The Lustful Turk
Two Englishwomen, Emily Barlow and her servant Eliza Gibbs, are abducted by an Algerian pirate while en route to India and made a gift to the Bey of Algiers. Ali, the Bey, treats the women sadistically, beating and raping them. Eliza is lent to Ali's brutal friend, Muzra, but he returns her when she stabs him. Sylvia, sister of Emily's fiancé, while on a visit to southern France, is kidnaped by Turks and given to Ali. After a month, all three women have fallen in love with the lustful pirate, but Zella, one of Ali's former concubines, castrates him and he frees the Englishwomen, realizing he can no longer provide them with pleasure.
