- Showgirls Open in Theaters, Rewrites the History of the Pooniverse -- September 22, 1995
Javascript and Flash 9.0.124 or greater required to play videos
And the world got its first look at the ultimate orgiastic, over-the-topless, absolutely skinsane NC-17-rated masterpiece (of ass) that we all know and worship as Showgirls on this date in 1995.
Ridiculously smeared as “the worst movie ever made” upon its release, this volcanically energetic, neon-sopped saga of a criminally insane exotic dancer’s ruthless rise to Queen of the Las Vegas Strip was immediately championed by adventurous film skin-thusiasts and nurtured into an enduring cult classic.
The general public caught on once Showgirls hit video and, today, the movie is hailed by even the snootiest critics as a brilliant, hyper-kinetic pop-art opus courtesy of visionary Dutch director Paul Verhoeven.
Showgirls is Mr. Skin’s single favorite film of all time. Press play to Elizabeth Berkley administer human history’s most explosive lap dance while her bisexual rival, Gina Gershon, leers on.

The theater erupted in applause.
