Rating: Summary: Alysa Milano exposed Review: NR, more like PG-13. This film may have a couple of good scenes for those Alysa Milano fans. But nothing more than just really softcore stuff. If your a guy, Don't get this for your collection. It only has just like 5 minutes of very mild action, total.
Rating: Summary: an erotic thriller, but not erotic! ......or thrilling Review: Okay, so I didn't understand this movie at all. It's suppose to be about a young woman named Lily, who moves to a big college but just doesn't fit in (although, she has female friends and a bunch of guys are clamoring to date her, so I'm not exactly sure how they define "fit in" in this movie). Then, she finds Ivy's old diary ("Ivy" as in "Poison Ivy", the evil seductress chick from the first movie) and starts reading it, and becomes seduced by it's promises of lust and power or whatever.The thing that's ridiculous about this movie is, all the guys in it are already trying to seduce her long before she starts dressing slutty and declares herself a seductress. I'm serious. Her first "prey", a fellow college student who's a sculptor, tries to seduce her while she's still innocent but after they kiss, she runs away. Then she reads the diary, cuts her hair, puts on some slutty clothes, goes back and finds him and "seduces" him. Honestly, I don't think he even noticed any difference. Then there's her art teacher. Now, the first Poison Ivy movie was about Drew Berrymore moving in with her friend and then seducing that friend's father and tearing the family apart, as evidenced by the picture on the front of the box of a family photograph being ripped in half. So on the box for Poison Ivy 2, they try to imply the same thing by showing a photograph of the art teacher along with his wife and daughter, and the photograph is being ripped in half. What's funny is, the very first scene in the movie is of the art teacher having sex with another one of his art students but then deciding she's no fun any more and he needs to find a new student to seduce. The art teacher's daughter, who's like five, only comes into play when he hires Lily to baby-sit, in a move to seduce her. As for the sex scenes in this movie.... when you watch the unrated version of Poison Ivy: The New Seduction, the point seems to be to show Jamie Presley naked as much as humanly possible. When you watch the unrated version of THIS movie, the point seems to be to make the sex scenes as untitilating to watch as possible. After having seen Embrace of the Vampire, I expected Alyassa Milano to be dropping her towel and accidentally ripping open the front of her blouse as much as possible, but in actuality, in the very few scenes we DO see of her topless, she has her hands in the way of her bosoms almost the entire time. Now, I hope I don't come off as a pervert or anything, but honestly, if the movie's an "erotic thriller", then isn't it suppose to be erotic? Their are however several other scenes where we get to see random women who don't even have speaking parts in the film topless, like when Lily reads Ivy's diary and pictures Ivy, or when we see her art teacher's classroom (of course he teaches human form so there's always a different naked woman posing in his classroom), but these scenes are always so brief and random, it seems as if the only purpose they serve is to scare away people who DON'T like erotic movies. So in closing, I can't really recommend this movie to anyone.... the plot wasn't good enough for people who want a movie with plot, it wasn't sexy enough for people who like to watch movies with sex in them.... heck, it didn't even have fun cheesy laughable dialog for people who like to laugh at cheesy movies. Of course, if you're like me and your video store rents old movies for fifty cents and you REALLY feel like renting it.... I guess it beats a hot skewer in the eye.

Rating: Summary: It Ain't Embrace of the Vampire Review: Slow-moving and dull. Milano can act, but she's no good here. Worst of all, this is very un-sexy. Poison Ivy 3 is the best of the trilogy.
Rating: Summary: Unrated "No Nudity" Review: The movie was a good thriller, if you are looking for Nudity, the Unrated version could easily have passed for PG. Get "Embrace of the Vampire" if you want good nude sceens of Alyssa Milano.
Rating: Summary: Awesome Review: The movioe ws great. The acting was pheonomenal and very well played. The parts for each character was picked perfectly. It was the best movie i have seen in a long time. Johnathan Schaech is cast the best part in the entire movie. He is sexy and his acting is fantastic. He is the finest guy to hit the big screen and needs to dye his hair back to the way it was in this movie. If you haven't seen this movie, it's a must.
Rating: Summary: Major rip-off Review: The ONLY, and I do mean ONLY reason I bought this was for the delicious nudity that it supposedly delivers in the form of Alyssa Milano. I don't even care about the plot or whether it's good or bad. I forwarded through the flick to find any glimpse of Alyssa in the nude. Where is it? The 2 or 3 "breast shots" are not even full-view shots. Very disappointing.
Rating: Summary: potrait scene Review: the scene were she possess for the potrai
Rating: Summary: about the movie Poison Ivy II Review: the sex scene and story in this movie is much better than the first poison Ivy and the posion Ivy new seduction productions. What I can say about the three Poison Ivy is that the plot is different in each of them and for the part II, the diary belongs to lily's sister, Ivy but it looks like a coincidence that lily happens to grab her diary at a unknown private house....well it is a story anyway but you can treat it as if this diary belongs to someone else that she reads and later made herself looks 'seductive' that even the painterr himself(lecturer) could even get himself killed as he could not resist the temptation of her beauty when she appears around the last part of the story. A good collection and purchase for this particular movie. I rate the story as 4 stars and the sex scene as 4 stars.
Rating: Summary: Great Alyssa, but rather boring movie Review: This is a chick flick masquerading as an erotic thriller. A rather sappy love story is the center of the movie and there's very little suspense. The only reedeming feature is Alyssa Milano's performance as Lily. She's really good and I must admit her nude scenes are also very sexy. The DVD contains no extras. It would have been interesting to have included interviews and behind the scenes. All in all, a movie for Alyssa Milano fans only.
