Description

When sex-happy Julia moves in with her uptight young sister and becomes irresistibly drawn to a next-door storage room where mistress Georgia holds nightly orgies with an oddball sex cult. Armed with a giant joy buzzer, Georgia likes to turn herself on, turn her friends on and, ultimately, turn Julia and her sister on: "I specialize in pleasure. Pleasure so intense, it's akin to torment... exquisite torment...."An offbeat, psychologically twisted skinflick from the always excellent Joe Sarno! Plus: The kink-a-thon continues with Fluctuations, a bizarre don't-even-try-to-make-sense-of-it bombardment of sexual imagery that plays like stream of consciousness from a degenerate: threesomes, foursomes, lesbians, bondage, hair-whipping (!) and, believe it or not, even kung-fu. Avant-garde masterpiece or pure gutter trash? Perhaps both... And: A psycho sex-fiend keeps his infantile girlfriend Vicky (Jennifer Welles) in Submission with candy bars, toys and, yes, hot wax. But when they plan on killing a wealthy lesbian, Vicky discovers she likes a woman's touch and plans a nasty surprise for her boneheaded boyfriend! It's a triple bill of sexploitation skin and sin mixing Joe Sarno sophistication with sleaze and schlock, exactly as they played Times Square back in 1970!

watch just to see old school techno/rave groups FIERCE RULING DIVA, U96 and UTAH SAINTS.......2006-07-25

I'm not going to lie to you, the acting is pretty bad. The 'scene' accuracy is also very very low. For a subculture that had a unique style of dress, Christina Applegate looks as though she just came from a Pearl Jam concert. The music in the film that isn't from any real/legitimate artist of the day sounds the same as the car chase scene music in an old episode of Hunter.

Why should you see this movie? Its so bad that its good. Infact its a personal favourite and thats why I have it 4 stars. Its definately worth checking out to see appearances by classic rave/techno acts FIERCE RULING DIVA and U96.

Sadly, the US edition of the film does not include the performance by the UTAH SAINTS. It was cut from the original VHS release and I expected it to show up on the DVD. I dont know why..probably licensing? ...or maybe the Saint's saw the final cut of the film and didn't want anything to do with it! Here's a tip though, the hong kong region-free release of this dvd includes this cut scene!!

This movie was written and directed by Michael Paseornek who is now the President of Lion's Gate Films. It stars Christina Applegate and James Marshall. Apparently this guy Scott Cohen who plays one of the sidekicks has a following and is often mentioned in relation to this movie. One other actress playing a side part in this is Faye Grant. She is most remembered from the classic 80's sci-fi mini series "V".

best music possible.......2004-05-04

ok first off great acting but the music was banging i would love to get a hold of the soundtrack if its possible the song when he comes out as cyberstorm for the fist time i love that song anyone knows how holla at me

Everything I ever had to say about this movie..........2000-12-21

I give this movie 3 out of 5. One for the Utah Saints, one for being accidentally humorous during the more crucial plot points, and one for the exquisitely lovely and multi-talented Scott Cohen (best known at the time of this review from his recent breakout role as Wolf in the NBC miniseries "The Tenth Kingdom" and as hyper-verbal bad penny Detective Harry Denby on ABC's "NYPD Blue"). Although it's obvious that nobody in the movie is particularly comfortable with the techno genre, Mr. Cohen's "young and strong and perverted... and everything that makes a young man a star" performance as the artiste-ic Simeon makes the whole movie worth watching... or at least the parts with him in it. The remainder of the cast, with the exception of Faye Grant (Zena, the landlady) and, to a lesser exception, David Burke (Geek, Simeon's best bud and resident techie) give performances worthy of a "The Producers" style extraplot. It does appear very much as if someone wanted to see Christina Applegate make out with a freak of nature and wrote a movie about her doing just that.

The only reason to even bother with this movie is if you are 1) really *really* into Christina Applegate (although even so, I don't recommend it, because this movie heavily reinforced my desire to see her struck repeatedly in the mouth with a large, solid object). She attempts to play off as an ethereal earth child and ends up spewing every stereotype imaginable about hippies and flower children. ("Utopia is just around the corner." - Puh leeze.),

or 2) you're really *really* into Scott Cohen. This is a seminal work and for that alone, it's interesting. Comparing Simeon (first big thing) to Wolf (latest big thing), it's amazing to see the versatility *within* stability that this man is able to project. There's no "rough around the edges" or "wet behind the ears" to this person. It's absolutely breathtaking to see someone who knew he was a star from the moment his feet hit the ground. In a Hollywood world of stuttering egos, one hit wonders, and faltering pedagoguery, Mr. Cohen truly stands out as an Actor, an Artist, and a Talent (capitalization very much *intended*).

