Ralphus ZFX Review


Underland

Reviewed by Ralphus


ZFX's Underland is a bit of a departure from the usual ZFX fare. For one thing, the settings and locale are different. Rick Masters usually films his videos in Florida, but made a trip out to Minnesota to shoot at an adult bookstore, where he shot some of the Night Prowler and Video Pirates series. Here, by editing in footage of ZFX regular Lisa Kinkaid, Rick takes advantage of the new locale to showcase a new story with newcomer Kimberly Noble, and an old favorite of mine, Kelly McKay.

The story begins with Lisa and her male friend searching for her sister, Kelly. They meet with a psychic who gazes into his crystal ball and traces her to working at the adult bookstore. The three watch footage of another girl, Kimberly, who is sent downstairs at the store to get some racks. Kimberly, an attractive brunette, is walking through the dark, cavernous corridors when she is attacked by two masked men, who quickly ballgag her and roughly strip off her clothes, as she screams for help though her gag. Her hands are cuffed behind her and she is raped on the floor by one man while the other holds her down and molests her body. Then they carry her off to the corner of the room and slap her pussy a bit. Throughout the entire tape, none of the masked men say a single word, so it is really up to the victims to supply the dramatic impact of each scene. Some nasty wordplay would have helped a great deal, but I suppose Masters keeps the men silent to enhance the dreamlike, ghostly aura of the setting, a sort of hell-like dimension.

Next, Kimberly is strapped spreadeagled to a metal table, with vises on her nipples. The men work her over by first removing her ball gag and forcing her to suck a large black dildo, then re-gagging her and stuffing the dildo up her pussy, working it in and around. Besides being very pretty, Kimberly is also a very good actress, and her performance is realistic and exciting. It's also a very-well filmed scene.

The scene continues as she is now gagged with a black trainer, flipped on her stomach and again spreadeagled, as the men repeatedly thrash at her back and ass with whips. Kimberly cries and moans like it really hurts. The scene continues until she passes out from the pain. This was a nice touch, torturing someone to the point of unconsciousness!

Next up, we see the return to the screen of Kelly McKay, one of the most beautiful performers ZFX has ever employed. It's been a few years since Rick has used her, and she looks a little different. The hair is a bit shorter, but she's still got those big brown eyes and and that killer body. Sent by the owner down to the basement to look for Kimberly, Kelly meets a similar fate, this time by four masked men. She is attacked and nicely hand-gagged as the men pull off her clothing, then she is ballgagged and carried over to where she can be handcuffed with her arms above her, attached to an overhead beam. After fingering her pussy, the men carry Kelly over to another beam, where she is then hung upside down and whipped. Halfway through the whipping, clothespins are added to each of her nipples.

This scene is followed up by another unique bondage position, as Kelly is tied standing with her hands tied to a beam up above, but her head is forced down so that she is bent over, with ropes connecting from her neck to her bound ankles. Her mouth securely sealed with red tape, and bound in a vulnerable position, the men go at it with the whips once again, leaving some impressive red slash marks on her skin. Kelly doesn't emote nearly as loudly as Kimberly, but it's still a good, if a bit padded, scene.

Meanwhile, Lisa, who has been watching the procedings in the crystal ball, asks what she can do to help. The psychic replies with some sort of magic mumbo-jumbo, which translates to Lisa volunteering to take off her own clothes and allow herself to be ballgagged and tied to a wicker chair. It doesn't make a lot of sense, but any reason to have Lisa tied up is good enough for me!

The tape then abruptly stops, allowing only the words, "to be continued", to finish it. Most ZFX tapes run around 70-80 minutes, so this one cutting off before the one-hour mark was a bit of a letdown. Presumably, the sequel will continue the story, but there were no previews afterward for what is to come next.

There was enough in this tape to merit a recommendation, especially if you like to see two very attractive young brunettes get bound and whipped. I like this Kimberly Noble girl, but I suspect she is from Minnesota and thus will be unavailable for most of Masters' future tapes. It was also good to see Kelly McKay come back; I had wondered why he never seemed to use her, except in this location. It makes sense that she is also not a Florida girl, either. Lisa Kinkaid's best work is still to come in the sequel, since she is barely seen tied up in this edition. This was a promising, albeit too short, start to what might turn out to be a good series.
