Fully agree with your remarks on Ms. V's tits. Personally, I'd grade them wit a B-. And since this is a very comfortably politicall incorrect forum, I feel free to add some more catogories and grades:

Tits: I'd have to go with Ms. Lacross (Forced Entry) pair. Worth an A each, and an extra for the cutest nipples I ever saw.

Ass: No doubt about that one too: Ms. Monica Moore. I't's plain unfair that we didn't get to see more of her than the half dozen of tapes we have. Another A.

Legs: Hm.....tough one...or isn't it???? Nope...Not really. "And the winner is....." Amy van Allen in "Liza Cord". B

Pussy: That's easy...Holly Weston. (Guinea Pigs series, Alien Probe 1 and many more...).A straight A.

Best acting performance: There she is again.....Ms. Monica Moore. Special bonus recommandation for 'The Reporter' 1 2 (Hell...I missed the oportunity to state my favorite title a few months ago.....so I sneak it in here..)

But let's face it: Only Frankenstein could liek a woman with the tits of Ms. Lacross, the ass of Monica Moore, the legs of Amy van Allen and the pussy of Holly Weston. Like the philosopher said: The total is more than the sum of the parts: The cutest, pretties, sweetest.....was, is and will always be: fan-favorite Ms. Lisa Kinkaid!!!!

Amen!

Damien

Sardu: I'll have to repectfully disagree with your assesment of the two Barbarian Queen movies. Both of those scenes with Lana Clarkson are in my personal collection. I think it's a given that she was a total babe, but she was a total babe tied topless to a rack and tortured. She also got raped after the guy removed her g-string, although she thwarts him before he can complete it. And the second one is even better, IMO. She gets some kind of electric shock used on her (or it appeared that way) in one scene and suspended over a wall of spikes in another. I believe she also gets tortured with a spider on her bound body. These are both two GREAT mainstream scenes, with a beautiful victim.

Later.

Sorry...not even an open invitation by YOU could get me started on this subject again. I stopped caring, and lost interest in whatever update or new vid Rick might be generous enough to provide us with. But hardcore BD and ZFX's good old days will always keep the same warm place in my hart that it always had.

Damien

Brethren let me guide you to a great find from the world of Women in Prison movies. Mainstream yes, but just barely. I mentioned this title once before but with such a generic title, I thought those interested could use some added incentive. If the the SOB series (especially IV, ranks high with you, this is a must. No, it does not approach ZFX but it has a charm all of its own.

The movie is called "Caged Women" or sometimes "Caged Women in Purgatory" Its Italian, made in the 1990's, directed by a guy named Luchetta and stars Pilar Orive. The quickest way to find it is to hit amazon, search vhs, the title "caged women". A number of them will come up, the one you want will say "Caged Women (1997)". Its a bit spendy, Ive seen it elsewhere on the web cheaper, but amazon is a good place to start. You can find out more by searching on Google for "Caged Women" once you know which of the many samed movies you are looking for it gets easy.

Okay g-in-o, you like this movie. But why the big deal?

In short, searching for this stuff is more often enough, lots of work, little reward. 9 out of 10 times, if you find a short scene that is worthy you are lucky indeed. This though is the tenth time. The one that made all that fast forwarding worth it.

The movie starts with a hardly clad woman running through the jungle in panic. Nice looking, only in rags, her naked breasts heaving as she runs through the jungle. Dirt and sweat. She is then viewed from the site of a gun, aiming for her lower leg or foot. She is clearly being hunted. A shot goes off and she falls. Cut to a boat arriving on a beach, out comes our heroine played by Pilar Orive- absolute beauty, almost somewhat Cindy Crawfordish- no faint praise. As she steps off the boat and on to the beach, take in the long legs and short shots, the tight fitting shirt. First time viewers, rejoice, you are going to see a lot more of her in the best of circumstances.

I'll despense with most of the plot. Suffice to say that within minutes you get a good bathing scene (whilst being spied on) and one hot vanilla sex scene. Then the good stuff. As she is framed for drugs by corrupt police, she is naked on a bed. They shoot her up with drugs and carry her off. When she awakes she is in the prison, chained to a table with a blanket thrown over her. She is asleep but reacting to the drug, sweaty and heaving. A lesbian guard stops by and reveals the merchandise, getting a bit of nipple pinching in the process. After she awakes she is taken to another room for a great stripping and inspection scene (she is only in a blanket but the others are fully clothed). Five or so women are stripped. Special mention to the "virgin" who is revealed in a slow deliberate process.

