Deep Throat Part II (1974)

BOMB (out of 4)

Nurse Lovelace (Linda of course) and Dr. Jayson (Harry Reems) get involved in a government conspiracy as they try to bring down a man known as Dilbert Lamb. It turns out Lamb is harboring a secret government computer so Lovelace must use her magic to try and help.

DEEP THROAT broke into the mainstream and became a huge success even though it was a hardcore porn film. There's no question that it was a major game changer so obviously a sequel would be a no-brainer. Joseph W. Sarno's DEEP THROAT PART II is pure exploitation at its very worse. The film is basically a R-rated attempt to try and cash in on the success of the first film.

There were rumors for years that it was shot as a hardcore picture but these sequences were stolen by the Mafia. There are rumors that it was meant to be shot softcore because Lovelace refused the sex. There are all sorts of rumors out there about the film but as it stands this is basically just a screwball comedy with nothing going for it. When I say nothing I really do mean nothing because there's really not much sex, there's no laughs and the entire thing is just very annoying.

Even if they didn't advertise this as a sequel to the hardcore legend the film still wouldn't work. The entire story is just downright dumb and doesn't make for any entertainment. Even worse is that the comedy is so bad that you just find yourself sinking into your seat. Even worse is the fact that Reems, Lovelace and even Jamie Gillis are just wasted. Poor Lovelace has a beautiful smile but that wasn't what people were coming to see.

DEEP THROAT PART II probably made some quick cash at the box office but it's a really horrible movie that doesn't have anything going for it.
