Half Moon, A Hooker and a Werewolf

What if "My Dinner with Andre" was a horror film...a werewolf film?  Would Siskel and Ebert have still fawned over it?  Instead of Andre, the role was switched with a sultry, scantily clad whore?  Right. Siskel would have been fine with that, but not Ebert, probably. Today we have that film. The 2010 Jason Toler film, starring the 'adult' film star Tori Black, "Half Moon." A lot of conversation, but also some passionate pre-marital sex and dismemberment.  Sounds like "Mystic Pizza, " I know!

Rose (Black) is a sultry...whore!  Her pimp Kevin (Torey D. Sutton) is a mean one and he has rules. Immediately, Rose breaks the rules, steals another whore's trick, and ends up in a motel room with a handsome guy from Eastern Europe, Jacob (Marek Matousek). They talk, and he feeds her a nice dinner.  He's mysterious and apparently part gentleman. Rose kind of likes him. When they get down to the pre-marital sex, it is the most amazing Rose has ever had. Then they talk some more and Rose finds duct tape, handcuffs, tranquilizers, syringes, and a gun in the bathroom.  Concerned they are to be used on her, she takes the gun and confronts Jacob.

Even after Rose ties Jacob to the chair, the conversation continues. Rose calls Kevin who shows up, pummels Rose, and demands Rose get the combo for this guy's safe and get out all the money.  Now Rose, with a gun, tries forcing Jacob to give her the safe combination. Jacob insists he has a condition and the money is needed to pay a doctor to cure him.  Rose is skeptical...but soon she won't be.  What happens next?  You can probably guess, but the strong part of this film is Tori Black who oozes seduction and primal bacchanalia in every scene she is in.

Will Jacob get loose from his binds and tear up Rose?  Will  Jacob get loose from his binds and make more pre-marital sex with Rose?  Will Kevin come back and force the issue?  The cheese factor is terrific in this film and Mr. Matousek is terrific as the exotic hunk with a problem.  If the cast does not talk your ear off, you will enjoy the sex, gore, and violence of "Half Moon."
