Madison-8

Okay, granted, the plot of the movie is nothing we didn't see in a kajillion other sex comedies in the late 1970s and early 1980s, but with a massive soundtrack of nothing but the biggest songs of the time (Foreigner, Blondie, Queen, the Police, etc.) and even a portion of the film shot at a live NFL Rams game, you would figure it would be more well-known than it is. Given the skimpy listing it has here on IMDb, it's surprising. I can understand it not being on DVD - the music rights alone would cost a fortune - but it's a shame it's not even "cult classic" enough to have more than one comment on here before mine.

As a product of the early 90s porn resurgence, this particular entry does a few things right, but there's enough of the usual to keep it weighted in the "eh" category.

Buck Adams plays the doctor who brings his dead wife (Rebecca Wild) back to life. Unfortunately for him, the brain used is that of a dead axe murderer. As time goes by, the new personality starts to dominate Wild.

The best parts of the film involve Adams and Wild. Unlike many performers in these films, there appears to be true passion in their eyes as they do their business. That scores brownie points with me. Adams isn't a half-bad actor either, and that helps. Also, Wild has never looked more beautiful than in this film. Unfornuately, there's also an out-of-nowhere piece of two consecutive sex scenes involving Anna Malle and two other girls that seem out of place, and are almost of the "pizza delivery guy" school of porn film-making.

Brittany O'Connell contributes a decent enough scene in the middle. Not her best, but far from her worst.

Worth watching for the first Adams/Wild sex scene, and possibly O'Connell's, but otherwise, standard fare.

I don't "get" Max Hardcore. I mean, I understand what he does and even why he does it, but it's just not something I completely understand. I like my adult films to have something resembling even the remotest sense of erotica in them, and Hardcore could not care less about that. His films are often very...slimy. I just can't think of another word. I won't say he shouldn't be making it, because I'm a proponent of free speech and all that, but it's just a little low-life for me.

This film has Hardcore having sex with three separate women. The first (I think, they may be out of order here) is Amy Lee. Amy's a very cute girl, but she's wearing enough baby-doll make-up to make her look like a nightmare clown from hell (that's another thing I'm not fond of in Hardcore's films: Most of the girls are made up to look younger than they are). Valerie Jo's scene is routine and doesn't get as nasty as Max is known for. Finally, there is Queeny Love. I love Queeny, but her scene here is so much of a nothing that it's worthless.

If you like your pornos rough and sleazy, this is all yours. I'll be checking out something that shows the girls in a little more respective and erotic light.
