At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

It is an action movie, story grip is well, music quality, and special effect are very weak, Sarah has ambition to go Paris, bring her a new life, her life is so terrible, she wanted to quite her life, but in the movie, there is much violence, I think it should not be like this enough, the killing one person to another, without any necessary reason, it makes too much bothered.I liked the Jade (Tommie-Amber) character, she is really nice girl, I liked her innocence, Sarah was too much involved to pursue her dreams,Direction was good, but most of the characters didn't well, there was lack of expression and acting, the ending was in just 10 minutes, much faster... and that mad this whole movie, to low profile. Though it is a movie you will not regret to watch.

Ignore the 70s-style sleazy drive in movie box art. For a drug gangsters versus strippers exploitation movie, this one has surprisingly little overt violence and practically no nudity. Are the creators really that unaware of audience expectations in these matters? Hunh.Anyway, that said, it's not awful for what it is, but still not very good, and not recommended. The positives? The lighting and camera-work show evidence of operator familiarity, at least, a positive sign for any ultra-low budget production, many of which look like a wedding video shot by somebody's uncle. And the cast work hard to seem earnest, which is not quite the same as actually being good in their roles, but it's a start.The negatives are everything else. There are really no surprises in the routine running-from-the-mob plot line and the low budget forces the creators to keep their artistic and visual ambitions modest. There are no flashy visuals here, as everything was shot in found (ie cheaply rented) interiors and deserted roads and parking lots, likely very late at night when nobody was around checking on shooting permits. The script is pedestrian to be kind and the whole thing comes off as if the creators were happy just to have made a movie, any movie. Quality and originality were simply not in the budget.

STRIPPED NAKED is a lot of fun, with a sexy anti-heroine protagonist, who has a tiny black heart and great big Technicolor dreams of what she would do with $90,000 and $90,000 worth of methamphetamines.Because the movie is so brightly lit and doesn't utilize the conventional shadowy visual language commonly associated with Noir Cinema, it's genuine noir aspects will probably be overlooked. But NOIR it is, reflective of a light-hearted James M. Cain story; fast moving and following grifters on the make.Kassie finds herself holding a bag of money and a bag of drugs, and sees her dreams of moving to France becoming a possibility. She returns home to take care of some loose ends, and of course her plans begin to get complicated. Her recently ex-ed boyfriend, her admiring roommate/lover, and her sleazy boss all unwittingly throw monkey wrenches into plans they don't even know she has, while (of course) a hit-man arrives looking for his boss's money and drugs. Meanwhile, someone in town is randomly killing some of the town's shadier denizens.Sarah Allen is startlingly sexy and alluring. Her blue eyes and elfin face are transfixing to look at. It's an unusual choice on the part of the filmmakers to make her as unlikeable and cold hearted as they do. (Think Linda Fiorentino in The Last Seduction), but it also makes the ending less predictable. A woman this naughty is less likely to earn a happy ending, after all.The Russ Meyer-esquire cover art and the strip club setting promise more lurid thrills than are actually on hand. The movie is fairly free of blood, sex, nudity, or violence, which when it happens, is not very graphic, but it is still a fun story.This is the kind of movie that I'm not sure why it was made, but I'm glad it was. A nice, fun afternoon movie to watch over lunch. Good show.

I sat down with my dinner and no expectation as I watched this movie, and I was sorely disappointed by one of the former two.This movie might have had a promising script on paper, but it translated poorly onto the screen. There was a serious lack of coherency throughout this movie. Just too many things didn't really add up and wouldn't have played out the way they did in the movie.Anyway, as for the acting, well actually here there was a surprisingly nice job being done. I think the only face I recognized here was Linden Ashby. But regardless of known or unknown talents, the performances of the actors and actresses in "Stripped Naked" was believable and good. Even the lizard did a good job! haha...I think this movie is supposed to be a thriller / suspense type of movie, but it fails horribly at such.This movie failed to have me entertained, but still I managed to sit through the entire length. This is not the type of movie that I would recommend you watch, unless you have to kill time and have absolutely nothing else to watch or do.
