B-Movie 1980s Movie featuring Frankie Goes to Hollywood & Holly Johnson performing RELAX! - Body Double review by PV
This is a 1984 B-Movie really with a salacious, sleazy, soft porn angle - trashy stuff, odd plot, a tad confused.
MOST memorable for the actual appearance of Frankie Goes to Hollywood with Holly Johnson performing chart-topping 80s classic RELAX in a club scene in the second half.
Otherwise, very silly, absurd plot, TV-movie trash. 1 star stuff, with an added star for Frankie!
