Customer Reviews

Flesh For Fantasy
Contrary to what others might say, this is a good little disc for what it is. Every year, a nationwide chain of strip clubs called Deja Vu holds their Showgirl of the Year competition to promote dancers in various regions. Reginal finalists all descend upon the North Hollywood branch of the chain for the final competition.

This DVD chronicles that competition...sort of. It's never made clear whether this is a recording of one year's competition or a copilation of entrants from various years (though the consistent similiarity of the faces in the crowd shots seem to confirm the former theory). We are given visuals of several attractive performers as they go through their setpiece performances while trying to win the title. The video quality is sharp enough to cut glass, and we're frequently treated to two or three camera angles. The result is a more complete version of the performance than you'd get in a club. The camera work is very well done, with none of the harsh lighting or shaking steadicam work that tends to highlight such films.

That said, there are a few areas where this disc loses points. The first is sound; rather than give us the noise of the raccus crowd or the music the girls selected for their performances, Peach DVD has simply layered generic techno loops over each performance. The result is a little disjointed, as the movements of the dancers almost never syncs with the movement, and in a few cases the girls speak or sing as part of their performance, but their words are lost to posterity. Either the cameraman or the editor is also somewhat overenamoured of the strobe effect, using it for more than half of each of the last few girls' performances.

The disc also loses some points for deceptive advertsing. The package back promises a slew of extras that are nowhere to be seen on the disc; instead we're simply offered a few previews of other titles, some of which are just teasers with little actual flesh revealed (and let's face it, that's why we buy DVDs like this right?); one of them is literally just a shot of an actress getting makeup applied while her friend chats inanely about trivialities from the sidelines!

Still, for [money] this is a decent deal on a decent disc. If you're a fan of nude performances or strip clubs in general, this will make a fine addition to that pile of DVDs you keep in the shoebox under your side of the bed.

boring
Very poor camera work, low quality, low quantity, expensive, DVD format is worse to navigate than VHS, not recommended. Too bad, there are some babes on camera, but you don't get a good look at any. Want my copy?

Better than what other reviewers have said
Let me begin by saying that I like stripping DVDs, and this is a stripping DVD so if you don't like that particular sub-genre then you won't like this.

Is it a perfect example? No. Four stars is a little generous, but it's better than three; more like three and a half. I like natural breasts and there aren't many to be seen here among the nine women who showcase themselves. I'm also a fan of junk in the trunk and you won't get a lot of it here.

But you see everything, topless, bottomless, of all of these women except in one very noteworthy case. One of the best-looking ones never shows her nether regions...or, rather, the camera never captures them. Strips to nothing then bends over toward the crowd, but the camera doesn't give you the same angles that the crowd sees. For that segment alone I almost gave this three stars.

Despite the fact that this is stripping--calling these women "showgirls" is likely a little insulting to those who work the Vegas circuit--it isn't tawdry. The women are naked and you see every inch of them, but it isn't hyper-sexualized. The women really are performers, genuine entertainers who obviously put a lot of time and effort into what they do. Example: One women blindfolds herself, climbs to the very top of one of the poles on stage (I'm guessing at least 12 feet up), flips upside down, lets go with her hands and then slides FAST face-first down the pole. Somehow--I'm still not sure how--she stops just inches from bashing her nose on the floor. Another example: One of the contestants re-enacts the death scene from "Romeo and Juliet," including pantomimed crying. Nude, of course.

This DVD is worth a buy if you can get for less than $10 as I did.