That is, if you can force yourself to sit through the rest of the movie.

Once again, Scott prevails.......2000-11-21

Okay- to sum it up, the movie wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. The music was good even though I'm not into techno, and the acting could have been worse. I agree wiht Suz's review for the most part (I know her from her site and an e-group) and I think she basiclly said everything I wanted to. Anamika is almost ignorant in the ways of karma, exploration, self-exspression and anything else that has to do with that. I myself am into metapsychics, and think that they should have backed off when it got there. Thankfully though, they didn't focus on it. James Marshall was interestingly good as T.J. BUT the hands he used were obviously fake and you could tell during the rather stupid rave scene it was either not him or he just put metal plates on his hands. Simeon's character was funny;he had the best lines and the most rave-ish attitude, but Scott looked somehow out of place in this movie. (For those of you who don't know, Scott is Scott Cohen, my fave actor who was in 'Gia' '10th Kingdom' and playes Dec. Denby on 'NYPD Blue.' -It's a guest role.-) If anything, Scott is the most likeable character, and is in the best scenes. If you see this movie, do it for Scott or to laugh during the whole thing because even at 2 am, this movie sucked worst then a high school drama club, 2 week rehersal play.

A very mixed bag - but worth the effort for one thing.......2000-08-13

This film can best be summed up with a simple two-word phrase:

Nice try.

Allow me to explain.

SPOILERS AHEAD! IF YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW, DON'T READ!

TJ (James Marshall) is on his way to becoming a well-established and well-known musician, his specialties being the keyboard and the guitar. He and his band have begun to get the recognition they have worked so hard for, and the future looks bright.

Viewers note: when the future starts to look bright or in the smallest bit rosy, you can guarantee something bad is about to happen.

Something bad happens.

Bet you didn't see that coming.

Late for a performance after canoodling with his girlfriend (Paige Turco, later to turn up on `American Gothic' and `NYPD Blue'), he unfortunately gets involved in an incident with a gang of thugs that ends up with TJ losing both his hands.

Needless to say, TJ is incredibly upset, not knowing how to go on without being able to express his `talents'. After his girlfriend freezes up when he touches her with his new artificial hands, he leaves home.

Finding himself in the city he lives on the streets, spending most of his time drunk and trying to clean car windows.

One afternoon he crawls into a building and snoozes, until loud music wakes him. It seems that at night the building turns into the setting for a rave, and TJ has found himself smack bang in the middle of one.

Enter Anamika (Christina Applegate). Her real name is Marie or something, but I guess Anamika is easier to say...

Seeing TJ is clearly not sure of what's going on, she leads him outside to get some air...eventually, through a whole pile of incidents I'm not going to get into (yes, it was boring and tedious and this review will end up the same way), he moves in with her so he can dry out and no longer be dependant on alcohol.

It's here where we meet the people who live in the same building as Anamika:

Zina (Faye Grant): The landlady, who despite - or because of - her defensiveness, seems to have a thing for Simeon. Also has a thing for metal and performance art.

Geek/Leonard (some guy): A geek - computer whiz, technological whiz, glasses, always wears a white shirt. A computing cliché.

Simeon (Scott Cohen, who incidentally also turns up on NYPD Blue before this film as one character, and after it as another, but is best known as Wolf from `The 10th Kingdom'): The ladies man with a heart of gold. A new girl every day but that's why they love him ("He's a tramp, but they love him..."), and he protects and sticks up for his friends.

I describe this at the top as `worth the effort for one thing'; Scott Cohen is the one thing.

For all the films good intentions - the fact that life is worth living after disability, true love can happen anywhere - there's an itty, bitty, little problem.

It sucks.

If James Marshall gets any less expressive, he'll fall into a coma. His hairdo is straight out of the 80's (even after he has it cut). The metal hands made for him are so OBVIOUSLY too big and clumsy for him to play the keyboard with the required accuracy.

