After the Sultan (John Leslie) defeats his cheating wife, the Sultana, along with his traitorous General, the Sultan no longer trusts women and orders they be put to death after spending the night with him. This all changes when he meets Scheherezade (Annette Haven), who's sensual stories know no bounds. Can she use her storytelling skills to delay her looming execution, while also winning the affection of the Sultan?
An explicit adaptation of the classic middle eastern story Scheherezade, Stephen Lucas' (China Girl) A THOUSAND AND ONE EROTIC NIGHTS is a critically acclaimed and elegantly produced classic of erotic cinema and co-stars Lisa De Leeuw, Mai Lin, Joey Silvera, Herschell Savage and others.
In its sequel, A THOUSAND AND ONE EROTIC NIGHTS PART 2: THE FORBIDDEN TALES, the Sultan (Francois Papillon) is bored and lonely. In an effort to spice things up, his advisor and confidant (Jamie Gillis) creates a contest to find the most titillating women in the Kingdom, and a new consort to the Sultan as well. A woman named Scheherezade (Kari Foxx) enters the contest, and may have a unique talent none of the of the other women possess…
Both of these sensual classics are making their Blu-ray debuts from Vinegar Syndrome, newly restored from their 35mm negatives.

"An outstanding couple of films. One of Melusine's best."
"Really great presentation here. The film looks so good in this transfer. Some super hot scenes and a fun motif."
"I mostly enjoyed this one. It has a good cast, but none of the sex scenes really stood out to me. It was a fantastic transfer though!"
"Who doesn't love an arabian themed adult film? This is a pretty cool release, and it's bad ass that it's a double feature. Thanks for putting it out, VS."
"Good one"
"Fun film!"
"These Annette Haven films are some of the more actually erotic of the period. Look fantastic in this edition."
"Good movie & great cover art on slipcover"
