In the 70s and early 80s, HOM models in mags or movies weren't credited (ergo no names). Then sometime during the 80s, not sure when, model name credits started appearing (most likely not their real names,). Some models even had multiple names. Sharon Montgomery was also Kelly Long and Chris something-or-other. Karen Arthur appeared as Carolyn Clark when she wore a particular long Blonde wig. And there were many others. All the models in the EP loops seem to be from the earlier period (no name credits given). Even tho the EP loops aren't officially HOM, I still think of them as HOM.

The girl in Damian's modified photo/artwork is also an unknown. I have a couple mags with photo series of her, she always seems to end up suspended with her legs spread wide. Georgia van Helsing was in this position in one of the Punished vids. Producers should use this position more!

Electric asian vid? Can't see it; can't use Kazaa on a mac. If it's an asian girl, then it's more than likely a japanese BDSM film/video. I hear many are quite good, bigger budgets than in the states. I'm sure that helps a lot :)

Hey, Where's the signature smiley face? It's been missing the last few posts.

As a side note, the film of her is actually so lame that you can watch it for free at ifilm.com. There is a link to it inside the yahoo story I had in the post. HOWIE

Yeah, I agree about the Joe Millionaire chick's stuff being tame. I watched the 4 minute clip on that link and started dozing off after a minute and half :) I kept thinking WWRD...What Would Rick Do?

Still, I watch that show so I knew who she was, and I think it's very cool to get to see her tied up and gagged, even with her clothes on. She's pretty, busty, a Smokin' Babe and she did bondage tapes. If I were Evan, I know who I would choose!

I trust you on the clip being tame...I'll pass. Although she's not unattractive, she's still not one of the one's I was hoping it would be. Allison or Mellisa on the other hand, it'd be a different story.

Later.

But it gets even better. While the one girl is tortured with hot steamy water in the shower, the other man comes up with this ingenious method of making the dark-haired girl talk. After binding her hands and feet and tape-gagging her, he removes the wires from an electrical cord and tapes them over her nipples. Then he pours water over her bare body. After giving her one last chance to confess, he puts the other end of the cord into the socket and gives her several nasty shocks to her breasts, over and over until smoke is coming off her chest. It's all done with quick cuts, but it's an awesomely effective scene, and way ahead of its time for 1968.

I couldn't imagine this film being made today, let alone marketed to the public. We're talking ZFX-type torture here. Something Weird Video, who owns all rights to the movie, is selling that and all their other VHS tapes for just $10 through March 31. Trust me, this one is a real buried treasure, not to be missed.

Looks interesting though. It's funny too 'cause I was just thinking that Hank hasn't been by in a while.

Later.

I checked in tonight to see what people are talking about. Believe it or not, it looks like Something Weird just redid their website. It looked totally different from two days ago. And yeah, it was VERY slow-loading, when I could get it to load. But The Pick-Up is there; you just have to wade through most of the P's before you get to it, and there's a lot of "Peepshow" entries in there before it. And I agree, they don't have their site set up very well.

The special sale is not even advertised on the site, it was a card I got in the mail. But here's how to skip the junk and just cut to the chase: Send them an e-mail at questions@somethingweird.com and tell them you want to take advantage of their $10 VHS sale (postage is $4 for the first tape, $1 for each additional one). Just list the titles you want and you can even include your credit card number and they can process the order that way. Too bad they make it so hard to order their merchandise, but there's some wild titles in their catalog that are worth checking out. It might be easier to have their catalog sent to you; it's easier to flip through that than it is to go through that slow-moving site. Remember, the sale is through the end of March, so you have plenty of time.

Go figure :)

The Pickup does look kinda cool. Any other notable movies there?

My guess is they may eventually release it on DVD as the most recent caps (not the one Ralphus has up tonight,that's old from the VHS tape)I got off of a Something Weird DVD called "The Defilers" as a preview trailer and it was much sharper than the VHS.

If anyone is interested in Something Weird DVD's they can be ordered from Amazon.com and often found in the Borders stores. They are much better than VHS and are loaded with extras.I just got the new release of the 1969 classic "The Ramrodder" with it's classic whipping scene, it looks great and Amazon is cheaper than ordering from "Weird".

Lana Clarkson who was murdered yesterday did some great bondage scenes in the "Barbarian Queen" series so I just e-mailed a couple of caps to Ralphus, maybe he will use them here or use the links above.

Later, Hank

I was watching TV tonight and just happened to flip to "Inside Edition" where I heard the horrible news. I was aware of the Phil Spector murder case, but in this morning's paper, they hadn't listed the name of his victim. My jaw dropped when they announced on the show that it was actress Lana Clarkson, who was the star of two of the best bondage/torture scenes in history, Barbarian Queen and its sequel Barbarian Queen 2. To say that the Barbarian Queen movies are among my favorite scenes of all time is putting it mildly. They had a great influence on me. In the first movie, Lana was topless, tied to a vertical rack and tortured with a hand-shaped object with a needle in the finger, that stabs her in the breast whenever he turns the rack. Then he removes her thong panties and tries to rape her while she's tied to the rack, but she squeezes him off with her legs and throws in a vat of acid! Need I mention that Lana was a gorgeous blonde with a killer body.

