Invitation To Hell (1984)



Most of us fantasize about living the so called good life. You know, with money we can wipe our asses with, living in L.A., beaches are walking distance and open all year round, and the wealthy that attracts the wealthy. It sounds very cliche I know, especially because it is not a reality for most. Why can't life just be one happy country club, with a spa, jacuzzi, pool, tennis courts, etc.? If you could have it all just like that, wouldn't you take the offer? Wouldn't you be a tad bit suspicious, thinking that maybe there is a catch? 


If the "catch" looked anything like this that is.....

The so called "catch" is a sexy, blue eyed force of temptation in a red dress. She is the epitome of the adage, "if something is too good to be true, it probably is not". Come to think of it, a lot of Pyramid Schemes start off with the same vibe. Live life on the beach, party in Monte Carlo for the weekend, drive a luxury car provided by us, and it will change your life forever. Forget selling the health and beauty products that you can by for 1/2 the price online or at the mall. But sell the lifestyle. Don't you want to be rich? Don't you want your life to be one luxurious country club? Whatever you want, whenever you want, you get...

But there is a fine print you overlooked with all that smoke blowing in your face....

Your family will be in emotional ruins.
Your marriage will suffer.
Your children will turn on you.
People will lie..
People will die...
