see this coffin's rockin', don't come a Knockin! The basic premise is sound, a lurid amalgam of Freudian nightmares, a sexually incapacitated male, once preternaturally aroused from death, would, quite naturally, seek out a cosy cupboard to covertly observe couples making whoopee, it also follows that he would inevitably become aroused, attempt to participate, and upon doing so, he remedies his impotency, supernaturally revenging himself upon all those that profited so eagerly from his death! Intellectually more probing than comparably mucky fare by Findlay and Wishman, I believe there is some argument that suggests Glauco Del Mar's Peek-a-boo oeuvre owes more to Kinsey than 42nd Street. Unsatisfied Love is an unheralded titan of progressive 60s erotica, unrecognised in his lifetime, this gin-soaked scribe hopes B-Icon Del Mar is deservedly canonized during mine!