Then, amazingly, Lana topped herself in the sequel, which boasts an even more impressive torture scene. Lana is tied to another vertical rack and stretched, moaning in pain. The villain strips her top off, which we get to see with a great overhead shot. After some more torture, this rack gets turned so that she is suspended over a bed of razor-sharp spikes and the slowly lowered so that she will soon be impaled by the spikes. She is left alone but manages to escape her doom (Boo!) but is recaptured (Yes!) and placed back on the rack again and sentenced to a slow death by torture. Afterward, she has to endure a live tarantula placed on her body while tied to another rack.

Not only are both these torture scenes explicit for a major motion picture, the fact that Lana apparently had no qualms about doing them topless added to her appeal for me. Both these scenes put her in the Bondage Hall of Fame in my book. She was an absolutely beautiful woman, and gave excellent performances in both these unforgettable scenes. I'll forever have a warm spot in my heart (and in my loins) for her. I'm very sad that she's gone :'(

For me, it was a movie I didn't even see, (still haven't cause i can't figure out what movie it was). I was a teenager browsing some video store going out of business, and I saw this movie. I can't remember the stupid name, but the plot description in the back said it was about some chick who gets hassled by these guys and they almost rape her, but she escapes. THen later, they follow her home and rape her at home. She later, gets a gun and seeks revenge on the guys. Anyway, something about that plot description really excited me..but I couldn't find a way to get the tape without my parent's finding out. The store closed and I never found that tape again.

The first actual movie I saw was probably this prison flick with nazis torturing women. one of the women was dunked into boiling water, and then put into freezing water till she froze to death. another woman was forced to be a whore but she tried stabbing a customer or nazi and they tied her upside down on some wooden sticks and left her to die. (oh and they cut her up so she was bleeding to death). i have no clue what movie that was though.

http://www.straythoughts.com/video/extreme/extremepg1/extreme.htm

If anyone knows the name of this movie, I would like to know because I would like to see it again now that I am all grown up. The vidcap makes it look like a good seen.

Searching the airwaves for something interesting to watch, I remember another one where they tied a girl down and stuck the barrel of a pistol in her you know what. She was screaming and struggling until the guy with the pistol said that with all her kicking it might accidently go off. Well, she quieted right down after that. Ah, those were the days . . .

The other tape you mentioned with the woman being dunked in boiling water, then put in freezing water until she freezes to death is a lovely Nazi atrocity called SS Experiments. It was also one of the first scenes I ever collected (along with I Spit On Your Grave), being included on my very first highlights tape from back in 1985 or so. There have been 93 more since then.

My first bondage flick? Well, the day I started the tape, the first two movies I included were Maniac with Joe Spinell and The Devonsville Terror. Maniac features an awesome bed-tie scene with Abigail Clayton. She's gagged with a yellow cleave and makes great reactions while Spinell climbs on top of her and tells her what he's going to do with her. The suspense is really good, and it was shot with lots of close ups of her gagged face and tied wrists. He ends up stabbing her in the chest, sort of the "orgasm shot" of the scene. It's still one of the best death scenes I've ever seen.

The Devonsville Terror is loaded with bondage and torture scenes, including a scene where a woman is tied to a wheel that is set afire and rolled down a hill, another where a woman is tied by her wrists to the back of a car and dragged along a road at high speed, and two great burning at the stake scenes, a favorite fetish of mine.

Paulus Atreides: Thanks for the tip on that "I Spit on Your Grave" website. I had partially forgotten Siskel and Ebert's line about seeing the movie: "It makes men want to rape women". Yeah, right! Like we really need to see a movie just for that :) Just for kicks, I checked to see if Roger Ebert's original review for the film was still available online. I couldn't find it, but I have a copy of one of his review books and found it there. He mostly describes his revulsion about hearing people in the audience cheer on the rapists during the movie. One of the final lines in his review reads: "There is no reason to see this movie except to be entertained by the sight of sadism and suffering." There you go, Rog. Gotta agree with you there. Yeah! Where can I buy a ticket?

Ralphus, at one point you bemoaned the fact that noone was reviewing flix like SOB6, out since November. Haven't seen it, man. Life is just too busy.

Build up to action? Definitely. I have posted here many times before about my preference for slow pacing, for the development of a sense of menace. I could almost go so far as to make or enjoy a whole movie about one tie-down. Say, the girl is drugged and can only feebly fight back. She is slowly, methodically stripped on the bed, slowly placed in bondage, slowly gagged, slowly nipple clamped - etc, you get the idea. I want to see her eyes widen as the gag approaches her face. That kind of scene can never be too long for me. I know everybody on this forum has a different freak - that's mine.