Christina Applegate's character believes in karma, in spirituality - that's fine. But I know people who also believe in those things and not a single one of them speaks the way she does - as if her head were stuck up something unpleasant because she's so full of herself.

But it's not all bad news.

The actor who plays Geek is actually quite good, as is TJ's girlfriend, effectively showing her unintentional reaction to his hands. Faye Grant is great as Zina, and then, of course, we come to Mr Scott Cohen.

Ah, thank heavens. I make no secret of my admiration for Mr Cohen's work, and I'll continue to make it no secret right now.

Simeon is...probably best described as an intelligent Joey from `Friends'. Or, a ruder version of Wolf from `The 10th Kingdom'.

In fact, Simeon is startlingly close in characterisation to Wolf. Energetic, enthusiastic, acting on his impulses as often as he can, but also fiercely protective of those he loves.

The big difference? Wolf is saving himself for the right woman. Simeon finds the right woman - or more - every day.

Personally, I think the right woman for Simeon would be Zina. The chemistry and dialogue between them is terrific, and that goodbye kiss was very revealing.

Not that I spend that much time thinking about it.

Really.

Or it could just be that I'm an obsessive compulsive with a Scott Cohen fixation.

Either way, he's the reason the film gets three stars. I do want to give it five, but the bulk of it just drags the score right down.

Piece of advice: just watch Simeon's scenes. Cute, charming, funny, best lines, nice guy. If you do decide to watch the whole thing, watch it with a group of friends and make fun of it. Believe me, it's VERY entertaining.

Rounding up...let's return to the beginning...nice try, but as they say, no cigar.

Like it or not, Dr. Eugene Landy was right..... .......2006-04-02

Finally got around to buying this title. First and foremost, those looking for some live Brian Wilson stage action circa 1976 will be disappointed. He sings no songs onstage and they don't even cut to him the few times he is on the piano. I saw no footage of him on bass either.

Instead, the value of this DVD is held mostly in the studio performances:

I'm Bugged at my Old Man - Bri, Dennis and Carl around a piano. Notice them all looking at each other and laughing at some of the lyrics as if they might have been true happenings in the Wilson household.

That Same Song - Live in a baptist church with the boys and a full choir singing accompanied only by an unknown guy on piano

Dennis Wilson - You are so Beautiful - same as the 'An American Band' footage if I'm not mistaken

The rest of the 'live' show is unexciting subpar to the Knebworth show of just a few years later in regards to performance quality and participation from Brian. The Akroyd/Belushi bits and sketches are all throwaway as far as I'm concerned.

Dr. Landy was right. At this time, Brian was not ready to be 'back' in the band which is well evident in his performances, state of mind and songwriting quality.

For a high quality viewing experience search out the little seen 'The Beach Boys Video Hits' on DVD. This footage includes all of their live TV performances dated roughly 1961-1965 with many live BB performances with very energetic Brian Wilson participation (Little St. Nick, When I Grow Up to Be a Man, Barbara Ann, Monkeys Uncle, etc.) It's no wonder everybody cried when Bri told them he would no longer tour. It was a different band before 1965...

I've always felt that when the boys got back together to do Nashville Sounds, they should have been finishing SMiLE instead. This would have given them the chance to maturely demonstrate to the world the talent, spirit and harmony that is 'The Beach Boys'.

Nostalgia with a twist.......2005-09-10

This concert was filmed during the infamous "Brian Is Back" campaign in 1976 and shown on TV at the time. The concert is interrupted by footing of interviews with band members and friends. Curiously, the whole thing works, even though the performances on stage seem forced at times, Brian looks disturbed on stage and the famous harmonies are missing in most parts. Still, there are true highlights: For me, the performance of "That Same Song" with a gospel choir (not on stage) is simply amazing. It is far more emotional and powerful than the original version that appeared on 15 Big Ones. This should have appeared on record. Another highlight is Dennis rendition of "You Are So Beautiful". For fans of Dennis, this DVD is a true find, because he is shown prominently throughout the film. He plays it cool as a member of the jury for a beauty contest with "California Girls" playing in the background. Great stuff.
The full screen picture quality is so-so (70s TV standard), The sound actually quiet good thanks to remastering and DTS 5.1. Running time is relatively short and there are no extras. Still, grab it if you love the Beach Boys. It is a great addition to every fan's collection.
