Eine verhängnisvolle Verbindung

If you've seen "Fatal Attraction" and enjoyed it, here's another version of basically the same story-line. Even though the goings-on are somewhat familiar, credit director Kristine Peterson's stylish direction for putting a few interesting new twists on it. The movie is tight and suspenseful, with some VERY HOT sex scenes thrown into the mix. Lisa Pescia makes a chilling and formidable villain and is definitely an actress to watch in the future. A very well-done "B-Movie," worth checking out.

What a disappointment. Granted that this film belongs to a genre that is not really about very intellectual plots, but even then you do expect at least something out of the whole exercise of sitting through the movie. The actress who plays the "seductress" looks awful. And the sex scenes are amazingly unimaginative.

A 1990 "Fatal Attraction" remake, with a lower budget, less attractive and less skilled actors and poorer writing and directing.

Honestly, there's very little to get excited about in this film. Even the sex scenes are pretty mundane and didn't really reach any great heights. I love a good 90's softcore movie as much - or maybe more - than the next person, but even I could barely get to the end. So much of this film seems to occur in murky darkness.

Hard to believe they made three sequels. I'll give them a go in the hopes that they will be better than the original (not that that's a high bar to clear, or anything) but I won't hold out much hope.

The first 20 minutes of this picture are pure exploitation: soft-core sex scenes, surrounded by unbelievably blah dialogue. , and it feels awfully derivative. However, I have to admit that it's rarely boring and that it ends in a somewhat unconventional way.

Once again, producer Roger Corman rips off a movie made by a major Hollywood studio, this time FATAL ATTRACTION. Though this rip-off claims to have a lot more sexual material than the original. Don't believe it. Surprisingly, there is a lot less sex and nudity in this movie than you would think, and the little sexual material there is is filmed in a way that we don't get to see much juicy stuff. Part of that's due to the movie's curious style, which is to shoot in rooms in near total darkness when anyone in real life would turn a light on! The movie also looks bad from a grainy look to everything that the photography films. Marc Singer gives a real bad performance here - he seems to be trying to imitate Kevin Bacon, specifically a third-rate imitation. The worst thing about the movie may be how every scene feels extremely flat - you won't feel any tension, eroticism, or anything else apart from boredom. The last few minutes of the movie do end things in a way that you probably won't predict, but this is too little too late to save the entire enterprise.