After that its hose-down time- all of them, in a cell, a nice long scene.... Later they are photographed one by one naked. Pilar, angry because they would not need a shot of her ass for identification purposes. And, perhaps belaboring the point, she has one stunning ass.

As the movie continues, Pilar is strapped to a cross and whipped by the lesbo guard (not the best scene but still good, although it pales by ZFX standards.) Later, Pilar, the "virgin", and a tastey shorthaird blonde are rented for the entertainment of the locals. A good stripping scene, but as they do not cooperate, the locals leave dissapointed. What follows is very nice. Pilar and the Blonde are lead across the prison yard and locked into a cage, naked under the hot sun. To keep hydrated, they give each other a thorough tounging on their sweat covered bodies. The warden is still pissed though, which leads to the girl hunt mentioned at the begining of the film. Along the way, there is a nice gladiator type fight in the swamp as our naked heroines are pitted against the local talent for the wardens amusement. In the end... well, who the fuck cares how the damn thing ends..

Hope this isn't too long and will find interested parties. If you find it, I would like to hear other impressions. And, most of all, do they make stuff like this in Italy all the time?

-Regards-

Thanks,

Iago

BTW, Rick, there's a new version of Auran Jet out.

The Wizard's excellent free site has some really good Poser work on it. Does anyone here know of any hot free Poser sites?

Peace,

Iago

Well, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but at least for the time being, the ZFX website is more or less shut down. Apparently Adult Check in their infinite zeal to cover their own ass, decided to no longer control access to the ZFX site due to its depictions of "rape content". Unfortuantely, their rather lily livered selves didnt give me any notice, they just did it, so until I can find a way to control access, i.e. keep the kids out, there will be no ZFX site other than a link to Fantasy Food. The real pisser is I was in the process of uploading the long awaited update to the site, so its a rather frustrating situation, but hopefully one that can eventually be overcome. I may have to remove a good portion of whats up there to find any kind of control provider, regardless. If you would like to voice an opinion to Adult Check about their efforts at censoring, here's the GUY to talk to:P

Not to torture you further but the big surprise was to be video clips on the site! The site was taking a long time because I was capturing tons of stuff to put up there from the older shows, as well as SOB5, but it was taking a while to get the capture card working right. Also, a long continuation of the Fuct In Space series was in place. Anyway, dont despair, eventually I'll get this staightened out, but for the time being, it will have to wait.

Ok, that's it for now, hopefully I will have some good news about the site soon.

Rick

What about Victoria Vixxen? I'm dying to know what happend to those bouncy boobies. And your thoughts on the on-screen tying debate. On screen tying seems to be such a consistant concern on many bondage sites, I haven't really heard anyone say why they don't show the process.

G-in-O: that Women in Prison flick sounds grand. There's a scenario that's done often, but not usually well. I'd love to see Nu West and ZFX team up to make the ultimate women-in-prison flick, but we might have to wait for the next Presidential elections for that.;)

Gary Roberts: When Insex.com's servers get messed with, then I'll really start worrying.Insex is boring as hell lately, but unless I'm wrong, few if anyone else out there (in the US at least) is doing real penetration mixed with bondage. Course, maybe the Bush Devolution hasn't hit NYC yet.

Rick Masters: My ZFX wish list for 2001: 1. More Forum interviews with your starlets. Loved the fun Q&A we had with Lisa Kinkaid. 2. Some sort of set-up involving a pool/pit of goo, slime, and/or quicksand--just for a change of pace and cause they look cool with the right bodies involved. 3. Penelope Pace gets her real tits back. Yeah, I miss 'em too. 4. More scenes where the actress is forced to strip completely, in front of others. 5. Repeats from previous years' lists: no hugging; no Rick Masters nude scenes.

Ok, some good news (for a change), Adult Check has backed off, apparently the mail bombing was rather convincing, or maybe they just decided they were barking up the wrong tree. Thanks to all who voiced their opinions. Anyway, the site is up and updated, video clips are up for some of the shows, but far from the complete line, but its a start. The site needs some debugging as well so if something doesnt work, it will probably be fixed in the near future. I want to work on a better compression setup, like mpeg 2, cause Quicktime massively compressed kinda sux, but like I said, its a start. Ok a couple quick comments:

Gary: Thanks for your input, I am reluctant to switch services unless absolutely necessary, but its good to know theres other less picky ones out there if it becomes a necessity.

