I gave this film a 9 out of 10, because it was exactly what I expected it to be.
... View MoreIt isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
... View MoreThe movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
... View MoreOne of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
... View MoreThis movie caused me considerable drama. I saw it donkey years ago, but had forgotten virtually everything, and the only clue was "dual personality Lisa/Beth" when I turned to I Need To Know for help last year. Thank you, Star-Core!Movies by mad people for mad people. In that category, NIGHT CLUB scores highly. It is a highly effective showcase for the beauty of Elizabeth Kaitan who appears in a dual role.Look, I am not saying it's a wonderful movie, don't get me wrong. But everybody else (except Mr. Woody Anders) is UNFAIRLY giving it the short end of the stick. This is a misunderstood movie with a misnomer of a title. It is actually a small-scale psychological thriller, with, of course, a good measure of exploitation thrown in. In the shape of Elizabeth Kaitan, who is simply adorably marvelous, and anybody saying any different is just sour-grapes envious. For Elizabeth is A+ 100% super-fine, a dream-girl straight from the Dream Factory, wow.Look, it's an unlikely movie, and admittedly unseemly, but Elizabeth Kaitan is a contender for One Of The Prettiest Girls On Film EVER!At first I thought "Shattered Glass" but this movie should have been called "Wildest Dreams" because this Nick guy is in limbo between wishful fantasy and a reality he can't keep up with. Which is why so many reviewers are irked by the wishy-washy male lead.Don't dismiss it simply because you don't understand it. This guy's pretty wife left him, and as his only keepsake of her, he is left with a videotaped recording. Being a dreamer, he turns her in his mind to his ultimate fantasy girl, then, weak-willed as he is, gets delusional, and sees his dream become reality, only this dream is not meant for love, being totally devoid of loyalty. In other words, what you see as the movie here, most of this happens in Nick's mind, Nick is coo-coo and haunted by the memories of a lost love.Well, that's my interpretation.The movie has an escalating level of being explicit in regards to on-screen intimacy. The bare breasts getting pawed, must have been an afternoon's work to get it filmed. Imagine! Decades ago, I found it harrowing to watch. While a blue movie has no emotion, this one has it in spades. Makes it all the more controversial. Forget about Sharon Stone in BASIC INSTINCT. This one gets truly explicit. I've yet to see anything quite as hands-on like that scene in a mainstream movie......and anything similar in a blue movie would lack the impact it has here. Because of Elizabeth's acting, the girl is very real.Summed up, this flick truly delivers to a flesh connoisseur's delight. Prime rib. Grade A. Succulent and juicy.I damn well bought the DANGEROUS BABES box-set to get to this title, and believe me, there are SOME REAL STINKERS in that one, and then some people have the temerity to say that NIGHT CLUB is "the worst I've ever seen?" Elizabeth is a Grade A classy beauty, and I could watch rolls and rolls more. Do read Mr. Woody Anders's review again, those are the valid complaints, yes, the male lead* gives off a weak vibe.*Then again, the male lead, Nick Hoppe, was THE DRIVING FORCE BEHIND THE ENTIRE PRODUCTION! This is his dream here, he got it filmed, and it led to the casting of this beautiful angel- faced girl... she is pure music...........people, I may be a fool, but I know what I like!
... View MoreA young couple struggle to set up a new night club based in an old warehouse. Unfortunately, they borrowed money from the mob in order to get the project moving, money the gangsters now want paid back with interest.Sadly, this is a tedious, slow paced and excessively talky drama from b-movie purveyors Crown International Pictures. It's a very basic film indeed with the limited ambition and budget pretty seriously evident at all times. It seemed to consist primarily of scenes involving lead actor Nicholas Hoppe, who is a truly terrible actor. His annoying performance drives this one into the ground and you will be doing extremely well to be in the least bit bothered about what happens to him or his club. There's little in the way of thrills to be found here besides some gangsters threatening Hoppe's character and some not very interesting soft-core sex scenes. It was so tiresome that I glazed over towards the end and zoned out so completely that the next thing I noticed was the night club was up and running and events ending sweetly for Hoppe. So in my half-asleep state, I clearly must have missed some key action that got us to this happy conclusion. I can't help but feeling I didn't miss very much though and just accepted that it all must've ended well for Hoppe somehow – at least it ended well for someone because if you sit through this I daresay you'll not feel so clever by the conclusion.
... View MoreThe Plot.A young married couple try to convert an old warehouse into a nightclub, but face opposition from both the council and local mobsters.The opening credits resemble a porno movie from the 80s. The look of the film is OK. the color pops. The blonde wife is do-able. and that's about where it ends.The acting is horrible. Especially the blonde with the BJ lips. She is atrocious and must have gotten the role on the casting couch. That would have been a more worthwhile video to watch!Within 2 minutes of the film she's having sex. Must have been to keep her mouth shut. She's THAT bad. The funniest thing is her bio on IMDb is gigantic only she hasn't worked since 1999 and a lot of her roles have been R rated T&A films or uncredited roles. Plus it actually makes mention of her first film being Waitress!This is funny because it was an early Troma film and literally anyone who showed up got a part! I have a tone of friends who were in it. They did that it get buzz and fill seats. Joe Schmo tells you he's in the movie and you go see it! What joke this chick is.The movie is horrendous with no real plot or scene of interest.
... View MoreMarried couple decide to open a nightclub in an old factory and have to battle to mob, local planners and each other if they ever want to get the place open.Dull drama that I found in a dreadful collection of supposed thrillers, this is the sort of film that makes you wonder why anyone bothered at all. I was never interested at any point thought the lead character was an immature bore. Why anyone went along with him for any reason is beyond me, but then again I'm not one of the fictional characters in the movie.Honestly fifteen minutes in I kind of stopped watching and was doing other things around the house hoping that at some point this film would do something interesting, but it never did.My advise is not to watch the film and send any print you run across to the nearest manufacturer of guitar picks for recycling.
