I don't have a problem with the softcore industry, I still hail FEMALIEN as the greatest softcore of all time. This film is nowhere near the league of that one. If it weren't for gorgeous Tammy Parks, there wouldn't be any positive points to hit upon.

The movie revolves around low-rent hacker Michael, played by Kevin Summerfield, who is as bad an actor as it comes. But I'll give him credit; he's better than the non-actress who plays his girlfriend, Mandy Leigh.

Michael is involved with a deal to sell some computer hacked secrets on the black market. His cohorts break into the computer system of the worlds largest computer gaming firm and steal information pertaining to their newest virtual reality game, Pleasure.

Pleasure is nothing more than a sex game with Vixen (Tammy Parks) as the main attraction. Once you've been seduced, she leaches onto you and keeps bringing you back for more. Eventually she steals your soul. Personally, I can't think of a better way to go then in the throws of passion with Tammy Parks, well, maybe the throws of passion with Debbie Rochon.

But I digress… Michael has a problem staying loyal to his girlfriend, so he visits Vixen fairly frequently. The sex between the two is fairly explicit. I've been told that Tammy has done hard core porn at some point in her past. It still carries over to her present carrier. From the looks of things here and in TITANIC 2000, she has no shame whatsoever. She'll get naked at the drop of a dime.

Mandy Leigh isn't too hard on the eyes either, she just has a voice that grates on your nerves as if someone were taking a jackhammer to your skull. I hate to attack someone personally, but if you have someone who can't deliver speaking parts, then keep their lines to a minimum. Better yet, just keep them naked and in the background.

The plot is just tight enough to string the sex scenes along. I would like to have seen what would have been done if the actors could do what their job titles indicates. There is promise somewhere in here, it's just not followed up with anything. That's probably my biggest problem with the movie. There are so many avenues where the story could explore, but does not.

Maybe I'm looking for something that shouldn't be there. The film is, after all, a softcore. As for the sex, it delivers in spades. If that is all you are looking for, then this is a film for you. If you want a good softcore, take your pick from any of the Surrender Cinema titles.
