A super-production that has fallen into obscurity (perhaps due to its pretentious script), "The Passion" is something of a Faust tale, with a very flamboyant Sean Michaels playing Caliban, a grifter who behaves as if he were the devil. He's tempting Mark Davis, bribing him with women and the prospect of unbelievable wealth, as Davis has signed up for a year's separation from his wife Kylie Ireland, during which he'll have to make a big decision.
Director Phil M. Noir has fun with his screenplay, which is too facetious to make this a classic, but ten quality sex scenes along the way make the movie easy to watch. Lavish settings including limos, a helicopter sex scene (in which Sean pilots while being serviced by his wife Dominique Simone) and a glamorous masqued ball, deliver Porno Chic quality.
Kylie's story is more cryptic and aimless but fun as she beds pompous Steve Drake but complains that he's stolen her treasured necklace in a subplot that's never resolved. TIffany Million is a scene-stealer as a sexy and wealthy woman who protects Kylie from Drake and seduces her, later giving Sean a most impressive deepthroat session.
A big budget went into staging this movie, but the failure to make the story amount to anything is disappointing. Noir is more interested in trivial matters, like taking a quote from the Stones' "Sympathy for the Devil" into the dialogue for Sean and Dominique.
