  • 1 stars out of 5

    Based on a novel by Anne Rice, author of Interview with the Vampire, this unfunny sex comedy is only worth catching if you're sure you can stomach the sight of Dan Aykroyd in bondage gear. Aykroyd and Rosie O'Donnell play a pair of investigators going “undercover“ at an S&M resort run by Dana Delany, while Strictly Ballroom star Paul Mercurio (Where is he now? Hiding from embarrassment, we suspect) wanders around in something resembling a nappy. A career low for Pretty Woman director Garry Marshall and just about everyone else involved.
