To Hex with Sex

About This Movie

To Hex with Sex is this oddball 1969 comedy that really leans into its absurdity. Marvin Swift, the quintessential loser, finds himself in this bizarre yet intriguing journey after getting fired and having a spat with his fiancée. The pacing is quirky, oscillating between slapstick and surreal moments, especially when Marvin meets the devil in a boiler room – it’s just as ridiculous as it sounds. The performances have a certain charm; you can’t help but feel for Marvin as he navigates his hapless existence. Despite its low-budget roots, some practical effects manage to stand out, adding to the film's offbeat vibe, making it a curious watch for those who appreciate the eccentric side of cinema.

This film has had a bit of a mixed history when it comes to releases, with some DVD versions floating around, but the original prints are quite scarce. Collector interest is slowly growing, mainly due to the film's quirky nature and its offbeat humor, which isn’t something you see every day. It’s the kind of oddity that might appeal to those who enjoy exploring the less mainstream corners of 60s cinema.
