I'm trying to remember what movie this was from.

Some guy is granted several wishes and one of his wishes was for X-ray vision.
He tries it on a woman and instead of seeing her ta-ta's through her shirt...he looks right through her chest and can see her internal organs.
It grosses him out and he gets angry.

That's all I can remember.

This was either from a movie or a TV show.

Anyone?   Question

It kinda sounds like an episode of the '80s Twilight Zone.
From what I recall, three teenage boys capture a leprechaun in a Hawiian shirt, who grants them each one wish. The first one wishes for X-ray vision, which results in the scene you described. The second one wishes for total control over his parents, which results in them turning into mindless drones who need specific step-by[step instructions. The third one wishes for a car, which turns out to be stolen.

I believe the second part of the episode is about a suicidal dentist who gets a visit from a man claiming to be the ToothFairy. The dentist wishes for some respect, which eventually leads to his being overworked.

Yeah there was a Twilight Zone episode where people get wishes. And this is where Wishmaster got its idea. Every wish is either taken too literally or twisted in a way that the wish is a horrible punishment rather than achieving for the wisher what they truly desire.

The episode from the 1985-1989 run of "The Twilight Zone" was called "The Leprechaun Artist."
