Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

BallWubba Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Python Hyena Summer Lovers (1982): Dir: Randal Kleiser / Cast: Peter Gallagher, Daryl Hannah, Valerie Quennessen, Barbara Rush, Hans van Tongeren: The Greek Islands offer beauty, history and romance but the title of this film is misleading in its stance on open relationships. Peter Gallagher plays Michael Pappas and Daryl Hannah plays his girlfriend Cathy Featherstone. They are college graduates on vacation enjoying the ravishing Greek environment, which also includes nude beaches. Soon Michael meets the beautiful Lina who is doing archaeological work and they share a fling on a nude beach. He confesses to Cathy who, out of frustration and curiosity desires to meet Lina. This results in a three way friendship that examines the reality of open relationships. While the concept opens beautifully the structure is often poorly paced or dull. It is obvious that two will have to leave the one and they sexually link but they form a seemingly innocent little union. Gallagher is a weak lead but perhaps it is because Michael is a pompous ass who comes off as boring and self entitled. Hannah brings a high spirited likeness as Cathy who explores photography. Valerie Quennessen as Lina is stunning with her wide captivating eyes and a flair for fun. Barbara Rush as Cathy's visiting mother is in for a surprise. Open relationships can bring complications that can render no love for anyone's summer. Score: 6 ½ / 10

Mister-UHF Came across this picture on Encore Love while channel surfing to Encore Westerns. I watched it out of curiosity to see if the stories I had heard about it are true.They are. The only good thing about this film is the cinematography of the Greek Isles. Otherwise, it's just a movie version of a pictorial from a men's magazine, although the script (such as it is) has a few touches of Cosmopolitan.You'll love this film if you're into soft core porn, Darryl Hannah, or European brunettes. Otherwise, you'll find it boring or offensive. Note: at last report, 47% of female American college students were infected with human papilloma virus (HPV or genital warts) spread by the promiscuity that this picture celebrates.

Mentat-5 The basic idea is that a committed couple vacation in Greece, and end up involved in a threesome. It is not predicated as a purely sexual thing (although sex plays a role). It is the emotional connection between the three main characters that is central to the plot.For those who don't know what polyamory means, it is basically the ability to love more than one person, and the story does a good job of conveying that concept. Some people may be disappointed that it isn't more fantastic and dwell more on the passion, but the fact that it attends to the difficulties as well as the fantasies is a point in its favor.In this sense, the movie progresses, as each character starts with certain notions that are evaluated and disposed of, or new notions that are adopted. It is, of course, somewhat simplistic, and the characters are a bit two-dimensional (with enough variation to be interesting, but with some elements that seem injected just because).That said, it is a fun movie to watch. The setting is pleasant, and young, fit people are enjoyable to watch, especially when they go skinny-dipping in the Aegean Sea. It isn't something I necessarily want to watch again and again, and the general concept of an emotional threesome may be anathema to some people, but if you are interested in the general concept of polyamory, this might be a good way to get a feel for it.

cstiltner1 I really loved this movie. I watched it by accident one night, I usually only watch horror movies.I felt really good after watching this movie. The characters really get to you and you almost feel the emotions they are having.I thought Darrell Hannah was beautiful as always and the location was beautiful as well.The type of story was offbeat and not the usual boring love story.I also liked the odd sorts of people that show up during the film.It is a great movie to watch on a rainy day or late at night.I would never have thought to watch the movie by the title so do not let the name fool you.It is a movie I can watch over and over.
