But this is what you expect from your run-of-the-mill low budget film that would go straight-to-video without a whimper. Since its set amongst an art environment, the whole artiness of it got a bit too shallow for its own sake and it could have destroyed the overall mood, that's if it even had one. The pacing is at a snails pace and because of that boredom quickly moves in. The film's unpleasant ending is one of the things that go beyond the call of nature, but then at least it had some energy going for it, but still it was a bit overwrought. Even when Milano's character starts acting out the desirable ways of Ivy from her diary it's slightly hypnotic, but that's more to her tempting presence and desirable actions than that of the material. No plot behind the convoluted mess, but to rehash what we've seen before with moments that try to outdo each other, pointless flashbacks of Ivy (not from the first film) and some sequences that miss the point. It's hard to put in words, but not much did happen, really. Although the one redeeming factor of the film, of course Milano, can't help that it seems to loose steam soon after it eventually begins. But nuff said about the first film, in-retrospect this one is far more sexy and more steamier than the first. One thing that I thought that the original had over this pointless sequel other then an actual story, was that it had such a heavily grim edge to it. Again this one is no better, but since I'm a sucker for anything that involves Milano, it had me clicked in! This treads the same path of the first flick by presenting a adult thriller that oozes with steamy erotica, so if you like your trashy melodrama, bare flesh and soft core sex, well then this should tickle your fancy. The first film, which starred Drew Barrymore and Tom Skeritt I thought, was somewhat dull and rather ordinary. When Milano makes her first appearance she looks reasonably daggy, but she sure does look fine either way. Alyssa Milano there's no shadow of a doubt that she's best reason for watching this extremely tacky picture really that's it. So, now Lily strings along her guy who she's seeing and that of her married art teacher who slowly has became infatuated with her. From what she gathered from these items that ranged from sexy clothing, her artwork and to diary, she was one fearless and raunchy girl who liked to play games and tease to get what she wants. That's until she discovers a box in her closest that has some items that belong to a girl named Ivy. Lily is an art student who has moved away from home to start at a new collage, but also she's having trouble trying to fit in with her other pupils and flat mates.
