Jonathan Wheelwright (Scott) is a New York Cheesecake photographer working out of a loft somewhere in NYC. He's got this "cool with it all" fiancée Susan (Laird). She's also rich. So the guys obviously got it made in the shade, right? Wrong.
Jonathan was traumatized when he was 19. His father tried to get hi laid by taking him to a local cat house. Instead of buying his bone, Johnny vomited. As a result he has got some serious women problems basically he can look but can not touch. Susan tries her best to get him to overcome his sexual hang-ups but when things get too compassionate Johnny pulls away declaring that "its not right" and "not till we're married." Susan is getting frustrated.
Things go on dysfunctionaly until Johnny is hired to do a shoot for a True Crime/Confidential/Spicy Detective Magazine coffee table type book illustrating Famous Sex Crimes. So Johnny now hires actors and stages that various scenarios, robberies, assaults, break-ins and entering, rapes, etc., etc.
All this photographic mayhem gets Johnny aroused. When he talks Susan into posing for one of the scenes his actual affections towards her and his sexual arousal over sex crime reenactments get out of control. Susan goes running out of the studio.
Everything finally goes Noirsville when a model comes in to pose for a stabbing scene who resembles both Susan and his mother.
Noirsville
The best thing going for Heat of Madness is its cinematography and its depiction of a New York photographers loft. A 5.5/6 out of ten for its visuals screencaps are from a Something Weird streamer.
