nice classic
"I prefer classic skin flicks like these over modern ones. Better stories and can play as a nice background feature."

One of the oddest mixes of drive-in craziness and explicit sex, RAGING BULL co-writer Peter Savage's X rated adaptation of THE THREE FACES OF EVE finally comes to home video fully uncut with all the mind-boggling plot twists and X rated action fully intact!
Young Sylvia is a good, pure Christian, but her friends and family are noticing strange things happening to her. Sylvia is experiencing sudden transformations from a church going innocent into a sex-obsessed vixen, violently seducing every man (and woman) in sight!

Reviews
Sin in the Suburbs!
"Suburban ennui is given a sexy spin in this enjoyable late '70's feature, directed by Pete Savage (an interesting figure, who hovered around Scorsese's orbit during this period, appearing in some of the NY auteur's films). Basically, a smutty take on Three Faces of Eve, this boasts some really nice photography and evidently has a certain artistry may surprise you! The transfer if impeccable, as usual, from Vinegar Syndrome. Snap this one up, before it sells out!"
Big Red
"This is a wild movie. It's kind of like an adult version of The Three Faces of Eve. It took for forever to get around to it, but the lead actress with the glasses is actually a sexual dynamo. What an absolute freak in the sheets."
Editing Matters
"Interesting having 2 complete versions of the feature on this release; cannot argue with the picture quality made possible with the improved bitrate."
aka Sylvia. Sonny Landham appears
"aka Sylvia. Sonny Landham appears in this one too. Good hardcore release from VS."
Not Bad, Not Great
"Pretty run-of-the-mill Horror themed vintage Erotica. Not the best, but still recommended"
Odd and supernatural adult film
"This release by director Peter Savage, who starred and co-wrote the film classic Raging Bull, shows a erotic and supernatural side to the adult film genre of the late 70s. This weirdly bizarre film shows an almost supernatural corruption and those who are hoping to stop it. They definitely don't make adult films like this anymore."
Adult version of a classic
"The 3 faces of Eve as an adult drive-in or grindhouse entertainment. As a bonus you can watch the R rated version, Great job VS as usual. The transfer looks great. Grab it while you can, in case it never makes it to BD."
Thumbs up
"Solid looking DVD transfer; if there's a Blu one day I'm in."
