Other Woman, The (1992)

One of the great erotic thrillers of the 1990's is among Jag Mundhra's best work. This 1992 soft-core classic,which went straight to video and cable when it was released,concerns a fairly interesting plot has actress Lee Ann Beaman in the lead role as an journalist trying to uncover something big against the mob and starts discovering information about her and her husband's lover(Jenna Persaud). Not only does she discover information about her husband's lover,but discovers her own past as a teenager that has put a strain on her marriage. For readers of Penthouse magazine who remembers centerfold Jenna Persaud,a dark beauty of Middle Eastern decent brought a welcome splash of color to that magazine's pages in several layouts during the 1980's and early 1990's. There are two versions of this movie that are around and its only available through VHS. This is a crying shame that this movie is not even available on DVD,but it needs to be. There is the "R" rated version,and there is the "Unrated" version. The scene where the two female leads get together is one of the steamiest lesbian love scenes ever filmed and among the best of its kind of its genre(and its only available in the "Unrated" version,along with the other lesbian sex scene where Lee Ann Beaman's character as a teenager catches her own mom making out with her lover which is artisty within itself). While the "R' rated version(which was shown once during Cinemax's Friday After Dark catalog of erotic films of the 1980's and 1990's)runs a mere 92 minutes,its best to get if it is available the "Unrated" version which has extended scenes that are not included in the "R" rated version. A must see,if you want to see two of the prettiest "B" movie girls of the 1990's together in one picture that also stars Sam Jones(Flash Gordon), Adrian Zmed(T.J. Hooker Fame),and Bill Bradshaw
