Diary Of A Sex Addict: Review

starstarstarstar
A shot-on-video melodrama that offers underdeveloped characters indulging in shrink-wrapped sex scenes and will prove a grueling experience for soft-core aficionados. Restaurateur Sammy Horn (Michael Des Barres) just can't help himself! Even though he has a loving wife, Grace (Rosanna Arquette), and an adoring child, Sammy chases everything in skirts. Aware that his tomcatting is taking a toll on his marriage, Sammy confides in psychologist Jane Bordeaux (Nastassja Kinski). But true to form, this satyr compromises his therapy by hitting on his beautiful analyst. The out-of-control Sammy gets hauled to jail after some loud public sex in a restaurant restroom annoys patrons. The threat of criminal charges temporarily cools his jets, but not for long. When he isn't visiting his mistress or picking up hookers, he's screwing sous-chef Veronica (Aviva Gale) in the storeroom of his own establishment. Addicted to intercourse, and short-tempered when he doesn't get it, Sammy grows increasingly petulant and reckless. Angered by remarks from a movie ticket-taker named Ordell (Troy Winbush), Sammy demands that the theater's manager fire him. But Ordell has a criminal record and starts stalking Sammy; Ordell even exposes Sammy when the relentless roue slips into a boutique dressing room with a babe. Sammy pacifies Ordell by giving him a job at his restaurant, but he has a slew of other enemies in the furious women scorned he's left in his philandering wake. One, a nurse who's still seething over having been dumped, avenges herself by altering Grace's blood-work results. Sammy's world collapses when he receives the false news that his wife is HIV+. Clinical and soporific, this sex opera begs pity for its tumescent anti-hero. But the film works neither as a confessional drama nor erotic frolic. leave a comment --Robert Pardi
