That's a great scene. Mostly remembered for the young Karen Allen, but Toni Kalem is just as hot. She also really owned her role. I believe the part where she starts rubbing the guy's crotch with her foot was a totally unexpected ad lib (you can see the mischevious look on her face in that first cap. She's trying to get a rise out of the other actor- pun intended). Here's a rare publicity still that's shot from an angle that's not in the film..

I wish wardrobe had chosen a different color for her bra and panties. Why does Hollywood insist on always dressing women in black underwear? When it comes to what men find sexy, every poll I've ever seen puts black underwear near the bottom of the list. It's mainly women that think black is sexy.

Hi, the order to strip is given, then nothing shown.

Well, that makes no sense at all. The only reason anyone remembers the first film is because of the strip scene.

don't know where these 2 pic sets are from

the first one is Teacher ft. Lauren Lapkus youtube.com/watch?v=v8NlbNcT6Qw

second one is natalie wood in Penelope ..............1966 not the one with christina ricci

Well these days you are lucky if you get anything at all along these lines-- everything is so politically correct and everyone bending over backwards to be "sensitive" and woke...

But anyway to your point:

It does seem that black is favored over white undies-- and most likely for the reason that it's considered more riske' and sexier.

Consider the old pantyhose vs. garter belt and stockings debate. How many times in stripping scenes/clothes loss scenes do you see the woman stripped down to pantyhose compared to garter belt and stockings? it almost always the latter. Why? I think because the garter belt and stockings are considered sexier where pantyhose is considered more utilitarian.

I'll give you a perfect example of this mindset-- "Elvira, Mistress of the Dark"-- Casandra Peterson plays the title character and has excellent legs. From the cut of iconic dress, she can only be wearing pantyhose. There is no question about it. Yet in one scene we have her undressing and being spied on by a boy looking through a window. As she takes off the dress, she's somehow magically in...you guessed it... a garter belt and stockings. Why? because pantyhose was not considered sexy enough.

I also think it mitigates embarrassment somewhat...I mean if you're in public in your underwear as a woman, if it's seen as being sexy, there's an added element there that takes a bit of the sting out of the ridicule.

One final point-- it seems as times progresses you get less and less cheesecake in films...and when you do, the girl seems to be in what I term "costume underwear"...a tank top and volleyball shorts or something. Not what you would consider "real" underwear.

Case in point: a few years ago the film "Gravity" came out starring Sandra Bullock. As part of what can only be termed planned and staged publicity for the film, there was a flap with Bullock complaining of having to do scenes in her underwear...she stopped short of saying "exploitive" but made it seem like that was a big point of contention with the director. Now Sandra Bullock doesn't wear anything she doesn't want in films at this point so you know immediately that this is all B.S.

And the "underwear" that Bullock wore? a tank top and bicycle shorts. "Costume" underwear.

Or a...ugg...sports bra, which is a huge "BOOO!" from me.

But on the topic of black lingerie, for the most part I totally agree with it usually being disappointing, especially if it goes against the character the woman is playing. For example, a super churchy woman getting stripped down to her "sexy black bra and panties" is not all that hot, especially since the appeal of her getting stripped is to see her in the sensible underwear that she didn't want anyone to see. As I've said many times, it's why Janet's stripping from Rock Horror remains a classic. By the same token, while I'm a huge fan of subtle bra lines, I'm not a fan of the black bra under light colored top look. I say that largely for two reasons. First, part of the appeal of EUF is the woman doesn't want you to see her underwear, and second, I view the stripping very much like a present being unwrapped. That is, I don't want the surprise to be spoiled. ;)

With all that said, there are some nice black lingerie scenes that are on topic to this thread. I think one of my favorites is Robot Ninja. The movie itself is in the same so good it's bad category as Troll 2 and The Room. A random 80s babe is grabbed in a store parking lot and her shirt is ripped off (she's saved before anything bad happens). I think it works for a few reasons. First, the actual stripping is pretty hot. Her shirt is ripped and then literally peeled down off, after which she's put on her back to show off her bra-covered tits in all their glory. Second, while she's wearing a black bra, even with some satin and lace cups, it's fairly understated and not meant to look sl*tty. Third, she's legit humiliated to have been stripped down to it.

She's also wearing some sexy mom jeans. Sadly those don't come off to reveal if the panties match or not. :rolleyes:

(I'd love to find a high res version of this)

I think the black underwear thing is a holdover from an earlier generation. In the 40's and 50's men found it ultra sexy because most women wore plain white (or pink) underwear. Black was only worn by "bad girls". Mid 20th century pop culture branded them the height of sexiness, and now it's a well established "fact" that black bras and panties are the sexiest thing a woman can wear.
