*1/2 out of 4.

A young woman gets mixed up in a cult that is connected to the Marquis De Sade. Handsome looking sets, good make-up effects, lush costumes, and lots of pretty imagery can not cover up the fact that this is an incoherent mess with a skimpy script. The actors and director try hard, perhaps too hard. Rated R; Strong Sexual Content, Nudity, Violence, Adult Themes, and Profanity.
