I've joined TNAV in the past also because of the stills for Suzi Kidnapped. And I thought the stills they had were okay, not great, but okay. I really had no interest in videos at the time because they were typically grainy and awful and not worth loading in the days of dial up. It's disappointing that other than picture quality, their product really hasn't improved.

Emily is one of the hottest models I've seen in this genre. I would have joined again when her video came out except that there were no stills. Ironically I joined recently so I could get stills via FRAPS, but it doesn't seem to work on Realplayer. Can anyone help me out?

While I'm thinking about it there is a particular picture I'd like to get--it was on one of the yahoo groups that I deleted in a past fit of puritanism, and couldn't rejoin. Its two young women in the back of a carriage, dressed in probably 18th century clothes. One has a rather low cut dress and shows some very attractive cleavage. They are both gagged and bound. It looks like a vidcap. Does anyone have the pic and/or know what movie it's from?

Thanks, Jon

In fact, I recognized one of their movies that I had found online and watched a while back, called Cherry - Abducted, Tied & Tormented. I watched the whole thing hoping (in vain) that it would eventually be better than it was, because the girl was really cute and she did a good job playing the sweet, humiliated victim. But I wouldn't recommend it because the bondage was just so weak and they didn't go far enough. Pretty frustrating, really. And from reading your account of the 4 movies you saw, it sounds like their other offerings aren't any better.

Still, I'd welcome more reviews of their stuff. A pretty victim can make a difference and some of their movies look like they have promise. Anybody else seen their stuff?

Well, I know a lot of you have been looking forward to the expanded GIMP FICTION section, and we've finally added a new page for other authors besides Eda Chang. Since I put out the call for you to send in your stories, we've had more than I expected. There's 19 new stories in the new MORE GIMP FICTION section, check it out.

There's 11 from Master Wryter, an infrequent poster but a regular reader of the forum. Also, Jon Smithie sent me his new story, called Calf Roping and Cow Riding at the Long Branch Saloon. Haven't read it yet but it looks good.

The one story I did read was Lynn's The Golden Gift. Outstanding story; the best thing I've read in a long time. She's an excellent writer. If you're a fan of electrical torture like I am, you'll love this one.

If you've got some time, peruse our new section and if you like what you read, please post feedback to the forum. The authors don't get paid and this is the only way they can know what you thought of their efforts. I hope you enjoy the new page and feel free to contact me if you have any of your own stories to submit.

Whipping on TNAV is to whipping at, say, Paingate as a buss on your aunt's cheek is to a soulkiss with your super-babe, but there is a nice flogger, and the bondage in the more recent stuff is a bit better if basic, and they do have some gags. Yes there are some whiners there--especially a blonde who otherwise seems worthwhile, but there are enough good models to make a download membership worthwhile for a month. It's your basic light-whipping, clothes-pins and groping with the "villain" a sort of bozo who runs his own camera and does the "torture". He clearly doesn't know where the pause on the video camera is.

The ZFX classic Mincemeat Pie is one of my personal favorite ZFX movies, made back in the mid 1990's when Rick Masters was at his most prolific, often putting out a dozen titles a year. A lot of fans consider this period to be the Golden Age for ZFX, and with good reason, considering the high number of quality titles and the talented cast he assembled during that time period. And this movie is a good example of that.

This one features an all-star team of ZFX villains, in fact, arguably the 3 best ZFX villains ever...Bryan Dunhill, Jon O'Brien and of course, Rick himself. Throw in Chandra Sweet in her unique role as the sexy girlfriend of the bad guys who enjoys terrorizing innocent women just as much as they do, and you've already got a formula for success.

Then, of course, there are the victims. Say what you want about Penelope Pace's super-sized fake jugs, there's no denying she's one of ZFX's best actresses of all time, just a dynamite performer in whatever role she was cast in. And there's also an actress named Lisa Kinkaid who appears in this movie. Perhaps you've heard of her.

Unfortunately, the movie starts off on an unrealistic note, as one of the bad guys (O'Brien) is brought in to see the female detective, played by Lisa. He's chained and shackled, so Lisa decides to...get this... tease him by opening up her top and stripping down to her garter belt, attempting to get him to look at her, knowing he's helpless to attack her. Talk about throwing credibility out the window in the opening scene! She tries to get him to talk about his previous crime, which the bad guys had videotaped and is now being used as evidence against him.

Masters starts by roughly holding Penelope down and ripping off her skirt. She fights with him but she's clearly overpowered, and the rest of the men and Chandra just laugh and making leering comments about her while this is going on. At one point, Masters runs a line around his victim's neck to help subdue her. And he takes her skirt and gags her with it, tightening it along the side of her head.

"We're gonna have one hell of a party," Dunhill tells her. "We're gonna get it all on tape so you can watch it over and over and over again."

"That's if you live!" Masters chimes in, bringing a huge laugh from the attackers and making Penelope visibly wince.

It's that kind of interaction that is the real strength of this movie. The "rape party" atmosphere in this film is totally infectious. It's clearly ad-libbed, but it's by 4 very talented veterans of bondage films that know exactly the right things to say to give the film a sadistic and threatening edge.

"You know what's gonna happen to you, don't you?" Masters tells her. "We're gonna fuck your pussy, bitch. We're gonna fuck you in the ass, too."

"And in the mouth!" Dunhill interjects. "And in between those fine titties you've showed everybody all night!"

They spank Penelope's ass and force her to suck Chandra's nipples. Then the struggling girl has her wrists tied behind her with black tape. Chandra lays on the floor and spreads her own legs, and Penelope is forced to give her oral sex while the men continue to berate her while spanking her ass.

They hang Penelope up so that she's suspended horizontally by her wrists and ankles. At this point, she begins to wake up, and thrashes around as O'Brien licks her pussy. "You can struggle all you want now, darlin', you ain't goin' nowhere!" Dunhill tells her.

After the beating, O'Brien agrees to sign a confession. He asks to have the cuffs removed so he can sign the papers, and Lisa stupidly frees his hands. Uh oh! Once the cuffs are unlocked, he lunges at Lisa, grabbing her by the throat and then tightening her beaded necklace around her neck until she passes out.

My grade: A-

I'm not a Penelope Pace fan -- I accept the point about her acting but her big boobs (which grew over time) were always a distraction. That may be why this film didn't really stay on my radar. Nonetheless, it's great to have another ZFX title in the Reviews section.

To me, the only weakness in the movie was her stripping down for the prisoner and basically watching a bondage film with him while half-naked, which made no sense realistically, especially since she's playing a police detective. But still we're only talking about maybe 5 minutes of an hour-long film, so I can give that part of the film a pass, especially since she got her payback at the end. I'm a fan of chair ties anyway, plus you have clothespin torture, a great panties in the mouth gag, molested with a nightstick and left in a humiliating position for her co-workers to discover. The film would be worthwhile for the Lisa scene alone, IMO.

