Crazy With The Heat Review


Directed by Robert McCallum. Released by Cal Vista International in 1986.

Joanna Storm plays Laura Welton, a computer design specialist, who suddenly becomes stricken with uncontrollable sexual urges as she signs a contract for a business arrangement with mogul Franklin Ford Delmar (played by Frank Hollowell). Delmar coincidentally also happens to run a sex asylum which has utilized the technology that Laura developed in order to control the sexual urges of its inmates. Despite protestations from her husband Bill (played by Eric Edwards), Laura remains at the asylum for several weeks under the care of Ms. Veltine (played by Tantala Ray). Meanwhile, Bill receives sexual coaching on his own outside the asylum from not only Delmar's wife Ramona (played by Tamara Longley) but from Ms. Veltine herself. Finally, Laura is released once she seems to have her urges under control. But does she? Story Grade: B.

This movie was shot on film. Medium Grade: A.

Real locations were used in this production and there were a few outdoor scenes. A billboard for the film "Legend" can be seen in the nighttime driving scene. The reception area for the asylum was a bit weak. Set Design Grade: A-.

The sex was passionate and performers seemed enthusiastic. Joanna Storm's desire was a little over the top, but it played toward the nature of the character. Sexual Performances Grade: A.

Tantala Ray's performance may have been a bit eccentric. Eric Edwards' character was a bit weak. Ron Jeremy's performance as Snakey was a definite comedic highlight. Acting Grade: B+.

The "sex asylum" T-shirts worn by staff members of the facility were extremely hokey and unrealistic. Being an asylum, inmates wearing robes and slippers would have been more suitable than wearing garters, stockings, and high heels. Wardrobe/Make-up Grade: B-.

Lighting quality was good and consistent throughout. Lighting Grade: A.

This film featured an original song at the opening. The score felt appropriate. Sound quality was good and consistent throughout/ Sound Grade: A.

The establishing shot of Delmar's estate was a bit shaky. The special effect "zap" was rather lame and unnecessary, and the use of a cordless phone to control inmates was laughable. Perhaps there wasn't much of a budget for props. Directing Grade: B.

Some of the shots and camera angles seemed to be done to demonstrate a sense of style. There was definite artistic effort here. Artistic Merit Grade: B+.

OVERALL GRADE: B+.
