The sequel to THE STUD (1978), also based on a Jackie Collins novel, is more of the same - if more elaborately plotted, taking in a diamond heist, fixed horse-races and the mob! The stud this time around is the Italianite but ultra-resistible Micheal Coby and the girl with whom he shares a brief moment of bedroom bliss turns out to be working for the mob - headed by a campy turn from Ian Hendry (who seems to have just strayed in from GET CARTER [1971]).
The mix is as before: tawdry shenanigans in lush settings to (a literally dying) disco-beat. Collins again does a dry-run for what eventually became her signature role, that of Alexis Colby in the long-running TV soap opera "Dynasty". As I said, these films are bad but a fun one-time viewing nonetheless.
