On completely unrelated subjects, I want to remind you all that a hardcore sex and violence film about two women out on a killing and fucking spree, called Baise Moi, is playing at Cinema 21, one week only, July 6th through the 12th. Described as a "nihilistic storm of graphic sex, rage and murder," this French feature was co-directed by a novelist and a porn star. Great combination. Baise Moi follows the anti-social exploits of a hooker and a porn actress with unflinching scrutiny. Banned in France. Portland premiere. Sex and death.

And, speaking of sexy violence, be sure to check out the Kentojuku Challenge this month at the Roseland on Thursday, July 26 (sponsored by Exotic Magazine.) With go-go dancers, g-string boxing, the girls of portlandexoticdancers.com and live music, this will be a knock-down drag-out evening of bare-knuckle, kick-ass brawling, also featuring some of PDX's baddest bouncers and toughguys. Get your tickets today.

The gang at Stars Cabaret in Beaverton takes the lead with a party so huge, it's gonna last all month. That's right boys and girls, it's their Spectacular 5th Anniversary Party. Hard to believe it's already been 5 years since the stars came out in Beaverton, but here we are. Listing all of the events taking place this month would probably take up this whole column. So, Stars has taken over our pinup calendar this month where you can all keep track of the 31 days of sinful celebration in July. Top three highlights include: mega-adult-superstar Janine appearing with three shows nightly on July 18-21; Gallery Magazine's Girl Next Door, Holly Fox, appearing every Monday at 10pm; and last (and certainly least in the looks department) is The Ron Jeremy Look-Alike Contest on July 27-28, hosted and judged by the hairy old hedgehog himself. Happy anniversary, Stars; we'll see you there.

Club 205, the Home of the Covergirls, is setting off some sexy fireworks this month with their Two-Fer-Tuesdays on July 3rd, 17th and 31st--two girls on each stage all day and night. They'll also host their monthly Covergirl Dance Contest on July 18. Don't forget, you can catch their grand finale every night at closing when they turn the whole crew of dancers loose on their stages. I've seen this action, and it can get pretty hot and crazy when you cram that many bad beauties on stage at one time. And, be sure to stop by and say hello to this month's covergirl, Isis, all month long.

portlandexoticdancers.com is all the buzz this month. Log on to view 15 new girls, added to their pages this month. Aside from viewing their hot photo galleries, you'll be able to send them e-mails and shop their online stores where you can purchase panties, posters, and more. Coming attractions this month from P.E.D. include the Boobs & Booze Cruise 2. Last month's voyage was a wet and wild blast with a cabin cruiser full of liquored-up dancers flashing the sailors of the Rose Festival fleet,
and a bunch of lucky schmucks
that signed up for this event at
www.portlandexoticdancers.com.

P.E.D. will also be hosting Sunday night Dancer Decadence at Runner's Lounge on McLoughlin Blvd., offering $1.00 specials (we can't mention) to all P.E.D. members. Plus, get this, all the P.E.D. dancers that stop by Runners will receive one penny specials all night long. With one cent specials for dancers, trust us, things could get pretty wild. Log on for
more details.
