Since his wife's death, Arthur, a peculiar and severe surgeon, cloisters his teen daughter Lucille inside a strange mansion. Desperate, Lucille tries to commit suicide and ends up with her face completely burned and bandaged. Arthur, with the assistance of his aunt, prepares a weird skin graft in order to give back Lucille a face, a face that resembles his beloved and deceased wife. To take care of her, the father then hires Joan, an attractive nurse with a somber past. Lucille and Joan start a forbidden and passionate love affair.

Porn Chic

I was surprised at the very low score of this movie. It seemed like it would not warrant such a low score. I was proved wrong.

The movie is basically a softcore porno. The character development and acting is on par with a porno. The writing and dialogue is on par with a porno. The cinematography is a small cut above a porno. The sex scenes are a cut below a porno.

I could go into more depth on the reasoning behind those four statements, but it seems pointless to reenact the movie in my head. I'll just say that the dad in the movie acts cartoonishly evil. The nurse is very poorly developed and comes off as an implausible character. The daughter seems to have rapid changes in character shift for no apparent reason. And the other characters are essentially beside the point.
