Putrid is the only word for this movie


Except for Pia Zadora, I can't believe that they got the other actors to accept parts, Stacy Keach, Orson Welles, Edward Albert, Stuart Whitman, Lois Nettleton - all good actors who must have been holding their noses when they were off camera.

Truly, this movie is a piece of trash. Yeah, I've seen worse, sure. Note to other members: just because you've seen something worse, that doesn't mean it's a good movie.

It wasn't good to begin with, but it just went downhill after Jess finds out he's not Katy's father and runs off to screw up her marriage.

I guess the author/screenwriters/whoever decided that it might be less awful if Katy calls him "Jess" throughout the entire thing? Hardly. This movie is little more than someone trying to make a "real story" out of an incest fantasy.