Realistic or not? Varies, I like everything. Give me a Forced Entry realistic looking home invasion any day, sure. But give me some outlandish tentacles another day, that's fine, too. I like menace, fetishistic elements, and sexual themes, i.e. light on the torture, heavy on the bound sex.

Dark Offering? One thing I have found over the years is that many of Rick's flix grow on me over time. Dark Offering didn't do too much for me at first. Now it's one of my favorites.

What else, what else? I had so much reading to do to catch up with the forum that I'm forgetting...Oh, I agree with Unicol about bed bondage and overhead shots and seeing her that way instead of up-the-skirt. I've always been a big fan of standing shots with arms and legs spread, too. I like to see her taut muscles and straining -- an arched, stretched female body is always beautiful, looks like she's struggling/cumming (they're the same thing in a way, aren't they?)

A quick OT question for you folks. A while ago we had a mini-debate about DVD vs. VCR. I like the convenient copying features of a VCR and am loathe to buy a mere PLAYER of any kind, including DVD, rather than a RECORDER. To me, a PLAYER is a hobbled, defective product. But, for those of you have gone digital, let me ask you - how easy it to set up a DVD player with a Video Casette Recorder? (Mind you, I still have several VCRs in great working condition which I bought well before Macrovision anticopying technology was invented and I have NEVER had a problem dubbing one videotape to another tape). If I could rent DVDs and easily copy them onto videotapes simply by connecting a DVD Player to a VCR Recorder on top of my TV, I might take the plunge. If there's any hassle factor at all, I don't have time for that. So, is anyone out there dubbing from DVD to VCR?

Quick questions for RICK MASTERS. I like gym scenes, cheerleaders, anything placing the girl in the context of exercise, sunlight, fresh and healthy. I especially like the contrast of the happy go lucky health exercising cheerleader wearing her skimpy cheerleading outfit or changing from that to a bikini or something, in the sun ... contrasted to the dark dungeon/lair/isolated bedroom etc. You've done some scenes with elements of these -- Beyond Driven (?) - the scene on the weightlifting bench, yum, and another one with Lisa (?) and another girl walking up the road, also Alison Parish and the truck drivers had some touches of this. FWIW, I'd like to see more of this type of dynamic -- what do you say?

Second question: I love those miniclips on the Net of girls riding Sybian horse vibrators or fucking machines, also like girl-girl strap on scenes. I've rarely seen any of these which included bondage, however. What I like about it, let's face it, human dicks get soft. I like the whole idea of the girl being penetrated by something which keeps going and going and going like the energizer bunny. What I'm picturing is a scene where the girl is tied to a Sybian or a facking machine with the vibrator deep inside her and the windows or clock or whatever show it's night time, say, and then you see her again and there's sunlight outside and she's completely frazzled looking like the things been doing her for 12 hours. There's a short bondage and fucking machine scene in Jenna Haze's best movie, Big Bottom Sadie, that turned my crank big time.

So, Rick, will you be buying a Sybian and or fucking machine for your flix? Thanks - zee-ef-ex

As for dubbing from a DVD to a VCR, I create my own highlight tapes where I re-edit stuff to suit my own personal style of fantasy. So, being able to copy is important for me too. I am not a techno geek, but I am pretty sure that if you have a pre-macrovision VCR you should be able to copy from a DVD to a VHS with the same ease as from one VCR to another. Pretty sure, but not positive.

However, most "adult" tapes are not Macrovision protected anyway, I think because the cost of installing that type of protection (due to royalties that would be owed to the folks that invented Macrovision) is too high for small producers.

I have a Sampo DVD player, and I have flashed the firmware back to an earlier version so I could disable Macrovision and the Region encoder. Since the Sampo machine will play both PAL and NTSC on any TV set, I can play and copy to VHS any DVD from anywhere in the world (well, maybe not SECAM, but does anyone make DVDs in SECAM?) with the same ease as I can from a VCR. The Sampo players are cheap (I paid about $170 a couple of years ago for mine), but it can be a little complicated getting it set up right to disable Macrovision (I had to study some techno-geek websites for a while -- those guys on the techno-geek sites are smart!), but they are great machines once you get them up and running.

If you do shop for a Sampo player, beware of people selling the SAME player for about twice the price. There are a lot of people who buy the Sampo players and flash the firmware and then advertise it as a Region free Macrodvision disabled player so they can sell it at a huge mark-up (like double the price). It is not that hard to flash the firmware yourself, as long as you have a CD burner on your computer, and it can save you a couple of hundred bucks.

