Trivia
Angel Tompkins was offered percentage points on the profits for this film, but turned it down in favor of payment up front.

Goofs
The lunch time pool scene at Sean's place. The shadows constantly change as the scene continues. The start has radiant sunlight showering Diane and Sean. As the camera cuts to a different angle, they are covered in shade. Move back to the original angle, all sun again. Continues for a while until the end of the scene. The same can be noticed on the water of the pool. First shot shows it bathed in sun. As Bonnie gets out of the pool, it is mostly shade.

Quotes
Diane Marshall: [Angel Tompkins' sexy teacher character: Diane invites reluctant student/virgin , Sean; played by Jay North into her house] Well, come on in a minute... I'm not gonna rape you.

horny teacher seduces student

Oh brother, was this movie cheesy! The soundtrack was especially bad. This is the story of a young high school teacher, Diane, who seduces her neighbor, Sean (Jay North of Denise the menace fame). What's funny is that Sean's mom suspects the two are getting it on and kind of likes the idea while the unreasonable dad doesn't. There are sex scenes and the teacher really is pretty hot but the way those scenes are shot don't even work well which will immediately turn off the viewer who watched this for the erotic scenes. Part of the story involves a friend of Seans' falling to his death. Sean gets blamed for the accident by his friends psychotic brother who happens to have a crush on Diane. This sets up for the inevitable meeting of the three at the end. The acting felt very much like watching an industrial film. I recommend staying away from this one.
