BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See

Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

DigitalRevenantX7 Los Angeles detective Kate McBain arrives in southern California after a scandal in which she slept with a suspect during an investigation. Paired up with macho detective Keith Rackles, Kate investigates the case of the death of a wealthy female stockbroker who was found in her hotel's pool after falling from her balcony. Cross-checking details with other deaths, Kate uncovers evidence that all the murders were identical, making this the work of a serial killer. It is also discovered that the victims were moonlighting as high-priced call girls. Infiltrating the brothel, Kate is introduced to the only client to sleep with all the victims – Rutherford "Blue" Dresden, a real charmer known for the overwhelming way he treats the girls. As Kate begins to fall in love with Blue, she begins to suspect that A – he could be the killer since his mother was also found dead in a similar fashion or B – he is being set up by the fiancée of one of the murdered girls – none other than Detective Keith Rackles.This made for cable television erotic thriller is actually a knockoff of the classic thriller Basic Instinct, only with the gender roles of the two leads reversed. The film was directed by Robert Angelo, a director who specialised in this sort of film & was produced by star Shannon Tweed, herself known as the queen of softcore erotica around this time.Dead Sexy is an average thriller that has some reasonable love scenes thrown in to market itself to the softcore audience that view this kind of thing or even late shift workers. Most softcore erotica tend to regard plot as the space between unclothed romps, but Dead Sexy manages to make the thriller aspect of the story work to a limited degree. Most of the love scenes are passable enough but the story's thriller element comes out stronger when seen on its own. The final twist ending is a real eye-opener when it comes. As for the acting, Shannon Tweed is excellent as the female detective on the case while John Enos seems a bit miscast in his role as the 'psycho' suspect of the piece.

tenleygirl First off, I want to say that if you're renting this just for the sex scenes, don't, they're not very good. However, this movie did work for me as a thriller. I think that Shannon Tweed is a good actress and it's a shame that she can't get more mainstream movies.Shannon plays a cop investigating a string of call girl murders. All of the women were killed similarly to the way the prime suspect's mother died and all were wearing a particular shade of red lipstick. Oh and by the way that shade of red lipstick was also the mother's shade of lipstick (the lipstick is made by a small company owned by the suspect's family and he recently inherited it). Additionally, the women, including Tweed's character all look like the suspects mother and though he was only 13 at the time his mother died, he was a suspect in her death (it was ruled a suicide). It seems that the prime suspect was molested by his mother for years before her death.Added to the mix is the fact that Tweed's partner has a vendetta against the prime suspect (he was engaged to the first call girl who died and did not submit an interview with the prime suspect to his bosses). The true murderer is not revealed until the very last scene.

mfisher452 Let's face it, Shannon Tweed is not a great (or even necessarily a good) actress. The title says it all: It's another example of Tweed's stock in trade: The grade-C erotic thriller in which she packs a piece---always a big phallic firearm---and then gets the hots for another kind of piece, and eventually takes her clothes off. Everything else is just an attention-getting device to keep you watching between the sex scenes. Even if you cheerfully accept these limitations, this turkey is a cynical cheat on the viewer. Tweed was 43 when she made this movie, and like Renee Russo, she has a fabulous body for her age, but it is still a fabulous 43-year-old body. So if you're an over-40 former Playmate who insists on making movies with nude sex scenes, either be honest, like Helen Mirren, and do them yourself or quit the business. Don't use a body double, which she so blatantly does in this flick. If the number of porn sites on the Web featuring over-35 "hotties" is any indication, there's a market for films with middle-aged women who get naked.The bad guy, John Enos, has one of the least photogenic screen personas I've ever seen. He elicits no cinematic interest whatsoever and he and Tweed have essentially no on-screen chemistry. They are just going through the motions. Why anyone would think the Tweed character would develop an itchy-koo for him is beyond me, except that Enos, although not really that similar in features to Tweed's squeeze Gene Simmons, somewhat resembles him in physique and complexion. Maybe that's why Tweed chose Enos. Whether he resembles Simmons in other ways is something I have no idea about. (Let's not even get into Gene Simmons's public persona and what it says about Tweed's taste in men that she has been with him for years.) And it's somehow oddly appropriate, considering this movie, that in the IMDb photo galleries, Enos is seen accompanied by Traci Lords.This flick is strictly desperation time.

zoltar55 For me to write a bad revue of a Shannon Tweed's movie,has to be very bad.I've been following Shannon's movie progress since the first one she made wich I own.In this movie wich she is the star was a blow for me because when you see Shannon's name it means nudity and sexy scenes,but in this one she does not carry the movie as the star.Every girl that appear in this so call movie is naked,except Shannon Tweed the Star.Why did she follow that route after establishing her name in those so call erotic thriller is beyond me.I love Shannon's work most of the time.She is not a great actress but she is a good one.When I bought this movie, since Shannon Tweed was the star I was expecting the same kind of good work like she did before.Not this time,not even close.Lots of shots of her face and legs,one sex scene and she use a body double.I'm Canadian like she is.I really hope she won't finish a good stack of work on this note.When I bought Shannon's movie I knew I would get beauty ,sensuality and good acting.It is sad for me to distrust an actress that I use to love and trust in her work.So so sad to end that way.