In addition to Macrovision there is this thing called CSS that you have to watch out for on DVDs if you want to make digital copies, either with a computer or with a digital camcorder. I know there is software out there to get rid of CSS (called "deCSS" I think), but I haven't had any experience with that. CSS is more complex than Macrovision and it is somehow ingrained into the DVD itself, whereas Macrovision is somehow put on the output signal by the DVD player if the DVD has a code signal to tell the DVD player to turn on Macrovision protection. That is why you can get some DVD players like the Sampo player to simply turn off Macrovision, but you cannot turn-off CSS.

Well, I am sure that is way more information than you wanted, but it took me a long time to learn all this stuff (many hours reading technical websites when I would rather have been reading Bring out the Gimp), so I thought I would pass the knowledge along.

Luckily, the people I buy tapes from (ZFX and Forbidden) don't seem to use CSS or Macrovision.

And on a personal note to Rick from ZFX and Steve from Forbidden. I really sympathize with the problems you have had with unscrupulous individuals making and selling multiple copies of your tapes. I want you guys to know that I bought my Forbidden tapes and DVDs direct from Forbidden and my ZFX tapes direct from Fantasy Food. The next ZFX tape I will buy will be direct from the new ZFX on-line store. I do not condone copying for unlawful distribution in any way. My reason for copying is to create highlight tapes that are edited to suit my own personal taste in fantasy. For me those highlight tapes are private and I don't let anyone else even watch them. They are for my own personal use. And I always buy directly from the original source because I want the highest quality available.

I don't know anything about flashing the firmware on the DVD player as mentioned by Unicoi, however, I was delighted to discover that by use of a device that I purchased at Circuit City (a SIMA Video CopyMaster - the name even appeals to me!) for about $50, I was able to overcome this difficulty. Regular dubbing cables work fine for this purpose. The Video Out cable from the playing DVD player needs to go to the Video Input of the CopyMaster and a single cable needs to be connected from the Video Output of the Copymaster to the video In of the VHS recorder. The CopyMaster needs to be plugged into an electrical outlet and turned on and it should be set to color rather than black and white (duh). It's really quite simple even for me. I hope other bondage enthusiasts will find this information useful for their best scene copying pleasure!

I have not rented many videos on DVD yet, but have not had any difficulties with any of the DVDs I have rented so far thanks to this excellent device. I still generally rent videos in VHS, largely because I am in the habit of doing this and because I prefer the smooth fast forward obtained using VHS tapes to the choppy still pictures obtained when fast forwarding on a DVD. However, I should probably make the switch to renting DVDs soon because of the greater clarity available on DVD and the constantly expanding selection available. I am looking forward to purchasing a new computer with a DVD recorder. I am not sure yet whether it will be possible to effectively record from one DVD to another by using a CopyMaster or whether a DVD recorded on my computer will play properly on my DVD player (are they compatible?).

Another reason I am tempted to get a DVD recorder is to transfer my huge collection of favorite bondage scenes from R and X-rated movies from VHS over to DVD before my VHS tapes deteriorate too much. I am not sure whether this is a good time to purchase a computer with a DVD recorder or whether I should wait until these recorders improve in quality and decrease further in price. I am also not sure what video editing software would be best to use for this purpose. If anyone can offer further advice, it would be greatly appreciated by me and I imagine by many others. I hope that further technology will not block our ability to record our favorite scenes for our own personal use. I'm sure that many of us would not rent nearly as many videos if we were not able to save our favorite scenes.

There is only one rape scene and it comes about twenty minutes into the film. The scene is short but powerful. Two or three guys grab two girls from the park and drive them to an abandoned warehouse. I know, I know, that scene has been done a gajillion times, but the difference here is that the warehouse is clean and well lit and the acting is WAY more believable than on any rape scene in any "adult" movie I have seen.

One of the two girls just sort of lies there and takes it, which didn't turn me on very much, but the other one screams and crys and struggles and kicks as the guy first pulls down her jeans and then she grabs her panties and struggles as he rips those off as well. At some point, I think he punched her in the face, but I edited that part out of my highlight tape. There is some real good screaming/crying as he gives her the old in and out. What really put this scene over the top for me was that they showed a close-up of the first moment of penetration and the quality of her screaming at that moment was superb. You could just feel the agony in her voice as he stuck it in.

I like to be able to feel what the victim is feeling in these types of scenes. And this scene really lets me do that. I only wish the scene had lasted longer. The whole scene was maybe two or three minutes, and the penetration shots (my favorite part) were maybe ten or fifteen seconds. Still, the scene had stripping, a quick breast fondle, full frontal nudity, great screaming and struggling, great acting and a good penetration shot.

Gosh, if only the "adult" movie producers out there could make nice long forced sex scenes with the same level of intensity and gritty reality as the scene in Baise Moi I would be a very happy camper!!!

