Everything You Ever Need To Know About Life...

... you can learn from:

Original Sin (2001)
Julia: It's the theater. I love it.
Even the cheap melodrama.

In a week that brought us the news that Paul Verhoeven's Showgirls is getting a 4K restoration and re-release (for now just in Europe but I have no doubts we can scream loud enough here in the US for them to hear us)  we must also turn our camp-detectors over to this torrid trash-heap starring Angelina Jolie and Antonio Banderas, which was released exactly 15 years ago today. I've always had too soft a spot for this godawful thing, but then I do love me some cheap melodrama, and I do love me some sleazy bisexual Thomas Jane...

... on which count man does this movie deliver. Well the sleazy part at least -- the bisexual thing is one of those forced kisses that everybody looks like they wanna barf from. But TJ brings the sleaze and then some in his sex-scene with Jolie (who's never shied away from sleaze herself, bless her). Come let us stare at the delicious NSFW sleaze after the jump....

When this came out, my 14 year old brain was not ready for him and this movie. There's still a section of my brain that's probably busted from overloading.
