Trama
Frank and Lee, a married couple struggling with marital problems, seek help from a female sex therapist. Frank has been impotent for 18 months, and Lee's sympathy towards him fluctuates between understanding and criticism. Frank's temper becomes an issue, leading him to see a psychotherapist who relates his anger to his sexual dysfunction. The therapist recommends hiring a mysterious European woman to guide them through fantasies intended to unlock their passion and aid healing. Meanwhile, the police investigate a series of brutal nighttime killings in the area. As corpses pile up, suspicion falls on Frank due to his temper, Eric (a cross-dressing neighbor and friend of Lee's), or even the European woman who keeps introducing new fantasies.
