Editorial Reviews

Review

“I no longer have to waste valuable time with ‘plot.’ More than just a time saver, Mr. Skin may have saved my life.” – Jimmy Kimmel

“Mr. Skin is a genius!” – Howard Stern

“Mr. Skin knows more about nudity in movies that any person who ever lived has known about any subject. Ever.” – Richard Roeper

--This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

Product Description

After turning his lifelong obsession with famous girls on film into the Internet phenomenon known as MrSkin.com, the Skinmeister General has now compiled his expert knowledge and skinsationally witty way with a phrase into an authoritative, uproarious book that you'll never tire of flipping through---single-handedly, of course!

Mr. Skin's Skincyclopedia compiles exhaustive information on more than two-thousand starlets and the films in which you can witness them free of clothing. Every actress bio contains a complete list of movies in which she's appeared naked, as well as the specific body parts that are exposed. In addition, Mr. Skin picks each star's Skinfining Moment--- the single skinematic high point that defines her carnal career.

The Skincyclopedia also comes packed with top-ten lists, revealing quotes from the bare beauties themselves, and a host of rare, eye-popping photos---all delivered in Mr. Skin's signature puntastic style.

Spanning nearly a century of cinematic history, the Skincyclopedia unveils the silver screen's naked truth from the silent era to the blockbuster to the straight-to-DVD age of today, along the way revealing the answers to questions such as:

- Did Marcia from The Brady Bunch ever bust out her Brady bumps?

- Can you name the 1990 flick that features Jennifer Connelly sunbathing nude?

- Is it Farrah's right or left Fawcett that takes flight in Saturn 3?

- What are the Top Ten Most Leztastic Girl-Girl Scenes of all time?

- Which twentysomething Hollywood honey once declared, "My boobs are fine---they go with my body"?

- How many Academy Award--winning actresses have displayed their Golden Globes on film?

- Got "furburgerage"?

These and countless other fleshly film facts get laid bare in Mr. Skin's Skincyclopedia0, the definitive guidebook for the "movie buff" in all of us!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not the Encyclopedia He Claims , April 30, 2005

By	CD Chamberlin "CD Chamberlin" (Parsonsfield, Maine USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I waited for this book to be released with anticipation of greatness; how wrong I was. He has descriptions of all the actresses, but offers very little information where to locate the
nudity. He ONLY offers one scene per actress, even if the actress is nude more than once, in a movie; sometimes what is given is not, in my opinion, the best scene in the movie. He only offers a brief description of the nudity in all the other movies he covers (breasts, full frontal, etc.), not the location. You have to fast forward the movie to find that nudity. I believe a better book on the market is Craig Hosoda's 'The Bare Facts Video Guide' that will be updated sometime this year. You can purchase it from his web site, barefacts.com. He offers ALL locations of nudity of the actresses in all the movies he covers, even if she appears nude more than once. Craig Hosoda's book has been available since the 90's and updated regularly. To me, he is the KING. I was very disappointed with 'Mr. Skin's Skincyclopedia'. I found it wanting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Skintillating! Skincandescent! Skinformative! Skin-sational!, January 12, 2005

By	Nicky Dickles (New Jersey) - See all my reviews

I've long enjoyed Mr. Skin's witty appearances on the radio with Howard Stern, but I never joined his web site. When I came across this book in the store, I couldn't believe what I had been missing!

Everything -- and I do mean EVERYTHING -- you ever wanted to know about movie nude scenes is contained in this amazing volume. And the writing is not only packed with information, it's hilarious!

My only regret is that I didn't order this book before the holidays to give out to every guy on my list. But you can guess what they'll all be getting for their birthdays throughout the year.

I can not recommend this skintastic master-PIECE highly enough!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Brittanica, January 7, 2005

By	John J. Oleary (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Everything you ever wanted to know about female celebrity nudity. As Howard Stern once said, "Mr. Skin, you're a genius, I know it and you know it". The book is very thorough with lots of humorous lists and witty reviews.