There's nothing lot a good ZFX vidcap...unless there's a lot of them. Thanks for posting those of Mincemeat Pie (and thanks to Hank too, of course)! Good review of the flick, too btw.

Of course you can always count on me to favor a good whipping scene, especially frontal ones, so always know you have a happy camper in me when you post such pics or art.

I like that you are expanding your story area beyond the one's Eda posted (I see she is not using her Asiangirl nick here). Eda writes fantastic stories and I know she resisted posting her stories for a long time until she found a home she felt comfortable with. Good to see she made a home here. I love that you now have works by Master Wryter and others and I look forward to more good GIMP related stories.

The homepage I list is a link list for all the groups owned and managed by Linda and I such as The Rack, The Whipping Post, Erotic Nightmares, Full Frontal Flogging and others. I would invite any and all GIMP readers to join us at our groups and post material there. Importantly, people should be sure to list their age, otherwise I am forced to delete their applications.

Lastly, on a more sober note, I reiterate your own thoughts of enjoying all of this as fantasy only. The real story on 60 Minutes today of the female reporter in Egypt who was sexually assaulted is appalling and truly frightening. We can never condone such acts of brutality.

On the other hand we DO love our fantasies don't we?

Best wishes!

I've downloaded a number of the ZFX videos from their site (which allows viewing scenes, downloading for a week or downloading to own--all at very reasonable prices (link above) but there are a BUNCH of them. So here's the question:

Remembering that I'm a guy who prefers natural breasts (though Penelope's at least are not of the concrete or bolt-on variety--they move nicely) and a natural bush...

What are the 10 best frontal whipping scenes in the ZFX/Shockwave oeuvre?

What are the 10 best electro-torture scenes ditto?

I've gone through a number of the reviews, but it is rare to find one as detailed as Ralphus' of Mincemeat Pie.

So, for great bodies, great selling by the actress, nudity, nasty villain, duration and camera work, anyone car to help me produce my purchase list?

Since I know how much I enjoy feedback from those who read my stories, I think it only fair that I provide some myself for another's. Ralphus recommended Lynn's THE GOLDEN GIFT so highly that I decided to read it first.

I also very much enjoyed it. It is well written and, most importantly for me, it takes the time to develop its plot and characters. That's not to say that there isn't a lot of GIMP, since there is and it is well-done, but the GIMP is used only as part of the story and not as the whole story. It is also obvious that the setting for the story (casino security) is one with which Lynn is quite familiar (or has done a lot of research, but I'll bet the former). And, dear to my heart, everything may not be exactly what it seems, so the reader cannot take anything for granted.

That's not to say that there aren't a few things -- two, actually -- about the story that left me a little frustrated, but I recognize that these are just my personal preferences that many of you may not share. For one, I would have liked the GIMP to be a bit more varied and severe. The other I can't reveal without giving away too much about the plot, which wouldn't be fair to the author.

Selfishly, I hope that the presence of our newly-posted authors will also lead some of you who haven't yet sampled my own stories to do so. So, again, welcome, authors. It's very nice to have you here !!

To me, the only weakness in the movie was her stripping down for the prisoner and basically watching a bondage film with him while half-naked, which made no sense realistically, especially since she's playing a police detective. But still we're only talking about maybe 5 minutes of an hour-long film, so I can give that part of the film a pass, especially since she got her payback at the end. I'm a fan of chair ties anyway, plus you have clothespin torture, a great panties in the mouth gag, molested with a nightstick and left in a humiliating position for her co-workers to discover. The film would be worthwhile for the Lisa scene alone, IMO.

It's tough for me to offer a strong defence of my position, because I really don't have a good recollection of Mincemeat Pie.

I know I've seen it but for whatever reason I don't recall being impressed with it. However, in the interests of science, I may rent it again and see if it's possible I missed something. I'll skip the Penelope parts and concentrate on Lisa's scene.

Also, one quick comment on the Guilty movies. While those are also starring vehicles for Penelope, I thought Lisa looked her absolute hottest in Guilty 2. In my view, the outfit she was wearing in that movie was the sexiest of any of her ZFX outfits. Although I don't own it, I definitely remember Guilty 2.

Enjoy.

Ralphus: That was quite an exceptional review of Mincemeat Pie. Alas, it was not one of my favorites, although it certainly had a lot going for it. It lost me with the strip tease police interrogation scene. I don't expect true-to-life realism in ZFX productions, but that was just ridiculous and I didn't really get into it from then on, meaning it lost me from the start.

Your review was excellent, though, and your choice of illustration images was inspired. Maybe I will check out the new, remastered DVD version. Maybe.

* * * * *

Deathtrap: Wow. I really like the naked-spread-eagle-on-the-table-saw picture at the very bottom of your blog page. I am a sucker for naked spread-eagle situations and that one was exquisite. Thanks!

I second Eda Chang's comments about Lynn's story "The Golden Gift" I too enjoyed the writing and the plot developments, but would have liked to see more varied and severe torture. My own personal favorite was the James Smith Journal of Indian captivity. I've read the actual account, and was impressed with how well the author of the "extended version" stayed in character while describing in depth the tortures inflicted by the Indians. I really like the feeling of historical accuracy in this story and in the Delaware whipping story. I remember reading that years ago, and it impressed me then. I believe it was on the WSIMD website in the story section. I hope to see more stories from that collection. It's great to see this one again.

I thought the King Diocletian story of "The Scapegoat" was at its best when describing the scourging and crucifixion of the heroine, because that had the ring of historical truth, but kind of a historical mixed bag otherwise. The story takes place in ancient Roman times, but there were too many details and names that lacked verisimilitude. I mean the "Sheriff," the "town council" "Katerina/Kate?" Details like that took me out of the reality of the story, but the description of the scourging and the crucifixion were among the best I've read.

Thanks to Master Wryter for the bondage/torture vignettes. They include some of my own favorite scenarios. I'd love to read a fully developed story.

Just thought I'd share my thoughts on the stories I've read so far. I hope other writers out there will post their GIMP stories and readers "pay" them by providing feedback.

Thanks, Jon

What are the 10 best frontal whipping scenes in the ZFX/Shockwave oeuvre?

What are the 10 best electro-torture scenes ditto?

Geez, you want 10 of each? That's kind of challenging even for the most expert of ZFX fans. With 150+ titles, that's tough trying to pin down a 10 best. There are so many good ones. I'll let someone else do the whipping list. I'll do electro-torture, since that's one my favorites.

