Lap Dancing

This is the story of Angie, an innocent in H'wood who, in order to shed her inhibitions and win a starring role in a sexy movie, must learn to shed her clothes in a strip club. This movie should not be used as a recruiting tool for ingenues.

Tane' McClure and Kim Dawson are the two strippers who help Angie (McCommass, as lovely a young lady as has ever been naked on screen) discover her unrealized erotic potential. Both tend to go over the top a bit, but given the surreal nature of their characters and the situation, why not? Director Mike Sedan gives them their head (that's a horse term, not a sex term, folks); he's busy making sure the camera catches all the action. And there's plenty of it, onstage, backstage, in the club patrons' laps (thus the title), out in the alley, in a grocery store on the way home, and at whatever other locales I've forgotten.

Taken at its own level, this is a well-made cautionary tale about what you have to do to succeed in show biz. The fact that it's balderdash doesn't matter.

i have seen many b flicks in my day. this is by far one of the worst. i give lorissa her kodos she is a beautiful women however her acting leaves a bad taste in your mouth. i have seen her in others and it doesnt get better. if you want to watch t and a with no substance then rent or buy this video mccomas is nice to watch just turn down the volume so as to not subject yourself to her acting. another movie of the time called erotica was much better in the plot area not as nice to watch but much better to the intellect.

Lorissa McComas stars as Angie, an aspiring actress trying to make it in Hollywood. She just landed a screen test for her first movie, but it requires she strip down to nothing on camera, something she's never done before. Instead of waiting tables like many other aspiring actresses, she gets a job at a strip club so she can learn to be more comfortable with her clothes off in public. Two veteran strippers show her the ropes, the ups and the downs, and the reality of being in the business. There's plenty of naked women and a few sex scenes, including two with Angie in them, but this movie falls flat in many areas. It's not bad enough to call a failure, but it's not good enough to be put in the B-movie elite. Therefore, this is the first movie I give a normal C to.....no plus, no minus, just a C. Cinemax should be running this, give it a quick look during your normal channel surfing activities.

While the plot and production values are average for the genre, Lorissa McComas is not only breathtaking to watch (critical for this genre!), but shows that her acting ability is above-average as well with a truly heartfelt performance. Tane McClure gives a great performance as well, and shows off her talents as a truly gifted singer. All else being average, these two make it worth a watch.

I have seen and own this movie and I love it. Not because Kim Dawson is in it. Yes I think she has a rocking body. She plays a smoking, drinking and drug taking veteran Lap Dancer who has seen better days, but I love this movie as a whole. The acting seems fair and believable. Sammantha McMacomas was a good choice to portray the younger, innocent sister of Tane' McClure. Then there is the blind love interest of Sammantha. He starts out as a sort of guide/mentor. Sammantha's inexperience as a Lap dancer comes into play when she is performing for a man with his wife sitting next to him. Watch this movie to see what happens. I gotta give the movie a 10 out of 10 star rating
