Adultery (1990)
"Adultery" (1990) presents an intriguing take on adult film tropes through the screenplay of Michael Ellis, who is typically known for his high-quality work. The director, Spinelli, manages to elevate the content despite its clichés. The film revolves around Marc Wallice, who plays a best friend to medical student Scott Irish, returning home for a holiday. Wallice expresses his infatuation with Irish's mother, Ona Zee, which leads to a series of events that blur the lines between fantasy and reality. Throughout the film, Wallice assists Irish in pursuing various encounters, including an interaction with Sharon Kane, while simultaneously pursuing his own desires. The sex scenes vary in intensity, but Wallice delivers a noteworthy performance as the somewhat troubled friend. Spinelli's directorial style, characterized by fluid camera work, enhances the viewing experience. Although it may not be Spinelli's finest work, it surpasses the average standards of the industry. The film includes explicit scenes featuring various actors, including Ona Zee, Cheri Taylor, Sharon Kane, Nina Hartley, Mike Horner, and Scott Irish. Released by CDI Home Video, the film has a resolution of 576x432 and showcases a cover featuring Cheri Taylor to attract retailers' attention.
