I haven't read the original Anne Rice book, and now I really want to compare them. There is absolutely no way that it's this wacky and comedic.

I was shocked by how much I was laughing during this movie. This wasn't a pity laugh, but actual hysterical laughter at certain points. There is great comedic timing present in this movie, particularly with the duel dynamics between Dan Aykroyd and Rosie O'Donnell. They should have done more movies together, because their chemistry was very fun to watch. Aykroyd plays up his awkwardness to an appealing extreme, and Rosie O'Donnell is genuinely fun to watch in this; fuck you, I said it. I wish I cared more for the antagonists, as I didn't find them too appealing.
The dynamic between Elliot and Lisa has sprinklings of neat ideas. Despite how uncomfortable (and not in a good way) the opening scene is, there are fun psychological complexities to them, and other characters on the island. The flashback sequences were nice additions and added a level of depth I wasn't expecting.

My biggest complaints with this movie are that there are significant chunks of the movie that lose my interest since nothing much is happening, but they are occasionally spruced up by pretty titillating moments. I also felt that, while the comedic elements are great, they could have been balanced better with the other characters' traumatic pasts.

If you can find a copy of this, since it appears they are trying to burn every copy of this movie, I would totally watch it. It's a mess, but it has a weirdly sharp comedic edge that makes it worth seeking out.

- DON'T watch this. you won't like it. It’s for degenerate like myself.
- why were each chosen song so good?
- Putting Sadeness by Enigma was yum yum
- if only the majority of sub men were that built and handsome...
- mc in the beginning: i don't want to show myself.
literally a minute after: shaking his booty cheeks willingly
- the island.. i love to see beautiful ppl being beautiful omg

( if someone knows where i can find the "Please Me" song written by James Patrick Dunne and performed by Kristina Nichols please tell me. it's literally nowhere😭)

very interesting choice to cast 2 people who look like they have never had sex in their lives as the leads of a bdsm-esque film. loveee rosie o'donnell and iman in this, they shouldve lezzed out. in general it is too heteronormative, thought it would be a bit more interesting because its an anne rice adaptation but not really, not at all actually. im so happy im gonna go to hell just because im going to be able to talk with anne rice there, this film will hit top 41 in my endless list of things i wanna talk with her.
