Doris Wishman was easily the most prolific female director in history, making over 30 films during her career as a low-budget sexploitation director in an utterly male-dominated field. Quirky, experimental, innovative, artistic, and hilarious, her films have outlandish plots that put John Waters to shame, and take their place in the roster of cult films as some of the wackiest skinflicks ever made. In INDECENT DESIRES, Zeb is an eccentric who finds love with a plastic doll he finds in the trash. When he caresses his newfound paramour he can't get over how lifelike she feels; the pretty blonde Ann, however, is the secret recipient of his touch. She thinks she's going crazy as she feels invisible hands exploring her body, while Zeb can't get enough of his demented obsession. Then, Mary is infatuated with her insipid husband's sleazy brother, Frankie, in MY BROTHER'S WIFE. But when Frankie puts her up to securing some money for them to run away together, he forgets to mention his other girlfriend, Zena.

Wishman was a filmmaker of a unique vision, who often wrote, cast, directed and edited her films, piecing together her stories on next to no budget, and creating a mise-en-scene and filmic language that was all her own. Often there were subversive plot lines and twists that were far outside the bounds of regular sexploitation films, and she retained her artistic integrity throughout her career. This DVD also includes various, highly entertaining trailers from other Wishman films and a couple of early nudie cuties!

Distributor Notes: Creepy Zeb finds the love of his life when he looks in a trash can and sees...a plastic doll. Ah, but when Zeb caresses that doll, he magically feels the warm tender flesh of a pretty blonde secretary named Ann, who can't understand why invisible hands are suddenly playing touchy-feely with her! Unable to resist his Indecent Desires, Zeb's sick obsession with the doll -- and his long-distance love affair with Ann's body -- leads her to believe she's going insane. Which is how you'll feel watching this utterly crackpot supernatural sex epic from cult director Doris Wishman, Grande Dame of the Grindhouse, which is easily one of the most bizarre skinflicks ever made! But Doris ain't done with you yet. Also on the double bill is My Brother's Wife, Wishman's ode to love, lust, and marital non-bliss, in which sweet little Mary falls in love with Frankie, the slimeball brother of her dull hubby Bob. But when Frankie suggests Mary get money so they can run away together, he neglects to mention his other girlfriend, the marvelously sleazy Zena. Yes, here are two films in a parallel universe full of lingerie-clad lovelies speaking surreal off-camera dialogue where inanimate objects take on baffling significance, and the photography is often dazzlingly out of control -- such as the magic moment when actress Darlene Bennett strolls over to the camera and actually sits on the lens! But beware: One dose of Doris and you'll forever be changed.
