One of the roughest things I've seen in a long while is ADV-R151, also known as Slave Press #29. Man, this movie is rough. It stars Randa Mai (aka Mr. Cool Shades) as the whipmaster so you know the action is gonna be brutal. And it was. He puts this woman through some nasty tortures, including a variation on the classic Edo torture where the victim is forced to kneel over a jagged surface and has heavy weights piled on top of her legs. In this case, he stacks about 20 or so bricks on her and lets her suffer, then enhances things with several nasty cracks from his whip. When he finally takes the bricks away and has her stand up, there are trenches in her legs from where the jagged surface has cut into her.
In the next scene, she is forced to stand with her feet tied together and her arms tied apart to opposite sides of the room. Randa covers her upper body with clothespins and brutally whips them off. But then he switches to a bullwhip and really cuts into her, leaving her body with several nasty red slashes. No fakery here. That bitch truly gets sliced up. For those who can stomach genuine whippings, it doesn't get much better than this. Then he suspends her upside-down and whips her even more.
When it comes to tying up women, Randa Mai is an especially cruel master. For his next abuse, he hangs her up in the air so that she's suspended horizontally like a porch swing. Then he piles even more bricks on her, this time on her back, and violently works over her pussy until she's screaming. Then he lowers her onto the dreaded horse (see the box cover). Like I said, he knows exactly what he's doing. He ties several of the heavy bricks to her ankles, really forcing her down hard onto the pointed surface of the horse, with all the weight being centered directly onto her tortured pussy. She grits her teeth and grimaces in pain as she endures this most uncomfortable position, and you can tell she's really suffering badly.
But it gets even worse, or better, depending on your point of view (Me, I was smiling). Randa Mai is a mean son of a bitch. He gets out his bullwhip again and proceeds to whip the shit out of her while she's in this precarious position, and boy, if she was screaming before, she really cuts loose this time. It was an incredible scene, worth the price of the DVD.
My only real complaints are that the woman in the movie is not exactly the most beautiful Japanese woman I've ever seen, although I think she's marginally attractive, especially when she's suffering, which is pretty much the case through the whole movie. Also, the action here is consensual, in that there's no damsel in distress plot like in the Attackers movies. She's simply a slave who willingly allows herself to be put through the ringer by a talented master, which takes away a bit of the fantasy (even a gag would have helped tremendously). But the action is superb, and this woman totally suffers for her art, as evidenced by the markings all over her body by the end. Definitely worth checking out, especially if you're a fan of whipping.
