8/08: Showing vast improvement in all areas, Poison Ivy: The New Seduction is the best picture of the franchise.

For the first time, I now know what Poison Ivy is all about. The performances are excellent for a B movie. There's plenty of nudity throughout, and the scenes are a mix of sexy and average. What works the best is Violet's diabolical, devious scheme to be at the top.

Jaime Pressly may not be the most expressive actress alive, but she takes command of the role and thus gets the job done. I also like Megan Edwards as the confused Meg Greer who tries to live the good life.

However, the disappointing ending prevents me from giving this a higher rating than '7'. No matter what, it's superior to the last two parts. Yes, Poison Ivy: The New Seduction is a trashy and slutty movie, but it's all in good trashy and slutty fun.

All in all, of the entire franchise, Poison Ivy: The New Seduction is the only one worth watching.
