Tetrady not as good as all the hype

GetPapa Far from Perfect, Far from Terrible

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

mjevans-2 I saw this movie on VHS shortly after its release as a confused and easily aroused young teenage boy, and I was immediately turned on by the mindless sense of free love and intimacy that this film has throughout its entirety. Sadly very few films like Lake Consequence get made any more, due to the overkill of censorship "experts" and the influence of both family value and religious fundamentalist groups in government policies. I look back on it from time to time as the very first time that I realized how erotic and arousing it is for a man (and indeed all straight men) to watch two women kissing and making love in such an innocent way. The scene in the Chinese Bath House is by far one of the most erotic 2 women/1 man threesomes that I have ever scene in a Hollywood film. When Billy leaves May and Joan together, they kiss passionately and then briefly you see their breasts/nipples pressed together as they are beautifully locked in a lesbian embrace. What would have made this movie perfect would have been another sex scene where Billy was not involved at all, as its been proved that more than 40% of all male sexual fantasies don't involve any men at all :-). I recommend this film to just about any man who is in need of some visual comfort whether he be in a relationship with a woman or not.

nufc-1 .....Well i'm a fan of Zalman King and he didn't disappoint me with 'Lake Consequence', I loved it, the gorgeous brooding Billy Zane and the beautiful Joan Severence, great erotic scenes to brilliant music. I think Zalman King is a genius, he knows how to tune into peoples fantasies, men and women, he always casts beautiful people (Billy Wirth and Sherilyn Fenn to name but a few) and there's so much nervous tension throughout the film it's great! I have 2 soundtracks from his movies and they're fantastic too, I can't believe the rating for this is so low...if you like 'Red Shoe Diaries', 'Two Moon Junction' and of course '9 1/2weeks' then i'm sure you'll love this!

nicholls A 30-something housewife gets a crush on this manual worker who is living in a caravan close to her house. She feels sexually unsettled despite possessing a pleasant home, a charming little son and a loving husband - who are, as it happens, just off on a fishing trip for a few days. She is so besotted by her initial contact with the worker that she enters his caravan in his absence and sentimentally strokes some of his books. Then, a shock - suddenly the vehicle is driven off with her inside.Quite a good start, you might think. But it soon deteriorates into the soft porn, witless directionless movie matched by a few thousand others. The caravan stops beside a picturesque lake and a superbly-built naked blonde bather enters the scene. She soon persuades the non-swimming housewife to not only enter the water, but submit to being ferried on her back by said blonde to a large swimming-raft. As you may imagine this is the start of some lesbian goings-on.The manual worker of course returns complete with rippling muscles and completes the sexual triangle which somehow finds itself later immersed in a stormy jacuzzi in the middle of Chinese New Year junketings. Our mild housewife, after being caressed under water by Mr. Muscles, gets a bit put out when she sees him paying similar attention to the blonde, takes one of the burning candles which bestrew all porny films at erotic moments and, via a handy diaphanous curtain, sulkily sets the whole place on fire.As if that were not proof enough of brain-damage in the direction department, the script (?) takes another, even less likely twist when Mr. Muscles not only drives the obviously bonkers, still-naked woman to her home (hubby and little boy having fortunately not yet returned from the fishing), accompanies her indoors, lectures her on her wifely responsibilities, finds her a dress and clothes her, disappearing before hubby and son return to enjoy a rapturous reunion.A sadly flawed irresponsible film despite the best efforts and good looks of the women. A jarring note was the frequent loud crashes in my speakers accompanied by split-second images apparently inserted by the director to keep the audience awake.This nonsense barely deserves the four rating it has been given.

star-30 After writing "9 and a half weeks" Zalman King begin to make well-lit soft sex movies. He and his partner Rafael Eisenman their best TV-movie's "Lake Consequence". An erotic drama with real screenplay (!) and talented, beauty stars like Joan Severance and Billy Zane. Some word that you'll might never forget: "You got many fish, darling?"
