Review

The Last Seduction II (1999) -- The very name has a built-in problem, and The Last Seduction should have been the last, Last Seduction. It starts off where the original ended. They made several changes. Linda Fiorentino was replaced by Joan Severance, they moved the location to Spain, and turned her marks into clearly evil people, I suppose to make it easier to root for her. The father of the man she framed in part one hires a detective, Murphy, to track her down and bring her back. In the one good choice in the film, Murphy is also a woman, and every bit as ruthless as Severance.

Severance ends up going after a sleazy bar owner/phone sex impresario by hacking his auto-billing software, and depositing some of his revenue in her account. Meanwhile, Murphy is closing in. Of course, it ends leaving room for a sequel, but one that I really hope nobody attempts.

There is one scene I admit to having enjoyed. Another sleazy bar owner/drug dealer is putting heavy moves on the detective, and tries to get her to join him snorting some nose candy. He places the glass straw in his nose, and she shoves his head into the table, driving it well into his head, and breaking his nose. Other than that brief scene, it was a total snooze-feste. D.

Nudity Report: Severance is seen in bra and panties, and wakes up nude.

IMDb Summary: IMDb readers say 3.7 of 10.
