Director Doris Wishman had a dream, and after the death of her husband in 1958, she decided to pursue a career in filmmaking, focusing on sexploitation entertainment, hoping to reach an audience with lusty tales of revenge and love. 1971's "Love Toy" is part of her colorful oeuvre, with Wishman doing away with any dramatic interests, charging ahead with a full-on fetish picture that plays to taboo desires. Wishman doesn't have anything more than a to-do list of sexual adventures, trying to transform "Love Toy" into a strange psychological and physical display of bedroom experiences. There's no feature here, just an assortment of kinks handed screen time, tied together with the thinnest of plot, buttoned with a true B- movie ending. Read the rest at Blu-ray.com
