The suburbs will never be the same again. Mike Binder's award-winning screwball com­edy features Mariel Hemingway as Laura, an unfulfilled suburban housewife who explores lesbian tendencies she didn't even know she had (hasn't she seen Personal Best?). The Sex Monster is a rare gem — fun, fresh, and full of unexpected laughs. Laura's husband Marty (Mike Binder) thinks it would be the hottest thing ever if Laura were to dip her foot into sapphic waters. Laura claims disinterest until, after considerable pleading from her better half, she consents to a dalliance with her lus­cious coworker, Didi.

Though the girls let Marty stay on the court and in the game, it immediately becomes clear that they really don't need him on their team. The affair con­tinues, sans Marty, until Laura hungers for more and puts the moves on Marty's sexy new assistant, Diva. Diva tries to resist Laura, as her propensity for girl-on-girl action sup­ posedly came to a halt when she graduated college. But Laura, as we know, is irresistible - and insatiable. Not long after Diva lets her guard down, Laura goes on an excursion to Las Vegas with Marty's sister. Will this sex monster stop at nothing to appease her new­ found desire for dames?
