This almost made it to being the picture it wanted to be. It was sooo close. They had a bigger budget and location shots. Yes! They weren't shooting at friends and families places anymore. They had actual sets. Most the actors where great as well. They did their parts the best they can. We even get a burlesque song and dance act from Ginger, swathed in blue feathers. We also have, of course, tons of boobies and bondage. So, you might be asking yourself "If all this is so good, why didn't it make the cut in what it was supposed to be? A good, cheesy flick?" Well I'll tell you.
I think with the success of Abductors, Don Swain thought he was really hot shit and decided to write the scripts on his own again. Big no-no Don. Last time he wrote the script...he sucked (See Ginger). He doesn't understand pacing. He wants everything all at once and that really hurt the story. The places the story got weak, it was filled with an explosion or a half hearted action fight sequence. Would it have hurt Swain if he took the extra money he pocketed and hired a fight choreographer. It just turns into a flashier version of the same crap we saw with the first movie. there should be no excuse for it.
Just like the last two in the trilogy, the visuals on the DVD are VHS quality with better audio then normal. The extras are also slim as usual. You get the normal offerings as well as another candid shoot of Ms. Caffaro as well as a downloadable calender. If you really want to get the whole trilogy for completion sake, that's cool. If you're buying individual copies, just go for Abductors.
Two stars. A weak two stars.
Two stars.
