A sex comedy that comes straight from the bottom of the barrel, this farce details a power struggle at TV station WSEX.
"Weather girl" Kendall (Amy Lynn Baxter) and randy sports commentator Brian (John Richardson) vow during a news broadcast to capture a mad bomber who has been blowing up empty buildings and town statues. But the station's ratings are soaring thanks to news coverage of his work, which pleases
station manager Buell (Ken DaShow) and chief sponsor Frank Friendly (Scott Baker), a self-help guru.
While Kendall wants to get into producing and Brian covets anchorman Ron's (Eric Hansen) slot, the station's associate producer, Amanda (Debbie Rochon), would like to get rid of both of them; she bribes Techie (Salvatore Thomas) to secretly record some of Brian's S&M dressing-room antics. An old
high school friend, studio carpenter Neil (Joseph Pallister) becomes Kendall's lover and joins her in searching for the bomber, who has threatened to blow up the station during the upcoming charity telethon.
During a weekend seminar with Friendly, Amanda (posing as Kendall) tricks the "three little words" secret of Friendly's philosophy out of him, which she threatens to publicly reveal, thus ruining his business. During the climactic telethon, the planted bomb fails to detonate, but Brian
accidentally causes a minor explosion. In the ensuing melee, Friendly tries to stop Amanda's airing of his secret, while Techie's tape of Brian is accidentally broadcast. Then, the bomber is revealed to be Buell, who is led away by the police while Kendall and Neil leave, arm in arm.
The screenplay makes little sense on any level, and the resulting, inept film, shot 95% indoors on zero-budget sets, harkens back to 1970s porn films, when the plot simply served as padding for random nudity and sex sequences; here, the latter are quite lethargically performed. The idiotic
dialogue conveys all the movie's action, so that it doesn't actually have to be seen.
The cast is welcomely attractive, with Debbie Rochon (ABDUCTED II) registering as the most animated performer. After her star turn here, Amy Lynn Baxter was still best known only for being the 1992 Penthouse Pet of the Year.
Silly without being at all funny, the amateurish film, listlessly directly by Ernest G. Sauer and shot mostly in Toronto, makes the somewhat similar Marilyn Chambers video features look like models of erotic comedy. As chance would have it, the building used for the SEX offices is situated next to
an interesting-looking graveyard, which is somewhat symbolic given that this is one dead picture. Released direct-to-video and pay-cable TV.(Extensive nudity, sexual situations, profanity.) leave a comment
