Wonderful Movie

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

***SPOILERS*** After escaping from the notorious and escape-poof Laughln Institute for the criminally insane, after murdering her attending psychiatrist and nurse, committed murderess Debbie Strand, Jodi Lyn O'Keefe, gets a ride from collage student Tracy Carley, Sara Lancaster, whom she later murders and steals her identity.Making her way to the collage that the late Tracy Carley is attending Debbie soon makes a name for herself as the most troublesome student in the entire school. This leads her to also corrupt her dorm mate the straight as an arrow Laney, Jenaette Box, whom she sneaks out of the dorm one night and gets her plastered at the local gin-mill. That while Debbie, as Tracy Carley, ends up murdering this homeless drunk, Frank Noon, a fellow patient at the mental intuition that she was committed to. That's when the drunk recognized her and tried to warn the bouncer as well as bartender in the joint that she was both an escapee from a loony bin as well as under age.It's when Debbie sets her sights on handsome English teacher Sam Delkner, Jus Garcia, that she overreaches herself in that his girlfriend also a teacher in the collage Carla Briggs, Katherine Kendall, just happens to be pregnant with Sam's child! Sam as much as he tries to get Debbie off his back and out of his life can't shake her in Debbie's insane determination to have the handsome English teacher all for herself! Even if it ends up killing him as well as her! Since killing is no problem for Debbie in her murdering at least seven people, including her parents and her dorm captain, she now targets Carla, who's the only obstacle in her attempt to have Sam as her lover, as her next victim!Too confusing to follow with about a dozen sub-plots in it the film "Teacher's Pet" or "Devil in the Flesh:2" only keeps you interested in the many soft-core sex scenes in it between English teacher Sam and his hot to trot student Debbie Strand that really heat things up wherever the two get down and dirty.****SPOILERS*** After almost what looked like she finally paid for her crimes Debbie,like the crazed and indestructible Michael Myers in the Halloween movies", suffering from a near fatal kitchen knife wound mysteriously pops up in the middle of the desert to be picked up and driven to the nearest hospital emergency center by non-other***MAJOR SPOILER*** then Tracy Carley's rich father, Patrick Pankhursh, who still thinks that his long dead daughter Tracy is still alive and having some trouble in adjusting to collage life!You get the impression that a sequel to "Teacher's Pet" is in the works with the farther adventures of the crazed homicidal and pretty Debbie Strand but either because of lack of public interest or money it died a quiet and peaceful death or cancellation. That's more then we can say for Debbie's victims!

