    only redeeming thing in this movie is co-star Jeannie millar

    This poorly written and even non-sensical movie is only blessed with some very graphic sex scenes. The so-called stars are overshadowed by the spectacularly beautiful and sexy Jeannie Millar. The scenes Ms. Millar are in including the opening dream scene are the main redeeming qualities of the movie. The lighting and photography of the sex scenes are of high quality as a plus. Overall 1 1/2 stars but Ms. Millar 4 stars.

    Simulated or Real?

    Of all the erotic films I've directed I'd have to say that "The Key to Sex" is one of my favorites. I had a gorgeous and talented cast starring; Maria Ford, Scott Carson, Jennie Millar, Monique Parent and Jacqueline Lovell. I got a clever and funny script from Chris Byrne, beautiful photography from Harris Done and a great musical score from Carl Schurtz. Plus I got tremendous producing support from Bill Burke and Eddie Holzman. All of us worked hard to make this an entertaining, funny and erotic film. And in my opinion, it is one of the best low budget erotic films out there.

    I've been reading the IMDb comments and it seems a lot of people have enjoyed the film. As the director, I'm very pleased that so many people have a positive response to it.

    There is one comment; however, that I'd like to clarify. It is the comment by some reviewers that the sex scenes are real. I'm referring specifically to the lesbian scene between Maria Ford and Amber Herrel that took place out by the pool. As with all of the erotic films I've directed or produced, none of the sex scenes are real. They're simulated! I just think it says a lot about Maria Ford's acting ability that so many people think she's really having sex. She's incredible talented and always delivers 100% in every scene she's in; whether it be comedic, dramatic or romantic. I'm sorry to disappoint those reviews who think she's really doing it, but guys, it's called "Acting".

    Great soft-core flick...

    Wow. Maria Ford and Jeannie Millar star in this soft-core romp, another offering from the folks at Mystique/EROS. It opens with a gorgeous Jeannie Millar coming out of the pool, her white bikini top straining to contain her perfectly-shaped breasts. Of course, it's a battle it cannot win...from start to finish this movie delivers the eye-candy and a considerable amount of heat, along with high production values and great performances from the cast.

    Maria Ford looks absolutely scorching in the role of Christy, the boss's horny girlfriend, and in her opening scene she receives not only some fine vaginal massage but some very convincing oral. Sara St. James (billed as Jaqueline Lovell) and Monique Parent also make appearances in this flick, as well as Penthouse Pet Mason Marconi (billed as Amber Herrel). The poolside romp between Maria and Mason is a classic, dripping of sensuality and some of the best simulated sex we've seen this side of "x".

    Our only complaint is that Jeannie Millar wasn't used to her full potential. After her opening shots we were hoping to see a scorching scene, but her coupling with her boyfriend jerk proved disappointing in context with the rest of the film. Not her fault, this woman is extremely sexy; we just think the chemistry between her and the other actor was a bit "off". This flick is definitely on our hot list and well worth checking out, but you MUST get the unrated version.

    Decent flick, I guess......C-

    I forgot if this movie had a plot or not. If it did have one, I must have missed it. Of course there's plenty of sex (as the title of the movie suggests), and it stars my favorite T&A movie babe, Monique Parent. She's been in a lot of these, and it shows....she looks kinda old in this one. Maybe it's the short hair...oh well. In one scene she does a little roleplaying with this guy, he being the master of the house and she playing the part of the naive french maid. Complete with a bad french accent and a skimpy maid's uniform, she prances through the house, "trying" not to be caught by the master. Of course he catches her and....well, you know the rest. That's about it, nothing else too special. Don't sit through the whole thing, but check out the scene I talked about if you want a laugh.

    Waste of a great cast

    This is one of those made for cable or direct-to-video things. Maria Ford has a better character than she did in _I Like to Play Games Too_, but that's not saying much. Monique Parent gets a lot more screen time than the other players, but she looks tired, just going through the motions. Jeannie Millar is in my opinion one of the sexiest women ever to appear on film, and shows a lot of promise as an actress, but this picture just doesn't give her much to do. Her one, brief sex scene is the highlight of the picture.
