Explicit! Provocative! Bold XXX Entertainment!

Make Your Date at the Nighttime Sex Show

Dildo
Ruben Stiller plays Ivan who goes
grazy for pneumatic films on
Kari Paljakka's short film Dildo (1989).

In the Scorsese film Taxi Driver Robert de Niro takes Cybill Shepherd to a pornfilm show at their first date. Swedish Marriage Manual doesn't get Shepherd too hot, and the night becomes aterrible failure. At the Nighttime Sex show in Pakkahuone, the night goes on a spree much more nicely. You won't catch any hard core or bondage, though. "The show is built with a light and free touch, and it has humour for many tastes", explain the two "directors" of the show, Kirsi Kinnunen and Raimo Silius.

Ooh! Zwisch! Ein Schöner Abend!

Nighttime Sex offers 14 films, 4 of which are Finnish. For example Jaakko Talaskivi's A Kiss One (1969) was prohibited by the state film censors at the time of it's release. Bob Godfrey's Kama Sutra Rides Again (1971) was even an Oscar-nominee. Director John Matthews pays tribute to Kenneth Anger, the pioneer of avantgarde film, in his gay musical Boot Camp (1996).

Hold on, I'm coming!

"The ones who come for porn may be disappointed. But this doesn't mean that the show wouldn't set their hormones running", Raimo Silius remarks. Humour is often the best way to kindle romance and erotic touch. Tulliklubi staff has promised to provide some candels to the corner tables, if requested...

Nighttime Sex at Pakkahuone in Tullikamari on Friday, from midnight to 3 am. Duration 140 minutes with an interval, tickets 50 FIM.
