Review of Save Me

Save Me (I) (1994)
4/10
Don't Stick Your Peen In Crazy

I remember seeing the box cover for 'Save Me' on video store shelves back in the day. It was kind of hard to miss with the featured blonde's boobs popping out. Perhaps that's what kept me from renting this T&A flick because there's no denying that's what it is.

Jim Stevens (Harry Hamlin) is going thru a tough separation and he's on the spot at work to produce results. Then enters Ellie (Lysette Anthony) a random woman he's attracted to in public. She plants a note within his view with her number as she runs into Oliver (Michael Ironside). Later she tells Jim he's crazy, controlling and she needs his help. She also can't wait to jump Jim's bones.

Have you ever watched a film where a guy can't think with his big brain? Do you know what a red flag from a woman looks like? Taking a page from 'Basic Instinct' & other erotic thrillers someone in a high end car tries to run Jim down multiple times. Takes shots at him. Ironside is usually fun, but doesn't go over the top here. Bill Nunn appears as a police detective while Steve Railsback plays Jim's awful boss.

'Save Me' is the kind of flick I saw thru almost immediately. Maybe you will too. The acting is relatively decent and there's no denying Lysette is a gorgeous woman with an accent, but you'll have to decide if female nudity is enough to sit thru a rehash story with a dumb man & obvious red herrings.
