Although she lives the life of luxury, Marie's distraught over her stepfather not giving her a pair of diamonds, valued at over $4 million, that are entitled to her in her late mother's will. That is, until one of her classmates, the local bad girl Elena Sandoval, accuses her stepfather of rape. Soon, it's deja Vi all over again as Detective Michael Morrison and probation officer Kristen Richards investigate, but as with the first "Wild Things" everything is not what it seems to be, and everybody has secrets to hide.

Trivia

The film is both sequel and remake of the 1998 film and the 2004 film but with differences. Unlike the previous 2 films: Elena, whom has her breasts kissed by Chad (Unlike Kelly and Maya) is not killed off and is revealed as the mastermind behind the scheme. Unlike the previous film, Susie and Brittany, who remove their shirts and are topless, but only their bare backs are seen and are revealed to be the masterminds behind the schemes, is topless and her breasts are seen and is killed off.

Goofs

Marie tells Elena that she knows where Chad is going, but later on she's saying to herself "where's this fuckin diner?" Chad only said "the diner", no road or place name, so apparently she didn't know at all.

User Reviews

better than the 2nd effort,but not great

while there was no reason to make this movie,at least it is better than the 2nd one.the acting is better,the twists are more believable and the characters,while not overly developed,have at least some dimension to them.the movie is much better paced than its predecessor,and will hold your interest for the most part.though you may wonder,as i did,why we needed two sequels to a movie that tells the same basic story only much more effectively.there is not a lot more to say about this one.it certainly falls short of the original.it is still a less than average effort for this genre(just not as bad as the 2nd installment)and offers nothing new.but if you have nothing better to do with your time,you could do worse than watch this movie.keep your expectations low and you may not be too disappointed. 4* out of 10
