Invite all your friends, and have a rollicking good time portraying your favorite film-lampooning cinephiles with Ring of Desire. The plot is entertainingly improbable, the dialogue (that which is audible) flimsy, and the production values on par with your family's recording of Christmas morning 1996. The fact that some of the actors manage to deliver respectable performances is a testament to their apparent talent or their very good luck. The burlesque-inspired, yet chaste, sex scenes were utterly bizarre- the ring-inhabiting actresses reminded me of strange cats.

Overall, Ring of Desire is a movie that delivers in entertainment value if you know what you're getting yourself into: a just-for-fun home video that'll give you and your friends a good laugh.

My wife and I heard someone from our city directed this. We watched it. This movie is horrible. I had thought about it for a couple of days, and could not think of a worst movie. This is the worst movie I have ever seen. Even worst than Manos Hands Of Fate. The acting is bad. The editing is bad. The sound is horrific. Someone needs to tell them about ADR. The sound picked up so much from the background. We had closed caption on to understand the opening. The sound cuts out twice. We thought it was our wifi at first. Nope! The captions kept going. The script is bad. So much is badly explained. One of the scenes that lost sound had important dialogue. The direction is terrible. This movie is only 1 hour and 25 minutes long. But it feels so dragged out. Every aspect of this movie is complete garbage. What made it enjoyable was making fun of it. So if you do watch it. Watch it with your friends and make fun of this like Mystery Science Theater 3000. I would give this movie zero stars, but IMDB won't let me.

So when a character is telling you, they are all about white magic and not about hurting people, just to contradict herself a few seconds later by admitting that a certain ring actually has dark magic powers ... you may have discovered that you are overthinking it.

I am not too convinced with the actors, but the story is decent enough I reckon. It would make a good story/shell for a softcore flick I reckon. But while the movie has a lot of sexual situations in it and teases a lot, there is no noteable nudity to speak of (I did not pause or zoom, you just don't see anything in particular and right in your face is what I am saying - no pun intended).

Horror buffs will recognize Felissa Rose ... not the same impact in this as she had in a Sleepaway camp back in the day ... just saying. But a nice touch ...
