10 - FLASHDANCE [1983] </p>
<p>
#09 - MIDNIGHT TEASE [1994] </p>

<p>
#08 - THE DARK DANCER [1995]
Another unerotic thriller, this one revolves around a psychologist by day and stripper by night (how original!). Bottom line: Just about any Shannon Tweed film could occupy this spot! </p>
<p>
#07 - DEBBIE DOES DALLAS: THE NEXT GENERATION [1997]
</p>
<p>
#06 - BLAZE [1989]
</p>

#05 - THE GORE GORE GIRLS [1972]
More gory killings at a strip club, this legendary sleazefest was directed by the "Godfather of Gore" himself, Herschell Gordon Lewis (Blood Feast). Priceless dialogue: "Ah, face mutilated with a meat tenderizer, throat slit and this one had her ass beat in . . ." </p>
<p>
#04 - MONDO TOPLESS [1966] </p>
<p>
#03 - STRIPPED TO KILL [1987]
More brutal murders, this time at a strip club called "Rock Bottom." This is the actual tagline for the film (I'm not kidding!): "A Maniac is Killing Strippers. Detective Sheehan Has One Weapon to Stop Him. Her Body." </p>

#02 - STRIPTEASE [1996]
What happens when you take a biting satire from Carl Hiaasen, water it down and choose Demi Moore and Burt Reynolds to play the leads? You're absolutely correct, the result is an unmitigated disaster. Moore tries to turn her role as a Ft. Lauderdale stripper into something out of A Streetcar Named Desire, while her supporting cast hams it up, unbeknownst to her dramatic intentions. At least Burt Reynolds (clad in one of his ridiculous toupees) has given up his goal of being taken seriously as an actor. Ving Rhames does manage to steal some scenes as the club's bad-ass bouncer. </p>

#01 - SHOWGIRLS [1995]
A thoroughly laughable and unerotic look at the sleazy side of Las Vegas strippers, this turkey stars the untalented Elizabeth Berkley ("Saved by the Bell"), a spunky but brain-dead dancer named "Nomi" who works her way up the showbiz ladder from lap dancer to showgirl. Kyle MacLachlan, looking and acting just as he did when he portrayed Ray Manzarek in The Doors, plays Nomi's boyfriend, "Zack" (effectively terminating his once-promising career). Sample dialogue: "You got low self-esteem baby, you're a fantastic fuck." </p>
