No box or poster art seems to exist for this movie. Actually, I'm pretty sure it has never had an official release. That's probably not a good sign...

Bono

Mr. Bono Zorro (what kind of name is that!?) is a big-shot music producer, and when he's not busy making tunes at work he's schmoozing with the young ladies in the business. Bono has a girlfriend, Jane, but they're a swinging couple, so she's fine with him taking ladies to his apartment and impressing them with the advanced computer that controls his home like something from Star Trek. The computer is nicknamed S.E.X.Y. and Bono flirts with it like it's another one of his girlfriends.
While left alone in the apartment for the day, two girls named Melanie and Julie relax and enjoy the luxuries of Bono's wealth. S.E.X.Y. watches them through cameras, and the ominous *bleeps* and *bloops* seem to indicate that S.E.X.Y. is not happy about sharing the house with them.
Sure enough, it's not long before the computer has killed the two girls!

"S.E.X.Y. give me some loving." - Bono

Jane

You might be asking, "How does a computer kill?" Well, S.E.X.Y. can control all the appliances, so she cooks one girl in the tanning bed and boils the other in the shower! She's even capable of destroying all the evidence.
Bono and Jane come home and invite some friends over for a kinky party. It takes forever but the computer finally kills again, this time with an electric toothbrush!

Now trapped in the apartment by S.E.X.Y.'s control, Jane and Bono argue over what is happening. Jane becomes convinced that S.E.X.Y. is homicidal, but Bono is skeptical that the machine he loves would ever hurt anyone. Things get even more bizarre when the computer is somehow able to manifest itself in human form; as a naked woman painted green and gold attempting to turn the couple against each other!

Although there are dull sections and long pointless conversations, the movie is undeniably weird and I had a few good laughs which really kept me in the zone. Every aspect, like the sets, acting and music, all seem to accidentally create an almost surreal mood. I'm not sure if some of the characters begin to hallucinate or the movie itself was making me hallucinate, but it feels like the director was definitely smoking something.

????????

The script is capable enough to create tension between the characters, but there's not really any suspense while we wait for S.E.X.Y. to make another move. But who needs mystery when you can rely on sleazy sexploitation and bat-shit insanity? Eschewing subtlety the movie decides to deliver the audacious, and I guess that is rather commendable.
Were the filmmakers trying to say something about technology ruining our morality? Perhaps, but I'm sure the movie itself has ruined its own share of lives.

Be sure not to miss:
- S.E.X.Y. stands for Central Environmental Control System. That is the extent of the wit we're dealing with here.
- Every character has at least one bath or shower. Everyone is really clean!
- There's some great experimental music. Lots of odd synth beats melting all over each other.

Internet review:
"There's a certain "we don't give a fuck" spirit running through it that almost approaches appealing." - Ira

Should I watch it?
It's weirdo trash for the curious, just don't expect a lot to happen.
