    I don't think I've ever cried this hard before

    This movie is by far one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I would like to describe more of how bad it was, but it seems as though my mind as involuntarily blocked out my memory of this movie; all I remember is it had a horrible plot, bad acting and was pretty much a soft core porno. Hell, this movie didn't even have any good action which might have made it minutely worth watching. The cover of the movie is the most misleading thing I have ever seen in my years of existence. Books, movies or magazines usually portray least a fraction of what is to be found within the story.. the woman on the "bounty huntress" cover isn't even in the movie. It was literally like putting the cover of a Steven segal movie on spice world or something. It made no sense. Don't ever watch this movie if you have any remote value for your life.

    Where can I find this movie?

    I saw this movie awhile back and can't seem to track it down. Does anyone know where I can get a hold of it? I feel it is worth seeing again.

    I'm sorry to say I had never heard of Chloe Nicholle until this film. Yes she can act. When I first began to track this movie down I mistook it for another one of her movies, Sex Spa. The plot seems similar to me but the roles are reversed.

    This is the first film I've seen Dru Berrymore. I looked up some of her other films and I feel she looks better as a blonde.

    I agree this is a good introductory movie. Not too soft. Not too hard. You got to start somewhere.

    So bad it hurt my eyes and ears

    First of all this is one of the worst soft-core straight to cable "erotic thriller" I've ever seen in my life. Of course, like all erotic thrillers are want to do, it's about a brothel madam and is set in a brothel. This, of course, makes the softcore simulated sex that pops up every other 10 minutes seem "in context." Whatever.

    Forget for one moment that this was never meant to win any awards. The actors are terrible and their line reading made me cringe. The woman who plays the female cop is so bad it's beyond description. She must be a really REALLY good friend of the guys who put up the movie for this terrible adventure, if you know what I mean.

    The production values are only slightly higher than porn. Other than that? I suppose if you're really drunk and you need something to laugh at, this would be a perfect film. And if that's the case, I recommend fast forwarding to all the scenes with the female cop. What's that accent, Brooklyn? Hilarious!

    Misleading box cover resembling Tomb Raider. Is there anything below a B-Movie?

    Maybe a bit harsh, but I have my reasons. To be honest, there is just as much good (as good as straight to video movies get) as bad in this one.

    I should learn not to judge a movie by the box cover, due to being burned a few times recently by cool looking box covers and absolute crap in the movie. I wouldn't call this movie absolute crap, but it's nothing more than your average B-Movie. Except this B-Movie stars actual porn stars, trying to break through to the other side I presume.

    Let me explain my problem with this movie starting with the box cover. On the front is a woman dressed very similar to Tomb Raider's Lara Croft. The revealing clothes with black gloves, gun in holster and two grenades around her neck. Nowhere in the movie do they use, need or show a grenade or a gun. I was expecting a low budget Tomb Raider action style movie and instead I got an average low budget movie set in a brothel with zero action.

    Nothing what I expected which I believe to be the purpose of the box cover.

    Ranting a little, so I'll go onto my next problem, which is actually the bigger of the two. Dru Berrymore (cleverly disguised as Nicole Hilbig) is not a good actress. She's not even a bad actress. She's not an actress, but a performer in a very different type of movie. The delivery of her lines was not up to par and I don't know if it was a thick accent or what but she annoyed me every time she spoke. In my opinion, she made the movie worse and should have been recast.

    Chloe, however, billed as Chloe Nichole, did make a somewhat believable brothel madame. Could it be that is because she, too, is "acting" in a very similar way to her other movies? She did have the best scenes in the movie, but quite honestly, that was still not a great performance by any means.

    Overall, the movie was pretty straightforward, not many plot twists or turns. Everything pretty much goes as expected. I wasn't pulling my hair out waiting for the movie to end, but it was pretty much in the middle of the road. 5 out of 10.

    ANOTHER LOOK

    I've taken another look at this film and still consider it pretty good. Chloe is one of the few hardcore stars who really can act. She appears occasionally in soft core such as "Body of Love" and "Lady Chatterly's Stories" on Showtime. I thought Nicole Hilbig did OK too with her nice body and charming accent. Too bad she's not in more films.
