Nearly everything about Fascination feels overdone. At its delirious worst, it's as pungent a Parisian cheese shop, offering a cornucopia of laughable scenes.
By Nathan Rabin FULL REVIEW
30
The sort of soft-core, erotic thriller that would benefit from a lot more trash and a lot more sex.
By Frank Scheck FULL REVIEW

The less said about the story's twists and turns the better, except to warn that they become increasing preposterous with each passing minute.
By Maitland McDonagh FULL REVIEW

It plays like a soft-core-porn potboiler left over from the 1970s about a hot vampire chick.
By Michael O'Sullivan FULL REVIEW

By Wesley Morris FULL REVIEW
10

By Kevin Crust FULL REVIEW
10
Glacially paced, self-consciously acted and narratively risible.
