In the history of heroic private investigators of cinema we have Sam Spade in The Maltese Falcon, on TV it was Magnum, P.I. and now a new breed of super sleuth, Sexina. At least that’s the idea behind the comedy adventure film Sexina: Pop Star P.I. from writer/director Erik Sharkey available now to stream on Amazon Prime. But just how sexy is Sexina? Break out your magnifying glass and let’s look at the clues presented on the screen.
The VelociPastor is a film that’s cinematic DNA seems to have been excavated from an archaeological triple feature of Steven Spielberg’s Jurassic Park, William Friedkin’s The Exorcist and Bruce Lee’s Enter The Dragon. Actually, scrap that. More likely it was films like Roger Corman’s Carnosaur, Leslie Nielsen’s Repossessed and the A Fistful of Yen sequence from Kentucky Fried Movie that inspired this film’s zaniness. The VelociPastor is the hardest I’ve laughed at a film in the last year, proving that you don’t need a Hollywood budget or marquee names to bring the funny.
