My name is Jeff and his name is Gary. We are two hooligans who live in an apartment in the middle of Austin Texas for no apparent reason. We offer a white trash perspective on both older and contemporary films. Our episodes are not "reviews" so much as they are "discussions". Our goal is to abandon any pretense and bring a sense of spontaneity to the table. We welcome feedback so please feel free to leave any comments if you'd like.

Showgirls Review
Join us as we discuss Paul Verhoeven's camp classic, Showgirls in all of it's sleazy glory. LONG LIVE NOMI MALONE!
Not since Quigley down under have ever seen a more Oscar deserving perfomance given to us by the legendary Elizabeth Berkley."Thanks it's Versase !" that quote sends chills up my spine everytime I think of it, so powerful! The pool scene, "so angelic and spellbinding" raves Rex Reed. Thank you for paying such close attention to detail on the monumental rape scene. It was a real tribute to Jodi foster's performance in "Taxi Driver" a very medoicre film by that some Scoresseicee guy. I have to share a very personal story. This film was so profound that it is soley is responsible for me and friend dropping out of college because a we could not stop watching it. I know it sounds a little farfetched, but true. That friend of mine is now really really famous and he owes it all to Elizabeth Berkley. She has changed so many lives with this film. A true patroitic humanitarian. I weep for the completion of the trilogy.

ReplyDeleteRest assured...Paul Verhoeven is hard at work on the sequel, tentatively titled, "ShowGirls 2: The Search for More Burgers"
