Just another "B" movie with some nudity, I rate it 3 of 10., 21 November 1999
Author: TxMike from Houston, Tx, USA, Earth

My cable provider is offering free HBO for a couple of weeks, so I watched when this came on. Its title was only picked to try and get you to see his movie. The dialog and acting are second-rate, but the surprise ending is a bit cute, I thought, and at least gave the movie some redeeming quality. Although, few 'normal' people can identify with the outcome.

Some scenes were shot in New Orleans, where I used to live, and that kept some interest for me. Maybe that's why I gave it such a high rating! :-)

Summary - probably not worth your time unless you're really, really bored!
