Joey Heatherton steals this show, 27 June 2007
9/10
Author: rawise2 from United States

I disagree with the reviewer who cannot spell Raquel Welch's name properly (spelled it Welsh). This movie is definitely twisted. What this movie lacks is is the Quentin Tarrantino treatment and thank goodness for that! None of the characters but Joey's are likable. The rest are downright hateful. 1960s Sex Goddess Raquel Welch plays a nymphomaniac nun called Magdalena. One of the 1960s premiere Sex Kittens, Joey Heatherton, does a fine job with her role and gives us a Big Bonus by baring her delectable C-cup natural breasts. And we get to watch her puppies play in a see-thru black top. She's the only sympathetic character in the movie and the one we cheer for. Joey exudes both sex appeal and talent in this movie. Her performance and her body are both a pleasure to watch. I give this movie four stars for having almost everything needed to make a movie great 1)beautiful scantily clad and naked women 2) good plot 3) good character development and acting 4) high suspense. It's only lacking a high action sequences (See my QT comment above.)
