[REVIEW] Diane Farr – American Romance

Oct 23, 2016 | Movies: US/UK/Aus | 0 comments

Slow-paced thriller about a wannabe Bonnie and Clyde couple, Krissy (Chase) and Jeff, who go around on a killing spree. Having blagged their way into another couple’s house, they make the mistake of picking on an abusive husband who has essentially been holding his wife captive for some time. Not only that, but he caught her cheating with a younger man and killed him, rendering her paraplegic. The action begins when ditzy blonde Krissy strolls outside, peeks through the bathroom window and spots the dead lover’s bloodied body in the bathtub. Jeff sees this too, but both wind up being captured.

The grizzled husband, Emery, has Jeff duct taped to a chair in the living room, and brings in his wife Brenda (Farr) to make a show of what happens to people who cross him. She is sitting on a wheelchair, hands bound to the armrests with white cloth strips, gagged with a wide strip of duct tape, and bare feet unbound since her legs are paralyzed. For an added nice visual, she is wearing only a grey negligee with black lace and a strap hanging off her shoulder.

Jeff soon breaks free from his chair and turns the tables on Emery, beating the shit out of him while Brenda looks on and mmpphhs. Going outside to their car, Jeff discovers Krissy duct taped to the seat; her hands are taped and outstretched behind the headrest, arms pinned overhead with more tape around the seat, feet unbound and crossed over the dashboard in a leisurely yet alluring pose. She is also gagged with a tape strip, but this is quickly peeled off her mouth to elicit an adorable squeak.

Turns out Emery did this to her, but she is not particularly bothered (for reasons revealed later). Instead, Jeff carries her out of the car and lays her onto the hood for some hot sex. All the while, her hands remain taped in front. A note about Krissy’s attire for most of the movie: she wears a white cardigan over a flimsy orange crop top, visible grey bra, a tiny blue miniskirt, and cream-coloured heels.

Back inside, Emery sits on the floor recovering from the beatdown, with Brenda still bound and gagged as before. When Krissy sees this, she reveals her kinky side and is impressed by the sight of Brenda in bondage: “Well I’ll be darned!”, she coos in a sexy voice. Jeff then unties Brenda’s hands, but remains curious to know if she really is paralyzed. Without warning he stabs her in the thigh with a knife, which shocks her but obviously causes no pain. Fortunately one of the cloth strips is still nearby, so she promptly ties it around her leg to stop the bleeding; Jeff could not care less.

A flashback shows what happened after Emery found out about Brenda and her lover. Offscreen he wound up breaking her legs, and keeping her bound to the wheelchair as punishment. Lots of close-ups of her tape gagged face. This sequence lasts a few minutes, until we return to the present where all four are in a bedroom. Brenda and Emery sit on the floor, unbound for now, while Krissy and Jeff make out in front of them. As they get lost in their passion, Brenda uses this chance to shuffle out of the room using just her arms and upper body. One brief upskirt of her white panties as she shuffles down the stairs.

It does not take long before the kooky lovers realize what just happened, so Krissy goes downstairs with gun in hand to find Brenda having impressively managed to crawl past the porch and halfway up the path. This time Krissy is wearing only her pink lace panties (plus crop top and bra), and is chewing gum in a sassy way. She drags Brenda back inside the house, and from hereon the scene slows right down without much change: Brenda is sat up on the bed, hands very securely duct taped upper spreadeagle to the bedframe, and not gagged.

Emery is duct taped to a chair across from her, and in one sequence is forced to watch as Jeff gropes and leches over her. At one point Emery also gets stabbed in the thigh, with the knife left sticking out. Brenda looks on with shock, but never gets hysterical. Jeff leaves them alone for the rest of the scene, during which the couple somehow reconcile and apologize to each other for everything that has happened. Brenda offers encouragement as Emery pulls out the knife in agony and uses it to cut himself free. Finally, he cuts his wife free as well.
