South of the Border 3: Mexican Jailhouse Torture is set
in Mexico City, Mexico, as attractive blonde newcomer
Christina Anderson is set up while buying drugs and is led
away in handcuffs. The story then cuts back two days to
show what happened to her friend. Kimberly Noble, who we
first saw in Underland, is arrested and handcuffed by two
Mexican officers, "Mad Dog" and veteran ZFX villain Travis
Lee, who interrogate her for information.
Kimberly is feisty and not talking, so the men strip her, ballgag her
and rape her on the floor of the dirty jail cell. It's
unfortunate that the rape is clearly a "let's pretend" kind
of thing, as the officer doesn't even bother to pull down
his pants and just makes thrusts through his jeans, while
Kimberly moans and acts as though he's really doing
something. Kimberly is given a body cavity search and
chained to the floor, and left alone in the cell.
Now Christina is given her chance to perform. As her
friend Kimberly watches helplessly while hanging from a bar
on the ceiling, Christina is brought into the same cell as
before and given a similar treatment. She's indignant and
denies that she knows anything, so she gets stripped,
gagged, a body cavity search, and then chained spreadeagled
while standing as the men let her have it with whips. They
whip her until she loses consciousness, even though she's
still standing up under her own power, a nice trick.
Next, another guard gives the still hanging Kimberly a
vicious whipping all over her body, while she screams in
pain and eventually passes out, hanging limply in her
bonds. A bit of an improvement over the previous scene.
When we see Christina next, she is tied on the floor of the
cell, still ballgagged, her wrists chained over her head.
She has wires taped to her nipples on her big boobs, so we
can guess what's coming next! The men return and try to
extract more information from her, but she's still mouthy
and abusive toward her captors (an odd reaction; acting
scared seems like a more realistic approach). "You had
your chance, Bitch", she is told, and a large electrical
phallus is inserted in her pussy and taped inside. Then
she is repeatedly shocked by the men, and her lithe body
shakes as the current rushes through her.
The beautiful Kelly McKay is the next girl to be
interrogated. She is only given one scene, but it's a nice
one as she is cleave-gagged and whipped, and has a
nightstick forced up her pussy. Her vocal reactions are
quite good, and she acts like it really hurts. Like the
other girls, she is beaten into near submission.
To the rescue comes Lisa Kinkaid, playing an attorney from
the U.S. Embassy, here to get the three girls out of jail.
They won't let her come in to state her case without being
strip-searched against a wall first (Hey, you can't be too
careful!).
In the best scene of the tape, Lisa meets with
a CIA consulate, played in an excellent performance by
Joseph Marx. He shows her a video of her clients being
tortured in prison. "Has anyone else from the U.S. Embassy
seen this?" Lisa inquires.
"I think a couple of people at the Embassy have copies," he
answers. When Lisa asks if they're okay with this, Marx
replies, "Actually, they wanted to know if they could get
more copies!" :o)
When Lisa threatens to expose the videotape's contents to
the United States, she is then herself arrested on drug
charges, as Marx slips a bag of cocaine into her
briefcase. Lisa protests, but she is handcuffed and given
another thorough cavity search (Like I said, you just can't
be too careful!) and strangled with her own scarf, lifted
off the ground by it.
She collapses and awakens tied tightly to a chair, a sponge tied in her mouth with her
scarf and rope, with clothespins adorning her tits and
pussy. Her neck is even tied to the top of the chair. She
looks very hot. The videotape of her friends being
tortured plays in front of her for her entertainment.
Marx enters the room. "Enjoying Mexican hospitality?", he
taunts her. He lights a cigarette and approaches her with
it, and her wide-eyed look is great. He brings it down to
her nipple and burns it. In close-up, it's obvious that
the cig isn't lit as it presses her skin, and it also
doesn't leave a burn mark, but it's still an exciting
illusion.
He leaves her alone to watch the video, reminding her that
she could get the same treatment. After he leaves, Lisa
manages to free herself from her bonds, take his gun and
escape. This sets up the story for another installment
next time.
I had a mixed reaction to this tape. All four of the girls
are very attractive, there are lots of scenes, but the tape
really only comes alive in the final segment with Lisa.
Director Rick Masters shoots the hell out of her scenes,
with lots of close ups and handheld camerawork, something
he was unable to do given the limitations of the jailhouse
set he had to work with earlier in the tape. The rest of
the tape ranges from okay to quite good, but it improves as
it goes along. I'm looking forward to part 4.
