Hyperkink

About This Movie

Hyperkink is quite the curious entry from 1989, where the mundane meets the primal. The film sets a dark, claustrophobic atmosphere as five seemingly ordinary people find refuge from a relentless storm. But as the tension rises, so do their hypersexual urges, morphing into some of the rawest, most unfiltered scenes of sexuality committed to video at the time. The pacing creates a sense of urgency, and the practical effects—though not groundbreaking—add an unexpected layer of authenticity to the erotic tableau. Performances are both over-the-top and oddly genuine, which reflects the film’s unique blend of everyday life and unchecked desire. It’s definitely a piece that stands out in the landscape of 80s erotic cinema, capturing a particular moment in time and culture.

Hyperkink has had a somewhat obscure presence in the collector community, often overshadowed by more mainstream titles. However, it’s a fascinating artifact of late 80s erotic cinema. Various formats have emerged over the years, but original VHS copies can be tricky to come by. Collectors show a renewed interest lately, likely due to its unique thematic exploration and the cultural context it represents, making it a noteworthy piece for anyone focused on the era.
