“They’re dying to play with you.”
WILD THINGS is a film to avoid. It is billed as one of the most sexually tantalizing rated “R” films in recent times. This is a film on par with BASIC INSTINCT of several years ago (starring Sharon Stone and involving extreme nudity and sexual situations).
ScreenIt reported:
“Sexual material, profanity, and violence highlight what most parents (and other concerned viewers) will probably find objectionable in this film. Several graphic sexual encounters show movement and nudity, and one involves a three-way sex scene (one guy and two women) that also leads into some lesbian behavior (that continues as kissing in a following scene). Beyond the nudity that occurs in those, there’s non-sexual, full frontal male nudity as well as plenty of shots of young, shapely women in tight or wet clothing.
Profanity is extreme…”
We do not have a full review of WILD THINGS, because we did not want to subject any of our volunteer Christian reviewers to this highly offensive and pornographic film. Though the plot/story-line may be of interest, this one is apparently worth avoiding due to the intense sexual scenes.
