Based on the true story of the notorious Marquis de Sade. In 18th century Paris, an innocent beauty's search for her missing sister leads her into the deadly sensuous realm of the infamous Marquis de Sade. Imprisoned for his sordid crimes, the Marquis likewise has the beauty morally trapped... for she must help him complete his banned book of lust, or never learn the fate of her sister. It becomes a test of wills and wit, as the Marquis attempts to convert her to his deviously sexual philosophy. When the Marquis escapes his prison, she must follow him to his remote chateau of sin to finally discover her sister's fate, and to face her own.

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Diagonaldi Very well executed
AniInterview Sorry, this movie sucks
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
sgcim This movie presented De Sade as a heck of a good guy. Hell, I feel like giving him a ring and asking him over for beer and chips. He had a great sense of humor, was a committed artist, hated censorship, and even saved a woman's life while risking his own, by blowing away a few guys with a gun! Although this runs counter to everything I've ever read or heard about him, you'll have a great time watching the Marquis torture and humiliate a few great looking women (who eventually fall in love with him, of course,)crack a bunch of great jokes, and be just an all-around great guy as he makes his mark in history in the France of that time period.
skyhowl This is 1 of the funniest movies i have ever seen! Ilike period movies particularly erotic periods pieces set in old world France.So i was thrilled to get a chance to see marquise de sade on cable late 1 night. I thought it might be a serious very dark look into the marquise world.Instead i was treated to a funny almost "feel good" movie.It was was playful filled with lots of eye candy, and perfectly cast.Janet gun has that unique combination of sex appeal and warmth, which is probably why she's 1 of my favorite actresses.What is wrong with Hollywood?This woman should be a big star but instead she relegated to roles in b movies.Nick Mancuso is pretty much in the same boat,he always delivers.Man did he deliver on this...his portrayal of the the marquise was so outrageous it was almost over the top...i laughed until i was sick..every other line in this one was a howler! This movie actually made the depraved aristocrat a likable guy! Yes it was low budget(real low) but it was worth every one of it's 90 minutes.Great movie...really fun!
NewCartesian This movie is not very bad tjough. But one cannot find anything new about the personality of Marquis de Sade from this movie. The movie tries to stay on the borderline between erotic and insightful and it cannot succeed at either. The cinematography is really bad (straigh-to video quality)
hellraiser40 quoted as an erotic drama, i found this actually a funny film. i don't doubt it has some sort of unraveling about this famous character in history, but Nick Mancuso acts in such a way that you just can't stop to gniffle and smile. sorry to say to the people who think this is acted seriously, but he reminded me of a 18th century Al Bundy!!!but therefore this film is guaranteed to have you hooked for it's time.
