Brian T. Whitlock (GOWBTW) Erotica can reach to a level that is intensifying and scary at the same time. In "Possessed by the Night", it says it all. Here you have a horror script writer(Ted Prior) who goes to Chinatown and buys a strange pickled one-eyed creature. The thing in the jar does something to him both good and bad. He works on his scripts better, and he's an animal in bed. However, his wife began to get scared by his actions. It gets worse when the live-in secretary, Carol (Shannon Tweed-Simmons) enters the picture. When the supernatural aura gets to Carol, the sex games become very intense. Brought in by his boss Murray (Frank Sivero), Carol was not only sent to live with the couple, but to steal the scripts as well. Murray may be a sleaze, but he was about to get something in return he'll never forget: Double-crossed! Along with Tweed, and Sandhal Bergman, Chad McQueen plays a collector who want to go out on his own, and not take any guff from his boss. Other than sex, firepower has its part of the movie. Everyone decided to take out one another. This movie is indefinitely a class of its own. No one will ever see an erotic thriller like this one! 3 out of 5 stars.

gridoon "Possessed by a brain-like one-eyed thing in a jar" would be a more accurate title for this one, but I guess "the night" is shorter. Anyway, besides this "creature", the movie offers: a sweaty Shannon Tweed giving us fitness tips, a (then) 42-year-old Sandahl Bergman still sporting a PHENOMENAL athletic body, irrelevant martial arts fights with Chad McQueen, and timeless movie villain Henry Silva mostly sitting behind a desk and saying things like "I love bimbos!" and "Greed makes the world go round". So fans of B-movies should enjoy it, despite its pointless story and redundant subplots. Fred Olen Ray makes the most out of a probably tiny budget, and smartly keeps the running time short too.

zach33 Well Shannon does it again she makes just about any man want you know in front of the t.v. Tweed working out and getting all sweaty in a skimpy shirt and her breasts have never looked better. Then the high spead sex scene that is both violent and erotic in the same element. What is better in life then watching shannon tweed get naked she is the finest creation in all of mankind.

rookie-3 I'm a bit of a fan of Shannon Tweed and this movie shows her in the way I want it to be, hot and sexy.This movie contains most elements I like in B-grade erotic movies. It has mystical things, a man with high sexual desire, and girls with nice-sized boobs.The plot circles around an ancient mystical antique which can turn a good man into a bad one. The plot is weak and so is the acting but who cares. All I want is to see Shannon in action and I get just that. Although she doesn't undress as much as she should but in one scene she really pleases me as her fan. She works out in a gym with her sweaty breasts dancing around make me thank God for creating women. After that, we'll see her in an awesome high speed bed action.I definitely recommend this movie for Tweed's fans. For you who are not, you better watch something else.
