Miles' Rating:

Starring: Sean Michaels is the sultan, Mike Horner and Ariana are his conspiring best friend and wife, and Tina Tyler is the succulent genie. That's all the set-up you need for another Arabian Nights stlye saga with gobs of costumed humping and a storyline rich in intrigue.

the elaborate setting is never as convincing as the filmmakers intended. Once you spot the plastic "magic lamp" and focus on the stilted dialog, it's hard to go along with the story.

So look beyond the stagey sets and zero in on the action. Ariana, so evil, so desirable, and Tina Tyler, Ariana's lushious foe, are game performers. Michaels gives slave Lana Sands a raunchy backdoor workout, and the obligatory orgy is a stand-out.

Ariana's bitchiness, Debi Diamond's willingness (she dos a ripping D. P. with Horner and Jake Williams), and, of course, Tina, who adds a touch of romanticism with her loyalty to the sultan.

Too many long chatty passages, and a storyline we've done before.

The girls earn the film an 8.
