SHIMA DAY AND NIGHT

Once you get her heated up there's no cooling her down.

Danchizuma futari dake no yuru, aka Apartment Wife: Night by Ourselves, premiered in Japan today in 1978, and here you see the promo poster. You know the drill with the Apartment Wife series—sex, bondage, and general perversion reiterated in twenty-one films starring various actresses. This one featured the radiant Izumi Shima, who we last saw in Lady Chatterley in Tokyo grinding on some stiff wood. We mean that literally—she dry fucked a tree. It was hilarious. We’d love to tell you what mischief she gets up to in this movie, but we weren’t able to locate a copy. We’ll keep looking, of course. In the meantime below is a random promo photo.

Bulgarian dissident Giorgi Markov is assassinated in a scene right out of a spy novel. As he’s waiting at a bus stop near Waterloo Bridge in London, he’s jabbed in the calf with an umbrella. The man holding the umbrella apologizes and walks away, but he is in reality a Bulgarian hired killer who has just injected a ricin pellet into Markov, who develops a high fever and dies three days later.
