Okay this is just hot

It's quite a brilliant fetch to have Shannon Tweed as the villain,because seeing her use her looks for evil and not for good/neutral is a real turn-on.Come to think about,she wouldn't have been a bad pick for "Basic Instinct".This could be the nudity talking,but she's able to look and act way more evil than Sharon Stone.The plot for what it's worth:after a guy can't get promotion despite lending his wife to the right people,he like,totally kills himself.His wife,understandably,demands vengeance and wants to kill the total jerk who did get the promotion,Alex Weston.Only her idea of vengeance is having wild sex with everybody around him.That'll teach 'em.The audience is given what it wants:ye olde soft core classics(pool table anyone?),but also teenage boy's phantasies brought to life,a lesbian scene,shower scenes.I always wonder how they keep the camera from getting wet.The writing actually proves to be good,even if by accident.For instance,the maid interrupts what could have easily become another steamy sex scene,and you just want her to like,not be there.Then she gets killed.Again,they know what the audience wants.Could you believe it,a soft core movie with a plot that actually kinda makes sense.The ending was both fairly surprising and I should mention hot.If you're ever going to watch soft core accept no substitute
