Sexual Heights

About This Movie

So, Sexual Heights is this quirky little comedy from 1981 that plays with the awkwardness of post-divorce life. It centers around three guys who decide to get back at a babysitter who really stirred the pot in one of their marriages. The tone is a mix of raunchy humor and a kind of bittersweet nostalgia, and the pacing has that classic early '80s rhythm—sometimes slow, but it builds up to those punchlines admirably. The performances have this charming awkwardness, especially the chemistry between the leads. It’s not particularly polished, and you can sense the limitations of the practical effects and production values typical of the time, but it definitely has its own unique vibe which makes it stand out in the genre.

Sexual Heights has had a rather niche release history, with its initial run limited and hard to find on physical media. The scarcity of this title, especially on VHS and early DVD editions, makes it a curiosity for collectors interested in obscure comedies from the era. Its relatively low profile adds to its appeal, as it’s one of those hidden gems that can often spark interesting conversations among fellow collectors.
