Not bad, as these things go
Tito-87 December 1998
Let me make it abundantly clear from the start that this is only a competent movie. But for an erotic thriller, that is a huge accomplishment. There is some clever writing, and even a plot twist or two, which is amazing for a genre that tends to favour gynecological close-ups over a solid script. This film still has a fair amount of flesh, with Wendy Schumacher filling up the screen with her gravity-defying chest, but for once, the story overshadows the skin. And although the story is only so-so, I'll give credit to the filmmakers for trying to make a good movie, and coming quite close.

And off- pun intended, even if I just came up with it (no I am not claiming I coined that phrase/pun). Depending on what you expect to see here, you will either be excited (again there might be a pun here) or rather dissapointed. Although if you are the latter ... what did you actually expect? Yes there is a lot of skin and a lot of ... love making (you may call it something else too).

There is also a story that is barely hanging on by a thread. It is decent enough I reckon for a flick of this ... nature. And if you are thinking naughty by nature ... I will not stop you, because I am all for puns. All jokes aside, if you did not grew up liking movies of this kind, I doubt you will find anything appealing since movies have become way more explicit in many regards since then.

Be aware what you are embarking on here ... acting wise it could be worse, but also better. I doubt any twists will really surprise you.

Not as good as the first, but decent........B+.

Tane' McClure takes over the role that Shannon Tweed made famous in Scorned 2. Although she could pass as Tweed's sister, she can't carry this film the way Tweed carried Scorned. The story is updated as we find Amanda has moved on, re-married, and settled down. Her new hubby is a professor at the local university. She's been having flashbacks of some horrifying experience in her past (they show scenes of the first Scorned) and is tormented by them. Her husband finally gives in to the extreme temptation of being an attractive professor surrounded by extra-horny college girls. Amanda catches her husband having sex with a student in his office, and that's when it all goes downhill. Plot twist after plot twist follow, as Amanda seeks some sweet revenge on her straying husband. I'm quite familiar with some of Tane' McClure's work, and this is one of her better movies. She doesn't get an A because she's playing a character that Shannon Tweed shined in, and she just falls short a bit (but not much). This flick gets a B+, watch it if you've got time on Friday night.

An excellent film!!!
nathid3 February 2001
An alright sequel to an excellent original. This has Tane McClure (daughter of Doug McClure) taking over from Shannon Tweed in the lead role, and although she is not as good as Tweed was, there's not much in it.

The story starts a couple of months after the original left us on tenter hooks, with Amanda Cressfield (McClure) completely recovered after her ordeal in the original and happily married to college tutor Mark (Myles O'Brien). But, when she catches him having sex with one of his beautiful students, her repressed, past memories are brought from the back of her mind and Amanda snaps, and seeks violent revenge on her husband, and anyone else who has ever wronged her...

There is a cracking story, with plenty of steamy sex to fill in the gaps, personally, I'd give it 3 stars.

Plenty of sex and hot women. Still not as good as the original.

This would actually be a great soft core feature with another title. See, Shannon Tweed starred in the original and gave a memorable performance as the kinky, sex addicted Amanda. How could you not remember the infamous sex scene on the pool table? Yes, the same one where Shannon Tweed makes extremely arousing faces while being taken from behind.

On this sequel you might expect the same amount of sex, sensuality, and hot women. Well we get it but it's not enough taking in account the original was top quality.

In this sequel we get the always sexy and sexual Tane McClure and an impressive beauty with Wendy Schumacher who always shines.

The plot is about betrayal and best of all for us morbid fans, infidelity. Tane's husband cheats on her even on her office with Schumacher's character. A really good scene where Wendy wears stocks and is taken on the desk. Nice stuff.

But the highlight of the movie is the steamy long sex sequence where Tane's character has passionate sex with Wendy's young boyfriend. A scene that always makes me think of "Friend of the Family II".

This isn't a classic but still worths a watch.

Psycho Class
tedg11 June 2002
Warning: Spoilers
Spoilers herein.

Science fiction mentality. Imagine a world far away where men find this type of beast attractive, someone who has pumped up her breasts to comic proportions, has liposuction scars, whose lips vary in size as the jelly dissolves and who wears a Halloween wig.

Now imagine that she has amnesia, and that a PSYCHOLOGY PROFESSOR marries her. Are you in that far away place yet?

Okay, now suppose that this was really a psycho killer but she can't remember that she is. In fact, she was a violent, nympho drug addict.

In this world, there is an audience of nitwits who would be interested in a movie where she remembers her past and her violent erotic tendencies because of inexpert hypnotism and/or discovering her husband cheating with a student. At the same moment the father of her last victim appears, someone with whom she also was having sex.

That's the setup, which takes ever so long. We believe none of it, especially that there is an audience for such a film. There are a few simulated sex scenes, but these are so inexpertly done that it cannot be the point.

The real action of the film is her revenge: changing the student's grades, screwing her boyfriend then killing her. Also taking care of the investigating father (why would he do this?) and his wife. The hypnotizing psychologist gets it too and it all gets pinned on the hubby. Remember, this is supposed to be a really smart guy who understands the science of how people think and what motivates them.

Great science fiction.

Sexy Schumacher Scores!!!
Ray-14223 October 1999
This is probably one of the best erotic thrillers of all time. Two Beautiful women leading with a great supporting cast. Wendy Schumacher gives an excellent perfomance as a student in love with her teacher and having a boyfriend to the side. Tane McClure also stars as a gorgeous wife with a deadly past. All together this is a great movie.
