Virgin in Europe - Laughable


I imagined that the reason for the kidnapping would be either very sinister or a bit more practical than going through all the trouble to get a virgin American girl in a European country which is obviously very rare but puhlease!!

Whats hilarious is that instead of giving up the girl the kidnapper chooses to put her in the room with the sheikh while her father is on a killing spree. Wow!! I mean I didn't know people are so desperate for a virgin in Europe.

Indeed there is a very deep meaning to this movie where the father has to go to such lengths to save his daughter's virginity.

They could have titled the movie - "Save the virgin in Europe" but then that would have given away the plot and also sounded like a parody. Wait! Was this movie a parody??


I'll never again trust IMDB ratings & reviews.. I know I said that before

They did know that she was a virgin till later.

I doubt she was still a virgin by the time she got to the sheik's boat.

I know they advertised her as such at the auction but still...

My question is what "buying" a girl involves. Say, he bought her for $500K and keeps her on a leash (drugs??)? If she runs away, then what?
