The Lickerish Quartet (1970)

Directed by Radley Metzger

Drama

Overview

A jaded, wealthy couple watch a blue movie in their castle home along with her adult son. The son is testy, so they go into town and watch a circus-like thrill ride. The daredevil woman in the show looks exactly like one of the women in the movie, so the man invites her to join them for a nightcap. Tensions among the family seem to rise. She stays overnight, and during her 24 hours in the castle, each of its three residents involves her in a fantasy. She, in turn, keeps asking, “Who has the gun?” Will there be violence before it’s over?

Viewing Notes

My late night viewing consisted of Radley Metzger’s sensual fantasy romp The Lickerish Quartet (1970). Been wanting to see after recently viewing the trailer. The visuals really caught my eye and the film lives up to providing an interesting story about an eccentric couple that invites a gorgeous woman into their home for a variety of sexual escapades.
