Director Chadd Harbold uses the jazzy technique of telling the story out of order to keep the plot moving. But nothing can resuscitate this nasty pulpy mess.

An archetypal rehash of a familiar story from yesteryear, L.A Seduction fails to fully reignite audience interest in the near forgotten sub-genre of film.

Develops as a potentially trashy sexy thriller only to shift gears midway to supply motives to boring villains with gross intentions barreling back to catchup with an indecipherable and poorly-filmed conclusion.

An inert, meandering and vapid thriller low on both style and substance.
