Review:
Scene 1: Nurse and Guard
The mental hospital at night is not a very crowded place, so a nurse (Kilie Ireland) and a guard can do what they like – some great oral, vaginal, and anal sex between two good-looking performers is what we get to see.

Scene 2: Alexa’s Story
One of the patients gets out of his room to look at Alexa, who is sitting in a separate room with a glass wall. She is sitting there on the floor remembering what happened to her. It appears that she was taken to this mental hospital because she allegedly killed her husband. We see a scene where in the rage of being unable to prove anything, she throws a glass on a policeman’s head, screams, etc. For all those “nice things”, she is placed into a mental hospital. She had an unsuccessful escape attempt, and now the doctors decide to encourage interaction between her and the patient who visited her last night – for that they transfer her to another division of the hospital – closer to other patience. We see what’s going on in this mental institution – it’s something similar to what was shown in 'One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'.

Scene 3: Patient’s Dream
Several patients are having a discussion guided by the nurse. They talk about their problems and fantasies – one of them imagines having sex with Sydnee Steele in a garden. One of the female patients (Bridgette Kerkove) talks about her past when she had sex with her lawyer to get his father’s money – mostly oral and anal.

There is no point in telling the whole story, so from this moment on I’ll mention only the sex scenes. The story line is quite interesting – it’s a complex psychological drama about relationships of people in mental hospitals, their life stories, etc.

Scene 4: Another Sex Dream: Keylynn
A couple having sex on the hospital bed – both performers have average looks, nothing special. The sex includes anal.

Scene 5: Alexa’s Affair
Alexa brings up her memories – she is having sex with a good-looking guy at home. Their sex is warm and nice – great performance!

Scene 6: In the Cage
Alexa makes love to one of the patients in the room with a glass wall. This is another great scene with her.
Once they are done, they decide to escape from the hospital, but something goes wrong, and Alexa gets killed.

Overall: It’s a quite high budget movie with serious psychological plot. The female cast here is great, especially Alexa, video and audio quality are excellent, the costumes and backgrounds match the story perfectly + there is a good sound track. If you like movies with plots, this may be a good one. Another interesting thing about this DVD is that there is disc 2 in the set with plenty of extras – behind the scene, interviews, extended scenes, deleted scenes, etc. Opening credits and some picture effects are also worth mentioning – they are very cool.
