Plot

Dr. Bikini Jones (Christine Nguyen), an archaeologist, steals the golden idol which happens to be the key to a mysterious place called the Temple of Eros. Legend has it that anyone who discovers the Tiara of Ayesha in that temple becomes the supreme ruler of the country Moronica. Jones must prevail against her adversary, Evilla Cruella (Heather Vandeven), to get to the tiara.

A nation called Moronica also appeared in The Three Stooges short You Nazty Spy! and its sequel I'll Never Heil Again. Whether the name's use in this film is a case of homage or of coincidence is unclear.

Reception

DVD Verdict made special note that the film used communicable disease as a plot device.[4] The film was awarded 8 out of 10 points by Tarstarkas.net.[5] Blogcritics gave the film a negative review and wrote, "It's too bad there are not more laughs, even unintended, because all the non-sex scenes are insufferable".[6]

gollark: Constantly.
gollark: It might end up causing horrible inflation if you just arbitrarily summon money.
gollark: This works for me, but it doesn't always. Someone making ImageMagick may have to do boring unfun stuff to keep it usable, and may not be paid.
gollark: Well, in my case, I make random stuff which is "useful" to me and release it upon an unsuspecting world in case someone wants it.
gollark: That still doesn't provide much of an incentive to make intellectual property versus just not doing that, but it would help I guess.
