A motley assortment of people go to a futuristic luxury resort in order to either surmount their sexual problems or indulge in their most deep-seated carnal whims and desires. Director Anthony Spinelli, who also co-wrote the intricate and involving script with Dean Rogers, uses the inspired premise to explore in an intelligent and provocative manner the many different facets of both human nature and human sexuality. Moreover, Spinelli manages to sprinkle plenty of touching and humorous moments amidst all the expected arousing sensual activities. The sound acting from a tip-top all-star cast of porn regulars gives this picture a substantial lift: The always alluring and elegant Annette Haven as aloof lesbian Dale, Leslie Bovee as sweet artist Joan, Kay Parker as the frustrated Millicent, John Leslie as arrogant racist jerk Roger, Jack Wright as the wimpy Ralph, Desiree West as the saucy and seductive Jill (the scenes with West getting it on with Leslie are an absolute riot -- and scorching hot, too!), Amber Hunt as the luscious Linda, Abigail Clayton as the enticing Marian, Joey Silvera as brutish rough-trade stud Phil, and, in an especially moving turn, Sharon Thorpe as the painfully timid and lonely Lisa. Johnnie Keyes makes a memorable guest appearance reprising his famous role from "Behind the Green Door." Kudos are also in order for Robert Marksman's glossy cinematography, Berry Lipman's funky, yet harmonic score, and the right-on groovy theme song. Essential viewing for aficionados of Golden Age adult cinema fare.