"Devil in the Flesh 2" is a really lackluster and disappointing sequel.**SPOILERS**After her affections are turned down, Debbie Strong, (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe) escapes from a mental asylum and goes on the run, managing to wind up at Holmby College and winds up falling for English Teacher Sam Deckner, (Jsu Garcia) the writer of a book she liked. Settling in, she finds out about his girlfriend Carla Briggs, (Katherine Kendall) and plots to get together with him. As she endears herself to the other students of the campus with her fiery appearance, a string of murders around the school has the local authorities baffled. When her attitude starts to rub off on others, who make fun of her for the crush she has on her teacher, she lashes out and begins to take out her frustrations on those who stand in the way of her obsession.The Good News: This here wasn't that bad at all. One of the film's biggest improvements over the first one is the fact that the body count is a lot bigger. Rather than a few deaths all at the end, this one puts in a couple here and there, really making the psycho seem a lot more ruthless than before. The kills are a little more brutal than before, further adding to the deranged feel of the killer. One is thrown a hair-dryer inside a shower and electrocuted, another has a wood with nails in it swung into the forehead, a syringe to the neck and a metal coil impaled in the back and coming out the front. In addition to the deaths, there's some slashings and stabbings, as well as a gunshot wound, really amp up the gore factor of the film. The only other part of the film that is above average is the final showdown, which has some really good stalking scenes utilizing some of the best suspense in the film. With the darkened hallways, noises and characters popping out of nowhere, it's one of the best scenes in the film, and aside from the kills, the reason to see this one.The Bad News: This here is a really troublesome film. One of the worst problems is that everything is exaggerated to the point of gleeful self-parody. The victim whose identity the heroine adopts doesn't just meet an untimely end, the sequence includes a part where she yells out a series of profanities, then she accidentally gasses herself with pepper spray and becomes impaled on a metal coil, all in one swift gesture. This is way too over-the-top for what could've been done in a way simpler motive rather than this. As it is, it looks like the victim is a brain-dead klutz who doesn't know how to work anything, and this is just too over-the-top to really be anything more than that. Similarly, she doesn't just corrupt her mousy roommate, she introduces her to drinking, Internet porn, manslaughter, and bi-curiosity, all in one eventful evening. This is all conducted a little too much. Had it been spread out over a little further over the time period of the film would've been more believable. The way it's presented here, it makes her seem way too sleazy and pushy for someone who we are supposed to be the heroine. The other big nagging problem with this one is that there is very little done that would propel the romance forward. There's a chance encounter in the parking lot, a book meeting and one class session, and this results in the hardcore crush in the film. This really should've used more events to build things up. This one really should've been the introduction and then built up the romance from that, only for this one to just use the above set-up to carry the romance and ensuing jealousy. There's also a couple of really useless scenes. One is a silly erotic dream scene that seems all the more gratuitous for the distracting obviousness of the fact that she has refused to take her clothes off. It's quite obvious this is occurring, and it really ruins what is happening in the moment. The events at the end to regain the upper-hand in the romance are excruciating to watch, and don't have any real value to be there. All in all, this is a very uninspired sequel.The Final Verdict: With a lot of problems and a couple of reasons for recommendations, this is a really lackluster sequel to a really weak original. This is really only recommended to those looking for some cheap sleaze or fans of the first one, otherwise this is a skip-able movie.Rated R: Graphic Language, Violence, Nudity and several mild sex scenes

Let me get this out in the open, I have never seen the original "Devil in the Flesh". It's not on top of my list of films I have to watch, I'm sure that it'll be on late night cable one of these nights and I'll be bored enough to put it on. But at the point of time, I haven't watched it. But having not being able to compare the two, I can still say that Jodi Lynn O'Keefe does a pretty fair job with the script she's given (and no I'm not just saying that because she shares my surname and happens to be from the same state as I was from). Anyways Jodi plays Debbie Strong, a nut-job who escapes from the loony bin, kills a college co-ed, takes her identity and falls in lust with a teacher, killing anyone in her way. Make no mistake the film is bad b-movie fare through and through, yet it's also strangely watchable in it's own way.Eye Candy: Lisa Comshaw and Katherine Kendall both get topless ( an extra is topless as well) My Grade: B- Where I saw it: Starz on Demand

Debbie Strong (Jodi Lyn O'Keefe) is a violent teenager confined in a mental institution. She loves to write and read poems. She shows her poetry to her doctor, and he reveals them to other persons in the asylum. Debbie becomes upset with that action, in her opinion, a betrayal of her trusts by the doctor. One night, she kills the nurse that systematically abuses of her and her doctor, and escapes from the asylum. She gets a ride on the road with Tracy Carley (Sarah Lancaster), the daughter of a millionaire, who is going to the university. In an accident, Tracy dies and Debbie decides to use her identity. She meets professor Sam Deckner (Jsu Garcia), the writer of her favorite book, and has a crush on him. However, Sam has a commitment with professor Carla Briggs (Katherine Kendall), and Debbie tries to make them break up to seduce Sam. What happens next is a predictable festival of clichés. This erotic thriller has everything that a viewer has watched before: it is a kind of teen version of `Fatal Attraction' mixed up with other teen movies. The coincidences, such as Debbie and Tracy being very alike, or the meeting of Debbie with her favorite writer, Sam, irritate me. Jodi Lyn O'Keefe has a pair of wonderful eyes and a very beautiful face. However, in one sex scene with close, the viewer may see some fat and wrinkles on her buttocks, having a sudden cut of the camera in the montage of the film. It would be better off for this young actress not undressing in that position with such a close. Inclusive, the scene would be more sensual. My vote is five.Title (Brazil): `Dupla Personalidade' (`Double Personality')
