## Description

Robert and James are upstanding members of the community. They are young professionals with bigoted, conservative upper-middle-class girlfriends. When Michele - a gorgeous stripper at the notorious club Hot Summer's - sees Robert's shiny red new roadster, she is overcome by a desire to possess it. Manipulating his friends and neighbours with offerings of ever more sordid sexual delights, she engineers Robert's descent into a tangled world of erotic temptation. As his character degrades from that of an altruistic medical researcher into a drooling plaything around the manicured fingers of his keeper, Robert's fiancée and best friend try to help him; unfortunately, their involvement also subjects them to the irresistible lure of pretty toys.
