'Donkey Punch' struggles to sustain fear

Three Yorkshire lasses head for Mallorca, touring the local bars where they meet some likely London lads.

When the boys reveal they all crew on a nearby boat, the girls agree to continue the party back on board. But a sex romp between the group ends in tragedy when one of the guys is goaded into performing a dangerous sex act that goes wrong.

The cramped confines of the yacht provide a claustrophobic setting as the film sails into choppy waters. Unfortunately, logic tumbles overboard as director Blackburn struggles to sustain the fear while killing off the cast.
