November 3, 1978
I Spit on Your Grave opens in theaters.

“Rape and revenge” stands as one of the most remarkable exploitation genres that, truly, only could have existed in the wild-and-wooly-bushed 1970s. And the Gone with the Wind of rape-and-revenge films is writer-director Meir Zarchi’s I Spit on Your Grave.

Willowy redhead Camille Keaton (granddaughter of silent-comedy great Buster Keaton) stars as a novelist whose solitary weekend retreat in the woods in interrupted by gang-rape. More than once. She then exacts payback via hanging, axe murder, and death by blood loss from a knife wound where a penis once was.

Spit played grindhouses and drive-ins deep into the 1980s and became an immediate blockbuster in the early days of home video.

Kate Bush? No! Kate Winslet's Bush!

Several gossip sites have reported today that the super sexy Kate Winslet utilized a merkin to cover up her dark blond pussy hair for her nude scenes in The Reader.

We thought this sounded like not-so-bald-erdash, so we took to the Skin Labs to analyze Kate's cute muff in the flick.

It looked as real as real can be, so we did a little private dick work and found the source of the quote--Allure magazine--and noticed that when the gossips reprinted it, they left the last two imperative sentences off the end!

After the cut, we transcribe the entire quote, in which Winslet reveals exclusively whether or not the bush in The Reader was real . . . or if she was just wigging out!

Each Tuesday, be sure to check in with Mr. Skin to get the complete skinny right here on the hottest DVD releases. Here is the randy round-up for the week of April 14, 2009.

Time to Get a Huge Jackman!

With all the hubbub surrounding Mr Skin's 10th Annual Anatomy Awards, we almost forgot about the Academy Awards!

The Oscars were held last night in Los Angeles, with the big winning being the Bollywood-meets-Hollywood Slumdog Millionaire leading the pack with eight awards, including Best Picture and Best Director for Danny Boyle.

We were a little taken aback by the snubbing of naked Marisa Tomei for her Best Supporting Actress role in The Wrestler--the statue went to Penelope Cruz. At last the lovely Marisa still has her Anatomy Award to proudly display!

And Kate Winslet took home the Best Actress award. Spanks to the Academy for recognizing Kate's fantastic, skintastic work in The Reader!

Lifetime Skinchievement Award May Have Backfired

After ten rod-stiffening nude appearances, from 1994’s Heavenly Creatures all the way up to this year’s Oscar-nominated The Reader, Kate Winslet has delivered a devastating blow to skin-ficionados everywhere.

When Time magazine asked the Golden Globe winner when she planned to bare her own golden globes again, the Titanic-tittied Winslet replied, "I think I won't. I can't keep getting away with it, and I don't want to become 'that actress who always gets her kit off'."

Apparently, “kit” is British slang for “fans.”

A One-Armed Salute to 2008’s Most Skintastic Achievements in Motion Picture and Television Sex and Nudity

Welcome to Mr Skin's annual Anatomy Awards, an alluring alternative to Hollywood’s other big popularity contest. During the past decade, Mr Skin’s Anatomy Awards has paid tribute to sexy starlets and nude celebrities with categories such as Best Breasts, Best Butt, and Best Lesbian Scene. For our 10th anniversary, Mr Skin’s Anatomy Awards is bigger, better, and more bare than ever. So forget about Best Picture and let's get to the Breast Pictures! Oscar who? We've got real golden globes right here!

Push the envelope, please...

While I'm getting ready for the 10th year of the much anticipated Anatomy Awards, here's my two cents about what's going on at the Oscars this year...

Best Actress Academy Award Nominations Are Simply Skintastic!

The Golden Globes were a feast for the eyes and thighs, as all female nominees for best actress roles were actresses who'd done great nudity.

And with the release of the full list of Oscar noms this morning, the nominudes continue. Especially in the Best Actress category!

It came as no surprise that double Globe winner Kate Winslet got the nod for her very impressive and very naked work in The Reader. And naked Angelina Jolie (and her exquisite ass) were a lock for Changeling.

The other noms are just as titillating, including one surprise name who has a secret past as one of the most awesomely naked stars of the 1980s!

Find out who it is--and see all the Oscar nominees nude--after the cut!
