      Audience Member A loose plot facilitates some steamy sessions in the first part of the film, although the storyline has to take over towards the end for a conclusion. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member Aptly named neo noir (although with some role reversal) has a professional con man seducing the unhappy wife of a wealthy industrialist. Crown International never disappoints in delivering the more seedy aspects of the genre and this is no exception; here with a decent derivative of BODY HEAT. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/24/23 Full Review Audience Member This could have been so much better if they trimmed 20 minutes of nothing from it. Not a horrible watch but just very generic and just doesn't make alot of sense that our two main characters are american yet the film is set in new zealand. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member A torrid film that would be an early entrant in the erotic thriller genre. A bored rich housewife succumbs to the advances of an American conman she meets in the park until he kills her husband and leaves her to cover up the mess. Not Scotland Yard's best work as they seem to have quite a bit of circumstantial evidence but pass on making an arrest.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member This is actually a pretty good film. Another movie t5he last of 8 I have review from the After Dark Thrillers. This was put out by Crown International Pictures. And out of this 8 film collection I would say this one is the best. We have a love affair between a thief, and the wife of a rich man. She starts an affair with the thief and before you know they are both in love. And while he is robbing her house with her husband home and a sleep he must have sex with her one last time. Only to be discovered by the husband, a fight breaks out and yep you guessed it the husband is dead. So have the pair covered up the clues. Will a British Inspector find out the truth? Watch to see the results. All in all a good film. 3 1/2 stars. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
