Pipolo, an Italian writer, contributed to the cult film landscape with his work in Eighteen in the Sun (1962) and Dr. Jekyll Likes Them Hot (1979). His scripts often blend humor and eroticism, reflecting the playful yet provocative nature of the genres he engaged with. In Eighteen in the Sun, Pipolo captures the essence of youthful exuberance, while in Dr. Jekyll Likes Them Hot, he explores the duality of human nature through a comedic lens. His distinctive voice adds a unique flavor to the films featured on SassyFlix.
Dr. Jekyll Likes Them Hot
A lusty young woman decides to use her sexual powers to “tame” the evil and murderous Dr. Jekyll. Actress Edwige Fenech and the Italians made A LOT of screwball sex comedies in the 70’s. Generally though, they were more successful(internationally, at least) at bedroom farce-type stuff as opposed to parodies like this. To be fair though, the English-language version of this is saddled with bad dubbing, horrid music (which may or may not have been in the Italian-language version), and an inappropriate English-title, “Dr.Jeckyl Likes ’em Hot”, which suggests a much more sex-saturated movie. Still, as European horror movie parodies go this is not as good as Lucio Fulci’s “Young Dracula”, it’s about the same as Armando Crispino’s “Frankenstein All”Italia”, but it’s significantly better than “Dracula Blows his Cool”.
