WITCHUNT
This film was made in the 1990s, and it seems Rick at that time may have been a soothsayer of sorts. It's set in the future when religious fanatics and the government have serious hang-ups about sex and unjustly punish those with loose "morals" while proving hypocrites at the same time. Sound like the last 7+ years?
Fortunately for the viewer, the punishments in Witchunt have nothing to do with credit cards and unfair age-verification requirements. It's just one gorgeous and sexual blonde getting tormented with sex toys and a lot of fondling.
The fun begins with the lovely blonde Candi Licks in skin-tight athletic training shorts and matching top sitting on a park bench at night. Now, some people in her position might pull out a magazine to read or feed the pigeons. But Candi decides to masturbate. It's hard to blame her. Her hot body deserves to be touched at all times. But her pleasure is interrupted by a shadowy figure in the background, so she decides it would be a good idea to take her self-love indoors on her bed.
Travis Lee lurks around outside her apartment and watches as Candi's fingers with sexy long pink fingernails rub away. He breaks in and shoves a tube gag in her mouth. She is taken away handcuffed behind her back to a white van and transported to Federal Detention Camp 666. This is the lair of the dreaded Witch Hunters, whose task is to rid the world of women corrupted by the devil. In other words, women who like to have fun.
Candi's bent over a table and thoroughly frisked. Travis also frisks Candi's bare ass and tits because you never know if a witch is hiding a Luger under a layer of skin.
Her interrogation starts in a garage-like dungeon filled with dildos and instruments of torture. Travis's mission is to make her confess she's a witch. Candi remains gagged with the black tube but with a stick through it and more string securing it in place. Her elbows are strapped behind her, and she's wearing the same athletic gear and high heels. Travis, wearing a black mask and robe, fondles her some more and then ties her leather wrist cuffs to an overhead rope attached to a pulley and winch. She puts up a weak fight.
Travis asks her repeatedly to confess to being a witch. Since she cannot answer verbally through the gag, she shakes her head "no." He plays with her tits some more and cranks her arms higher. When she still refuses to confess, he pulls down her shorts to reveal a skimpy pair of pink panties. He fondles her pussy, removes the panties, spanks her ass and rubs her snatch. Travis remarks that she looks like she's been violated by demons, so he starts whipping her front and back. Candi's reactions to the whip are OK, and her luscious body glistens and we get some good shots of her gagged face.
Candi still won't confess. To increase the pain, Travis puts clothespins on each nipple and 4 on her pussy lips. He lashes her some more (gotta love those sound effects) and leaves her there struggling.
What's next for Candi? Travis shoves a red ball gag in her mouth and forces her on her knees in front of a chair with two plugs sticking up from the seat. He shows her the inflatability of the plugs before forcing her to sit down. We again get some good close-ups of Candi's gagged anguished face as the plugs are inflated. Suddenly, she is strapped down (offscreen). She is also sporting head gear, wired clothespins on her nipples, and electrodes attached to her pussy lips. Travis, wearing rubber dishwashing gloves, points a TV remote at her that turns on the juice and supposedly electrifies her.
The next few minutes consist mainly of Travis asking her if she'll confess, Candi shaking her head, and then "zapp." Unfortunately, Candi wasn't too convincing in her reactions. Her timing was off when she's supposed to be in pain, and she even looked a bit bored at times. She eventually passes out, or falls asleep.
Candi is still strapped to the chair, but this time with strings connecting her fingers to clothespins on her pussy lips. Travis inserts a white knotted cleave gag and blindfolds her with a white cloth. To complete the sensory deprivation, he puts headphones on her ears.
Travis then applies a clear suction tube alternately on Candi's tits. It was nice seeing her nipples get sucked up into the tube. It is also used above her clitty. But the scene dragged on a bit. Also irritating was the music. Instead of hearing Candi mmmphing, we get the old mechanical "wwhaAAAAAAaannng" followed by "wriiiIIIIIIiiiiing."
The cleave gag is removed and replaced by a dildo attached to a hanging enema bag. Travis opens up the tube, and water spurts out of her mouth and down her body. It's a pretty good scene, as Travis opens up the tube more and Candi gags, coughs and struggles. Travis finally breaks his silence by asking her if she's ready to confess. Still doesn't answer. Maybe it's because she can't hear him with the headphones or cannot speak with the water being forced down her throat.
We next have Candi with her arms tied over her head with a rainbow-colored ball gag, white neck brace, and nipple clamps attached to hanging chain. She is standing over a wooden contraption, with chain crotchrope, and two silver minivibrators taped strategically in place.
Travis chains her ankles far apart, but she still won't confess. As the vibrators cackle, he whips her front and ass. Candi doesn't provide much of a reaction at first, but she gets better, especially when the nipple clamps are whipped off. A rubber dildo sticking up from the board between her legs gets inserted up her ass. The dildo is also hooked up to an enema bag, and the water flows in to cleanse her.
Next, Candi's on her back on a wood table, arms stretched above her head and legs spread wide. She's got a blue tape gag.
Travis grabs some tongs and goes to work mainly on her nipples and pussy. He stretches her some more so she can barely move and puts clothespins to her sensitive areas. Then he tasers her but she still won't confess.
Travis removes the tape and shoves a huge black dildo in her mouth, but abruptly we switch to Candi standing with her hands tied behind her back, a crotchrope, tits tied in rope, and a different tape gag. Travis pushes her on her stomach on the table and slaps her ass. She's hogtied offscreen. As he hoists her up, she shows that she's finally ready to confess, probably because she's sick of Travis repeating the same old question.
SPOILER ALERT (as if you cared)
Travis removes the tape and she confesses, which means she will be put to death. Candi then shrieks and Travis gets knocked back by an invisible force. His body shakes and he is killed by some cheesy special effects. Candi gets up and walks away laughing maniacally, just as an immoral witch would do.
SPOILER ALERT ENDS
While not one of Rick's masterpieces, Witchunt is enjoyable, mainly because of Candi's looks and body. The tortures are standard ZFX fare.
Despite being gagged throughout the movie, Candi's acting was a bit inconsistent. She has lovely pleading eyes, but her body reactions to the whips and shocks were unconvincing at times.
But the biggest problem I had was Travis's dialogue, which consisted almost entirely of "Are you ready to confess?" If Witchunt was indeed Rick's commentary on government oppression of the porn industry and sex in general, you'd think he would have put more words in Travis's mouth.
