Quick and ineffective psycho sexual drama from Shaun Costello wastes a lot of talent in a muddled, insincere story of a woman (Andrea True) suffering amnesia following a car accident becoming aware that she may also be suffering from a split personality disorder after her husband (Eric Edwards) thinks he sees her performing in an adult film.

Good performances from True and Edwards but their characters have nowhere to go, the plot just spinning its wheels on the idea with Marc Stevens co-starring in essentially unrelated scenes playing a sarcastic PI who's enlisted by the treating physician to learn more about the troubled woman's past. Linda L'Amour and Darby Lloyd Rains have incidental roles as fellow sex workers mistreated by the cruel and sadistic pimp.

Stevens' scenes are done tongue in cheek whilst the rest is apparently taken seriously portraying the woman as sympathetic for her condition and as a consequence, the tone becomes uneven. It's repetitive and bland with an unconvincing, lacklustre climax, a disappointment considering that the story itself has merit, but the execution is hopelessly lopsided.

The psychological drama subgenre features intricate workings of the human mind, emotions, and psychological states. These dramas delve into characters' inner thoughts, perceptions, motivations, and often involve complex narratives and emotional depth, aiming to engage the audience's intellect and emotions simultaneously.
