Lap Dancing

Why so many commentators see this film as worthless and a "turn off" eludes me. It has probably the best erotic dance (stripper) scenes I have ever seen on film. Kim Dawson is just awesome in her dance scene

I thought this was fine for what it is: good eroticism. Sexy ladies in various states of undress and stripping. It is what it is. Although it is not listed on it's page here on IMDB, there are more than one version of this movie. When I first saw it back around 1996 - 1997, there were scenes in it that are now either missing or have been shortened. Some of the dance scenes are missing some full frontal shots, there is a scene where Angie and another dancer are in a corner grocery store where they flash the clerk to get free groceries, that scene is now missing when shown on Cinemax or Showtime. The sex scenes are noticably shorter also. I don't know why these changes were made, it would be nice if someone out there could explain this. I have personally had a lap dance from Lorissa McComas when she toured this area, the movie does not do her justice. She is much more beautiful and sweet in person.

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

Mike Sedan, who does cameos in all his films, is Russ Meyer without all the pain, suffering, and death. He sets all his films in L.A. like John Waters sets them in Baltimore. Whatever...

Lap Dancing is a mighty tame movie to me, because I live in a city that has clubs more graphic than this one. Lorissa McComas (sexy woman, no talent, man made puppies) plays a Mid-West transplant who wants to be an actress. Frustrated by failed attempts at winning movie roles, her room mate (Tane McClure) tells her that she should check out the gentlemen's club that she works at for "inspiration". She works there for a week and discovers its seedy underbelly.

With all sorts of the usual tricks in the softcore genre, and a few new ones, Lap Dancing does a pretty good job of depicting the real world. From the opening credits of city life on a L.A. street, to a dancer prostituting herself, to another dancer who has an abusive boyfriend, it's no fairy tale like Striptease was. Sadly, the acting is awful and the script was written by someone who uses "politically correct prose". However, the dance numbers on the stage are pretty good and they use some neat original music for them. Yet another pointless nudie, but it has some value. Mike Sedan's "Insatiable Wives" and "Mischievious" are also highly recommended as well.

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.
