It's a Sick, Sick, Sick World

About This Movie

It's a Sick, Sick, Sick World is this bizarre faux-mondo flick from '65 that pulls you into its chaotic realm of sex, drugs, and violence. The atmosphere is gritty, with that almost hypnotic narration by Joel Holt that adds a strange charm to the madness unfolding on screen. The pacing? Well, it’s erratic, like a fever dream, which somehow fits the subject matter perfectly. You can sense the era's unfiltered attitude towards taboo topics, and it’s raw. Practical effects, though low-budget, have a certain authenticity that adds to the film's rugged appeal. It's not polished, but that’s part of its character, making it a distinctive piece of exploitation cinema for collectors.

This film has seen various releases, but finding a good quality print can be a challenge. The scarcity of physical copies makes it a noteworthy find for collectors who appreciate the more obscure corners of exploitation cinema. Its unrefined charm and the cultural snapshot it offers of the '60s make it a conversation starter among aficionados. The lack of a known director adds to its mystique, further enticing those who seek out the unconventional.