Here's my Top 9 (I don't want to do 10 because I know I'll be leaving out a favorite if I do):

Kimberly Noble in 666

Lisa Kinkaid in Ballista 2

Alison Parish in Future Shock

Monica Moore in Gangstarr: The Reporter Part 2

Amber Bliss in Goon Squad

Christina Anderson in South of the Border 3

Lisa Kinkaid in South of the Border 4

Elaine Payton in South of the Border 6

Lisa Kinkaid in Whiplash 4

You can't go wrong with any of these. They all meet my Ralphus Seal of Approval. Hee hee, shock those bitches!

At one point I had about two dozen ZFX tapes in my collection, which given my own fantasy preferences is a testament to how much I enjoyed some of the material therein. Invariably, at some point in every ZFX film, I would cringe and wonder how something which was so good in other ways could suddenly fail me. ZFX productions were usually relentlessly savage (at the time) but in most cases concluded with happy or ambiguous endings in which the victims escaped or got the better of their captors. The action seemed to be hardcore, but on close inspection, it usually wasn't. Some of the actresses were stunning... others, not so much. Realistic peril scenes were interspersed with silly BDSM tropes found in standard spank-and-tickle vids. In the end, I learned to enjoy the good and ignore the bad and the ugly. But I always dreamed of the day when a ZFX production which hit all my sweet spots would be released. I'm still waiting.

The Mincemeat Pie review brings back all my memories of those ZFX tapes of yore. A quick glance at the stills makes me want to download this video on the spot, but then those nagging negatives pop their heads up like whack-a-moles. A female police officer has a perp in custody, but strips to tease him and then takes off his cuffs (I'll buy that for a dollar). Harsh whipping and rape scenes are followed by "torture" involving spanking, clothespins and nipple sucking (Ow... that smarts!). And the explosive-under-chair cliff hanger undoubtedly leads to the sequel in which the heroine escapes to live through another adventure (Were any of these ZFX villains smart enough to permanently dispose of their victims?).

All that said, I may well buy Mincemeat Pie, though it's about sixth in the cue of other ZFX flicks I would like to get online. I do adore Lisa, and unlike most folks, I rather like Penelope's artificial rack. Actually, it's her bug-eyed stare that creeps me out.

Stories: Let me add my thanks to those who have already congratulated Ralphus and Scribbler for expanding the story section. I have not had time to read any work by the new contributors, but hope to do so soon. As my pal Eda pointed out about two-hundred posts ago, I have written a sequel to one of her tales. I won't get into how this came about, but for those who want to see what happens when one writer appropriates another's plot and characters, you can find a singular Fritz account among all the estrogen fuelled GIMP in the Eda section.

I've been told feedback for GIMP fiction is scarcer than garlic at a vampire jamboree, and that people who read fetish stories can be counted on the fingers of, um... two hands. As most writers likely write first and foremost for their own amusement, that shouldn't matter. But as there is some quite excellent material being made available to the community completely free of charge, I am more than a little curious to know how many folks actually take advantage of it. Aside from the half dozen who have mentioned the story section, are any of you reading this stuff? Why or why not? Can GIMP fiction ever compare to GIMP video? Lots of people go on about how they thought "the book was better than the movie" when it comes to mainstream entertainment. In our community, hardly anyone mentions anything other than videos and the occasional still image. Could this be explored in a GIMP poll perhaps?

Posted some pics asking if anyone knew the source of caps over at totally-shocking (thread link above). With the wealth of knowledge here ... surely someone knows where it came from. This was from a very short clip someone posted to youtied.com a while back.

One thing the review doesn't address is what this video has got to do with pie, mincemeat or otherwise. Please do tell.

Ha! You got me. I've wondered about the significance of the title myself. I just assumed that mincemeat pie was a Southern dessert and since the villains were all Southern rednecks that it was some kind of reference. Maybe Rick will clear up that mystery.

ZFX productions were usually relentlessly savage (at the time) but in most cases concluded with happy or ambiguous endings in which the victims escaped or got the better of their captors.

Well, I hate happy endings, at least in bondage films. I prefer ambiguous ones or endings that imply that the torment for the victims will continue on indefinitely. That said, it never bothers me when villains meet their just desserts at the end of ZFX movies because the movie is over. As long as the previous hour entertained me, I don't mind if Rick wants to throw in a revenge scene or humorous coda at the very end. He usually doesn't spend a lot of screen time on them.

The action seemed to be hardcore, but on close inspection, it usually wasn't.

Right, and while some complain that they want ZFX to do hardcore, trust me, his decision to simulate penetration is probably the reason he's not in jail. If he did hardcore scenes, with the nonconsensual themes of his pictures, he would have a huge target on his back. These are dangerous times to be a porn filmmaker, or at least the previous 8 years under Bush certainly were. Rick is smart in that he covers his ass where one can see his films are cleverly made simulations only. Gotta do that to survive as long as he has.

Some of the actresses were stunning... others, not so much.

I would say most of his actresses are quite attractive. The majority have girl-next-door qualities that appeal to me. His casting is one of his best attributes as a filmmaker, IMO.

A quick glance at the stills makes me want to download this video on the spot, but then those nagging negatives pop their heads up like whack-a-moles. A female police officer has a perp in custody, but strips to tease him and then takes off his cuffs (I'll buy that for a dollar).

I think we're all in agreement here that the strip scene was a mistake. John Galt said it basically ruined the rest of the movie for him. I thought it was a terrible call, and it lowered the letter grade for me from an A to an A-. The taking off the cuffs part is a cliche, but this certainly isn't the first time I've seen it on film.

Harsh whipping and rape scenes are followed by "torture" involving spanking, clothespins and nipple sucking (Ow... that smarts!).

Some of us like clothespin torture. We've been through this before. Spanking and nipple sucking is fine. If you got her tied up, hurt her a little and suck on those bare titties. I would do it. Not every film can have the literal disemboweling that you requested in one of your customs :)

And the explosive-under-chair cliff hanger undoubtedly leads to the sequel in which the heroine escapes to live through another adventure (Were any of these ZFX villains smart enough to permanently dispose of their victims?).

I'll give away the ending of the sequel just for you. The bomb goes off while Lisa is still tied to the chair. No more Lisa. That's my idea of a happy ending :) It's implied, though. I wouldn't mind seeing death scenes in a ZFX movie, and it's been mildly implied or left ambiguous a few times, but Rick doesn't go that far, and probably for the same reason he doesn't do hardcore. Or maybe he's just not into that fantasy. I think he would probably turn off a number of his fans if he did.

I often wonder if people even read our reviews. Most people say nothing, so if you took the time to write a review and almost no one responds, you're left wondering if it was even worth it. I know I've felt that way personally. One of my best online friends tells me he checks out the site nearly every day, but it's usually just to see the daily pic. I doubt he even noticed that I wrote a review, so I totally expect he didn't read it. And this is one of my best friends.

Anyway, getting back to the Stories section. Let's see if we can get some response.

