Summary: Angie Everhart
Review: Angie Everhart's combination of tease and delivery two or three times made this movie worth the extra cost and wait.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Not as bad as Matrix: Revolutions, but close
Review: At what point, does bad filmmaking become criminal? Wherever that line is, it was surely crossed with Sexual Predator, the film industry's equivalent to a lanced boil. This "film" pairs Richard Grieco and Angie Everhart both doing their best to live up to the dynamic duo of Shannon Tweed and Andrew Stevens and both failing miserably. The plot revolves around a probation officer (The Swimsuit Model) and one of her assigned offenders (The 21 Jumpstreeter). It tackles such moral quandaries as; Should a sexually traumatized person be in charge of the parole of a man who killed their best friend through severe sexual trauma? Tough philosophical questions like these abound in the "film" directed by Robert Angelo. Frankly it's surprising that the "film" has credits at all. One can only speculate blackmail or some equally heinous maneuver led those participating to attach their names to this debacle. The "film" is of course directed at the 14-17 year-old male audience with access to Cinemax. The "film" though, fails to titillate although extremely stupid members of the target audience might be able to disengage from the horror that is the rest of the film and focus on only the sex scenes. I detracted one star each for the acting, directing, production, script, sound, cinematography, makeup, score and casting. I gave back five stars either; hoping that the starring freckled beauty would go on a date with me, or because Amazon does not allow for reviews lower than 1 star. I recommend 4-7 years in Marion for all key members of the "film"making team.

Summary: Absolutely nice
Review: Here in EUrope is already out, since 5 days. Is a nice moovie compared to the rest of the moies where she played. I have lot from them, where she's a star, but in this one (even if she's finally naked...) she is great. The characters she play is OK, the rest of the cast is OK. There are sex scenes absolutely nice, and she look excellent.... Hope for her is the first step for a series of decent movies now.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Sexy, Trashy Erotic Thriller!
Review: I caught this movie at 1 am with my boyfriend. This sexy, erotic and trashy thriller was lots of fun and got us totally hot! There were enough twists and turns to keep us interested - and Grieco and Everhart have mad chemistry! Recommended for mindless fun!

Summary: Boring
Review: The movie is very boring. They obviously thought it's enough to run around naked all the time, but the movie - in my view - is absolutely uninteresting. Richard Grieco somehow doesn't look very awake and Angie Everhart probably is a better model than an actress.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Lousy acting, but Grieco's a real hunk!
Review: The plot has definate potential, but the movie was unfortunately ruined by poor acting from both stars, neither of whom seemed capable of reading their lines with any emotion at all. The ninety minutes I spent watching this film was saved from being a total waste only by the sight of Richard Grieco, however -- his acting talents might be minimal, but his sex appeal kept me glued to the screen. And male viewers will be equally appreciative of Angie Everhart's nude scenes. All in all, I wouldn't recommend this movie.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: An Erotic Thriller Like.. All Others!
Review: The world of erotic thrillers is a very interesting one indeed, and it is moviemaking like no other.
It seems that there are two or three templates that all directors religiously follow, be it the plot, or the sex scenes (their number, variations and style).As the cliche goes, watch one erotic thriller and you watch them all, but as we all know this is not the case, for no matter how lame or repetitive the formula is, it is a huge hundreds of million dollars market that is specifically aimed at people who do not watch hardcore (or pretend not to) but who at the same time want a bit of sauce with the excitement of a thriller.
In all erotic thrillers you will always find the following,
1-There is always a psycho male or female, either bent on revenge for some misdeed that happened when they were too young to remember, or an obsessive person who either likes to watch people getting it on ,or is scheming to get richer and richer and has no qualms about sleeping with lots of people (before killing them that is) to achieve his/her goal.
2-The man is usually a high flying businessman, played almost always by an actor who looks more like a freelance stripper than a dealmaker, while the woman is 6 feet tall, with looks, body and health that would suggest catwalk rather than taking care of the little offsprings.
3-Most women who play the lead in erotic thrillers are indeed either veterans of the catwalks..(Probably thinking it is a good move into Hollywood that might one day lead to Oscars rehearsals,Angie Everhart,Amber Smith,Joan Severance...),or graduates of the soft core/magazine industry (Jacqueline Lovell, The Tweeds,Julie Strain....)
4-The plot is usually so lame and predictable, invariably the fast forward function is never used as much as for these films.Yet it is a good excuse to watch them, exactly like claiming to buy Playboy for the interviews and articles, a story in erotic thrillers can be an excuse for watching the numerous sex scenes.The acting is mostly from the 'overacting that flows from your ears' school of acting, while the directors have usually an ego the size of Texas (a film by so and so is usually the first to appear on the credits) without the talent to match .
5-The sex scenes all look the same no matter how many films you watch, as if all erotic thriller directors have a sort of agreement between themselves to shun any originality.The same pans,close ups,cuts,positions, and camembert tunes, with the ubiquitious girl-girl scene.It always amazes me how people in erotic thrillers and at the very first touch are consumed by an incredible passion and unbearable ecstacy,and it makes me wonder what did they have for dinner? (whatever it is , I am ordering some right now!), but since the 'action' only lasts for ten or fifteen seconds at most, I will think twice before ordering anything.
So, Sexual Predator has all these elements, and of course it also has the incredibly gorgeous and sexy Angie Everhart who is a delight to watch, with or without her clothes,and is worth buying this DVD for.
If you are a fan of erotic thrillers, then Sexual Predator will not certainly not disappoint, providing lame acting, but beautiful women.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Angie's hot, but not worth buying
Review: This is a barebones DVD, 90 minutes long, that reminds me of other erotic thrillers like Basic Instinct (with Sharon Stone) or Body of Evidence (with Madonna). Here, we get to see Angie Everhart act as a sex freak, and she has two really nice love scenes where she bares all, each scene lasting about a minute each.

Richard Grieco does an OK job, but at certain points, he does seem like he's sleepwalking through this role. It's amazing how badly his TV/movie career has stumbled to be starring in direct-to-video movies like this one.

This DVD is indeed barebones, not even a theatrical trailer or cast filmography. Just audio, subtitles, and chapter selection.

This DVD's worth a rental just to see Angie in the buff, as well as a few other women, but otherwise, it's not worth buying.