I got my copy from www.dvdzone2.com, but do not order from them unless you are sure that you can play a Region 2 DVD in PAL format. I noticed that they are selling the DVD in Region 1 NTSC format at Amazon.com, but I have no idea whether the one they are selling at Amazon has been cut or not. The penetration shots in teh rape scene were controversial worldwide. I wouldn't be surprised if they were cut from the domestic version, but I don't know if they were or not, since I have not seen a US copy.

I don't know the name of the other character that got raped or the actress that played her. She was the screamer that got stripped and graphically (albiet briefly) penetrated, and after the rape scene, her role in the film was done. She was only there to spice up the rape scene I think, and perhaps to show the emotional pain from the ordeal that Raffaela Anderson hid from the rapists. The screamer did not get sodomized as far as I can remember.

Once the rape scene is over, Raffaela Anderson teams up with a prostitute played by Karen Lancaume and the two of them go on a rampage of sex and violence. Karen Lancaume is not part of the rape scene. Both of them have many more steamy nude sex scenes of the consensual variety throughout the rest of the movie.

The women in the rape scene were young and attractive in my opinion, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. They were both brunette, both had nice fit bodies, both had nice B-cup breasts.

There was no bondage. The screamer was subdued by a couple of blows to the head, and her nose was bloody during the rape scene. The other one simply offered no resistance. I would have much prefered that they had been tied or held down, but I still found the scene to be intense and realistic. Glad you enjoyed the review!

I heard from a friend of mine that South of the Border 6 has finally come out in a local video store and that it was fantastic and well worth the wait. I can't wait to see it! I figured this would be the case based on Ralphus's terrific review and the images he has posted.

I recently saw a movie called Russian Slaves 23 which I enjoyed a lot. It had a couple of sexy young girls who were punished for their lesbian behavior. One girl with long brown hair was tied face-down on a table and caned until her bottom was destroyed by cane marks. The lady continued to cane her long after she started crying with tears pouring down her cheeks. A beautiful blonde was then tied to the same table face-up and a large number of clothespins were placed all over her breasts and pussy. Unfortunately, she didn't react very much.

Another recent movie I enjoyed was the Stepbrother by Forbidden Video. I couldn't pass up the great special they offered previous customers on this DVD! It had a couple of young hotties (especially the blonde) who were tied up and raped. The DVD had excellent video quality! The girls appeared to be completely at the mercy of the wicked intruder (the devious stepbrother of the blonde in disguise). Of course, I would have enjoyed the movie even more if the girls were also tied (preferably in a standing position) and tortured as well as raped, but I sure can't complain :-) The movie also contained an excellent "sleepy girl" scene in which the blonde (who had taken sleeping pills before going to bed) was molested and videotaped by her evil stepbrother while she slept. Keep up the great work Steve!

of course, any moment now, the above pic will change, so nevermind.

Last night I watching one of the ZFX classics, the original Miss Ballista. Is it possible that it was really released way back in 1999? Doesn't seem that long, but what a great movie! Anyway, there's a scene where Penelope Pace has Lisa Kinkaid tied up standing, with her arms raised above her. Lisa is still wearing her Ballista costume, and Penelope removes it from her body, but not the way I would have expected. She unhooked Lisa's right wrist, pulled the costume off her right arm, then tied up her right wrist, unhooked the other arm and took the costume off that way. It seemed like great care was taken to preserve the costume (possibly because two sequels were forthcoming?).

Anyway, I remember that in the third and final Ballista movie, the bad men cut off her costume and ripped it into pieces, leaving her stripped bare. My question for Rick Masters is: Whatever happened to the remainder of her costume? Being a ZFX fan and a lover of movie memorabilia, I'm wondering if the costume was saved. Was there more than one? I'll bet it would fetch a small fortune (among pervs anyway) if it were to be auctioned off on eBay or something. I don't wanna sound like a geek (okay, everybody around here already knows I am), but I would dig a souvenir like the original Ballista costume or the gold boots or the comic book. Just think, Rick, of all the extra bucks you could make just by selling off wads of used duct tape that were actually used on the mouths of ZFX actresses! The mind boggles...

zee-ef-ex

BTW, I finally received - after,hem, a few months - my own dvd copy of High Strung, which I liked VERY, VERY much :-) Can't wait to see SOB6 ! Ralphus and/or rest of the world : any comments on the other two "vintage" films ? Rod

I honestly can't recall any other details about the other two segments in the video, but I liked it overall. Tru Detective? Can't remember much about it, other than one of my favorite early ZFX actresses, Sierra Stuart, stars in it, and I remember thinking her hair was too short. Weird, huh? That's one I would really have to watch again on DVD to give it a fair chance.

It's also great to see two new hot actresses in one new release. Ashley Blake had a gorgeous face and seeing her get abused seemed at times almost like watching someone like Farrah Fawcette get tortured. That Elaine Payton had a body that won't quit and acted very well (even if she did have difficulty pronouncing the word embassy in the outtake :-) She had the kind of slender, young-girl body that I love to see! I think she would have been even hotter without the glasses, but at least they came off at the end. Of course, Lisa was also terrific as always.

