'Mirror Images' - A fun early 90's erotic thriller with slasher elements in this hazy dreamlike world of switched identities and seductive pleasures laced with political intrigue and murder and what could be more enjoyable than that. The movie is a rather entertaining and sleazy whodunit that features a fun cast, cheesy dialogue and plenty of deaths mixed with some classic T&A from the likes of Delia Sheppard and Julie Strain.
The Plot = Kaitlin Blair (Delia Sheppard), a bored and sexually frustrated woman adopts her twin sister Shauna's (also played by Delia Sheppard) identity when she goes out of town, but Kaitlin soon finds herself involved in a murder case.
Okay it would be a stretch to class this flick within the horror genre as it's more of a 90's sex thriller, but it does feature some light slasher elements within' its storyline and while it isn't the most original or exciting thriller out there, but the plot despite it's unoriginality is interesting enough to keep you invested and the erotic scenes are well crafted, even if the serial killer subplot and slasher elements isn't all that engaging and everything leads to a predictable and convoluted climax.
Delia Sheppard gives a convincing performance in the dual roles of the twins and proved to be good at playing both the naïve and innocent Kaitlin as well as the sexy and seductive Shauna. The rest of the cast were entertaining as well with John O'Hurley as the detective and fellow penthouse model Julie Strain as Gina and the real standout in terms of acting is Jeff Conaway as the sleazy and slimy husband.
Overall 'Mirror Images' is an entertaining and sleazy erotic thriller that features a lot of sex, some bad acting and an absurd plot that was fun if a little too ambitious to fully succeed.
