  WILD THINGS FILM REVIEW

Convoluted, over the top and hugely enjoyable thriller. Overflowing with gratuitous nudity, graphic violence, group sex, celebrity cameos and innovative plot twists

High school guidance counsellor Lombardo (Dillon) is accused of raping a rich kid student (Richards), but when Detective Ray (Bacon) is assigned to the case and local white trash Suzie (Campbell) comes forward as a witness, matters become very complicated indeed.

The glossy coating may give it the look and feel of a feature-length 90210 episode, but, actually, there's a neat, tricksy little movie at work here that, happily, piles on the twists and steams up the screen with its little-left-to-the-imagination sex scenes.

Trashy, yes, but unashamedly enjoyable.
