Bordello

Felecia is cast as an Oriental madam of a posh bordello/casino in this quite limited Vivid release. Toni English later proved to be a fine storyteller at Adam & Eve (see: the great "Naked Hollywood" feature series), but is content with innuendo here instead of action.

Steven St. Croix is hammy as the villain, quick to pull his gun on people, and mean as he threatens to take over the place and lord it over her. Colt Steele is the nominal hero, his acting boring as usual, just an attractive shirt ad hunk. In flashback, Nick East plays the hapless gambler. Problem here, with blame falling on producer-director English and hack writer Cash Markman. The mystery of the Far East and Felecia's enigmatic performance putting me in the mind of one of Orson Welles' "legendary" movie plots, like "The Immortal Story" of "Lady from Shanghai", but alas this is a boring movie, without a satisfying ending, and just lots of sex scenes presenting Felecia's prostitutes in action.
