Maria Ford (MIND GAMES) returns to The Blind Rage Podcast in Dan Golden’s 1995 erotic thriller STRIPTEASER.
It’s closing time at Zipper’s Clown Palace, a seedy Hollywood strip joint, when a blind man enters. In minutes, he drops the cane, sunglasses, and charade, now brandishing a shotgun, which he uses to hold the remaining employees, as well as its last patrons, hostage. What appears to be a random act of violence slowly becomes more sinister as we discover our gunman has something of an infatuation with Christina (Ford), one of Zipper’s most popular performers.
Chock full of violence, nudity, lap dances, and sleaze, STRIPTEASER remains one of my favorite Roger Corman straight-to-video quickies. Pull up a chair (not that one; there appears to be a sticky residue along the seat) and join Tony and I for this lost gem.