Joe Smith: Ms. Vixxen is now Mrs. Vixxen, this happened back in 94 and she pretty much retired at that point since her hubby was not into this type of thing. I doubt you will be seeing her again, at least in a ZFX movie.

I will see what I can do about a Q&A session with one of the gals in the not to distant future.

Ok, thats it for now, thanks to all who read post and watch the movies.

Rick:)

Would love to ask questions to Penelope Pace. 1) How did you get so flexible? 2) Do you prefer playing victim or tormentor? I think you skill at playing villain makes you even more exciting as the captive! 3) What's your natural hair color? I love you as a redhead.

And finally - Would you like to be interviewed by a reporter???

:)

Rick, could you help us? I´m really looking forward to SOB5-pics and even more to clips of several movies.

Thanks, Jaeckill

Quick post about site...you need to go thru the main page, side linking is no longer supported.

Regards,

Rick

Dang. I was looking forward to the new artwork, too.

Ah, well. Peace,

Iago

Good reviews, anyway ;-)

Peace,

Iago

I thought that scene in Forced Entry where Jacylyn was taken from the bed and her hands tied behind her back, on screen, was one of the most erotic in the movie. Maddog, what you say about practical concerns makes a lot of sense, but I also agree that for simple ties like this one in Forced Entry, Rick's gotta show it.

zee-ef-ex

Peace Out,

Iago

What are the odds of those models having computers, or being web-active? The only ZFX performer (female) that I've heard of that showed an interest in the web was Tabitha Jordan, and that didn't seem to last long. The last time she was on, Lisa fessed up that she didn't even own a computer.

Peace Out,

Iago

The main reason we don't see a lot of realistic on-screen tying with a struggling woman is that it's easy to hurt her by mistake. The only way to avoid that is to do a lot of rehearsal and practicing and all that costs money. Loads of bucks ain't exactly in plentiful supply in these videos, though I'd much rather see Rick spend the money to do better on-screen tying than piss it away on laughable "special effects". Rick did some very effective takedowns in his earlier videos and I can only guess that somebody got hurt in one of them and that cooled off his interest in continuing to do them.

As far as watching the progress of the woman being bound as being boring, there's many ways to do it well. The most convincing way is to have two performers comfortable with a long-term bondage relationship that have had a lot of personal practice in tying. Lorelei's been effectively bound and gagged by her boyfriend in a few minutes in some of her old Close-Up KISS videos. There's not a lot of bondage couples where both want to appear on screen, so that's not typically an option. Good editing can compress time so that even an elaborate binding can be effectively applied in a couple minutes. Rick's a good enough editor that he could pull it off. The downside is that it takes longer to film right and budget realities rear their ugly head again. I've tended to prefer progressive tying where the bad guy starts with just the basics, wrists & ankles tied, rip her clothes off, play a little, and apply more if she has too much freedom of movement.

I wasn't sure what was meant by sloppy tying. I don't like loose bondage because it destroys the fantasy. Neat parallel carefully placed ropes just as quickly point out that there's nothing real about the situation. There's plenty of nicely posed bondage work at Harmony and Close- Up. Tight restrictive ropes that are not precisely lined up works for me.

Also, the victim doesn't have to ACTUALLY be struggling. The point of acting is that she makes it look like she's fighting, but it's actually a performance that allows her to get tied. Just like the guys in movies don't really hit each other, the loser just acts like he's getting beaten.

So, just shoot a minute of half-tied struggling. Edit that in between the takedown and the final product and I'm happy. Penelope getting her legs held behind her head in Guilty 2 was hot as shit! So hell, just show them put in the position and that's a start. (i.e. Lisa knocked out cutting to lisa tied spread in Incubus. Show the incubus stretching her arms and legs out so we at least see that he was putting her in that position.)

Am I rambling? Sorry.

Mad Dog: I've noticed that most of the gals I've known who engaged in using their bodies for a living don't seem to use their minds nearly as much, or tend to be more "wily" than actually "sharp," if you get my meaning. I think it might be a culture thing. You hardly hear about these gals on the web. I think it's why when you finally get one like Danni Ashe starting up her own thing and actually being involved, it makes big waves. Most porn sites, I (educated) guess, are just hired by the performers, who have no real interraction with it beyond hoping their investment pays off.