GIMP POLL:
Have you read anything on the GIMP FICTION stories section, either the original "Stories By Eda Chang" page or the new "More GIMP Fiction" page featuring other authors? If not, why not? Is it worth it to you to have new stories added, or could you take or leave having stories on the site?

Guys, please don't be apathetic about responding to the poll. This site belongs to you, take a minute or two and give us your opinion. There's no wrong answer other than not answering at all. It's really important to me especially, because I've spent a lot of time making this new section for you and want to see if it's worth continuing. If it's not, let me know, because I don't have a lot of spare time to spend if only a handful of you even care about it.

Thanks Jon Smithie for the comments. I did worry about the historical accuracy but then decided that as it's fantasy, a vague late Roman England would suffice. I was more concerned by Katerina's plight than the detail. Probably I should do more research for future stories.

I don't go looking for fiction online and I don't specifically come to the GIMP site seeking GIMP fiction. I'm here for the news about and reviews of GIMP movies.

Having said that, I have read some of Eda's stories and I think they're great. I love her attention to detail and the way her plots unfold. I think it was a smart decision to profile the stories on the site as they make an important contribution to the site.

Ideally, I would like to see Eda's stories published in a book. If such a book was published, I would buy it and I would read all of the stories in it.

Until then, I say keep the GIMP Fiction section. As for any future efforts to build the section, I will defer to those who are more into online fiction.

(In my own way, I have once again provided many words that I suspect are of little help to Ralphus. Ah, well...).

I hope to get to read works by other authors soon.

-------

Dammit, I hate when real life interferes with the pursuit of fantasy.

-------

Actually, I found a way to get my GIMP and exercise, too. I keep some small weights next to the computer and work out with them while I'm reading stuff off the internet. Imagine, a geezer like me who can actually multi-task.

So keep writing those stories, folks. I'll keep reading and pumping iron.

-------

Yeah, that's right I'm an oldie...old enough to remember when Elly May would hogtie her "gentleman callers" if'n they got too...ungentlemanly. Now if it had been the other way around, I might have watched the show more often. Surprised they haven't made an Elly May life-size blow-up doll. Oh...you say they have?

A very belated shout out to our foot-stamping host Ralphus for the colorful review of Mincemeat Pie. And here I thought that every ZFX movie had already been reviewed. Will this site ever run out of things to do? ;)

First off, thanks to Ralphus for the really great review and to Hank for the cap work. Nice job guys!

Mincemeat Pie was somewhat inspired by Natural Born Killers. I was definitely going for that impromptu cinema verite feel. The movie was more ad libed than most ZFX, I think I had an outline of things that need to be established to form a semblance of plot and various bondage scenes, but little dialog other than the beginning. One thing I would differ with Ralphus on is about the nightstick booby trap, or perhaps pussy trap is more accurate. Anyway, she does know the nightstick is attached to a bomb trigger, that's why she is trying so hard not let it slip out and thus jamming it in her harder.

As far as the name, it is a reference to the dish and the saying "I'll make mincemeat out of you!" popularized by the cartoon character Klondike Kat. I may also have pulled some inspiration from a song called Sweet Thistle Pie by a band called Cracker that was popular back in the year. And yes, Pie is also reference to Penelope's vag.

As far as the cast, Penelope Pace is definitely one of my favorite performers. She never phoned in a performance. The first time I met her, I was just pretty much dumbfounded...if I could make a woman's face, mold it how I wanted, it would probably look a lot like hers. She has my perfect victim face. Dimpled chin, snooty nose, expressive eyes (creepy bug eyes to Fritz:P) and great teeth...yes people TEETH...they are important! She also always had a nicely trimmed bush. Of course she has a great body as well. By the time we shot Mincemeat Pie she had done quite a few movies for me.

Usually I'm trying to get actresses to emote more and fight harder, but that was never a problem with Penelope. She fought so hard in Mincemeat Pie , I think I actually asked her to tone it down a bit, concerned about safety and/or shit breaking. She always gave 150% and I don't think there is a woman that makes sounds more sexy than Penelope when she is suffering. She is also amazingly flexible and very strong. She could do suspension positions very easily, being that she was pretty small and light except for her jugs. I think she did a fabulous job on this show, as did the whole cast. Mincemeat Pie is a very hard edged show. It's very physical and rough. This ain't no slap and tickle folks, trust me.

Lisa and Jon's station house scene was shot in a separate sequence and was much more scripted and to be used as a plot and editing device primarily, but also some action. I agree the realism factor was stretched a bit by Lisa's striptease, but imagine through the filter of Natural Born Killers, her as a Det. Jack Scagnetti like character, a horny, corrupt and violent cop. Plus it was a way to show off her sexy bod. It was over the top to be sure, but that's the overarching theme of the series. Mincemeat Pie Part 2: Doer might even out do part one in that regard. When your sticking lit halogen bulbs up asses, and feeding girls with enema bags full of cum, you are over the top. Here's a few shots from it.

Petelobo: Not sure if I should be doing the recommends on this, but here goes.

You might want to check out Bittersweet Persuasion , its got good whipping and electro scenes. Also Underland 2: Cruel Dominion has a solid electro scene..

Most movies I've done have both whipping and electro so there is a lot of choices. I'll leave it to someone else to fill in more.

A Canadian: I'm going to take a wild guess and think that the outfit you refer to on Lisa was in Guilty not Guilty 2. The green dress? Maybe I'm wrong but the green one was the more slinky number.

Fritz: Thanks for the comments. More and more scenes are available ala cart on the ZFX Clip Store. You can check out scenes and previews and get the parts you want, without the parts you don't. Of course you can watch any part of any movie on ZFXVOD.COM as well.

Ralphus, thanks for your top nine electro scenes, but I imagine the one you were thinking of including was the SOB 4 scene with Kelly McKay, which is, in my opinion, the greatest electro scene ever filmed - the sublime combination of acting (on the victim's part) and brutality and meanness (on the villain's part). I will never get tired of those images, and I always stand in awe of Rick and Kelly's ability to create such a work of art!

Very kind of you to say that. Kelly McKay is an amazing performer and beauty and that was a great scene. Travis Lee served up the shocks. He reads here from time to time am sure he'd be dam glad to see that.

POLL: Have you read anything on the GIMP FICTION stories section..

Honestly I haven't, but I do like a good story, I just don't have much time and I'm a bit of a troglodyte...

Ok, thats it for now. Thanks again to Ralphus for the great review and promo. I got a little carried away with the captures, hopefully its not taking up too much real estate.

A Canadian: I'm going to take a wild guess and think that the outfit you refer to on Lisa was in Guilty not Guilty 2. The green dress? Maybe I'm wrong but the green one was the more slinky number.

Nope, it was the outfit in Guilty 2 that I really liked. I think it gave Lisa that super-sexy office lady look or something (Yeah, I know, she was supposed to be a reporter. But I'm only commenting on the wardrobe).

