XXX: Dirty Eyes

Samantha "Sam" Sharpe
Created by Thomas K. Nash

In WICKED TEMPTATIONS, a straight-to-video soft-core "erotoc thriller," a beautiful and ambitious-- but lonely -- private eye, SAMANTHA "SAM" SHARPE (played by porn queen Scarlet Johansing) is hired to track down a printing mogul's missing trophy wife. Along the way she finds sex, deceit, sex, murder and sex. man, there's a lot of sex in this one -- it seems like there's a (simulated) sex scene about every five minutes or so. And even more amazing is that, in a refreshing change for this sort of flick, the detective for once isn't a participant in every sex scene -- Sam really only gets her man in the end.

Actually, it would have been interesting to scrap all the heavy breathing and grunting, and see this film re-done as a more-or-less straight P.I. flick -- Sam is actually a pretty appealling detective. Yeah, yeah, she's pretty easy on the eyes, and yes, I looked when she finally dropped trou, but she's also got a little more grit to her than usual. She's got a rather curt, no-nonsense approach to business, and she makes no attempt to hide her ambitions -- although she's working out of her apartment when we first meet her, she makes no bones about hoping to milk the case for enough to finally get her own office.
