Lustful Addiction (2003 Video)
1/10
Disgustful Addition.....
10 September 2011
... to anyone's viewed video library (actual, or simply experienced). Not because of the subject matter, or the terribly unconvincing simulated sex (which is one of the only reasons anyone might be interested in this straight to video mess), or even the terrible acting. The real reason you'll experience that feeling of disgust will surely be if you attempt to sit through the entirety of it. Watching this rather sad example of how to waste an opportunity will be a greater test of the will than a junkie's first time going cold turkey.

Unlike many drug films that escalate to the point of feeling like a wild roller coaster ride into oblivion, this one moves with the agility of a snail carrying a load of bricks on its back.

It starts out well enough, for an obviously "bottom basement," financed straight to "D" grade video, that it is. The initial plot device is established, some sex is simulated (not very convincingly though) and the main character shows off her attractive enough body, fully. However everything up until the next "physical encounter" can be likened to a painful and tediously agonizing torture.

The end is predictable, the sex is painfully boring (the beginning is as good as it gets, no matter what you think will happen, or what actually does later) and excruciating long in coming and even when it does get around to what can be one of the only points of this film, its ridiculously uneventful.

Think of the scene where they detoxed Bela Lugosi, in the film Ed Wood and know that that will probably be what is playing in your head as you try to sit through this video. If this film was a drug it would be about as effective as talcum powder. Though at least with THAT, you might get a kick out of it.
