Looking for Lots of Celebrity Skin? Look Elsewhere
Priscilla Barnes of TV's "Three's Company" promoted this movie, saying something like, "I have a very daring nude lesbian scene..." Well, she is in the movie, and she plays a lesbian, but aside from a few kisses and caresses, the ladies don't do much. If the Priscilla footage is the only reason you want to see "Erotique," you will be disappointed.

The movie is four sex-related short films spliced together. The first one is about a phone-sex worker, and it's kind of dumb; the next is longer and set in Latin America on board a train, and it's even worse. Then there's "Taboo Parlor," starring Priscilla, and while the sex and nudity are too brief the itsy-bitsy movie itself is better than the first two. Finally, there's "Wonton Soup," a movie about a Chinese couple that's really well made.

But again, if Priscilla Barnes is the drawing card for you, save your money and buy a collectors' edition of 3/76 Penthouse, which features her as Pet of the Month.

Insufferably bad soft porn.
Yes, it's porn. Yes, it's SOFT porn. And, yes, it is very, very bad. There are many films out there that do sex and fantasy well, tell a story, and contain "ideas." Try, for example, "Lady Beware" or even "Crimes of Passion." The acting and writing in Erotique is, well, wanting. The scenarios (not just the phone sex story but ALL of them) is standard stuff pilfered from the pages of Penthouse Forum circa 1977. Been there, done that, don't care. An utter waste of money and time.

Good and funny look at sex in 90's
Agree with that other reviewer that Maltin can only understand Disney fare. This one is for art films lovers who also want to laugh. Rented it from NetFLix, liked it so much that I'm buying it from Amazon.
