Some of the Canadian film types on this list may have been biting their tongues (or crossing their digits) to avoid the appearance of actually liking that blunt little 1993 film by Gerard Ciccoritti, PARIS, FRANCE, but it's a perfect example of a supremely awful movie about sexual obsession in Paris and deserves to be cited for that reason alone. Most of the film actually takes place in Canada, but frequent flashbacks bring us back to a wildly overdone S&M affair between the blocked pomo writer, Lucy Quick (Leslie Hope), and a hunky poseur played by Raoul Trujillo. Meanwhile, Lucy's latest lover whines endlessly about the fact that he's never been to Paris -- a fact that partially explains his inability to satisfy the worldly woman in his life. Lucy's literary breakthrough after a long dry spell comes in the form of a bloody sex-death scene back in the hotel room where she and Trujillo held their erotic Olympiads.
