The Kari Wührer fans should rejoice also—as she is the real star of Sensation (1995).Being one of those fans myself,I can testify that Sensation was a treat.On the scale of the straight-to-video 'sexploitation movies,this one gets a 7 ½ .(It is useless to try rating these movies in an artistic context ;so,we apply a pragmatic rating, independent of those used for other classes of films.)It's pretty well paced. My only objection is against Roberts' stupid apparitions as a feline sexy macho—they did not work.A very interesting woman is Mrs. Stansfield as "Paula"–her jugs are visible a couple of times,as Sensation (1995) does something for showcasing her charms also.The film is the regular cocktail of soft-core eroticism+thriller+ mentally ill characters, psychiatric undertows and undercurrents+supernatural.The two actresses that show their tits are fine.Now,after so many years,this movie looks like a B classic.It has a fine pace and some scenes are pretty suspenseful in a conventional way—those who ought to.It offers what it promises.Some suspense,a few pairs of jugs,some suspense, bizarre people,etc..Sensation (1995) belongs to the era that preceded Kari Wührer's mainstream breakthrough.But she continued to be a B movie cult actress even after that.

B-movie stars Roberts and Wuhrer are appropriately cast in this slick B-flick which tells of a young woman who has psychometric visions in which she sees her college professor as a sex crazed murderer. As one might expect, Wuhrer vamps it up showing off oodles of skin while Roberts teeters between legit and psycho in an attempt to hold audience interest in the absence of a real story. Titillation and psychobabble are the hallmarks of this lame hodge-podge of murder, sex, and the paranormal. Okay for adult couch potatoes in the mood for a sexsational no brainer. (C-)

I think that this is a very icky movie. Too much flesh and not enough acting. Another reviewer thought Kari Wuhrer did a good acting job...um, no. It was good to begin with, and then in the end she turned into B-movie actress of the year. Plus the movie makes no sense. And what is with the ceiling fans? Really, skip this one if you are considering it.

Despite a promising start and an intriguing premise, this film falls apart, and winds up being little more than a fairly routine and predictable thriller. Kari Wuhrer does a good job as the lead, and Roberts and Perlman are solid as usual, but all the good ideas in this film were used up in the first half-hour. The killer seemed obvious to me for much of the film, and things were further hindered by the needless character that was played by Ed Begley, Jr. Considering how impressive the opening was, this turned out to be quite the disappointment.
