Norwegian starlet Julie Ege on the cover of Stars System (issue #9 - January 1977). Apart from appearing as the Scandinavian Bond Girl in On her Majesty's Secret Service (1969), the former Miss Norway, Miss Universe and Penhouse pet was a regular feature in early 1970s UK horrors such as Creatures the World Forgot (1971), The Legend of the 7 Golden Vampires (1973), Craze (1973), The Final Programme (1973) and The Mutations (1973).
Sex Stars System was a French film magazine dedicated to the nude and erotic aspects of generally non-mainstream cinema. 18 monthly issues were released between 1975 and 1976 (the scheduled release of issue #19 is unconfirmed). In December 1976, the magazine's name was changed to Stars System, starting with a new enumeration. On the editorial board one finds Jean-Pierre Bouyxou, film critic, filmmaker, actor, writer and editor in chief (for 30 issues between 1978 and 1986) of the vintage erotica magazine, Fascination. Bouyxou also wrote, amongst others, for the French issues of Vampirella (the French issues focused on genre films between the regular comics) and Ciné-Girl which is similar in style to Sex Stars System. As a writer/actor Bouyxou also worked with Alain Payet, Jesus Franco and Jean Rollin. The style and mood of Rollin's 1979 film, Fascination was influenced by Bouyxou's erotica magazine of the same name.
