Dated and silly

Times have changed in the decades since this porn video was released, making the screenplay seem not only outdated but fairly ridiculous. Watching it is not amusing like a screening of say "Reefer Madness" but it does seem quaint.

Simplistic story is basically about wife Shanna McCulloch's refusal to participate in sex acts demanded by her chauvinist husband Mike Horner, as she doesn't like oral sex, for example. He complains to the couple's married friends Jon Martin and Krista Lane in the opening scene, and since they're swingers, Krista immediately suggests she service Horner, with hotwifing-oriented hubby Martin watching approvingly and of course joining in for a threesome.

Propelling the movie's near-campiness is the self-righteous attitude of Horner throughout, essentially taking the position that after 3 years of marriage Shanna is not performing her wifely duties, namely following her husband/master's commands. This fits into porn's traditional attitude that rape doesn't exist (every woman wants it) and specifically that there's no such thing as raping your wife.

For the couple's anniversary, Martin invites them to a sex club to party, and over Shanna's strenuous objections, coerces her to go with them and Krista, stressing how much money he's spent on this "present". They witness, alongside a cast of many extras in the club, a live sex show starring Billy Dee and several femmes, wearing body paint as savages, doing a group sex act. One of the ladies, Brooke West, follows up with audience participation and tries to have sex with Shanna at her table, causing our heroine to be humiliated by the crowd, and flee.

Afterward, Shanna is haunted by erotic dream/nightmares and hallucinations, some of them quite silly (for example, when director Henri Pachard plays a stereotypical money-grubbing plumber who Shanna imagines turns into Billy Dee trying to seduce her in her own bathroom), which cause her to masturbate -typical of porn logic rather than believable behavior. Even dumber, Shanna shows up at the club for an audition and has group sex with Billy Dee and staff femmes, resulting in her getting hired as a sex worker!

That sets up a preposterous climax to the show. First, we see horny Horner, separated for several weeks from Shanna after she's thrown him out of the house, having a foursome with Krista, Jon and another woman at their house. Then the pals go to the sex club and watch Billy Dee and his crew give another live XXX show, after which a black-haired beauty wearing shades from the stage goes into the audience and has sex with Mike in front of everyone, only to reveal she's really guess who under her wig!

It's meant as a surprise ending, but is just as stupid as the rest of the misguided movie.
