A Bring Out the GIMP (Girls in Merciless Peril) Movie Review

Ralphus ZFX Review


War Pigs 4

Reviewed by Ralphus


War Pigs 4 continues what has been a fairly successful series from ZFX. While Parts 1 and 2 were clearly better tapes, Part 4 is at least a notch ahead of the so-so Part 3. To review the story, Lisa Kinkaid is a journalist who was taken hostage in a foreign country, and must now prove to the boss (Rick Masters) that she is loyal to the terrorists, by administering the same punishment to them that was done to her earlier. Bridgette Bayonne is an American student whose plane goes down, and now she is the helpless captive being interrogated by Lisa.

The first half of the tape is a series of scenes of Lisa trying to abstract information from the bound and gagged Bridgette. Bridgette is blindfolded, cleave-gagged and tied standing with her arms tied above her, later she choked with the blindfold after she refuses to talk, and passes out. Scene two has her nude, hanging suspended by her wrists and ankles, while Lisa applies clothespins to her tits and pussy, and leaves her alone to hang. Not a real strong scene, but Bridgette looks very nice hanging up there from the ceiling.

Later, Lisa has Bridgette sit on a wooden chair that is specially formatted with a dildo sticking up through the seat. She is clearly impaled by the dildo, as director Masters shows us in a too-long segment, and Lisa makes her literally fuck the chair, going up and down over it. It would have worked better had Bridgette actually been tied to the chair, but that is remedied in the next segment, one of the best scenes in the tape. With Bridgette still gagged, and now adorned with clothespins on her nipples, Lisa removes the clips from Bridgette's long red hair and arranges it over her shoulders. This is how Bridgette looks best, and she proves to be a sexy victim as Lisa administers electric shocks from a cattle prod. In the past, I felt Bridgette was somewhat lackluster in her performances while being tortured, but she emotes well this time, and even shows some fear in her eyes as Lisa approaches. A well-directed, convincing scene.

The following two segments show Lisa first beating Bridgette, then giving her lesbian head while she's tape-gagged, while on her back with hands and feet tied together. When Lisa goes away, Bridgette escapes from her bonds and runs off, thereby ending her scenes in this tape, and turning the attention over to Cindy Macreedy, who was Lisa's victim in Part 3.

Cindy is tied standing to a post, her wrists behind her, ankles together, tits tied up, rope around her neck, and well-gagged with blue duct tape. She looks absolutely fantastic. Lisa goes after her with a stun gun, later adds clothespins to Cindy's pussy and tits, completing a lovely picture. Unfortunately, Cindy Macreedy has never been one of ZFX's most expressive actresses, and the entire scene's impact is muted by her near-silent performance. I really wanted to like this scene, and with some audio-dubbed screams, it might have worked.

The next segment works better, as Lisa dons a large black strap-on, and realistically fucks a bound Cindy up the ass. It was simulated, but looked real. And Cindy makes some noise, finally, after Lisa's every thrust. Masters finally makes a brief cameo, interrupting Lisa's session by roughly pulling them apart. "What kind of torture is this? She enjoys it, can't you see that?", he tells Lisa. He takes Lisa aside and threatens her, leaving Cindy alone to break free of her ropes, and finally turn the tables on Lisa when she returns.

At last, we get to see Lisa Kinkaid tied up and tortured, and she shows up both other girls with an excellent performance, as Cindy first whips her, then ties her down to a chair for more electrical shock with the stun gun (Three electric shock scenes in one tape? All right!!). Lisa acts being shocked extremely well, the bondage is tight and thorough, and shot selection is perfect. Masters gets everything right in this outstanding segment.

For what was basically an all-girl bondage tape, which ZFX usually doesn't make very well, this was a pleasant surprise. There are lots of scenes, and a majority of them work. The tape runs an hour and a half, so we get our money's worth out of this one. The tape's weak points are the lack of a convincing villain, as Lisa Kinkaid, try as she might, just can't muster up enough meanness to be really believable. If Masters had recast a man as the aggressor, it probably would have been more effective. The tape needed to be a little more nasty, a little more harsh, to work as well as the first two. As it is, though, it's worth checking out.
