Tagline: When the Pleasure stops, the killings begin

Review: I watched this expecting the debauchery mentioned in the plot summery, unfortunately like everything about the movie the debauchery was more hinted at then supplied. Would I watch this again, no. Do I regret having watched it, no. Basically it is a great plot idea that was not executed on. Plot: I actually liked the plot for this movie. A house where anything goes and everything is possible. Put a cop in the house and have him try to solve the murders happening there. Unfortunately there were so many things they could have done with this to turn this plot into an amazing movie and they didn’t. The scenes are more like random skits tied together. Characters: The characters weren’t bad, but like everything in this movie they just lacked depth. No real back story and so you didn’t feel for any of the characters. Acting: The acting in this movie wasn’t the worst, but would not win any awards. Most of the acting wasn’t totally wooden but still sounded like they were reading queue cards. Intangibles: There was only one scene of nudity in the movie and it was a girl in a strip club. There were numerous scenes showing sex toys or spanking a person clothed in a skimpy outfit, but no real pull from that angle. There was some gore but it was not over the top and did not drive the movie. Really just not much going for this movie in this type of area.
