About For the Love of Pleasure
A woman wakes up to catch Simon robbing her bedroom. She points a gun at him and forces him to have sex with her. When her husband returns home, Simon can't help himself from climaxing so she shoots Simon to death. Simon wakes up in the afterlife, where Shiva promises him an endless supply of food and sexual encounters. The afterlife will be one of non-stop pleasures.
Directed by Edwin Brown, For the Love of Pleasure leans on a strong ensemble — Jamie Gillis, Annette Haven, Monique Cardin — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1979.