Its obvious that Rick and the rest of the ZFX staff went to a great deal of effort to do things to perfection and give us all the things that ZFX is famous for. I was so excited by the video that I stayed up half the night watching it. Being able to watch a ZFX movie on a DVD was a real treat; the video quality was so amazing that I felt almost likeI was there and could reach out and defile the glistening bodies of the helpless victims myself. (Probably about the only way you could have made the movie even more realistic would be with 3D.) Even my VHS copy of the best scenes came out sharp and clear.

Of course, the video was quite heavy on sizzling scenes of torture and would mainly appeal to those who enjoy seeing this, although there were also some excellent scenes of rape and sexual molestation. In this regard, I particularly enjoyed the scene where Elaine Peyton was tied down and raped while her pussy was still raw from just having been tortured with a burning cigarette. I loved all the finishing touches such as watching the sparks fly when the women were shocked and the smoking scenes (no pun intended) where Elaine was shocked until her pussy smoked and then burned in numerous places with a smoking cigarette. Great suspension scenes also with the girls hung up like a piece of meat and beaten until they were raw. I never tire of watching beauties get tortured until they pass out! Something about a limp female body that gets me very hard. It was also a pleasure to see preview scenes from previous movies with the clarity of DVD. I hope others enjoy the movie as much as Ralphus and I did.

And then tell me, because I want to see the whole tape!

A brief comment on "I Spit on Your Grave". Careful...I was limp for about a week without being able to get it up to even if I had to save my life.

Anyone's who's seen it knows what I'm talking about. Probably pretty tame by today's standards but back then...as Marlon Brando puts it..."The horror". Or Elmer Fudd if you prefer..."The howwa".

Later.

That's why I told him...only watch the first half and you'll think you've seen a great movie!

From the few stills I've seen of it and the reviews, I have a feeling it'll be one of my favorites. My favorite type of scenes are when a woman is hanging by her wrists and whipped savagely. I also like it when there's some breast bondage and torture. A scene I don't like is when the woman's hands are tied behind her back and she's bent over and whipped....

Ralphus, could you put in the picture description what movie its from. Who is that hot chick with all the clothespins?

This is a really nice site full of high quality bondage and torture pics, and the good news is: free membership! I don't know how long that's going to last, but by all means, get down there and load up!

dvd alert : London /HOM has just released a new batch of dvd, such as Bondage Classics vol. 10 to 12 (isn't Renee Baker featured in volume 11?), and a few HOM films from the late 80's, including Bondage Impossible (?), Bondage Cheerleaders (??) and Bondage Boot Camp, the latter featuring MEN as the dom, which is quite rare. You can take a look at the complete list of new releases at fivestardvd.com or cduniverse.com. The good thing is that, although Sunshine does not distribute the "new" vintage London/HOM videos anymore, the prices are still nice : these new titles cost 12 to 15 dollars...Any comments on these movies?

Rod,
I have already received about half of the newer London releases that I want, with another shipment on order. I was gonna hold off posting until I got the second order, but CDUniverse is lagging. One of the newer releases that I did get was Bondage Classics 10. I ordered it partially because I learned that one of my favorite old school HOM models, Lonnie Andrews is in one of the loops. Keep in mind that while I have seen lots and lots of Chads from that era, I have only seen a few of the old HOM films, and own none.

I didn't think I would really like any of the bondage classics loops, partially because they don't have live sounds. I'm big on live sounds. Well, this gem has quickly leapt to one of my all time favorites. For the first time, I feel like I am really getting a taste of what inspired Rick and Dan to do the work they do. This is really good stuff. I muted the sound and turned on a song called 'Angel' by Massive Attack (just try it), and was amazed. The bondage is tight, the lighting just right and the models...

I was floored when I saw Marti Kaye in Red Hot Captive. The Chads of this model have been making their way around the net for years, and yet I had no idea that they were actually stills from a movie. The model is seriously hot and she really sells the scene to the viewer. when she is begging and pleading to the camera, I really think it better that there is no sound.

As for most of the other new releases from London, I have to say that they are more examples of how far HOM fell in quality. I might recommend Legends of the Torturer, which is kind of a 'best of' from other vids. Some of the scenes are pretty cool though.

Frankly, I think some of the newer releases from Bruce Seven to be much better. Bruce doesn't get much respect in this forum, and I think it's because it's scene bondage. There is no rape and usually, the only male is Bruce himself. For all that, there are some seriously gorgeous girls in these vids. Most of it is well filmed and for once we get to see whippings that are actually real and intense.

I wish CDUniverse would get it's act together. One of the dvds I have on order is SOB6 and I amlooking forward to getting it.

