Lock your doors, close the blinds, and prepare to sin—Mondo Keyhole is the filthiest sermon ever shouted from a Hollywood backlot. Jack Hill’s outrageous debut is a sticky cocktail of sex, drugs, rape, and revenge, all wrapped in sweaty sheets of sleaze and psychoanalysis. Co-directed with John Lamb, this film doesn’t ask for forgiveness—it grins and kicks you down the rabbit hole.
Howard Thorne, our sick, twisted antihero, isn’t just a creep—he’s a whole damn psych ward. A walking libido with a God complex, his conquests are his confessions, and his wife Vicky is his forgotten penance. She’s strung out, strung along, and just waiting to burn the whole house down—and when she does? Oh, baby, it’s holy fire.
Don’t let the booby shots and acid-trip montages fool you—Mondo Keyhole knows what it’s doing. This isn’t softcore fluff—it’s exploitation with teeth. Behind every bare breast is a middle finger to moral America. It’s trash, sure—but it’s righteous trash. And when the women finally rise up, it’s more satisfying than ten studio revenge flicks combined.
This one isn’t for the faint of heart. But if you’ve got the guts—and the gutter mind—Mondo Keyhole just might baptize you in its unholy gospel.
