Joe D'Amato made a chess movie. The pieces aren't the only things getting captured.
Mark Davis stars as a wealthy playboy who lives his life on his own terms. He's the kind of guy who always gets his way, in life and in love. All that changes when he runs into a gorgeous married woman (Alex Dane). Her rail-thin figure and invitingly wide mouth are more than he can resist and soon the two are engaged in a flirtation that threatens to blow up in both of their faces.
Production
D'Amato shot this in 5 days between horror gigs.
Writing
Tagline promises chess metaphors that barely materialize.
Director
Salvo Di Liberto
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Joe D'Amato directed over 200 films, mostly horror and adult, making this 'mainstream' drama a relative anomaly.
The TMDB 10.0 rating from one vote suggests either the director's estate or someone very committed to 1996 softcore.
