On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are trying to make it big in this wild and crazy world. We watched the 1995 film from Paul Verhoeven, Showgirls.
Don\u2019t you just hate it when you try chasing your dreams of becoming a genuine star in Las Vegas and there\u2019s just the worst person in the world (according to you) standing in your way?
All you want to do is get naked in front of hundreds of people a night, dance like your life depends on it, and cash a big paycheck. Maybe along the way you could have the strangest back-breaking pool sex of your life.
But nooo! Your dreams of glitz and glamor are foiled at every turn by the old guard and, more to the point, the godawful men running the show. Maybe if there was an \u201caccident,\u201d then everything could go your way.
This is a bit of a divergence from our usual B movie fare, but it inspired a great conversation. Enjoy finding out what we rated this film, and friends, dance on!
