Like the Sex Asylum videos that Vivid put out a few years back, Clinique deals with a French mental clinic and the wacky participants whose sexual problems have landed them in the joint. Sexy and funny, this plot-heavy romp features noted American sex veterans in a European production that with some tighter editing and polish, could have been a AAAA production.

Nonetheless, the doctor who runs the asylum leaves the duties to Dr. Christana Bell, a lunatic herself, who turns the place over to the inmates. Among the highlights: Jamie Gillis as a cross-dresser whose role-reversal sex scene with Porsche Lynn is a gem; married couple Bionca and Jon Dough (he with a shoe fetish) with Victoria Paris in a steamy three-way where Paris takes a wet shot in the mouth; Laura Valentine (who has a dick inside her body that only comes out when she dances) in a very thorough lesbian scene with Bionca, whose use of anal beads is legendary; and Robert Malone (who loses his tongue everytime he eats pussy) with Tracey Adams and her flapping tits on an exercise bike.

Victoria Paris does a nice comic turn as the inmate with a penchant for stealing and smelling underwear and the dialogue is often quite good. Fred Lincoln does an admirable job holding it all together and there's enough interesting sex and weird situations to make Clinique a worthy choice. Good shot of Victoria Paris on the box cover.