I should add, of course, that I certainly didn't object to Lisa's outfit in the first Guilty movie. But it was her appearance in the second one that seemed even better than usual.

I've read several of Eda's stories. They are very well written, but I always feel a little sad after I read them. It seems like such a waste to kill a pretty young girl when you could keep her tied up and abused for months or years.

And I could tell the dialogue in your film was ad-libbed; that was the best part about it, because it had a spontaneous feel to it that made it feel more like it was really happening on the spot. That definitely gave it a realistic edge that I really liked. Like I mentioned in my review, all the actors had been in bondage films before and knew exactly the right things to say.

Now that you explain that Lisa knew about the bomb under the seat attached to the nightstick, that makes her dilemma all the more perilous, knowing she had to keep in inside her or the bomb would go off. Very cool concept.

BTW, speaking of titles, I noticed you changed the title of one of your movies for DVD. Back when it was on VHS, the name on the box was Vacum (intentionally misspelled to be a play on words...Va-CUM, get it?) but now that the movie is on DVD, it's been changed to Vacuum, spelled properly. I recall you mentioning the problems you had with the title when it came out on tape, saying that the print shop spell-checked the tape labels and changed it to "Vacuum", thinking they were helping you. So is this just a case of saying, "Ah, the hell with it"?

Here's the difference between the VHS and DVD versions.

Covers wrote that, while he enjoyed my stories, he did not like the fact that so many of them ended with death. While I won't here go into my explanation for why this is often the case in my stories, I would direct Covers and others who agree with him to my stories UNEXPECTED CAPTURE and CHOICE ALTERNATIVES (the first of the series), as well as my short story THE DEMAND.

As always, I look forward to feedback, positive or negative, from anyone who cares to share it with me, either posted in the forum or sent to me in private. I take all criticism constructively, as I recognize that, just as I don't like everything that I see or read, you may not like what I write or how I write it, and there's certainly no hard feelings if you don't.

Best wishes to all and thanks, as always, to Ralphus.

Like Covers, I don't look forward to the termination of the unlucky babe. My reason--which may be different from his--seems to relate to the inherent intimacy of written stories in general. Your work is characterized by attention to little details and revelations of what is going on in the victims' minds. In a way, we get to know the victim better than we would in a short GIMP scene, hence the feeling of investment--and subsequent loss--may be greater. That's my theory anyway.

Let's say, for example, Lisa Kinkaid's character gets killed in a movie. In the back of our minds, we know we'll get to see her do another character in another movie.

On the other hand, if a character in one of your stories gets killed, she's gone forever (unless you start writing prequels to resurrect them, like Hollywood does. ;)

Which is not to suggest that you shouldn't keep doing what you're doing. But those of us who don't favor the "snuff shot" at the end of a movie will have to shift gears a little to appreciate your stories.

And I think we will.

Rick, thank you for the correction - I'd hate to have written the great Travis Lee out of history. I think I was merging it in my mind with another scene (and my video copy is not within reach at the moment). Either way, SOB 4 was a hell of a great movie.

At the end of the movie, he has her tied to a chair and is electrocuting her. He goes too far and realizes he's killing her, but he can't stop himself. Her heart stops and she has an out of body experience where she's standing outside watching it happen. After he's done and she's dead, he unties the body and goes to move her, but he realizes it's his last chance while the body's still warm, lays her on her back, and starts going to town on her, not realizing she's still full of electricity, and he starts to get shocked, which shocks her heart back into beating and brings her back to life. He tries to get off but she instinctively holds on, all the electricity in her flows through him, killing him.

What I liked about that was that, through the use of outlandishly bad science, I was able to add a complete snuff scene, a necro scene, AND a resurrection and revenge and scene.

In general, I'm against snuff scenes. I don't think they're a good place to take your mind. It's why I don't like WAVE movies and a lot of the niche clips sites, because they're focus is on the killing and not the sex or bondage.

Thanks to Ralphus, DHT and especially Rick for the suggestions on ZFX titles that would light my fire. Ralphus, I had Ballista2 a number of years ago and downloaded it again. There are more whipping/electro scenes per square minute than in most anything else I've seen--and Lisa is killer in that one. DHT, on your recommendation I did download Guilty and enjoyed it. I haven't done Guilty 2 yet because it appears the whipping is done with breasts bound. Being a very visual guy, I know it probably hurts more, but I like to see the breasts dancing. I also downloaded Vacuum and enjoyed especially Lisa's whipping scene, though I was a bit bummed out that so much of the last half of that one was Lisa rolling around on the floor in a hogtie while, from the screaming in the background, something much more interesting was happening to the other character off-screen.

Thanks to all.

Thanks to Badger and Petelobo for their observations. With regard to Petelobo's comment that the stories of mine that he read were not from the villain's point of you, I plead largely (but not entirely) guilty. Many more of my stories are told more from the victim's point of view, I think, because I usually find the mental process of the victim undergoing interrogation more interesting. Some of the stories are told from a neutral point of view, though, and, in some, perhaps the victim is the one who is the real villain and the interrogator who is the hero. [But in many there are no heroes.]

Petelobo, two stories that perhaps you might try are REBEL CELL and THE FORTRESS, which are told, respectively, entirely and largely from the villain's point of view. Also, my short stories are generally told from a neutral point of view (since they're too short to allow much more than that).

If anyone who is interested in reading my stories wants to contact me first to tell me the particular kind of story or viewpoint or torture devices or set-up or kinks in which he is interested, I will be happy to direct him to the stories of mine that best fit such interest, or admit that I don't have one.

Thanks to everyone who posts in this forum.

As an occasional fiction writer myself, I'm glad to see that quite a few posters (and probably many more non-posters) have taken the time to read some of the stories, even if they didn't find what they were after. My own fantasies run very close to Eda's, so I enjoy her work immensely - but as she herself says, her stories are not for everyone. Now that the section has expanded, it may be worth pointing out to YikYakker, Covers and others who prefer to see the victims survive their ordeals that some recent contributions provide less lethal plotlines. Also, for Badger and those who don't care for detailed plots and elaborate settings, some of the new stuff, as well as Eda's shorter pieces may be of interest.

To respond to the poll question myself, obviously I enjoy reading GIMP tales a great deal. If they are well written, I find them more stimulating than videos because they can depict scenes which fetish producers could never afford to film and mainstream producers wouldn't dare touch. In essence, there are no limits to what can be depicted in fiction. A few sentences are enough to establish a story set in ancient Rome or in the distant future, and a few more can portray GIMP scenes so fiendish or outrageous you would never see them on screen.

Of course, if your idea of great GIMP action is ten minutes of an anonymous, naked woman, strung up and flogged in a dark room for no apparent reason, then I can understand why stories would fall short of fetish clips. As someone who believes context, character and atmosphere enrich the peril scenes, I find fiction can do so better than any other medium (at least until GIMPers perfect CGI).

