Goddess of Love

GODDESS OF LOVE opens with synthesizer music that could only have come from the 1980's. Taken to Mount Olympus, we are there as Zeus (John Ryes-Davies) turns his daughter, Venus (Vanna White) into a statue. She's no longer allowed on the mountain until a human male falls in love with her... and survives.

Enter Ted Beckman (David Naughton), who is busy getting ready to marry his fiancee. Through mishap and happenstance, Ted winds up reinvigorating Venus, who has somehow wound up in a museum. Unfortunately, the way in which this occurs makes Ted the object of her divine desire! Complicating matters, Ted's fiancee is back in town.

Preposterous and impossibly corny, this is fairly typical made-for-TV fluff of the period. Ms. White is indeed beautiful, and her role isn't bad.

Harmless, enjoyable viewing...
