An Unnatural Act

“An act of love can be called many things, but when it's with a ghost it can only be called...”

Synopsis

Michael is a struggling musician who's in love with Teri, a not so struggling actress. Driving to a gig one night, after a short but extremely sweet visit with Teri, Michael is run off the road and killed. An end to a beautiful relationship... or is it? Two months later, just when Teri begins to resume her life (and love life). Michael returns... as a ghost. His attempts to win her back lead him to a variety of sensuous situations, such as: lending a helping hand to two female tennis players in the massage room, giving Teri's roommate a wet dream she'll never forget, and making the hottest dominatrix in town do her unnatural best for his closest friend.