I recently finished reading King Diocletian's epic crux tale, The Scapegoat, and was just blown away. The detailed description, the well-defined characters, and the relentless GIMP action were outstanding. Even the best of Red Feline's productions (and RF comes closer than anyone at realizing this genre on film) can't match the texture and imagery conjured by Diocletian's writing. There are no failed effects sequences, no questionable acting, no credibility issues because of budgetary constraints - just an exceptional fantasy narrative which more than satisfied my warped imagination. And nothing can stir the imagination quite as well as a good story.

The first half of part 1 didn't do much for me. Back when these videos were made, the NBK vibe was still pretty shocking, but we've all watched dozens of clones since then, so the abuse and taunting of Penelope seems almost quaint. And the less said about Lisa teasing Jon the better. However, once Penelope is bound and whipped, things picked up considerably. Never has she looked better, and her acting is first rate throughout. The bug-eyed-stare is not nearly as apparent here as it was in the Guilty vids, so maybe it's only an issue when she's a brunette.

Putting Lisa in a dildo deathtrap at the end of part 1 was evil, but leaving her there throughout the sequel was downright diabolical. Watching her fight desperately to keep that giant dong inside her for a full hour while she watches Penelope and (later) Chandra go through their paces was enthralling. The fact that she ultimately loses her struggle is icing on the cake, a rare casualty among the ZFX victims. Too bad Penelope escapes, but to be honest, after what she was put through, I guess she earned her freedom.

Though part 1 was enjoyable, I found the sequel really pushed the boundaries, and so for me it was the better video. That said, they work best as a single two hour feature with the torture and depravity building gradually until the explosive climax. I can even overlook the damn clothespins. My only quibble is the dim lighting often leaves the action and the actress's faces in shadow. I realize the dark, grainy look likely was deliberate, but when you have stars this beautiful and ordeals this intense, I'll forego the gritty ambience in favour of a clearer image.

Watching the Mincemeat Pie films has inspired me to explore all the other ZFX titles I've not yet seen, and maybe get downloads of some favorites in my VHS collection. Although Mincemeat Pie looks like a direct transfer (and probably somewhat degraded as a result), I notice other pre-digital titles (like Whiplash 4) look better than they did on tape. Were these re-mastered? If so, how can we tell which ones have been upgraded?

Could you please help me to identify the mystery movies again? now I want to know the most is picture A&D(it should be the same movie), O, and Q, please help me to identify them, thank you very much again!

What has happened to Lisa Kinkaid? Was always a fan.

Retired. Or at least, she's no longer shooting with Rick anymore. I don't think she ever filmed with anyone else, so she's essentially out of the biz as far as I can tell. Her last film was Goon Squad 2.

Anyone else tired of seeing them posting day after day? Do you think Nick's posts have merit, or do you consider them spam? He does link to video clips from time to time, although none of what I see interests me. I wrote Nick a while back saying I wouldn't mind the constant advertising if he would make an attempt to add to the discussions, but he didn't reply and so far, nothing has changed.

It's your board, guys. I just moderate it. Do you like Nick's posts? Let me know.

Fritz: So you like Mincemeat Pie:Doer more than the original? I plan to review it (someday) but if you wanna give it a shot, go for it. It would be good timing since we're in the midst of a ZFX promotion right now anyway. I had a few problems with the sequel but overall it's a nice companion piece to the original Mincemeat Pie. A lot of the ZFX sequels are more torture-packed than the first movie, mainly because Rick uses the first half to set up the story and the follow-ups are more or less wall-to-wall action.

I could let Rick answer the question about which titles are remastered, but to my knowledge, ALL of them were. Some time ago, Rick took 2 or 3 years off (might have even been longer) to remaster his entire inventory for DVD. I don't think any of them were direct transfers; he took some time and at least in some cases, re-edited the entire movie from the original master tapes. I know he did that with Squealer for sure, but I think it was with all his works. It would have been a lot easier to just make a copy of the tape but he took care to make sure they looked the best they could.

Some free previews (like a few other posters here provide) that I don't have to jump through hoops to access might change my mind about that...or a post that is more of a discussion about a current topic that I may want to read.

Which is all a roundabout way of admitting that I have not read any of the GIMP fiction--not because I doubt its quality, but rather because it is not my preferred method.

To be honest, I did not ever buy all that many adult-oriented books or paperbacks, either. Although I did have quite the collection of comics such as Sweet Gwendoline, Barbarella, Phoebe Zeit-Geist, and a number of Wally Wood comics. I guess I just prefer my erotica to be illustrated or audio-visual in nature.

However, I like the idea of having a GIMP fiction section on the forum, because it makes the site more accessible to a wider variety of members. I think it makes for a more robust GIMP experience. Doubly so, since it has resulted in additional members publishing their own fiction. I don't have to personally like every single aspect of the forum to appreciate its comprehensive nature.

* * * * *

Likewise, the Mad Ludwig posts don't bother me. I enjoy updates from producers, from the twin aspects of not only keeping me up-to-date on the latest products, but also for the participation of producers in the forum. I'm with YikYakker: once I discovered I had to register to view the clips, I also began skipping over them. But they don't bother me because they have an informational quality to them. I would feel completely different if they were just one-liners saying, basically, "look at this!"

I'm very glad someone starts to notice the problem that the women never shave their armpit hair in ancient times, I saw many country's ancient movies, but they almost shaved their armpit hair, it makes me feel like an "Artificial girl". So I totally strongly approve of keeping armpit hair. Just do it! Jane and other girls

Best wish

Simon

I am actually a fan of the shaved and smooth, be it pubic, armpit, leg or upper lip. I'm not a big fan of the unibrow look either, come to think of it. I don't see it as "artificial" so much as "well-maintained." And while I recognize your predilection to see armpit hair as a valid life goal, I would prefer to see your desire unfulfilled in the movies we have in common. Nothing personal, of course.

I noticed that Moviebound hasn't been updated since March 29th.

Any word about that site?

Just wondering. She was always updating the site.

So yesterday I'm at a family gathering and one of the attendees (who is *ahem* even older than I am) is channel-surfing with the remote. He lands on a channel called this (sic) and on comes Last House on the Left (the original). Realizing that he had no familiarity with this movie, I suggested that it was not suitable for family entertainment, so we put something else on (even though personally I would have been glad to watch it).

But my questions are: what is this and how are they able to get away with showing something like LHOTL on a Sunday afternoon? I'm not complaining, you understand - just curious. The house I was visiting did not have cable; rather, it has some kind of antenna (not satellite) that picks up a limited number of channels. Strange. Anyone have an explanation?

As to the question "Have I read the stories?" I have scanned some but I don't like to read on the computer.

