Zebra Lounge

The upper middle class Wendy Barnet (Brandy Ledford) and Alan Barnet (Cameron Daddo) are married with children and live in the suburbs. Alan is disputing a promotion with his co-worker Neil Bradley (Vincent Corazza) but his relationship with Wendy is boring. They decide to buy a swingers magazine and contact an attractive couple to rekindle their sex life. The couple Louise (Kristy Swanson) and Jack Bauer (Stephen Baldwin) schedule a date with them at the Zebra Lounge and they go to a place where they swap wives. Wendy and Alan feel satisfied with the encounter but Louise and Jack want to meet them again. Soon they find how persistent Jack is.

"Zebra Lounge" is a sexy but lame erotic-thriller. The story is predictable and full of roles. But Kristy Swanson and Brandy Ledford are very sexy and make this film worthwhile watching. My vote is five.

Title (Brazil): "Encontro Secreto" ("Secret encounter")

My wife and I watched this last night. All in all it is a good movie.

You do get to see more flesh than previously mentioned. Brandy Ledford shows off what she has got, but she is the only one. However, she is hot enough to save the movie if that is what you are looking for. You see a lot more than her 3 seconds in Demolition Man ("Oops wrong number" scene)

Yes this is Fatal Attraction for swingers. Stephen Baldwin is about as good as he was in Sliver, if that says anything.

I would never buy this movie, but my wife and I agrees that next time it is on HBO, we will do our best to tape it.

to this film, which is a cable ready movie, so use that as the parameter to judge it.

Kristy Swanson is Stephen Baldwin's wife, they are swingers who come across a personal ad placed by a bored married couple (Cameron Daddo is believable as a bored sales executive).

There are a few artful scenes in the beginning, which slowly degenerate to predictable, but then the couple begin to pursue Daddo and his wife, as well as their children. They pop up at a birthday party, buy them a plasma TV and move in to the vacant house next door.

There is an amusing scene where Baldwin says he and Louise (Kristy Swanson) are committed to the relationship and want it long-term, apparently swingers "going steady" to avoid the possibility of HIV, other complications.

Overall it is entertainment, worth watching for Baldwin as the villain. 5/10.

Caught this on cable last night (part of my self-inflicted double feature with the much-better Cellular), and needless to say, it started off promising but deteriorated far too quickly into spineless, unimaginative drivel, and not enough sex (steamy or otherwise) to justify it. Found myself making a list in my head about what I needed to buy at the supermarket during the sex scenes, in fact, and during the other scenes, where the 2 virgin swingers find themselves relentlessly pursued by the deranged Baldwin brother and his lunatic wife (way to go, Kristy - you sure can pick 'em), I was going over my strategy for a Neopets game in my head.

The movie started off with an interesting plot line. A married couple with children toys with the idea of becoming swingers. The movie follows the awkward steps the couple takes to finally go through with the idea.

The acting was good for a B movie, but the plot became too unreal. Once they meet another couple how do they stop the relationship? What if the new couple won't stop calling them? This and every other lame idea you can come up with begins to happen. If not for the well-shot scenes of Kristy kissing Brandy this movie would be a real clunker.
