House of 1000 Pleasures

House of 1000 Pleasures (Italian: Finalmente... le mille e una notte) is an Italian erotic comedy directed by Antonio Margheriti, who also co-wrote the script with Dino Verde and Luigi Russo. A product of the commedia sexy all'italiana wave, the picture takes its cue from the Arabian Nights and was shot in Italian, running roughly 92 minutes. In some territories it reached audiences under the alternate titles Bed of a Thousand Pleasures and 1001 Nights of Pleasure. The leading roles went to popular performers of the era such as Barbara Bouchet and Femi Benussi, with character actors Gastone Pescucci and Ignazio Leone among the supporting players. For Margheriti, a director chiefly associated with horror and adventure fare, the film stands as a playful excursion into risqué comedy, mixing bawdy humor with the genre's customary lighthearted tone.
