The basis of this article -- and those that follow -- is to illustrate, parody and make fun of a scene, scenes or an entire movie. Most likely, the parodies will be about nudity or sex because -- quite frankly -- those are often times the funniest scenes in film.
So... Here's how "Basic Instinct" works.
Basically, Sharon Stone is brought in for interrogation because her character is suspected of murder. So she puts on a slinky dress and the rest is cinematic history as she uncrosses her legs baring it for all to see and the guy who played Newman gets so hot and bothered he decides to go get a Diet Coke. But instead he shuts down all the electricity at a theme park on a remote South American island, thus letting loose thousands of dinosaurs who attack and kill the humans on said island. All because Sharon Stone spread her legs in an interrogation...
OK, not really. But Wayne Knight gets about as sweaty as the time Wilfred Brimley turned the heat up on him in "Seinfeld" for refusing to deliver mail. Instead, the guy who really needed to watch out was Michael Douglas in this film as he was busy fucking Sharon Stone AND Jeanne Tripplehorn -- and the latter was trying to kill him, while disguised as Sharon Stone.
"OMG! What an amazing movie!?" you say? Yeah. No.
The problem is Paul Verhoeven makes shitty movies. The plots typically suck. And the only reason anyone really watches his films is A.) nudity, B.) simulated sex scenes, C.) hot actresses showing their breasts and D.) hot actresses showing their breasts while having simulated sex. Aside from the novelty of seeing Sharon Stone spread her legs when you're a horny teenager, who gives a fuck? The overall film is terrible.
But then again, what do you expect from the director who brought you shit sandwiches like "Robocop," "Showgirls," and "Basic Instinct 2"?
