The American flag has been painted on bathing suits, bikinis, and directly on skin like a bathing suit for decades. From movies to television to magazine spreads, below are the most famous iconic flag-as-bikini interpretations from the past several decades.
Word is that “Deadgirl” is the hottest indie horror flick of the year. It’s said by some to be one of the smartest and most original American thrillers in recent memory. So, when I heard that the extended trailer had been leaked to the Web, I eagerly took a peek and found that the ingenious concept being heaped with so much praise was … zombie rape. As in, two high school losers find a naked girl zombie chained to a table in the basement of a deserted mental institution and decide to rape her repeatedly, mutilate her body and pimp her out as a sex slave. I guess the five-film “Saw” epic and two “Hostel” installments weren’t enough to satisfy the demand for torture porn?
“It’s very much about anger and helplessness, and taking it out on someone even more helpless”
As much as I’m inclined to rant about the sickness and depravity of this stuff, I’m not sure I can write off this film outright. Horror films have always toyed with arousal and fear, those two easily confused feelings. Increasingly, porn is following the same formula — just consider the viral genre-merger of 2 Girls, 1 Cup. The goal in both porn and horror flicks is often to elicit an extreme, adrenaline response and force us to confront our baser, animal selves. Based on online reviews, that is very much part of the movie’s story line.
Broadsheet contributor Mary Elizabeth Williams e-mailed me to say that she’s seen the movie and thinks it “says something at times powerful about masculinity.” As she put it, “The boys are picked on, they’re the bottom of the food chain. They have no future or power. So you get why they’re drawn to this literally underground world where they’re in control. It’s very much about anger and helplessness, and taking it out on someone even more helpless” — until she escapes and eats their braaains — “and it’s really not far off from stuff that does happen.”
Porn starStormy Daniels said on Thursday she doesn’t have the money or qualifications to run for U.S. Senate, but Louisiana residents seem to want her in the race.
ELK GROVE, CA — A 5th gradeteacher is unsure of her future today after she made a DVD of school memories and sent it home with her students, unaware that the DVD contained pornography.
The error wasn’t caught until after the video was sent home.
The DVD starts with a menu screen where parents could choose different school trips and functions to watch. When one of the videos is clicked, it shows students clapping in the classroom, then cuts to sex.
Oh, the joys of summer! The days last longer and the movies get explodier. For most of us, Summer means rubbing sunscreen on a loved one’s back… or at least we hope to find a loved one before Labor Day. In celebration of swimwear, we present one of our fleshiest quizzes yet: Name That Movie – Bathing Suit Edition!
