- Keep It has Oklahoma Gazette, Blogcritics, and DVD Verdict reviews. Admittedly no Citizen Kane but the sources push it over the edge for me. Taylor Trescott - my talk + my edits 16:42, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
- Delete: Reviews are not persuasive sources for retention. It's a cheap direct-to-cable porn movie of no notability and an article of no substance. Utterly unnecessary! --Drmargi (talk) 21:33, 9 August 2014 (UTC)
- Keep This is cheesy film with some very bad acting and really bad dialog, but for films... good ones or stinkers... reviews ARE the expected "persuasive sources for retention" to meet WP:NF. Even with this bit of dreck having coverage in lots of unreliable sources, it does have enough coverage in actually reliable sources to meet notability criteria. And THAT is what is required. So pardon me Drmargi, but even with it being a poor film with little substance, films being reviewed in reliable sources are exactly what allows a keep per WP:NF. When considering policy and guidelines, simply feeling it "utterly unnecessary" does not apply, and neither does WP:DONTLIKEIT and WP:USELESS. Schmidt, Michael Q. 05:24, 10 August 2014 (UTC)
- Keep. With due respect to Drmargi's argument, reviews of a film in reliable sources mean that it passes WP:GNG, which is all that is required. Whether or not it also passes WP:NFILM is irrelevant, as WP:GNG applies to all kinds of content. JulesH (talk) 21:21, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

- Keep. I added a few citations. Believe me, I'm no fan of Fred Olen Ray, but this film received a fair bit of coverage for bottom of the barrel softcore Cinemax erotica. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 18:57, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
