SUPER SEX (1986) ***

A psychotherapist sets out to help women who can only achieve sexual fulfillment in their dreams.  By “help”, I just mean he listens to them talk about their dreams while we watch their fantasies come alive for the camera.  One gal gets banged in the shower by her boyfriend, another has a threesome with her parents, and there’s even a patient who dreams of possessing Nina Hartley so she can fuck her husband.  The doctor eventually hits on a surefire method to cure his patients of their dreams…  Bang them right on his couch!  (I wonder if it’s covered by insurance or not.) 

Directed by Carlos (Pulsating Flesh) Tobalina, Super Sex has a sturdy structure that’s ideal to frame several sex scenes upon.  In fact, Tobalina pretty much abandons the structure in the third act as most of the last twenty minutes or so is devoted to a string of scenes of the doctor and his colleagues balling their patients.  The scenes themselves vary in quality and almost all of them are way too brief to really build much momentum, but they more than make up for it in sheer volume.

The highlight is the finale where a shrink helps Jeannie Pepper find her ideal man.  The scene where Tobalina uses jump cuts to show the horny patient is inhabiting the body of Hartley is surprisingly well done too, especially given the limited means at his disposal.  (For whatever reason, the two biggest stars in the movie, Hartley and Pepper aren’t even listed in the opening credits.)  Also, the sex scenes include plenty of three-ways and if you’re a fan of that sort of thing (Devil’s Triangle or otherwise), you should enjoy it.  (If you have a couch fetish, this will easily get Four Stars as nearly all the sex scenes occur on the therapists’ couches.)

Overall, Super Sex doesn’t exactly live up to its title but it’s certainly a better than average fuck flick.  Plus, the scenes are all filmed and choreographed in a solid manner.  Well… for a Carlos Tobalina flick, that is.