I finally ordered - in addition to SOB6 - Bondage Classics 12 because it included outdoor bondage (too bad, you sold vol. 10 well !), and Bondage Boot Camp, because I have the feeling that it was one of HOM's last attempt (1988/89 ?) at portraying a male villain. I was about to order Bondage Impossible too, because it features Trinity 'Bright Lights Big Titties' Loren, but I finally decided to wait (wisely?). The only loop collection in which the absence of live sound is no problem, IMHO, must be the Erotic Perversions series, probably because the action is so hard that the disco/lounge music provides a "necessary" balance. Such is not the case with "lighter" stuff like most of the HOM loops,that's why I'll try 'Angel' ;-)

As for Bruce, I'm a big fan of his Buttslammers series (and Bionca's Everybody Wants Some), and his bondage output deserves some respect, because of all the stunning girls featured. The "scene" thing doesn't bother me that much, as long as Careena 'Casee' Collins is here. Downside : the dvd quality for some of the titles -Ecstasy of Payne comes to mind - is less than stellar, to say the least.

Gonzo: Lonnie in Nina Never Knew loop is an OK loop, cause Lonnie's hot, but it's a solo model flick. Her best loop (and only other Lonnie loop far as I know) is Code of Honor on BC11 where she gets slapped around and molested by the hooded Whitman. It includes an implied penetration by dildo scene.

Why, The Abductors, of course! We talked about this one earlier. Naked cheerleaders in bondage, rape, suspension...this one has it all. Not to mention rib-tickling dialogue. A true classic, as are all three of the Ginger films. Above is another look at the review I posted a while back.

Back to HOM, and speaking of 'Bondage Classics' and 'Punished' : do the Whitman loops/shorts included in the BC collection belong to the Punished series (or vice-versa), or are they totally different loops?

Thanks again

However I just got my copy of SOB6 in the mail and finished watching it. What can I say, it was definitely one of the better ZFX vids to come out in a while. I especially loved the strip search scene with Elaine Payton. The skirt, PANTYHOSE, glasses, and all just made it seem like something that could actually happen. Rather than just being some weird anonymous fantasy setting where the chick is stripped nude before anything is done to her. And then with the hose left halfway down her thigh while a close up inspection is done...mmmmmmm. The only I wish could have been done was to show him actually sticking his fingers in and digging around "looking" for whatever. To see the fingers actually pressing and distending the belly while searching...aaaah, maybe in the future? ;)

The rest of the film was quite good also, though I wish they hadn't been so quick to pull down the flimsy bra the first girl was wearing. Seeing her breasts manhandled through that would have added that much more "reality" to the show rather than overt "male fantasy."

Anyone who hasn't seen this yet should be ashamed of themselves.

/rant on/ And one thing I noticed in the forum a bit further down. Mention of copying DVD's rather than purchasing them hurts when I think of people like Rick trying to eke out a living by making stuff that is so on the fringe that he's never going to get rich doing this stuff. Granted a multi-billion dollar corporation like AOL Time Warner can (and does) soak up the losses due to revenue from video stores purchasing thousands of copies of their tapes. I imagine Rick gets hit pretty hard by this stuff.

Hell, think of it in purely selfish terms. The less people pirate Rick's (and other director/producers that you like) works the more money he'll have to improve what he's able to do.

I mean one of the bondage/rape fantasies I'd LOVE to see Rick do as only he can is something set in Medieval Europe with period costuming. Or hell, the old southern plantations with an uprising of slaves teaching their masters wives a thing or two... IE - things that can cost a considerable sum of money, especially when you want to see the stuff violently ripped/cut/shredded off them while. /rant off/

Anyway, I'll get off my soapbox... I'm pretty sure you're all sick of it by now... :) But I still think Rick deserves every penny he can get for doing the stuff that he does that pretty much NOONE else will do. Granted, others like Forbidden Video do try, but they've still got a ways to get to where Rick is at, though I do like the full penetration rape scenes they have in their video's now and then. PS - I know not everyone uses a Macrovision defeater to pirate movies. Some just want to make compilations of the good scenes from movies they already own.

Ralphus - Great job on the board here. Wish there were still as much discussion on ZFX as in the past, but what can you do when video's are so infrequent now. Though it definitely has gotten better recently.

Rick (if your still lurking somewhere) - MORE PANTYHOSE, hehe... Just a personal thing here. I just love the whole fantasy of a "powerful" business woman/lawyer/etc. taken down. Especially the slow stripping away of all their physical and psychological protections. I love imagining how they must feel even more vulnerable when their pantyhose is only halfway down, or just ripped rather than being completely off. How it keeps alive that little bit of hope that if they aren't completely nude they can still somehow make it through OK. And then when they finally do lose everything at the end, they're broken. Anyway, most important of all keep up the good work. And don't let anyone disuade you from using "costuming" to good effect even if it's something mundane like a "business suit" or aerobics outfit (mmmmmm, Video Pirates, Forced Entry and that wonderful rape scene in Evil Man - Beyond Driven 2) or whatever else fits a scene.

