Our usual Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon gets cranked up to a sizzle in this erotic thriller about deceit, lust and the importance of safely exiting a swimming pool in slow-motion. It co-stars Matt Dillon, Denise Richards and Neve Campbell and acts as a salient reminder to viewers that high-school guidance counsellors should take a good, hard look at themselves from time to time. Wild Things was so popular at its time that it spawned a decade or so’s worth of straight-to-DVD sequels. And it’s left us all wondering: is sucking champagne off a naked body sexy or just sticky?
