I watched 'Escort 3' & 'Victim of Desire' back to back as a Julie Strain double feature. While both titles don't feature her front and center the latter was at least a sufficient T&A flick from director Jim Wynorski. This is a cheap mess that all faces involved should be embarrassed about. Threadbare story, sad mystery, daft acting and even the female nudity on hand doesn't somewhat save it.
The murder of a woman (Jennifer Burton) looks to be tied to intimate business partner Corrigan (Tim Abell). Disillusioned LAPD Lt. Crank (Ross Hagen) investigates leading to the woman's past of being a paid escort who formerly worked for Cassandra (Tane McClure). She leads him to a stripper named Debbie (Strain) who fills in more info. It seems everyone knew Corrigan, but every time Crank gets one step closer someone dies. Who's behind it all and why?
The real killer here is how the majority of the sex & nudity are stolen from other movies. Julie Strain appear topless then a reused sex scene. Tane McClure never gets naked, reused sex scene with Abell. Griffin Drew has a girl/girl with Yvette McClendon (who has her own legit sex scene) and a reused scene. Burton's appearance is all taken from other movies. Ditto Gabriella Hall, Landon Hall and a few other ladies. It's nuts.
'Escort 3' is the pits. Are we even supposedly to like Lt. Crank? He drinks excessively & spies on two naked vice cops (Kim Dawson & Sam Phillips) with a hidden camera. I've now seen the same car fly off road and blow up in three flicks Wynorski was involved in too. Many better options out there so don't bother with this one.