Baron von Folter

But I don't see anything on the schedule that remotely resembles Last House on the Left.

I want to take the time to chime in on the current GIMP Poll. Although I love reading GIMP fiction, I've had no interest in doing much reading of any kind for quite a while. I've been wanting to checkout some of Eda Chang's work, but have had too little free time lately. Ironically , I've been spending most of my free time doing quite a bit of writing of my own. I've got a Non-GIMP novel I began writing back in the late 90s. I worked on it non-stop until about 2002 when I was forced to take an extended break from it do to mental illness.

About a year ago I got to a point where I had recoverd from mental illness enough to resume work on my novel. I began working on it again, a little at a time around June of last year. For the last year or so I worked on it only once in a while. Things were going slow, taking three months to write four pages of text. That was until last Thursday when my imagination went berserk! I have been writing almost non-stop for the last four or five days. I've written almost fifteen pages worth of text in last five days alone.

===========================================

Mad Ludwig: His posts may be hurting his sales, but that's his problem. The posts are easy to skip and aren't hurting anything, so I don't see a problem with the status quo

===========================================

John Galt: Poll Question: I actually read quite a bit in, you know, Real Life. However, I do not enjoy reading as much when it is digital. I had high hopes when I got my Kindle but there's just something about holding a book that I miss when I am reading for pleasure.

I thought I might have this problem, but I **LOVE** my Kindle. I'm finding and reading all sorts of stuff that would be hard to find (and possibly expensive) to find in a Real Book. Right now, I'm reading a history of Samoa in the 1890's by Robert Lewis Stevenson and a huge compilation of celebrated "criminals" (from the Borgias to Mary Queen of Scots to some guy who assassinated a German official in 1887) by Alexandre Dumas. Great fun, and LOTS of free books (my favorite kind!).

re DailyMotion: Yes, you have to register, but it is completely spam-free and they have movies that would NEVER be allowed on YouTube. Some of the playlists are quite hot!

===========================================

Yik Yakker: But I don't see anything on the schedule that remotely resembles Last House on the Left.

I see The Omen and a couple of other horror movies on the schedule, plus, on Sunday, they have Elvira's show -- which includes "Manos, Hands of Fate" among others. If they can show that, LHOTL is nothin'!

Dangerous Dave: Can you give us a few titles of movies with Allison Parish? I'd like to check her out.

-------

DHT: That $9.95 sounds more like a "non-refundable registration fee" - but of course they would never call it that.

-------

jhlipton: Hmmm...Manos: The Hands of Fate sure looks like a winner. ;)

As far as Rick's stuff, Allison Parrish was it pre Lisa Kinkaid for me. In some ways I like Allison better than Lisa. I know them's fightin' words in these parts. But Allison was damn hot. Rick I would love to hear some Allison stories too. I just wish she would have been featured in more movies.

Belly of the Beast
Dance Macabre
Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap
Future Shock
Guinea Pigs 2
Highway to Hell
Mean Streak
Night Prowler
Pretty Tied Up
Tiffany Twisted
Extractor
Erotic Bondage Confessions
Spread Eagle

I think I've seen most of these, but I've since lost my old compilation tapes. I remember liking "Night Prowler" and "Pretty Tied Up" the best, I think.

I think that Allison Parish was the MVP of all of the early ZFX movies that she was in. She carried the torch until Lisa came along. Anyone agree with me on that?

I think in many ways, you're right. As an old-schooler ZFX fan, she was never my favorite actress of the early ZFX titles (that honor would go to Sierra Stuart), but she was attractive and a damn fine actress. Especially when it came to playing a victim, which is the role Rick cast her in the most, and she was in a lot of his early movies. She was originally in Squealer, too, but Rick took out her footage when he re-edited the film for DVD. The thing about her is she gave it her all every single time. She had an S/M tattoo on her ankle so she was clearly into the scene.

Besides the movies you recommended, I think a few must-see Alison titles would be Future Shock, Highway to Hell and Guinea Pigs II. Future Shock is just a great movie, period, one of my favorite ZFX movies, plus it also contains one of my "Top 9" best electroshock scenes, which I listed on this forum earlier.

She was originally in Squealer, too, but Rick took out her footage when he re-edited the film for DVD.

Man, that brings back some bad memories.

When Squealer was released on DVD, I wrote a review for the forum. The review was generally well received but one poster wanted to know why I had omitted the Alison Parish scene.

I went white when I read that.

I had watched the film carefully, and I try to pay attention to the details -- but I honestly couldn't remember seeing Alison anywhere in the movie. I couldn't even think of a possible scene where I might have missed her, such as in the background or something.

Fortunately, it was soon confirmed that her scene had been cut from the DVD (and instead placed in another DVD release where Rick thought it made more sense).

Where can that scene be found in the new DVD movies?

First off I'd just like to say thanks to everyone who commented and to Ralphus for running this pictorial. Also to Hank Hobbs for the great caps. Its definitely been a blast from the past. Just addressing a few comments:

Sierra Stuart was a very hot performer back in the year. She had a very pretty face, not as tight a body as some, but shapely and good tits for tying. A very sexy moaner. She did some rough scenes for me, she was not afraid to push her own limits. She was a very strong struggler, a super good actress. She was one of the first gals I ever shot. These are from Binding Contract...

Fritz wrote:

ZFX: Thanks Rick for providing more info on your productions. After seeing those stills from Mincemeat Pie Part 2, and after Ralphus was kind enough to give away the ending, I bought both parts, despite my misgivings regarding the title (I suppose the term mincemeat is used figuratively, except maybe for Lisa). So $50 and two hours later, here's my verdict...

Thanks for giving Mincemeat Pie 1 and 2 a whirl. I certainly appreciate the business! I would say virtually all DVD's were re mastered if they came out on analog format (VHS) first. Later movies were shot and mastered from the get go on DVD, pretty much from about 2000 on. There might be a few exceptions, but not many. There are a lot of variables and sometimes one movie just looks better than another, even if they are both are mastered.

Alison Parish: Well she was just amazing, she had a very tight and shapely body. A hot southern belle. She was super nice IRL and a very hard worker. She always gave her all. I think she may have been the first girl Travis Lee ever worked with for ZFX. I could be wrong, could be Victoria Vixxen was his first. Anyway, as I recall, he was like Holy SHIT dude! Alison had already done a few shows for me by then. Anyway, she did some great movies and then decided to settle down but she left a legacy of awesome bondage material. A lot of girls do enjoy bondage in the safe environment making films provides. Its a great fantasy outlet if the performer is into it, and they get paid too. Nothing wrong with that.

Alison vs. Lisa: I'm not going to compare one to the other, I have many favorites amongst the ladies I've been lucky enough to shoot, but both Alison and Lisa are definitely up there. Both are very easy on the eyes and know how to play the damsel very well.

