In short, don't bother.
An absurdly overrated film plagued by very wooden acting and a poor script. Low budget isn't really any excuse for a poorly developed story and just a complete lack of effort on the part of the film makers.
This is supposed to be an erotic horror and yet any form of tension or horror was completely removed by the the directors hammy approach and the actors total lack of involvement. The evil parasite looks more like an animated turd than a thing of horror and revulsion. Any ounce of eroticism is removed by the fact that most of the cast is really quite ugly and most of the scenes were just in very bad taste.
In short a very poor film.
