The Troma crowd is back with another low-low budget sex film. An angel (Irwin Corey) is sent back to earn his wings. He presides over a court case where, despite his obnoxious digestive problems, he attempts to bring a couple back together. As with other Troma films, it's bad enough that some of it may be fun to watch.
