Passion Fever poster

Released in 1969, Passion Fever is a drama film directed by Doris Wishman, running about 70 minutes.

What it’s about. This and The Hot Month of August, both made in Greece, were acquired by DORIS WISHMAN for release in the United States. However, she somehow or other lost the dialogue sheets needed for dubbing the films into English. With the original dialogue a mystery, and not understanding Greek in the first place, the Grand Dame of Sexploitation simply re-invented the entire plot blissfully dubbing it away without any clue as to what was really being said, and then adding some steamy sex scenes with her own anonymous adulterers to liven things up.

Who’s in it. Passion Fever stars Panos Kateris as Yarkos, Theano Ioannidou, Katerina Helmy and Kostas Darras, among others.

How it landed. With an audience score of 4.3/10, Passion Fever has proved divisive with audiences.
