“Your
Most Sensual Secret ... Isn't a Secret Anymore.”
Bob (Mike Horner, Oriental Madam) is a lawyer who has the money, unique sexual tastes and his uptight wife Cindy (Krista Lane, Sensations) who won't fulfil any of his needs. Naturally, Bob turns to his favourite hooker (Patti Petite, For Your Thighs Only) to act out his sexual fantasies. Just like his buddy Bob, Ted (Jake Scott, Flesh Tones) also likes to get his kicks away from home and wife Julie (Erica Boyer, Loose Ends). Unlike Bob however, Ted doesn't need to pay for his thrills as he utilises the “administrative skills” of his secretary (Alexis Greco, The Ultimate Lover). After a hard days “work”, Bob and Ted hit up their favourite bar leaving their wives to do some “catching up” back at Bob's place. Whilst at the bar, the conversation unsurprisingly turns to sex. Sex with each other's wives whilst they are asleep (sure would make an interesting episode of Wife Swap!). The morning after their late night antics, the guys decide to hit up their local sex club and unbeknownst to them, they'll be getting a nasty little surprise of their own!

After
the sheer joy that was Too
Naughty to Say No,
I have to say that I was pretty underwhelmed with Unveiled.
Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad film, but I just found it to drag,
especially in the final third. There's a feel of scuzziness about it,
but at the same time there's also a light-hearted and almost
slapstick style of humour. Horner's portrayal of Bob often reminded
me of the characters Will Forte played in Tim
and Eric Awesome Show,
Great Job!
That being said, he was a joy to watch. The stars of the show for me
are Krista Lane and Erica Boyer. What they get up to whilst their
husbands are away was for me, the highlight of the film. That's not
to say there aren't other memorable moments. Another stand out is the
mime sex show performed by Taija Rae (Urban
Heat) and Horner in
his alternate role. A very strange scene indeed. I think the aspect I
enjoyed the most was the style. From the cheesy snyth music credited
to Cinema Symphony's (Droid)
to Steve Aussi's (Sky
Foxes) neon and
pastel set decoration; this is definitely a film for fellow 80's
style enthusiasts! Aside from that, not one of the most interesting
or sensual offerings I have ever seen.
Although
the film lacked for me, Guido's (Fleshdance)
fantastic cinematography looks even better thanks to Vinegar
Syndrome's
restoration and overall presentation. The colours really pop out of
the screen and the sound is of equally high quality. In terms of
extras, there is the original theatrical trailer and a nice video
interview with Mike Horner himself. All in all, not a bad little
release, especially for those who are already a fan.
Unveiled
is available on DVD from Vinegar Syndrome.