So far as the filming up there in the land of snow goes, I'm always happy to see Kim Noble. I think she's a great bondage model, very animated, and very hot. She also looks really good nude or in tight things. Any idea what movies Rick was shooting her for when he was last up there?

Re: All tied up on stage: I don't care to see all the ropework being done. If I want an educational movie, I'll buy a Bill Majors tape. Zzzzz. Sorry, drifted off. I do that when thinking about B&D Pleasurezzzzzz...

I DO like the idea of a victim struggling while being bound, and struggling while bound. I also like partially incapacitated victims, like in The Dentist, before the girls were completely out, or Forced Entry, during the initial fight with Jacqueline LaCross. Same concept with In Their nature, when they drugged Brigitte, then just watched as the drug set in and she suffered it's effects, unable to escape. Same with Subject Nine, where Penelope gives one of the best ZFX performances on record. I'd like to see more of that, but of course I'm pretty well known as an "evil scientist" type by now, so my opinion is slanted.

Peace Out,

Iago

But then I think of Guilty 2 where it cuts away from Penelope just as the struggling was getting good. I like the idea of partial binding for starters. Once the heavy stuff is underway, I think we accept that they change positions with little resistance because they're so knocked out, but give us some good struggling just to show they're not totally passive.

Personally, what I've always wanted to see was just an attacker with pre-formed loops in his ropes. He slips them over the babe's wrist, tightens it and ties it to something before she even knows what happened. I also want to see the legs actively pulled apart. The complicated stuff can happen later. I'd be cool with this kind of compromise.

What are the good places in Minneapolis to find bondage videos?

As far as bondage videos in Mpls. There are basicaly two stores. One is Sex World and the other is Lickety Split(where the videos were shot) Both are downtown Mpls. Sex world is on Whashington Ave. And Lickety is half a block off Washington on 3rd Ave S. Your better bet would be to check out Lickety. I am not saying that because I am biased. They just carry more bondage videos than the other. But if you make the trip to Mpls I would recommend checking them both out. Seeing as they are only about a mile or so apart. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Rick,

Looks like some of your oldest and trusted supporters are unalble to acces the new stuff at your site...I couldn't help wondering if you'd come to their aid.

So what's it gonna be???? My money's on "sorry....loved to help, but unfortunately, I can't.....".

Damien

Damien: Chill, dood. Rick does what he thinks he must. It's commercially unproductive to keep the fans off of his site, so he must have his reasons.

Peace Out,

Iago

Well....here we go again....can't remember how many times this tape is been recommended by many of the contributers to this excellent board, but I guess it won't hurt to do it again: GET YOUR HANDS ON A COPY OF "CHEERLEADERS OF PERILOUS U"!!! But be warned...this tape could very easily gey you hooked on ZFX tapes.....which means you're in for a lot of fun first, and plenty of disappointments later.

Damien

Stumbled upon this page.

www.tabathajordan.com

On another note, Damien, I am amazed by your bitterness. I also am disappointed that ZFX production has fallen off, but the golden era was truly golden, and although recent releases have been limited in number the quality has been outstanding. Better to light a candle than curse the darkness, I for one simply appreciate what ZFX has provided. Just my opinion, and as has been demonstrated here in the past, often times my opinion is in the minority.

AgH: Fear of persecution after the Meese Commission is the reason there isn't much rape stuff being made these days. That and I don't think it was ever all that hot with the mainstream folks, just with us niche types. With Bush in office, I think a lot of producers are pulling in their cloaks, so to speak, until they get a better idea of what the legal climate over the next few years will be like.

Hmm. Hey Ralphus, what is a really good evil scientist/rape/mind control flick? One not made by ZFX? Do you know of any? Without any Ballista 3 on the horizon, I find myself looking for a fix.

Peace,

Iago

I read your post about the movie and did some research. Apparently, the whole title is called "Maniac Nurses Find Ecstasy", and it's put out by the maniac filmmakers from Troma, which automatically screams out "piece of shit". I even viewed the trailer on the IMDB and while the movie looks pretty cheesy, there was at least a shot of an attractive girl wearing a ballgag. And, did somebody say tit-whipping? I went to their site, www.troma.com, and you can buy the DVD for about nine bucks, and I don't mind taking a chance on garbage if it's at least CHEAP garbage.

