Busty Twins (4 Stars)

This is an erotic thriller made by Jim Wynorski in 2005. Its original title was "Lust Connection" when it was shown on television, but this was later changed to "Busty Twins".

Rick Taylor is an Internet millionaire who lives with his wife Susan in a beautiful remote house on a hill. It's the same house used in "The Witches of Breastwick", but who's complaining? If a house looks good enough it can be used in all of Big Jim's films. Rick and Susan seem to be happy together, since the opening scene shows them having sex in the hot tub on the balcony. In the next scene Susan is alone in the tub, and we see someone strangling her. We don't see the assailant clearly, but it's obviously a woman.

Rick calls the police, and the masterful Jay Richardson takes over the case as Detective Blake. He immediately assumes that Rick is the murderer. Rick has no alibi and he seems to be hiding something. Susan's twin sister Jenny comes to visit – she's identical except for the hair colour – and offers to tell the police that he was with her at the time of the murder. Rick refuses the offer, preferring to tell the truth. But he really is hiding something that he doesn't want to tell the police. He confides in Jenny.

For the last year Rick has been involved in Internet affairs. Most of them were purely online affairs in which he watched the girls dancing or stripping, but there were six girls that he actually met. I admit, all the girls that he met were attractive, but why would a man with a wife like Susan (played by Glori-Anne Gilbert) want to go astray? He had the perfect wife.

Rick becomes certain that one of these six girls is the killer. He discusses them with Jenny, and we see flashbacks of his sexual encounters with them.

So one of Rick's online dates was Julie K. Smith? Wow! She might tempt me. But with a wife like Glori-Anne Gilbert I would never have started Internet dating in the first place.

This is a decent quality thriller, though it has nothing in the plot to lift it above other films in the genre. Its strength is in the beautiful actresses, all of whom have sex with Rick, played by Frank Harper. He  must have been the luckiest and most frustrated man on the planet at the same time. There are seven women who are shown having sex with him in the film, but because the film is a softcore production the sex isn't genuine; all he had was seven gorgeous actresses taking turns rubbing their bodies against him. By the end of the film he must have been screaming with agony.

Glori-Anne Gilbert is a beautiful woman. I've seen her in a few films directed by Jim Wynorski, but I know nothing about her besides her IMDB profile. She offered her services mowing lawns in her bikini to raise money for her first car. I would have hired her. I hated mowing the lawn in my teens and early twenties. After that I didn't have a house with a lawn until I was 45, and the trouble started again. I made feeble attempts to keep the grass short, but soon my lawn in Mansel Road, Small Heath was overgrown. Where are the busty bikini girls when you need them?
