In some ways I'm not surprised, a story all about women in a world built entirely around male desire and expectation is, in a lot of ways, a film without an audience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCritics at the time panned Elizabeth Berkley's performance in the lead, and controversy followed the film's development over its carrying an NC-17 rating into the box office. However, while initially a disappointment, the film was a smash hit on the rental market and has gained a serious cult following over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMostly it feels like, without the remove of robotic cops, dream worlds, or interplanetary war, Verhoeven's skewering of a shallow, materialistic, and sensation-driven American society hit a little too close to home. Showgirls undresses Las Vegas as the capital of an American dream built on vanity and self interest. At times an intensely difficult film to watch, but a core piece of the director's oeuvre.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpecial Features (via vinegarsyndrome.com)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4K UHD presented in High-Dynamic-Range Newly restored by Vinegar Syndrome from an existing director approved 4K studio master\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes original 5.1 surround and 2.0 stereo soundtrack options\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"The Greatest Movie Ever Made\" - commentary track with writer David Schmader\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"More Vegas Than Vegas\" - an interview with director Paul Verhoeven\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"You Gotta Gamble if You’re Gonna Win\" - interview with screenwriter Joe Eszterhas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"All that Glitters: Filming Showgirls\" - interview with cinematographer Jost Vacano \u0026amp; Performance Lighting Designer Peter Morse\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"The Rhythm of Chaos\" - interview with co-editors Mark Helfrich \u0026amp; Mark Goldblatt\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"Born to Dance\" - interview with actress Rena Riffel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\"Free Lap Dance with Every Large Popcorn: The Cult of Showgirls\" - interview with Midnight Mass Podcast hosts Peaches Christ \u0026amp; Michael Varrati\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpecial ‘Behind-the-scenes’ Featurette\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Showgirls Diary Lap Dance Tutorial Featuring the World-Famous Girls of Scores\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOriginal trailer\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReversible sleeve artwork\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnglish SDH subtitles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zane's Video","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48192368705726,"sku":"814456027654","price":44.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0761\/1436\/2558\/files\/Showgirls_01_Front.png?v=1786691888","url":"https:\/\/zanesvideostore.com\/products\/showgirls-4k","provider":"Zane's Video","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
