The biggest stars, best directors, and highest production values; that is a QUALITY X film. These deluxe Blu-ray editions of some of the genre's masterpieces, along with plenty of hidden gems, offer beautiful restorations and plentiful bonus features, all presented in homage to its namesake of esteemed New York film distributor, Mature Pictures, the company which almost single handedly raised the bar for outstanding sex films, and whose films will be included in this fittingly elegant collection.

Ever since they were children Angela and her brother Peter have been as close as siblings could be. But when their relationship crosses the line from fraternal love to unnatural lust, Peter withdraws to become a priest, attempting to sever all contact with his sister. Hopelessly devoted to her brother and devastated by this abandonment, Angela soon experiences the physical manifestations of his guilt, as Peter sends her to work as a maid for a sadistic couple. Soon, Angela is thrust from one horrifying experience to the next; her body affecting an almost otherworldly draw from men whose only goal is to abuse and humiliate her. All the while they repeatedly cross paths with the mysterious “fireworks man,” an almost devilish presence who may be manipulating the lives of both Peter and Angela. The second feature directed by groundbreaking filmmaker Wes Craven (Last House on the Left, A Nightmare on Elm Street), THE FIREWORKS WOMAN (aka The Fireworks Man) ranks as his most structurally experimental effort as well as his most controversial. Craven's sole foray into hardcore is both brimming with dark religious commentary as well as venerating essential works of underground erotic literature. Quality X is thrilled to present The Fireworks Woman fully uncut for the first time on video and newly restored in 4K from its best surviving film elements, along with extensive interviews which lend both historical and first-hand value to this mysterious and long obscure production.
