    One of the funniest bad movies ever made. Virginal heiress Bo Derek goes to the Sahara desert and Spain in search of pure sexual ecstasy, and ends up making love with a sheik and a bullfighter. Set in the 1920s for no apparent reason, director John Derek's anti-erotic valentine to his wife is packed with hilariously awful encounters that are further undermined by insipid dialogue. See Bo ride a horse naked! See Bo writhe passionately in front of a red neon sign spelling out the film's title! See Bo covered in honey and licked clean in slow motion! See how badly a film goes wrong when a besotted husband thinks the world is ready for a Bo-peep tribute to a wife who may have a great body, but is one lousy actress! Tasteless, tortuous and terrifically trashy.

    The most ridiculous film ever!

    John Derek must have been besotted with Bo Derek when this film was made: let's get real... Bo Derek DOES NOT look like a blushing virginal school girl in this film (not even her acting can pull it off)she is far too old. Even the story is ludicrous: a rich sex hungry school girl prancing around the world looking for someone to deflower her?!Don't watch this nonsense of a film. Even the sex scenes are like watching paint dry!

    And while Bo Derek is considered to be real eye candy for some, I really struggle to see what all fuss was about!