Amazing to think that I've been a fan of ZFX since 91 when I saw True Detective. Rented them until they disappeared in the state of Washington and then started purchasing them back in '95 or so. I think I own about 30 or 40 ZFX video's right now and am in the process of converting them to DVD's.

Which brings me to another question Rick (I hope you are around). When you converting the older stock to DVD, are you mastering them using the original footage? If so, I'll probably end up purchasing most of the stock over again as VHS quality just plain...well...sucks. ;)

For the person complaining that DVD's don't have smooth fast forward. They do, it's all in the DVD player. Generally the cheaper the player the choppier the fast forward. My 3 yr old Toshiba player can do smooth DVD fast forward up to about 4x. 8x-32x is choppy however. Still 4x fast forward is still faster than my VHS player. My father's el-cheapo Panasonic DVD player however is a tiny bit choppy even at 2x. My mom's Sony DVD player in Japan was smooth all the way up to 16x. But they spent about 1,000,000 yen for it, approximately 800 dollars.

About Baise Moi, great film. I haven't watched the American version of it yet, but I believe they removed the penetration from the Rape Scene, though I'm not positive on this. I own the french version that I bought from Amazon.com.

Like yourself, I am also strongly opposed to the idea of selling pirated copies of videos like those produced by ZFX although I don't see the harm in recording favorite scenes for your own personal use. Most people certainly can't afford to buy every video they like a few good scenes in. However, I would certainly encourage people to buy (preferably directly from Rick's website) any videos that they really loved even if they already have an excellent copy of their favorite scenes. From a selfish standpoint, you could think of this as voting for your favorite videos in hopes that more like it will be produced in the future. Also, ZFX deserves the money for its excellent productions which drive us all nuts and needs the profits to hire more gorgeous hotties to use and abuse!

Silent Buddha: Great post, and don't stay away so long next time. No surprise that I echo your praise for SOB-6, and it's gotten nothing but positive words on this board from everyone who's seen it.

It's interesting that you pointed out the clothing. Someone commented that they like it when the clothes are left partially on as opposed to actually nude. I like that, too. I suppose if you poll 100 guys, you'll get nearly a hundred different preferences, and you can't please everyone.

Still, I like seeing the girl's clothing...something she probably spent a long time shopping for and picking out just the right outfit...torn or cut to bits by her attacker, without any regard to saving it. It's just in the way of what he really wants, i.e., her tits or her pussy or any other body part he desires, so he simply tears it away and helps himself as though he has every right. And with her all tied up and helpless, she can't do anything to stop him anyway. Leaving them hanging off her body in tatters helps with the demoralizing image.

I especially like the idea of taking a girl's panties, the thin sheath of clothing that covers her most private area, and ripping them off and sticking them in her mouth as a gag! It's a classic, sure, but the reason it excites me every time is because it's especially demeaning to the victim. To use her smelly old panties and force her to taste them while they're taped over her mouth as a gag...it's just mean! And that's why I like it :)

By the way, another movie with an absolutely (for me) to die for scene is a Spanish flick called Tuno Negro. There isn't anything explicit and the scene is mostly consensual but it features a very hot Spanish lady tied to a bed while she gets her brains fucked out. Using just a bit of imagination I can picture this being non-con. Other than that I don't speak Spanish so I have no "real" idea what is going on in the film.

Ralphus - I have to agree with the whole panties in mouth thing. Especially when you see the woman has just come home from a hard days work at the office.../evil smirk/... I do hope that busy from Rick means busy on another movie rather than busy busting another pirating racket. /crossing fingers/ I definitely can't wait for his next masterpiece.

And Rick - another request if you read this. I'd love to see another movie featuring a scene while a woman is working out and then is bound to exercise equipment and just abused an raped. As I said before that is still one of my all time favorite ZFX scenes (from Evil Man). And when the showed a closeup of her squirming her ass while cum dripped down... Mmmmm...

The Stones picture indirectly reminded me of something I just read about recently. Apparently five guys were just arrested in England for conspiring to kidnap one of the Spice Girls. And although I could give a rat's ass about any one of the Spice Girls, it could make for a good ZFX plot. Five maniacs of like mind kidnap to use and abuse the object of their obsession...A hot ZFX cutie portraying a prissy prima donna actress...or a snooty female singer...or a hot tennis star.... or....

Later.

The pic adds fuel to the fantasy. Rick should find a Britney look-a-like and start filming. Or better yet, a least from my perspective, a Jennifer Love Hewitt look-a-like. And I know there is a nude model who looks a great deal like JLH. As a matter of fact I brought it up a long time ago when I accidentely stumbled upon some HOT pics of the look-a-like. Unfortunately I didn't save any of the pics and have not been able to find a site that has the pics I speak of since.

Anyone else familiar with what I'm talking about? Would love to get there again to save a few pics this time.

Later.
