daumco's Full Review: Animal Instincts 3: The Seductress
Plot Details: This opinion reveals everything about the movie''s plot.
Joanna Coles, played by Wendy Schumacher, likes to show off. She likes to perform too, but thats not all. Possessed of a great figure, she likes to be observed while doing intimate things. To spread her intimacy around, taking the intimacy out of intimacy. Enter Alex Savage. Alex played by James Matthew, is the perfect foil for Joannas exhibitionist tendencies, being a voyeur and a game player. The foremast game in Alexs repertoire is pretending to be blind. Youd be surprised what people will do in front of you if they think you cant see them.
The Plot
I must admit, I cannot ascertain a discernable plot. The plot seems to center around Alex Savage, his penchant for game playing. As things proceed, the viewer may wonder just how far he can go, without someone being hurt or killed.
The Story
Well known rock promoter Alex Savage is rich and kinky. He first comes across the equally kinky Joanna Coles in a bar. Mostly undressed, she looks up and smiles at Alex, while getting laid on a pool table by an anonymous bar patron, as he and a gaggle of spectators goggle the spectacle. Shortly thereafter, Joanna who purports to be an author, in the throes of writers block, between her other throes, receives an invitation to party at a party at Alexs mansion.
Not one to shrink from a challenge, she attends the party, where she succumbs to Alexs charms, or maybe he succumbs to Joannas charms, its difficult to tell. In any event they go to bed (actually couch) and ostensibly seal some unspoken agreement. Joanna moves in to Alexs pad and proceeds to seduce Alexs clients in front of the deceptively blind record producer while he maneuvers his new housemate into these situations, intently watching the results. Its like hes Joannas fairy god pimp, arranging and setting in motion her interludes.
Conclusion
By now, you may have decided that this movie sounds interesting. Let me assure you my description sounds far more interesting than it actually is. While the directing and acting is decent, after a while I got a little tired of the story. While it my sound scintillating, for me it started to get lame. But thats not the worst of it. In an erotic softcore movie the two most important things are the attractiveness of the cast and quality of the sex scenes. Admittedly the cast was attractive but the sex scenes were passionless, lacking emotion and wooden.
I also found a couple scenes between Joanna and Alexs recording artist clients to be disingenuous. Even if Alex was truly blind, he wasnt deaf, yet Joanna and her partner de jour would always make love in front of Alex. One time when he was having a conversation with his client, the conversation just died while Joanna seduced him. Alex kept talking even though nobody answered him. All things considered. I felt the good and bad features of the movie canceled each other out, therefore I gave the film an average rating. 3 stars.
