pierce dvd 1

Mucophiliacs, rejoice: Contagion comes out on DVD this week ,so you can watch Marion Cotillard and Kate Winslet come down with the sniffles in the privacy of your own cryogenic sneeze chamber. For those who just want to see some full frontal nudity (bo-ring!), you can see the prolific Ms. Winslet's skinset, along with Evan Rachel Wood's full-frontal debut, in Mildred Pierce, nude on DVD and Blu-ray.

Plus, Season 2 of FX's cowboy cop drama Justified is non-nude but notable on DVD and Blu-ray, as are Shark Night, starring Sara Paxton and a series of string bikinis, and the DVD re-release of Lost in Translation (2003), starring Scarlett Johansson's sheer panties:

pierce dvd 2The HBO miniseries Mildred Pierce (2011) may be a remake of a Joan Crawford star vehicle, but it differs from the earlier version in two ways. First, it’s 3 hours longer. Second, and more importantly, it’s got infinitely more skin. Kate Winslet stars as the titular Mildred, a driven and independent woman who works her way up from a lowly “hash joint” waitress to owner of a successful restaurant chain. She is also a single mother to spoiled, money-hungry Veda (Evan Rachel Wood), who continually acts out to hurt her long-suffering mother. Kate is skinfamous for her bold choices in nudity, and from the first episode of Mildred Pierce it’s clear her nude streak will not be ending any time soon. The mini-series also contains the much-buzzed about full frontal debut of Evan Rachel Wood, who dons a muff flap in order to give historically accurate bush.

Critically acclaimed FX series Justified centers on Raylan Givens (Timothy Oliphant), a U.S. Marshal with an justified dvdold-fashioned moral code. Raylan believes in vigilante justice and being polite to the ladyfolk, the former of which puts him at odds with his bosses as well as criminals (no one seems to mind his treatment of the ladyfolk, though). Back in rural Kentucky after a “justified” (get it?) shooting at his old U.S. Marshal post in South Florida, Raylan confronts his unsavory past as he struggles to maintain law and order in his wild backwoods home. You won’t struggle to maintain your wood with the help of Justified’s female cast, including honky-tonk hotties Joelle Carter and Natalie Zea. In the second season guest star Rebecca Creskoff turns the heat up a notch as she stops our hero mid-baseball story by casually opening her robe to reveal black bra and panties. Guess thinking about baseball doesn’t always work!

Sharpen your forks, Skin fans, because Shark Night (2011) is a feeding frenzy of blood, guts and hot girls in bikinis. (T)it’s a familiar tale: a group of seven teenagers- skincluding bikini babes Sara Paxton,Courtney Hope, Katharine McPhee and Christine Quinn- converge on a friend’s cabin in the Louisiana gulf for a summer of sand, surf and sex. But their perfect getaway turns into a bloody nightmare when a man-eating shark invades the tranquil waters. Who will survive? (Mr. Skin hopes it’s the hot chicks in the bikinis!)
