Masseuse 3

"Masseuse 3" is jam-packed with heavy-breathing sex scenes. Unfortunately, only one of those scenes is original. And it doesn't occur until "Masseuse 3" is about to end. It's between the leads, Landon Hall's Sheila and John Michael Vaughn's Det. Jack Gage. They're terrific together. Sexy as sexy should be. Very good. Very believable in the "Hot! Hot! Hot!" department. (The moans of pleasure emerging from both actors' performances -- especially Vaughn's -- don't seem false.)

However, the rest of this erotic thriller's -- obviously as cheap as a low-budget, direct-to-video flick can get -- is comprised of scenes clipped from an obscure 1994 release. I'm familiar with Ms. Hall's work -- and she once again impresses. Mr. Vaughn, though, seems rather new to the genre -- and he is a welcomed addition, a fresh talent.

If you're going to watch "Masseuse 3," my recommendation is to fast-forward to about an hour and twenty-two minutes. (Very helpful if your VCR can be programmed to do so.) Just in time to see Hall and Vaughn impress. The rest, most certainly, does not.

Masseuse 3 (1998) (V) is a re-vamped version of the 1995 movie Virtual Desire, only this time the actual love scenes are not on the cutting room floor as they were in Virtual Desire.

Masseuse 3 turns out to be a detective yarn at first, then goes into the main character, Sheila Raines, played by the beautiful Landon Hall.

The best sex scene in the movie is undoubtedly the one between the dead detective (he videotapes all his love sessions) and a woman named Tonya.

We first see Tonya in a sheer white off the shoulder dress with no bra! Then the sex scene happens later in the movie. In Virtual Desire, this sex scene was cut out and a helicopter flying over the ocean with the woman's love sounds echoing in the background and the detective and Tonya typing away on their computers was all this pervert saw.

I give this movie three out of five stars for Annette Burger's (Tonya) scene alone made this movie.

The acting in this is horrible, absolutely no plot line and the sex scenes are ridiculous. Even with all of these flaws everyone should see this at least once. The horribleness of this movie will make you laugh.

This is a fun erotic movie that has little more than some great sex scenes. It has a lot of soft-core stars like Julie Strain and Tammy Parks in this piece of video. The plot involves an assassin trying to kill a brothel owner. Landon Hall stars in this and she is more than able to show her talent in these movies. She is really a pro and knows how to keep it interesting. Another surprise in this is Catherine Weber who has only done a handful of movies. She is a stunning beauty who was incredible in "Body Strokes". I have to give this movie an "8" for the great sex scenes. This movie is also listed as "Indiscretions". As "Indiscretions" it is edited and some of the scenes are missing, but it still packs a wallop.

Not a bad film for a low budget thriller. The acting of Landon Hall and John Michael Vaughn is very believable, they work well together. Richard Chance does a great job bringing the sick character of Mr. Frost to life. He is very twisted yet funny until getting blown away at the end by Sheila Raines. Mr. Frost spends much of his time trying to find a way into Sheila's house to get his hands on the valuable video tapes he has been hired to steal. He finally ends up killing the home security repairman and stepping in as his replacement only to get the security code for his own use. Richard Chance does a great job playing both characters but is really a joy to watch as he not only kidnaps Sheila Raines and Jack Gage at gunpoint but really knows how to punch a woman. There is also a great little fight scene between Jack Gage and Mr. Frost at the end of the film. It never pays to punch a woman but Mr. Frost does it well. I hope to see him in the upcoming Masseuse movies.
