Directed by Edward Holzman, who co-wrote the film with Meriam Castel, this 1996 film from Playboy Cinema stars Matthew Sullivan as Barry, a private investigator. One day, he’s hired by a woman named Jane (Leslie Harter Zemeckis) to search for her missing younger sister, Jessica (Teresa Politi, aka Teresa Langley). He follows her trail to a small town called Lost Lake. On his way there, he picks up an attractive young hitchhiker named Trix (Jacqueline Lovell), who ends up tagging along with him as he follows clues to Jessica’s disappearance. Together, they uncover evidence of a secret all-female Druidic cult called Daughters of Darkness that worships a demonic entity named Damien, whom they plan to resurrect on a special day they call Solstice. Shauna O’Brien and Leslie Olivan play Connie and Diane, two cult members who set their sights on Barry and plan to use him in their rituals, which involve sex and human sacrifice. Will Barry be able to rescue Jessica and make it out alive? Watch the film to find out!

Storywise, this is a pretty intriguing film, with its supernatural elements and thrilling mystery. Right up to the end, it leaves the audience guessing whether or not “Damien” is real and ends with a satisfying conclusion. And it’s an impressive cast of decent actors and actresses who do well in their roles and don’t just look good naked. And that’s not even counting the seven sex scenes.

Our lucky lead actor Matthew Sullivan (who, strangely, only has this one acting credit on IMDB) has 5 sex scenes, one with Kira Reed Lorsch, who plays a police detective named Carole whom he was dating and sleeps with just before he leaves to find Jessica, plus he has one on one scenes with with Jacqueline Lovell, Leslie Harter Zemeckis, and Shauna O’Brien, and then a threesome with O’Brien and Leslie Olivan (which is absolutely the highlight of the film, in my opinion).

In addition to her scene with Sullivan, Jacqueline Lovell has a scene with James Wlcek, who plays Frank, a guy who works at the hotel in Lost Lake, and then she has her own lesbian threesome with O’Brien and Olivan.

It’s all hot stuff, this is a good looking cast who knows how to make the sex look realistic. This film makes you nostalgic for the days when softcore films had decent budgets and tried to give you an actual story.

Chacebook rating: FIVE STARS
