This is an excellent adult film, and one of Jerry Butler's best.

Due to some scenes that were filmed in the uncut version, The film is now edited with just hardcore sex scenes, I believe the full uncut version to the film can only be found used. It is in three versions by VCA Pictures. A Cable Version, The Hardcore Version with five scenes missing, and the most popular full uncut version that has every scene intact. In my opinion, the film is not the same unless you see the full uncut version.
