SHOWGIRLS 2: PENNY’S FROM HEAVEN (THE CUT)
Dir. Rena Riffel. 2011.
United States. 100 min.
In English.
WEDNESDAY, JULY 3 – 7:30 PM
SATURDAY, JULY 13 – MIDNIGHT
TUESDAY, JULY 16 – 7:30 PM
SUNDAY, JULY 21 – 7:30 PM with filmmaker Q&A (This event is $10.)
Reprising her role from the Paul Verhoeven 1995 trashsterpiece, Rena Riffel stars as Penny in a “satirical parody project” intent on both pleasing and confusing fans of Rena’s work. A wholly unholy fusion of SHOWGIRLS’ high camp and MULHOLLAND DRIVE’S nightmarish heartache.
After originally debuting at Spectacle in 2013, we are happy to reintroduce SHOWGIRLS 2 to a completely new generation of filmgoers in a completely new way in a completely new cut, with completely new footage never seen before! For all Rena Riffel completionists!
