Overview

Sylvia Stickles runs a convenience store with her husband and mother-in-law. One day, Sylvia is hit on the head and transforms from an uptight prude to a sex-crazed lunatic. As she goes on a rampage through town, Sylvia attracts the attention of Ray Ray, a sexual healer and tow truck driver in search of the world's greatest orgasm. Their sexual revolution, however, causes a class war in their tiny Baltimore community.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A gleefully unhinged sex comedy that swings for the fences with its surreal premise and unapologetic excess. It's a trashy, outrageous fantasy designed to provoke and amuse in equal measure.
