  Summary  
     
 

The new fragrance 'Desire' achieves sad fame when a serial killer spills it over each of his victims. Grace Lantel (D. Shelton), head of the company, is worried about her image and gets a female ex-cop (Kate Hodge) on the case to investigate. One of her prime suspects is Gordon Lewis (Mart), ex-lover and ex-employee of Lantel, who claims to have invented the new perfume. In true Hollywood style cop falls in love with suspect and that's where the complications begin.

 
     
  Comment  
     
 

A very average thriller with a rather lame and constructed end. You find probably every cliché of the thriller genre in this film. Ex-cop with a shooting accident trauma, suspect who's a bit strange (because of his sad youth) but of course innocent, an evil lesbian ... it's all there. But Mart does his best in his lead part ... and he looks particularly gorgeous! Good to watch on a rainy afternoon, no wonder the film went straight on video! (Very confusingly there seems to be a second, different version of this film which is listed in some film guides as 'romantic drama', if you know more about this, please get in touch!)
