Unholy Matrimony
(1966 - B&W)
by Tuna
Unholy Matrimony (1966) is an East Coast exploitation film from a
studio that seemingly only produced two films.
A magazine editor is beaten because he is looking into a scam
involving swingers' magazines and blackmail. Rather than scaring him
off, the assault just pisses him off, but he has the good sense to
delegate the assignment so an employee can stick his neck out, along
with the employee's girlfriend.
They have some Polaroids taken and start answering ads. Their first
meeting is a near disaster, when the other man tries to force sex. Our
hero takes a few days off and convinces the girl to continue. The two
of them quickly discover that the couples provide all the material a
blackmailer needs in the process of meeting other couples.
They finally encounter someone who is being blackmailed, and a
detective finds out where the blackmailer is delivering the money.

If you believe early sexploitation has merit, then this one should please
you. The plot and acting are far better than the norm, it is not nearly as mean
spirited as the typical East Coast film, and there is plenty of nudity given the
year.
