This is an interesting era in bondage videos. I'm a very busy person and in the past have been frustrated by the lack of offerings and the time consumed in finding what I would like to view. Some 25 years ago I was turned on to HOM where the loops and the videos were incredibly good and fulfilled my needs at the time. Then HOM faded and Cal Star faded, only mediocre quality remained with Cal Star. There was a very dry period before ZFX made the scene and set an incredible bar. Forbidden video as well as Dan Hawke have also made great contributions to fulfilling the needs on bondage aficionados.

But with ZFX and Forbidden in the dry as of late, the emergence of Powershotz is very important at this time in filling a badly needed niche. And from what I can see, Steve Power will be a very important producer of bondage DVDs to come.

School Girl Slave Girl starts out with an attractive Lizzie - strawberry blond and dressed in a white blouse and paid skirt. She is daydreaming in class and finds herself tied to the chair gagged and blindfolded. She struggles and makes noise nicely. She gets fondled and spanked extensively for a while by a hooded male. Her legs are felt up and her panties are removed. Next she is tied over a chair with her ass protruding for some butt slapping and fondling. She is hand gagged and intimidated and she protests in a very sensual manner that is enjoyable.

As this continues, it is apparent from this scene and from my viewing of previous Powershotz DVDs - that the viewer get a very close-up and intimate look at the tied victim. The viewer gets close-ups of every inch of the captive unlike any other series of DVDs. This is rare -- in some of the other DVDs the foot fetishist gets a real treat as close-ups are abundant. This DVD features a lot of pussy and ass close-ups.

Additionally, with Powershotz DVDs you find a wide array of different gals to choose from with varying ethnicities and temperaments which I will get into later. In essence, you really get to know the victim and Powershotz does a great job in setting the table for you. Lizzie then ends up crotch roped over a chair and struggles against it. This makes Lizzie hornier than hell and begs to suck cock and get fucked. She really moves well with her crotch ropes and her pleading with reaction appears genuine.

In the second and much lengthier part of the DVD, there is a blond gal Leah who walks into her apartment wearing a sweater skirt and tan nylons. She gets grabbed at the door and hand gagged and man handled into submission. Leah has one of the best bodies you will ever find on a woman with perfect boobs and the longest of legs. She appears to be a college gal and when threatened, smartly submits to avoid any harm. The hooded man has her wrists hand cuffed behind her and ball-gagged as he feels her up and spanks her. It is very enjoyable to see a young woman dressed nicely with a fresh appearance abducted in that manner. Although, she is very submissive, she moves and moans well.

It is a pleasure to see her helpless and left only to respond with no recourse. Leah is also displayed nicely for close-ups and intimate views. Another distinguishing characteristic of Powershotz DVDs is the exceptional technical quality and sharpness of the DVD. The bondage is well done with the immobilization done efficiently and effectively. Thus, a good lesson on how to do bondage quickly and properly. A big plus is the on screen tying.

Leah is next tied to a chair. She is neck roped very effectively and ankles and wrists tied nicely. I would have wished to have seen her wearing pantyhose instead of thigh highs, but that's my personal preference. She is gagged with a black harness gag.

Quickly, the scene moves to her tied with her breasts against the back of the chair and she is now stripped naked except of the thigh highs. She has great feet to view but close-ups were not the emphasis here rather her voluptuous ass. She has an O-ring gag on and is tormented with a riding crop and verbally humiliated. This goes on for a while. Next, one of my favorite parts is when she is forced to suck a vibrator and then has her pussy tormented with the same vibrator for quite some time.

In the next scene Leah is frog tied on the bed, ankles leather tied to wrists with her ass up and face into the bed. She is riding cropped extensively. Then her cunt is fingered deeply and the close-ups are so very awesome and there is a lot of facial close-up of her facial expressions as she is verbally humiliated and spanked and anally explored. She begs for it too which is great.

You can't tell at times whether she might be actually fucked or fingered from behind, but her expressions are a joy. Finally, Lizzie returns hogtied with handcuffs and ankle cuffs. She is nose-hooked and humiliated as the captor sticks his finger into her throat making her gag and suffer. Nice view of her bare feet as well. Her reactions are enjoyable.

In the end of the DVD are some great previews although a small sampling of Steve Power's works. The DVD was over 1 1/2 hours including previews which was a good length for me. All in all, I was pleasantly surprised by the DVD - it exceeded my expectations. As I mentioned earlier, there are so many excellent offerings, I would recommend one join Powershotz as the stills on the site are worth it alone -- and one has to truly immerse themselves to get to know the gals to decide what look and temperament suits them. Once, you decide, you will truly get to know them and Steve will set the table for your enjoyment.
