Dangerous Delusions - vs - Censorship.,
By Thy_Zombie! (Sydney, AUSTRALIA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Book of Revelation (DVD)
As my Review Title would suggest, I'm torn between the comments in the reviews that currently exist.
The "Dangerous Delusions" review points out, this story is based around the abduction of a male dancer by three hooded/masked women. Yes, he "becomes a live sexual toy gratifying three women", however, the gratification is against his will and any attempt to deny their sexual demands are met with the threat of hobbling his ankles. And, as the story unfolds, we find that they also abducted this man in particular because they found his dancing to be beautiful, hence, they also 'request' that he puts on a dance performance for them. What happens next, is accurately reviewed in the second paragraph of "Dangerous Delusions". The "Censorship" review is 100% correct when it comes down to, exactly that, the censorship of a supposed NR (Not Rated/Unrated) DVD title. I too was somewhat sold on this rating. Only to discover that it was horribly censored when it came to human genitalia scenes in this movie. Whether this has anything to do with the Region 8 Code (International venues such as aircraft, cruise ships, etc.), I don't know? Certainly, I do caution anyone who wants to purchase this product based on the somewhat false "Product Details" which stated the "Rating" as being "Unrated". It may be UNRATED but it certainly is heavily CENSORED!!! As for my rating, I would have given this DVD a 4/5 stars based on the content evaluation of this title. The misleading product details deserves a 1/5 star rating because it did ruin the flow of the content. Overall, I had to meet somewhere in between, rating this 3/5. - TZ!

Censorship,
By
This review is from: The Book of Revelation (DVD)
I rented this DVD from Netflix, and had high hopes for it. It was rated NR and would contain graphic sex scenes ala Shortbus and 9 Songs, however I was horrified to see this little grey circle censoring any naughty stuff. This completely ruined the viewing experience for me, and I would caution anyone renting or purchasing this DVD to make sure they get an uncensored copy.

Strange psychological thriller,
By
This review is from: The Book of Revelation [ NON-USA FORMAT, PAL, Reg.4 Import - Australia ] (DVD)
Strange introspective study, full of Bergman references. Australian dancer goes missing for 12 days then returns, disturbed. Films that rely heavily on imagery are rarely very successful and this is no exception, though it is refreshing to see a new director who is not afraid to try a new approach. Tom Long is exceptional as the lead and the dance sequences are both very impressive and perturbing. The plot is too diffuse and fantasy-laden, however, to make a real impression. Has been tagged as a gay movie, which is absurd, though there is a very strong and at times expicit sexual element. Possible interpretation: thoughts of death destroy sexual desire ? Curiosity value.

This review is from: Book of Revelation (Amazon Instant Video)
This review is for the Amazon VOD rental of this film. This is a good erotic
thriller import from Australia. Tom Long plays a male dancer kidnapped and used for sexual purposes by three women. They dump him after having their way with him and he spends the rest of the film trying to find them. The film is well acted but does have the drawback in that nothing is resolved by the film's end.

Dangerous Delusions,
This review is from: The Book of Revelation (DVD)
In the broad daylight, in a heart of the City of Melbourne, Australia, a male dancer had been abducted to become a live sexual toy gratifying three women.
Very lucky to stay alive (see Boy Meets Girl [Region 2], for instance), he engages in a rampage of sex with strangers, trying to find out mysterious she-rapists by body-marks noticed on face-covered sexual predators, and this paranoic investigating leads to pitiful results. Rather philosophical than entertaining movie with some homoerotic trend, attracting to Australia a particular segment of hoping tourists, perhaps.

Poorly written and amateurishly directed. It wasn't as good as a thrown-together t.v. movie. Appears actors capable of better performance if given the chance.
