"Avenging Angel"

Avenging Angel (1985) takes up where the original left off, changing actresses for the title role to Betsy Russel, as she looked 5 years older. Detective Andrews, it seems, became Molly's guardian after the first film, and she is now graduating from college, and studying to be a lawyer. Then some bad guys kill Andrews, and Molly/Angel comes back to avenge his death. They did some things very right. They started the film with a nice long full frontal shower scene from undercover cop Karin Mani, and brought back the lovable characters from the original, including Yoyo Charlie, Kit Carson, and Solly, the bull dyke. Unfortunately, they gave them way too much screen time without enough schtick and their performances became corny this time around. Angel was no longer the cute, good natured 15 year old, but a strong self-confident woman, and almost superhero. They introduced a baby, for Solly, left bad a hooker tenant, another street performer named sparkles, and two transvestites that left me totally cold. From there, it is pretty much a crime thriller with comic relief from Angel and her friends.

In addition to the great nudity from Karin Mai, several uncredited hookers show breasts in a shootout scene. IMDB readers have this about right at 3.8 of 10. While I loved the original, this one had none of the charm of the first. C-.

    Once Upon a Time in America (1984)

    Sometimes working on this web site is not such a bad way to pass one's time. Once Upon a Time in America is not only a great film, one of the best ever made, but is filled with great nudity, and the DVD is a flawless digital transfer.

    Maybe you don't agree with me that this is one of the best movies ever made, but I think it's fairly safe to say that it is the best movie you've ever seen with a name star doing an open-leg gyno shot (Elizabeth McGovern - collage 1) ...

    ... unless, of course,  you have seen Cunt Dykula

    The McGovern spread shot was never seen in the versions distributed in the USA (139 minutes, 227 minutes), but is on the DVD, which is the original Italian version ( 236 min). Leone's first cut was ten hours long, with a separate movie for the three time periods covered. His second offering was six hours with an intermission. They finally settled on this version - four hours with an intermission.

    Read the full-length review at scoopy.com. Actually, I don't know if I should call it a review. It is more of a love poem.

    Subject: Julia Parton

    Scoops,
    For the first time in my memory, I think Mr Skin made an identification booboo. In his caps from "Sex, Secrets and Lies", he identified the wrong woman as Julia Parton. Julia is the brunette on the right in caps 2, 7, 10 and 11...and she is the one not arrowed in cap 3. Haven't a clue who the other woman is.

    Here are the latest movie reviews available at scoopy.com.

    • The yellow asterisks indicate that I wrote the review, and am deluded into thinking it includes humor.
    • If there is a white asterisk, it means that there isn't any significant humor, but I inexplicably determined there might be something else of interest.
    • A blue asterisk indicates the review is written by Tuna (or Lawdog or Junior or C2000 or Realist or ICMS or Mick Locke, or somebody else besides me)
    • If there is no asterisk, I wrote it, but am too ashamed to admit it.

    'Caps and comments by Oz:

    "The Tonight Show"
    Lots of cleavage by Eva Mendes on The Tonight Show last week. It almost looks like a nip slip but I think it's wishful thinking.

    • Eva Mendes (1, 2, 3)


    "Wraith"
    Wraith is one of those sexy teen flicks that's combined with horror. Sherilyn Fenn and Vickie Benson go topless, and there's some other lovely ladies.


    "Trick or Treat"
    Trick or Treat is another such movie. We see topless shots of Elise Richard just before she is killed by some supernatural monster. There's also some cheesy shots of Lisa Orgolini.

    • Elise Richard (1, 2, 3)
    • Lisa Orgolini (1, 2)


    "The Baltimore Bullet"
    There's lots of cleavage in The Baltimore Bullet by Joyce Mandel and Cisse Cameron, who also gives a brief flash getting out of the shower.


    "The Lady Vanishes"
    There's no nudity in The Lady Vanishes but Cybill Shepherd spends most of the movie in a slinky evening gown with the occasional pokie showing through.

    • Cybill Shepherd (1, 2, 3)


    "The Buddy System"
    Similarly, there's no nudity in The Buddy System but Nancy Allen looks very sexy in some skimpy underwear. If you use your imagination it does become see-through.

    • Nancy Allen (1, 2)


    "Stroker Ace"
    Lots more cleavage in Stroker Ace by Cassandra Peterson (Elvira) and Loni Anderson. Loni Anderson also gives a quick flash as the wind picks up her dress.


    "The Gods Must Be Crazy II"
    Similarly, we see what Lena Farugia has to offer when her dress almost comes off in The Gods Must Be Crazy II.


    "A Kind of Loving"
    It was probably very racy in the 60s, but not a lot is showing by June Ritchie in A Kind of Loving.

    • June Ritchie (1, 2)


    "The Disappearing Act"
    A bit of cleavage and not much else by Carolyn Blair in The Disappearing Act.


    "Endgame"
    Toni Barry goes topless in Endgame.

    • Toni Barry (1, 2)


    "Sinners"
    The same again in Sinners, where Anne Marie Duff strips off before entering a convent.

    • Anne Marie Duff (1, 2)


    "Golden Boy"
    A brief topless view of Feo Schenk in Golden Boy.


    "Erotic Tales - The Waiting Room"
    Lots of leg by Bianca Koedam in an episode of Erotic Tales called The Waiting Room.

    • Bianca Koedam (1, 2)


    "Any Given Sunday"
    Some nice pokies by Christy Tummond in Any Given Sunday.


    "Wild On"
    I have sent some of these before but Wild On repeated the story, as they often do, and this time there was a lot more full nudity by Flower Edwards and Crystal Knight.

    • Flower Edwards (1, 2, 3)
    • Crystal Knight (1, 2, 3, 4)


    "Raid on Rommel"
    An upskirt by Danielle de Metz in Raid on Rommel.

    'Caps and comments by Hankster:

    Today it's a return to "Kingpin", and more 'caps of sexy Vanessa Angel.

    Variety
    Maeve Quinlan
    (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)

    Tiffany Limos
    (1, 2, 3)

    Fantastic 'caps by C2000 from the Larry Clark film "Ken Park". We see Quinlan's breasts while a dude dives deep between her legs. Linos shows breasts, close up gyno views (looks like there is a little finger lovin') and she's giving a BJ!

    Demi Moore
    (1, 2)

    A couple of excellent production stills of Moore showing off her bod on Letterman. If memory serves, this was a stunt to promote her movie "Striptease".
