So... five years after this was released "Strip Teaser" came out and used the same cast, the same locations, and some of the same scenes to make a totally different movie.... and also in 1995 "Hot Ticket" was released that kind of did the same thing.

And if you are familiar with low budget 90s era stripper movies.... that's not at all uncommon and is often blatantly obvious.

However, unlike MOST movies of this kind... Naked Obsession actually tried for a story and plot and decent acting. I mean, this literally puts some real effort into things.

And the plot is unique, a politician, a homeless man, a stripper, his wife, and a killer trying to screw him over for... love. And it manages to pull off some suspense in the process.

It's almost like you are not watching a B grade stripper exploitation movie. It's not a great film, but it's not the kind of film that you are going to ever see again.

So A for effort alone, if not for originality.
