Boring. Even for fans of Zalman King's earlier works, this film might be hard to swallow. You have the usual amount of gratuitous sex and nudity, but it's cobbled together behind a strange story of a young girl's druglord family, who grows up to be a blind, pirate radio hostess, telling stories about sex and intrigue. However, logic holes abound.
For one thing, her story-telling follows a beatnik rhythm that, without the video portion, would not make much sense so the only people listening would be insomniacs or those infatuated with her voice.
Also, scenes flash and scream, reminiscent of X-Files or Millennium, adding a very unsettling quality to the imagery. This is a total turn-off because you think less about whether a couple would get together, but whether they would be hideously murdered somehow.
The stories don't really follow each other and just end and begin suddenly, with each lasting maybe 12 minutes or so.
Eric Clapton is known as "slow hands", and Zalman King could be called that as well, except for one important point: Eric Clapton writes good songs.
