A married jewel trader is seduced by a beautiful woman while on a business trip. Upon returning home, he receives a video tape in the mail of his tryst and a threat to ruin his marriage if he doesn't turn a shipment of diamonds over to the woman.
It premiered in Japan on April 5, 1997 and in the US as part of the 1997 Houston Film Festival[1] The feature was released on VHS by Artisan Entertainment on June 15, 1999.
Joe Leydon, of Variety, said there's a certain novelty to seeing Young cast against type and Cattrall is good for a few laughs as she throws herself into her devious character with lip-smacking, dirty-mouthed relish.[2]
