Full Exposure: The Sex Tapes Scandal (TV) More at IMDbPro »

Made-for-TV movie, not an erotic thriller, 25 August 2011
Author: StingrayFilms from United States

Despite the racy title, this is a pretty standard TV-movie shown in 1989. Prior to its broadcast there was a big noise and controversy in the press over the supposed decadent and depraved content. (Lisa Hartman plays a cop who goes undercover at an upscale brothel that caters to S&M fetishes, etc.) Plus the added allure of Vanessa Williams as a hooker - fresh from her nude photos scandal in Penthouse - added fuel to the fire.

The media complained bitterly about such sordid trash being flung in the face of the public. The movie itself turned out to be a remarkably tame police drama. No nudity, nothing weird or shocking, just a few quick glimpses of shadowy couples and some off- camera noises (whip-cracking, moans, etc.). Slightly suggestive, but nothing to justify all the fuss. Maybe they saved some footage for the video release, but I doubt it. For this sort of story, better to check out "Undercover" with Athena Massey which really does deliver what it promises.

A "Showgirls" cash-in, 11 September 2004
Author: m_deathbringer from Cambridgeshire, England

I got this for a VERY cheap price from a bookshop in Cambridge, because it was £5 for 4 double-pack DVD's, and i couldn't see any other horror, so i decided to get some 'porn' to make up the numbers. Despite this movies title, and cover, there is no really graphic sex at all, Its basically a straight crime thriller, involving high-class "escort girls" being murdered, blackmail and a very angry detective "doing it his way" after being taken off the case. This has all been done before, but if you are a fan of that genre (I'm not!), or just fancy some late 80's nostalgia (check out all the neon strip lights in the woman's house at the start!), then you should enjoy this.
