Plot
editCrystal is an advertising executive who tracks down the mobsters who killed her boyfriend. One by one, she seduces each man, drugs them, then smothers them with her huge breasts. At the end, she finds out that her own father was implicated in her lover's death before being fatally shot in the chest by her father and turning her own gun on her father, killing him.
In popular culture
editA clip from the film is featured in John Waters's Serial Mom. In 1986, Waters told David Letterman about visiting the White House at the invitation of the Deputy Advisor of Political Affairs and was delighted to find they shared an appreciation of the film.[1]
