Pre wedding nerves cause much loosening of clothing
Zalman King is expert at producing soft porn rubbish that is about as erotic as ground grit, but Two Moon Junction is the exception, saved almost single handedly by Sherilynn Fenn, who is excellent in the role of little rich girl April, who falls for a hunky carnie on the eve of her wedding.
A great acting performance...not to mention a great body, which she shows off to an appreciative audience (in my house, anyway). two moon junction actually appeals to women as much as men.
If you are forced to watch a Zalman King movie, make it this one.

I love this film!
Okay, so certain aspects of Two Moon are predictable, maybe even hokey. Who cares? Sherilyn Fenn and Richard Tyson are phenomenal (both in looks and acting), sets are great, and the cinematography is even better. Music is killer and classic. The supporting cast, including Louis Fletcher (Nurse Rachet!) and Burl Ives, does an outstanding job!
I've been watching this film since if first came out, and I still watch it every time I get the chance. Can't wait to get a DVD player so I can see the widescreen version. This movie definitely ranks in my top ten favourites. Make sure you rent/buy this movie - it's well worth it. Unless you're staking your professional reputation on it, this movie is a definite two thumbs up!

Underrated
4 Stars is too low for this surprisingly strong film. Yes, it's a Zalman King movie, but it was among his first and unlike probably everything else he did since, was a very good movie. It has a good, tight story and some very strong performances from its leads, especially Richard Tyson (who really should have become a big star but just never quite did for some reason).
I still believe that it is among the sexiest movies ever made, and that is not possible if you do not care about the characters or are drawn into their passion. Most movies of this type fail to engage the viewer in the story and so the passion and sexuality suffer, but that is not the case here. One doesn't need to watch this movie as an excuse for some cheap titillation, it also delivers as an enjoyable film as well.

Nice softcore film.
Zalman King's Two Moon Junction, probably isn't as good as his 9 1/2 Weeks, but the film does have quite a few love scenes that we wouldn't see in today's films. Sherilyn Fenn stars as April who doesn't seem to like her new fiance Chad (Martin Hewett). In an attempt to find what see wants, she goes to a local carnival and falls for muscle bound carnival worker Perry (Richard Tyson) and have the usual affair. The all star cast includes Academy Award winners, Louise Fletcher (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest) and Burl Ives (The Big Country), other well known cast members include Herve Villichaize (TV's Fantasy Island), Milla Jovovich (The Fifth Element), Millie Perkins (Diary of Anne Frank), Juanita Moore (Academy Award nominee for Imitation of Life) and Kristy McNicole (TV's Empty Nest). Not bad, but could have been a little better for a sex film.
Hot date flick... Sherilyn Fenn before Twin Peaks fame and blonde...
gets it on with hunky,I mean top choice Richard Tyson. Those scenes burn up the screen...
Check out the scene at the carnival where Fenn sees bare-chested Tyson... George Thorogood and the Destroyers in background.
Great supporting cast of Burl Ives and Louise Fletcher( One Flew Over Cucukoo's Nest/nurse Ratchet fame)
Fenn and Tyson melt the screen. I was surprised when I "stumbled upon this flick" back then after reading a lukewarm review in the NYT. The part the "Times" forgot was the erotic/almost soft porn love scenes. Whew!

- GoofsAt the end of the movie, when April is in Perry's shower, we see her left hand without any jewelry. In a subsequent close-up of the same hand, there's an engagement ring and wedding band.
