Synopsis by Mark Deming
In this sexually-charged thriller, Jacqueline (Shannon Tweed) is a beautiful but unscrupulous woman who supports herself by taking advantage of older men with plenty of money. Not long after Jacqueline sinks her hooks into wealthy Benjamin Alcott, the elderly gentleman turns up dead, and his daughter Candice (Danielle Ciardi) and her lover Steve (Jim Richer) discover that Jacqueline has run off with a quarter-million dollars that was supposed to be deposited into the accounts of Allcot's charitable trust. Candice and Steve are understandably angry about this development, and they formulate a scheme to recover the money and put Jacqueline out of business.
