Gotham (1988):
For mainstream moviegoers, 2004's Sideways seemed to
launch Virginia Madsen from total obscurity to stardom, or at least
near to stardom. She has always been an
A-list star in our world. I, for one, could never figure out why she
never crossed over to the Big Show before Sideways. For nearly 20
years she has been gorgeous, stylish, memorable, curvy, a good
actress, and willing to do what it takes - including nudity, of
course.
One of the coolest and nudest roles of her voluptuous
youth was Gotham. Here is a film clip with a few of her most memorable
moments from that film.
Mercy (2000):
Peta Wilson, the TV version of La Femme Nikita, is a
major babe. Here is the apex of her career nudity.
Eight-Legged Freaks (2002):
I'm sure you know who Scarlett Johansson is. She's
not only one of the better young actresses, but she probably has the
best rack in Hollywood. Next year she will be in a Woody Allen movie
called ... (wait for it) ... "Scoop." I presume it is my life
story. Unfortunately, they did not cast me as myself, but hired
Wolverine to do my love scenes with Scarlett. Damn you, Woodman!
There is no nudity in this little clip. It's just Scarlett, age 17,
showing off her already massive chest.

The Worst Films of 2005
- I took a look at all the films rated below 10 at RT, all the
films below 32/100 (one and a quarter stars out of four) at
Metacritic, and all the films with IMDb scores below 3.8 (150 or
more votes).
- The three different sources produce three different selections:
- IMDb: In the Mix, 1.5
- RT: Kings' Ransom, 0%
- Metacritic: Chaos, 3/100 (Impressive! Sage Stallone continues
the family tradition.)
- Twelve films made all three lists, and they form the linked
chart. The consensus choice for worst picture did not finish on the
bottom of any of the three lists, but finished close to the bottom
on every criterion. That would be Ewe Boll's timeless masterpiece,
Alone in the Dark.
- Ewe made a good run at having the worst TWO films of the year.
BloodRayne is rated 2.6 at IMDb, but opens four days too late to
make it into 2005.

- Yes, it's porn, and yes, it's completely guilt-free because they
call it art. Genius!
- Seriously - beautiful girls stark naked.
Rolling Stone's
Mavericks, Renegades, and Troublemakers of 2005
The Pats finally start to look good, just in time for the playoffs.
They held the Bucs to a mere 138 yards of offense, and left
Cadillac Williams stalled in the garage. This marks the third straight
game in which the Pats have held the opposition below 200 yards.
And this wasn't against some pussies. The Bucs were 9-4 coming
into the game! This is the first time all year that the Pats have
managed to dominate a team with a winning record.
They even used a little razzle-dazzle, with a touchdown pass to a
lineman on a tackle-eligible play.

VIDEO:
This year's Duncan Yo-Yo Champion
This is a complete 53-minute Bill Hicks performance.
- There is a tremendous amount of audience interaction, and Bill
is particularly raunchy and angry.
- This is not a professionally recorded performance, but the sound
is comprehensible, and it's a rare experience.

- This is not a quickie web page, but a complete scholarly book

High concept of the day:
"Masked Mexican Midget Wrestlers"
- They great thing about "Masked Mexican Midget Wrestling" is that
it's really open to all nationalities. Let's face it - with masks
on, they could be little Swedish guys.
- In fact, you don't even have to be a "midget." They could be
full-sized Japanese guys.
- As a matter of fact, I think the one on the left is Judi Dench!

Yellow asterisk: funny (maybe). White asterisk: expanded format.

"The Degenerate"
The Degenerate (1969) is a B & W grind house effort with the sort of open plot premise that allows any and all nudity and sex. A bored lesbian (Uta Erikson) answers an ad in a sex paper classified for exhibitionist women, and takes the job at a remote house. The house is full of women, also all volunteers, who seem to be there to satisfy the fantasies of the owner, Michael Findlay, who also wrote and directed.
Scenes include bondage, nude dancing, shoving corn cobs inside a woman (we don't actually see the insertion), and mild lesbian touching. It turns out that Findlay's assistant (Leo Heinz) has a personal agenda, which was no surprise by the time they tired of getting women naked.
I was only able to identify Uta Erikson, who showed everything in several scenes, and Jane Banzet, who only showed breasts. Most of the women did full frontal and rear nudity, and there were very few seconds of running time that didn't include at least one naked woman.
IMDb readers have this at 6.9, but based on only 9 votes. It will be of interest to movie historians, and the fetish content will have a small audience as well. Otherwise, it was made from the raincoat crowd, and has little of substance. The image quality is not very good, but some of the scenes are imaginative, and somewhat interesting. This is a C-, largely do to the huge amount of flesh displayed.

'Caps and comments by Spaz:
"Caged Fear"
"Caged Fear" (1992) aka "Hotel Oklahoma" is a dreadful women-in-prison movie with all the cliches but none of the nudity. Kristen Cloke is the falsely imprisoned girlfriend who shows various amounts of nudity with some of the other inmates but it's Chuckie Spradling who steals the movie as the sexy warden's assistant.

"Timecop"
"Timecop" (1994) is a sci-fi flick starring Van Damme. Mia Sara has the obligatory nude sex scene with the Ass Muscles from Brussels while Gloria Reuben looks great in a wet t-shirt. Laura Murdoch is full frontal while spread eagled as a virtual reality hooker.

"Teenage Space Vampires"(1998)
Very hokey sci-fi almost as bad as the title sounds. Only dug out of obscurity because it stars Lindy Booth in her very first movie. No nudity but Lindy and German actress Bianca Brad are very sexy.

"L'Homme à tout faire"
"L'Homme à tout faire" (1980) aka "The Handyman" is a French Canadian romance but with none of the nudity a British sex comedy of a similar theme would have had. Andree Pelletier takes off her blouse but keeps on her brassiere.
