Generally, the key word of the plot is "obsession". That's why this film intrigued me. I thought I was about to watch a film about erotic obsession, a topic that was very popular in 80s and 90s and started to look cheap in 00s. A topic that was really reprehensible and often you can see that these type of films (erotic thrillers) have low rating, with some exceptions. Everyone has it's own taste, so I personally like erotic thrillers and especially when they're about erotic obsession, but now things are really complicated.
Let's start by saying that there was so much nudity that I really felt uncomfortable. I've seen so many films with nudity, but this one gave me the impression that I was watching some kind of soft porn. I would prefer the nudity parts were shorter and not that frequent.
Then, the flow of the plot. It was really over the top. How can a diary affect you that much? It's ridiculous. The "tragic" sequence was really silly. They were many cringeworthy moments that made me want to pause the film for a bit.
Some characters were really unnecessary and they're was bad acting throughout the film. Even the dialogues were improvised.
Alyssa Milano was beautiful as always, but unfortunately that isn't always enough.
I had myself laughing at some scenes, because of the cringy aura. Should I give a credit because it made me (at least) laugh (even though it wasn't on purpose)?
I don't know if the director wanted to make a softcore, but it wasn't a nice try. I really think that films like this degrade the "erotic thriller" subgenre and that's why it's not that common nowadays and if there is, it will be strongly criticised.
Thanks to all these aforementioned reasons, this film was quiet fun to watch. I liked the general idea that an artist has an erotic obsession over a young student, but only this thing.
I don't personally recommend it, but if you don't something to do and you want to watch a bad film on purpose, give it a try. I have these moments too sometimes. I just want to watch a bad film, so I can berate it. But always sparingly.
