1982's "Roommates" is an oddity in the adult film industry. The feature isn't out to titillate, going a more dramatic route with its study of three women battling all kinds of demons and disappointments in their lives. It's a tale of New York City struggling from director Chuck Vincent and screenwriter Rick Marx, who place their focus on personal problems and horrific situations of survival. It's a bleak movie, going against expectations for X-rated entertainment, and such severity keeps it interesting, even while storytelling turns are a little too rough to ride at times.
