The Curious Dr. Humpp
This is a black and white (film, not interracial) movie from the late 60’s about a scientist who’s working on a youth elixir by sucking the “life force” from people having sex. I’m guessing for the time this was rolled out, there was a serious interest in this movie since it has 10 times more nudity than today’s films. It was originally filmed in Argentina, but then had random scenes shot in the US thrown in, but it still flows pretty well and you can’t tell. The scientist also makes these hilarious creatures with Frankenstein heads and blinking lights in their foreheads to capture men and women having sex. Remind me to ask my ultra-christian parents if it’s true that spontaneous sex parties happened daily in the 60’s. The Frankenstein people bring the captives back to the scientist’s hidden castle and when they’re finished having sex with each other, the scientist has them killed. The scientist talks to this disembodied brain in a jar that’s grouchy, so I’m not sure whose idea it was to whip up the youth elixir. As today’s movies go, it’s pretty lame, but like I said, I’m guessing if you asked your parents (or grandparents) about it, they’ll break a sweat.
