Young man with a horn freaks out after witnessing an S&M orgy/murder; the victim, a rather mannish-looking woman, washes up topless on the beach...appearing to the musician not long afterwards at a club in Rio de Janeiro for a sexual affair. Inept 'art' movie taking advantage of the new permissiveness in cinema (flashes of naked flesh, a few lesbian clinches). Star James Darren looks appropriately confused by it all, though he does manage to keep his clothes on! All the women in the movie look like first-day drag queens, and none of the action on hand is erotic or colorful in the slightest. If you do watch, try to figure out why every fourth or fifth scene is in slow-motion. Childishly jaded, hopelessly derivative, bungled and benumbed. NO STARS from ****
