In the Sign of the Gemini ¡ Tvillengernes Tegn

After trying for a few days to add a new review, I sort of gave up, the Blogger posting service was unavailable for some time. Now that the issue is solved I can happily announce the review for In the Sign of the Gemini, part II on the six film saga of vintage Danish exploitation.

As you already know, most of these saga movies only share a few things in common, such as som actors and a couple of stories (Agent Jensen 69 In the Sign of the Scorpio & Agent Jensen 69 In the Sign of the Sagittarius) are connected but, the thing they all share is real sex, hardcore sex, porn.

Part II was released in 1975, and just like four of the six films in the saga, it was also written and directed by Werner Hedman, the man who gave this series the necessary elements to make the perfect blending work. 

Unfortunately this film is no longer available on DVD (unless if you look for it on a used stuff store) but, that's why the huge movie freaks internet community becomes so important keeping the legacy for the connoisseurs and the newcomers.

Running a Record company was never so easy.

The singer everyone wants to have signed on their music companies.


The plot for In The Sign of the Gemini ,as you might be guesing by now, it's quite simple and follows the exploits of two record executives and the singer they both want in their respective firm. These two executives are complete opposites.

This scene unveils the plot.
Here you find the key moments in the storyline.
You already know haha.
Anthon Master is a player who is always surrounded by ladies, while Ulrik Ulvenstein is a crotchety old man. Dolores Rossi is the singer they both feverishly try to woo into their respective record companies. Dolores, despite being blonde,  is not as dumb as she appears as she plays her two suitors like a fiddle. The plot really gets cooking when Ulrik Ulvenstein hires men to kidnap Anthon Master. His plan would have been fool proof if it wasn’t for Anthon having a twin brother who steps in and assumes his identity. Visually some stands out moments include one of the kidnappers in drag leering at naked women at a health spa exorcising and a scene with semi nude ball room dancing. Once again all the hardcore scenes are well done.

Nice singing!
In the Sign of the Gemini has some very good acting, in fact the whole cast does a pretty good job. The most surprising performance comes from Ole Søltoft playing the twins Anthon Master and Benny Master. Some of the familiar faces in the cast include Anne Bie Warburg, Lisbeth Olsen and Poul Bundgaard. Another performance of note is Cia Löwgren in the role of Dolores Rossi, the object which two men desire.

And, to close today's entry as I typed above the movie freak internet community does a good job on continuing films legacy so, I give you In the Sign of the Gemini online right here in my humble place:


See you!
