Pamela Jean Bryant looked very much the Girl Next Door as a Playmate in April of 1978. In this she plays a former porn star the wife of a wealthy criminal defense lawyer who also is a butterfly collector. (the name comes form the jar he uses to kill specimens) He has collected Pamela. She tires of his masochistic sex and then he tires of her. He gets the hots for the girl she thinks is her best friend. He decides to kill his wife...in the midst of all this an obsessed fan of her breaks into the house.
Pamela Bryant and her friend, Alina Thompson, are both lovely. The acting is pretty good if overdone at times and the story is kinda predictable. There is plenty of nudity even pubic hair briefly and a fairly intense imagined rape scene. Fans of Miss Bryant will be pleased to know that she is holding up well. IF you ARE a fan the movie it's worth seeing just for that.
The editing is so bad that at one point there was a test pattern on the video I saw. The score is good but the music reaches climactic points when nothing is happening....I attribute this to editing. You will be constantly aware of the camera. It zooms in and out and pans constantly.
A twist at the end makes it worth watching. I give it 2.5 out of 5.
