Mr. Skin’s DVD Pick of the Week

Assassination of a High School President (2008)
STUDIO: Sony
NUDE: Mischa Barton (breasts)
The dark comedy Assassination of a High School President (2008) stars Reece Thompson as a reporter on the school newspaper who uncovers a vast and evil conspiracy after he mistakenly accuses student-body president and popular jock Patrick James Taylor of stealing a stack of SAT tests. Mischa Barton appears as the disgraced jock’s girlfriend who mysteriously starts making moves on Reece after her boyfriend’s fall from grace. Mischa gets a B average in Toplessness 101 when she bares both boobs in the tub three separate times. If she stood up, she could raise her grade (among other things).

RSVP? No T&A?

Welcome back to Castle Rackula. I hope everyone enjoyed my look back at Cat People last week, because this is the week to momentarily abandon nostalgia and turn to the here and now.

Today The Uninvited opens up in theaters and I’m sad to say it contains no nudity.

A remake of the acclaimed 2003 South Korean fright flick Janghwa, Hongryeon, The Uninvited not only has no nudity in itself, but boasts a cast of never-nude actresses to boot!

It’s like a stake through the heart, this skinlessness!

Skingy as they are, many of the movie’s stars are tangentially connected to some great nudity. My hope is that pointing out all the opportunities to show skin these act-chests have blown (but not really) over the years will shame them into flashing flesh in the future.

Spectral Sacks, Ghostly Glutes, and Phantom Furburger

Hello my friends, and welcome back to Castle Rackula. That clinking of chains you hear upstairs is just something I have going with a couple of girls off of Craigslist, but the sound does put me in mind of those least substantial of supernatural species: ghosts.

Ghosts have a reputation for being depressive, gloomy, self-pitying, and no fun to be around. Having suffered through several extremely long dinner parties down in Knoxville with the Bell Witch and the pre-deceased Jim Varney (who was a delight, unlike his translucent ancestor), I can attest that that reputation is well earned.

But who can blame them? Unlike us vampires, who get to keep their bodies in perfect shape for all of eternity, the physical presence of ghosts is generally reduced to an unappealing and intangible blur.

But sometimes, the movies give us an improved version of reality. These ten movies contain naked specters who would turn Bill Murray and Harold Ramis from Ghostbusters into ghost-lusters!
