October 25, 2002 Then, when Cheryl vanished in 1982, she became one of cinema’s most enigmatic figures, prompting fans to wonder for decades what became of their beloved Rainbeaux. Tragically, news of Ms. Smith succumbing to liver disease hit just as Synapse Films began work on a special-edition DVD of one of her most sought-after titles, Lemora (1973). Thanks to her legion of devotees, though, the legacy of Cheryl “Rainbeaux” Smith lives on. Rah-rah-raw, forevermore. October 28, 2007 * Such displays make for a fitting tribute to the man and his (extremely) wet American dream.
Cheerleader-movie icon Cheryl “Rainbeaux” Smith dies.
After a string of remarkable exploitation films such as The Swinging Cheerleaders (1974), The Pom Pom Girls (1976), Massacre at Central High (1976), and The Incredible Melting Man (1977), Cheryl “Rainbeaux” Smith ruled as the most singularly beguiling starlet of the drive-in era.

Playboy’s December 2007 issue showcases Kim Kardashian nude.
Sir Mix-a-Lot may not have had Kim Kardashian in mind when he composed “Baby Got Back”, but when marveling at the sumptuously sizable seat meat of this Hollywood heiress, one wonders who else could more perfectly embody that rump-shaking number.
For its 2007 holiday issue, Playboy presented readers with a perfectly overstuffed gift package in the form of a Kim Kardashian nude layout that showcased every inch of her volcanically voluptuous form, including that larger-than-lust bodacious backside in all its beauteous gluteus glory.

Looker, the cult favorite featuring Susan Dey’s nude debut, opens in theaters.
In the 1990s, science fiction writer Michael Crichton struck blockbuster gold by authoring Jurassic Park and co-creating TV’s ER.
On his way toward that mega-success, Crichton wrote and directed the futuristic thriller Looker, which anticipated Hollywood’s obsession with physical perfection and, more importantly, provided multiple looks at Susan Dey, best known as cutie-pie keyboard player Laurie on the bubblegum sitcom The Partridge Family, in the buff.

Boogie Nights, starring Heather Graham and Julianne Moore nude, skates into theaters.
Filmmaker Paul Thomas Anderson’s Boogie Nights is a heady blast from the hedonistic 1970s, when hardcore porn took the form of actual feature-length movies that played in actual movie theaters.
Mark Wahlberg became a star as power-tooled screen stud Dirk Diggler, while Burt Reynolds scored an Academy Award nomination for his work as smut auteur Jack Horner.
As with actual dirty movies, though, Boogie Nights’ main thrust is its leading ladies: redhead Julianne Moore is the picture of mature allure as a proto-M.I.L.F. named Amber Waves, and impossibly hot-bodied Heather Graham achieved immediate erotic immortality by donning skates and nothing else for her part as Rollergirl.

Hustler publisher Larry Flynt is born.
Whelped out on a log-cabin floor in Magoffin County, Kentucky, Lawrence Claxton Flynt would ultimately grow up to publish Hustler magazine and forever reshape not only the face (among other organs) of adult entertainment, but the very laws of our United States.
This amazing journey from backwoods roughneck to strip-club kingpin to crippled First Amendment martyr to continually crusading multimedia Hustler hero is powerfully laid out in Milos Forman’s acclaimed biopic The People vs. Larry Flynt (1996), where we also get to see Courtney Love’s bare beaver.
