One of the earliest films featuring the name Scott Jeffrey, that we reviewed here on Nerdly, was Darker Shades of Elise, a film Jeffrey produced back in 2017 and a film that didn’t really reflect where the rest of the actor turned director/producer’s oeuvre would head.

No, with Graphic Desires the company bring us back to another time, the 90s post-Basic Instinct, with another erotic thriller.
