Lacking the budgets of a decade ago at Wicked, Francois Clousot delivers a cutrate action movie "Kill Code 87".
It's the sort of reductio ad absurdum movie thriller once pioneered by Michael Winner, he of "Death Wish" and "The Mechanic" fame (but like his lesser-known effort "Scorpio" starring Alain Delon), so there's plenty of killing with minor gore effects. Mystery story involves a set of hitmen (and hitlady) working for a shady organization known simply as The Company.
But everything is cheaply staged on a small scale, to make way for the four lengthy sex scenes. Ivy Lebelle, Jessa Rhodes and good guy Aidra Fox perform hot porn, including plenty of anal action for the fans, but no setpiece action scene is provided.
So we have to be thankful for small favors, such as stylish lighting by Clousot, famed for his career as a cameraman. I particularly liked his staging for sex with heavy backlighting and mannequins positioned in the background for extra atmosphere.