Iago: You asked for a really good evil scientist/rape/mind control flick, but then you said it couldn't be one made by ZFX. Hey, no fair! We all know Rick has pretty much a lock on that particular genre, although I've never been one to seek out sci-fi per se, just the rape part. Probably your best bet would be to seek out some of those whacky Japanese vids out there, if you can find them. Some of them can get really over-the-top, plot-wise, and we all know how well they do bondage in Japan. Even though I've only seen one of the series, the "Rapeman" videos from Japan are supposed to have sci-fi aspects worked into their plotlines. I only saw Part 2, but it was good. Try www.videomayhem.com; they might carry them.

A new Guinea Pigs movie. Forget the street drugs bit, let's see more unwilling test subjects with hot bods and skimpy outfits! (okay, so I'm obvious. Sue me.)

Subject 9, part 2 with Penelope had one of Rick's best scenes where Penelope does a fantastic performance while the villain is subjecting her to the drug she herself invented. One like that would be great, sort of a just desserts-type thing.

Alien Probe: Where's a psychologically-torturing, hot-to-inseminate alien when you need one?

Ballista! Ballista!

Sorry. It's late, and I'm tired.

Peace,

Iago

On-screen tying: Like most of you, I´d really love to see the process of overpowering and immobilizing the going-to-be-raped girl! Tie her onscreen, Rick, it doesnt have to be so sophisticated, just arms and legs and a gag to immobilize her. The more complicated stuff you could do offscreen. But also then there are some possibilities of movement: I very much vote with Joe Smith (at least one of them out there :) ) for seeing the victims legs being pulled apart onscreen. This could be done by ropes around her knees pulled by a windlass or by weights while the villain is already standing in front of her -- in the strategically best position so to say - holding a big dildo in his hand waiting in an-ticy-pation ... yesss.

Now for something completely different. Question to the forum: Did anybody watch some videos from the "Violation of ..."-series? I saw some stills from "Violation of Missy" that looked really promising. Is it more or less consentual lesbian stuff or does it show some kind of rape? Or at least severe bondage? Does it depict bondage together with (dildoe-) penetration? Any (short) reviews? The best place to order them?

Mad Dog: Thanks for keeping this place alive. I´m really looking forward to the archive update!

Hard to believe it's now been exactly two years since this forum was launched into cyberspace by the Gimp, back on March 29, 1999. I'm proud to say I was the very first poster. The Gimp and I discussed coming up with a ZFX discussion page after we had an interesting back and forth conversation, via newsgroup posts, when I posted one of my ZFX reviews on alt.sadistic. Then he e-mailed me and asked what I thought about starting up an actual web page devoted to ZFX. I told him I thought it sounded like a great idea, but I had absolutely no web experience and didn't know the first thing about getting something like this started. Well, he did some investigating, found a server, and within a few days this page was born. It started slowly, but eventually people found about it, including Rick Masters himself, who was one of our earliest contributors here. Since then, he has given the readers here exclusive updates on his upcoming work, and we've had some other members of the industry, including ZFX's own Lisa Kinkaid, contribute to the board. I've made some friends among the regular posters to the page, as well as discovered some exciting bondage/torture websites and videotapes, as a direct result of reading this forum, and I hope others have gotten something out of it, as well. Maybe the best thing has been the chance to interact freely with others about our love of such normally socially taboo subjects as rape, bondage and torture, without, as recent poster Kallas mentioned, everyone thinking they should be calling 911. I myself am proud to call myself a perv, and this is a great place to hang out. Thank you Gimp, wherever you are, for starting this page and giving us this forum. And thanks to Mad Dog for his insights in moderating it. Happy Anniversary everyone!

Mad Dog started off as a practical and cool insight into ZFX, and gre into a fine moderator, without losing his easy-going and basically good-natured ways. There have been a lot of other great posters along the way, and I've enjoyed your typings.

And, well, we'll just forget about the odd advertiser that tries posting here, and the guys that are so...fruity that even I think they're off the deep end. To each their own, if they are still out there.

Here's to more years, more enjoyment, and more ZFX! Like, soon! Ya, Rick! Ya! Mush!

Grins,

Iago

Thanks for the vote of agreement. Now, I'd be thrilled to get the on-screen tying going, but might I suggest one more controversy? Would anyone object to a few more gagless scenes? It's fun to hear the girls protest. And most of the stories support this too. If girls are taken to private warehouses for torture, or in a private home, nobody's going to here them.

Again, this can be a compromise. Some gag scenes and some ungagged. I personally don't like the way those big balls look. They cover too much of the pretty face. Maybe a compromise would be thinner gags that don't cover the face so much.

Thanks.
