    Slut's, Sleaze and Booze, all in the windy city

    John Alderman stars as Steve Desmond, the gad about town who has a series of mobsters on his back.

    As with any production that has Dave Friedman involved there is a huge amount of T and A and even Gherkin sex!(now I havent seen that one before)

    A heady mix of roughie explotation and a nudie, all in the mix with a Bonnie and Clyde inspired duo (Steve and Nancy) that forge a bond in filth and shared resentment for "Fats" the guy that has paid to have Steve and Nancy killed.

    Highly enjoyable, from an age when smut was good and healthy
