Venus in Furs (Italian: Venere in pelliccia ) (also known as Devil in the Flesh) is a 1969 Italian erotic drama film directed by Massimo Dallamano. Based on the novel Venus in Furs by Leopold von Sacher-Masoch, the film was first released in 1969 in Germany under the title Venuz im pelz.[1] In Italy the film did not pass the censorship examination because of the sex scenes deemed too rough and all attempts to overcome the censorship's remarks, with various cut versions, were unsuccessful.[1] The film was eventually released in 1973 under the title Venere nuda but even this cut version was confiscated after a few days for contempt of decency.[1][2] In 1975 the film was finally released in Italian cinemas under the title Le malizie di Venere, in a heavily censored version which was altered by a new editing and by the introduction of new scenes filmed by Paolo Heusch, which turned the film plot into a giallo.[1] The new title was a specific reference to the Laura Antonelli's box office success of two years before Malizia.[1]

Synopsis

Based on the infamous novel by Leopold Sacher-Masoch the film follows the perverted passions of a young couple as Severin watches the beautiful Wanda writhing naked amongst furs. His disturbing peeping tomism triggers off a whirlpool of emotions due to a childhood episode which punishes voyeurism with pain.
