Review:
Pornstar Megan(Stacy Valentine) plots to have herself kidnapped to get out of contract with Evil Pictures. Megan's friend Melissa(Toni James)helps her devise a plan. Megan is left tied and gagged in what the girls think is an abandoned mansion. Sam(Mickey G.) finds Megan and she tells him of their plan but Sam sees an opportunity and decides to make the kidnapping real and collect the ransom himself. Sam sends a ransom e-mail note to Nick Norris(Kyle Stone) the head of the studio. Nick's girl friend(Kristina St. James) sees the note first and erases it so she won't lose out on any of Nick's money. Sam is getting anxious when the ransom doesn't show up and Megan thinks that it's Melissa's fault. Megan and Sam leave Melissa a message to get the money or else, but Melissa thinks it's still just a hoax. In the meantime, Megan is drawn to Sam, typical Stockholm Syndrome. The two then decide to make a porn flick while they're waiting for the ransom money. It turns out so good that they forget about the kidnapping and ransom and decide to start their own production company. The end.

Ok, the story kinda boke down when they decided to make a video with just a couple of hours until they were supposed to get the ransom money and the ending was just a bail out. Still, you do get to see Stacy in spandex, tied and gagged in a cage even though all she ever does in that state is just sit there. Stacy plays the perfect victim, but that would be too much to ask from a major studio and they finish it off with a light and happy ending. I never did figure out how this plan was going to get Megan out of her contract.

The music was weak and better lighting would have helped. The writing was good until the last thirty minutes and then it deteriorated. The editing was pretty good for a two-way movie. The cast was good and for the most part delivered their lines well. Stacy, of course, was her usual gorgeous self and plays the part of the victim very well, almost too naturally.

I enjoy watching Stacy and her usual role of sex kitten who's taken by surprise with her own sexuality. When I saw her tied up and gagged I had high hopes for the movie, but they quickly faded as Mickey G. didn't take the opportunity to tease or molest her, which would seem like the normal thing for his character to do. This movie really doesn't follow its obvious course and loses steam, and heat, rapidly. It's an erotic feature film that goes to extremes not to be too erotic.

PT says 3, could have been so much better.
