A totally lamentable mess of a film, 'starring' the untalented Liz Hurley in a plot which was something to do with drugs. I think.What really got me about this turkey was the calibre of the actors who were somehow persuaded to appear in it: Joss Ackland! Claire Bloom! Jeremy Brett, for god's sake (in his final film appearance as he died soon after). Alan Freeman (no, wait, he probably belongs here as an overaged daft DJ).The worst thing about it is that you remember certain bits of awfulness for ages and ages afterwards. Trust me, you really don't want to see Ackland in sexy scenes. You don't. And that bit with Hurley and Brett is just sooo pathetic. Tut. Avoid this load of rubbish at all costs.

Liz hurley 5/10... mostly for her bod joss ackland 8/10 ... Good acting everyone else ... pretty forgettable... Strange twisted plot to emphasise the "decadence" of the upper class .. who even despise the QUEEN!. Yes, cockneys, toffs and a bit of rough... Burke and Hare ... semi-gay drug lords... RIGHTEOUS justice (no mention of Alan titchmarsh tho). It's all here with colorful red buses and lovely old country houses. Shame about the plot and the acting. Erotic? no!

You keep thinking that the cliches will stop, that someone will show some emotion, that an English word besides 'f...k' will be used to describe something.....but no, no, NO!! You are condemning yourself to a monumental waste of time if you think things will get any better.The plot is so confusing, and then it becomes not even worth the bother to sort out. Maybe Elisabeth Hurley was playing a stony-faced, no-emotion, no-care druggy; or maybe....she CAN'T ACT!!! Whichever, even the coupling scenes (it would be an insult to call them 'love scenes') are amateurish. You don't even care about the torture scenes. Glad I couldn't recognize Claire Bloom...she was probably glad, herself.The lighting is haphazard, the dialogue hardly comprehendible. I wasted $10 on this dog....mad, it was not. Boring, it most definitely was.

This film is worth seeing simply for its monumental crapness. In the first half an hour alone countless unsympathetic characters are introduced, some of whom proceed to perform random and inexplicable actions throughout. The plot is so disjointed and badly conceived, it requires considerable effort to maintain any idea of what's going on. Not that there's any reason to do so. Instead, viewers should marvel at some appallingly bad dialogue, a staggeringly inept piece of acting from Liz Hurley, and one of the most incomprehensible plotlines I've ever come across in a film. Worth watching, simply because it is SO bad.
