Showdown is a modern-day sex western from 1985. It's very outdoorsy, with a lot of big sky, rolling hills, and horses - heavy on the horses. Feisty Sharon Mitchell is the two-fisted Madam of the Bar Nothing Dude Ranch, which is really a whorehouse with a corral, situated in the middle of nowhere. A trio of your typically horny studs are stranded nearby after their car breaks down; they get a ride to the ranch and, as you guessed, sexual high jinks ensue. Homer's hammy overplaying of a moralistic nerd is deceptive: his quite literal roll in the hay with Nina Hartley and Gina Carrera is the film's sexual peak. Curiously, Horner uses a condom in this scene. Maybe he was afraid one of the flies would land on his branding iron. Patti Petite, in a one-on-one with Savage, takes matters in head. Sharon Mitchell is adept at both acting and screwing, and her performance is really as good as most of the stuff to be seen on the prime-time soaps. As for the showdown in Showdown, it's between our Madam and a pesky sheriff, doesn't involve guns, but still leads to some shooting, so to speak! Cast: Sharon Mitchell, Gina Carrera, Nina Hartley, Patti Petite, Shannon McCullough, Others
