Watchable in spite of itself
gridoon202418 May 2009
"Wicked Sins" sounds like the title of a generic straight-to-DVD erotic thriller, and that's exactly what this is. There is little doubt that the script is frequently absurd (starting with the female detective's complete lack of professionalism - to get seduced by a suspect, in the tradition of "Basic Instinct", is acceptable for the genre, but to take a shower in his own house on the first morning after you met him is not! And I won't even mention what she does, again in his own house, the night before when she still thought he was dead!), the direction is strictly flat, and the acting is no great shakes by anyone. But at least Yvette Faulkner and Nadia Foster have nice bodies, and the running time is short (unless there's a longer "uncut" version out there), keeping the film reasonably watchable. *1/2 out of 4.

Predictive as usual

When detective Sara Parsons is assigned to the murder of fashion photographer Jonathon Lawson it appears to be an open and shut case. But when Jonathon turns up alive and kicking, things start to get interesting. The corpse appears to be that of Jonathon's twin brother. However, as Sara digs deeper into the case all her hidden sexual desires overflow as she finds herself in bed with Jonathon. Knowing her career is at stake, she struggles to resist the allure of his glamorised world. But love proves a dangerous proposition with these deadly twins.

Awful, awful, awful. A simple no-brainer storyline. Lots of softcore scenes with the addition of pornstar Nadia Foster giving slight glimpses between her legs.

Acting skills of all: bad to the core

Warning: Spoilers
Spoilers herein.

I collect films about films, and have discovered a huge class that this film represents. Fashion photographer or pornographer. Video tapes of sex. A murderer. A detective also engaged in sex somehow, often with someone involved in the case. Extremely low production values. Lots of simulated, flavorless sex of course.

These aren't mysteries in the traditional sense where we are introduced to suspects and then suss things out. Instead, we have the TeeVee version where characters pop up as we go. Never mind, you should be able to spot the murderer quickly, especially if you know that absolutely nothing (minus the sex) is there unless it is necessary. So when a scar is noted, it is important.

Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 4: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.

Dreadful

A model and a fashion photographer are both killed. It's up to Detectives and ex-lovers, Sara Parson and Luke Gage to find out who did it. Then Sara falls for the murdered guy's twin brother's charms. One of the worse soft-core porns that I've watched. And if you read any of my other reviews, you know that I'm not one prone to hyperbole. The sex scenes arn't erotic in the least, no moaning, and to top it off they're all cut short. What the hell was Director Frank Carson thinking??

The Goods: 9 Sex Scenes not even full scenes (M/F, F/F, M/F/F), inerracial, nude modeling

Babe of the Movie:Lorraine Spaughton, because she's hot AND she gets murdered within the first 5 or so minutes, so you can watch her sex scene & change the channel

My Grade: F

Where I Saw It: Showtime Too
