It's "altogether different," alright. Nudie queen Doris Wishman's cut of the 1965 Greek film Pyretos ("Passion") hacked out much of the original film's story line, which mattered little since Wishman had no English translation anyway. (Couldn't Chellee Wilson have helped out her fellow flesh peddler?) What's left of the source feature concerns dissolute playboy Yarkos (Panos Kateris) and his comely conquests, but these scenes are vandalized by Wishman with poorly matched inserts filmed in New York and the usual attempt at synched sound so familiar to her fan base. With Katerina Helmy from 1965's The Red Lanterns and Eleni Anousaki (Diamonds On Her Naked Flesh). Director Stelios Jackson was later responsible for the cross-dressing comedy The Hunk (1968). Released through Jerald Intrator's Jerand Films (Night of the Bloody Apes).
