Hill Street Blacks 2
"The arresting developments continue in the sequel to the original adult hit. This time out, the police chief decides that prostitution is getting a little too widespread and calls for a crackdown on carnality. But little does he know that when cornered, these vivacious vixens will fight back the only way they know how -- with raw, unadulterated sex. Gorgeous Angel Kelly shines in the starring role, leading the men in blue down the wanton road to sexual excess with a smile on her face and a wiggle in her walk. She's more irresistible than a box full of freshly-made donuts to these sex-crazed beat cops! Things are definitely shaking down at the hill, and you can be sure that it's no earthquake."
