Lake Consequence

Lake Consequence is very typical of Zalman King. It's sexy and erotic with fantastic shoots and a soft, sexy, romantic soft-sex scenes that lead your imagination exactly where it's supposed to be. Billy Zane, while not David Duchovny, is beautiful. Joan Severence is beautiful...what more could you need. It's got a decent story-line and it's well acted, not stiff and choppy, not 'acted'. If you've seen Wild Orchid, or 9 1/2 Weeks, you have to see this. The cinematography is wonderful, the scenery perfect for the story and the music blends in as if it were meant to be there. Nothing canned, nothing corny, just steamy and wonderful.

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.

.....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!

Lake Consequence is one of those movies that I'm embarrassed by myself for liking. The plot, (repressed, bored housewife has an affair with a sultry tree-trimming guy and some hot chick,) is contrived, but. . .well, there's no other way to put this. The sex scenes make this pic work. *Seriously* steamy. Billy Zane is intensely doable, if you know what I mean. For maximum viewing (and panting) pleasure, be sure to see the unrated version.

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?"