Armpit Hair: Historically correct or not, I say no. For me a it's a big turn off. I know for some its a fetish, but for me its a deal breaker I think.

Ok, that's it for now...

Well, there's Dark Fetish Network, but I know you're a lightweight GIMPer so trust me, it's way too over the top for you. I would recommend instead FetLife, a very popular site that seems to have something for everyone. I'm a member but I don't go there. It is a very large community, though.

Then all you have to is download this picture, print it out and mail it to them.

Let me know how that goes for you.

2. Sierra Stuart was the very definition of luscious.

I agree with John Galt about the cool picture. Trouble is we all know from one of the Star Trek movies not all species have the same location of their sexual organs. Since it ain't popping out from between his legs I would say its that little thing on the side of his foot so that's why he's screaming.

I haven't seen that type of trap in years. As the space demon mates/eats/smokes a cigarette after he gets squashed by the trap falling over on top of him. That dark fairy type chick is just setting the trap by cranking it. You can trap anything,,,You just need to use the right bait.

Makes you wonder what type of underwear girls will be wearing in the future of GIMP universe. Will it have anti rape gear that takes care of the attacker by blowing everyone up? Will it ride up the crack of her butt as she screams? This type of thing has always made me wonder from way back of the days or Astronauts wearing full fledged helmets and pressure suits and the Women flight attendants wearing short, short dresses and hot pants and just a helmet. Silly Women always worrying about looks, not function.

Enough of this ranting stuff. We will find out latter when "GIMP Trek in the 24th & 1/2 Century" becomes real.

That was always a fascinating aspect of the pulp sci-fi covers from back in the day. Take this one, for instance, posted at this site. Not that I'm complaining, you understand, but one's reaction upon seeing that Vegas showgirl's outfit accessorized with a fishbowl helmet has to be...what were they thinking?

Still working on that next review, folks. Been pretty busy since I captured Arianny. I've been playing with her down in the boiler room...er, I mean dungeon...of my apartment building.

GIMP Poll: I think the fiction section definitely belongs here. It's a nice dimension to the site. Although I have not had the time to read everything there, I've been impressed with the quality of Eda's writing.

I own a Kindle and would prefer to be able to read the GIMP fiction section on that device. My eyes tend to go out of whack reading too much text on a computer screen.

----------

Max Ludwig's posts: I generally skip through them so they don't bother me too much. Judging from his last post, I don't think he really reads anything here. I do think he might make some sales if he would at least try to interact with forum members, like the other producers do. I'm sure he has some insights into the industry that would interest us.

Armpit hair: Major turnoff. I won't watch anything knowing the victim's pits are not shaved. Even stubble there ruins the scene for me.

Now, I'm not sure what to say.

You might want to try posting some screen shots on this website that show the actresses in your movies in "safe" scenes before they are violated. Someone might recognize the actresses and/or the movies.

I have to admit, I don't like your chances. I'm not sure where you found the older titles that didn't have box art, but I suspect the number of people online who have seen the same movies is pretty small.

Hey, I have a GIMP themed joke I want to share.

Q. Why should you never call a GIMPer a pervert?

A. Because he's likely to take it as a compliment.

Gee, Ralphus, I apologize to you and the group. I had no idea my request every 12-18 months would be such a distraction to you and the group. This is one of several reasons I am primarily a "lurker" on your page and not a regular participant. I do appreciate your site, even though I do not participate very often, and when I do it is not appreciated.

It's difficult to know sometimes but I'm pretty sure Ralphus's post was meant as a joke. Either that or it was just another excuse to post pictures of Monica Moore.

Which leads to the point that was truly upsetting about his post.

I know I've said this plenty of times over the years -- and I'm quite happy to repeat it for the folks at Victoria's Secret and the like -- but Monica Moore's boob job is really disappointing. Why would such an attractive woman want to have such ridiculously fake-looking tits?

But maybe I'm naive about these things...it's often easy to misconstrue a sarcastic remark when it comes in written form.

Or maybe Ralphus was just looking for another opportunity to show off his collection of pics featuring women getting their tits tortured. ;) <- Ralphus, take note of my winking smiley face.

Larry originally had them listed under generic names like "Volleyball Girls Under Attack" and such instead of the names assigned by the studios.

Well, I'm pretty sure I don't know that one. My question: How long ago was it you purchased these films?

A Canadian wrote:

Most of the really old titles in my collection were purchased about six to seven years ago, back around 2004/2005. Back then I think Larry was still selling titles in VHS format, I think it was around late 2005 to mid 2006 that Larry started to switch to DVD-R format.

THE T DOUBLE G...

Most of the really old titles in my collection were purchased about six to seven years ago, back around 2004/2005.

Others may correct me if I'm wrong, but I suspect it was around that time that Japanese porn first found its way into North America. I used to order films from SaveonAV.com (the people who now run aaparadise.com, JavParadise.com and other similar websites) and it seems to me their earliest titles didn't go further back than 2004.

I look forward to seeing the screen caps. I don't know if I'll be any help but curiosity has got the better of me at this point.

Well, here are close-ups of the faces of the girls in one of the videos. This title is actually one of two, but the other one I am not too fond of anymore. I may eliminate from my collection one of these days.

In case the rest of you are wondering, Tom recently became the first man to have his entire sense of humor surgically removed. Obviously, there were some side effects, as evidenced by his post this afternoon, but that's to be expected after an operation like this.

Hang in there, Tom! It must be hard to live your entire life without laughing or even cracking a smile, but it's the choice you made and you're a very brave individual for attempting it. We wish you all the very best. Godspeed, young man.

Thanks for giving Mincemeat Pie 1 and 2 a whirl. I certainly appreciate the business! I would say virtually all DVD's were re mastered if they came out on analog format (VHS) first. Later movies were shot and mastered from the get go on DVD, pretty much from about 2000 on.

I'm continuing my slow crawl through the ZFX titles I've been curious about but never bought on tape (as well as some I did). My most recent purchases are Future Shock and Machine Head 2 - Cold Metal. In the case of the latter, I skipped part 1 based on Ralphus' statement that the sequels are more "torture packed" than the originals, which appears to be true as MH2 doesn't pull any punches. However, I still feel I have to get part 1 as the sequel's plot doesn't quite stand on its own.

Despite the re-mastering, the quality of the titles I have purchased does vary considerably. As you mentioned, this can be attributed to one movie just looking better than another in the original version, but in some cases the difference is quite dramatic. My downloads of Robopimp and Future Shock were dark and grainy, while Whiplash 4 was crisp enough to pass for digital. I'm reasonably sure the latter was an analog re-master as I recall purchasing the VHS version in 1999, but it looks very sharp nonetheless.

I wouldn't mind seeing death scenes in a ZFX movie, and it's been mildly implied or left ambiguous a few times, but Rick doesn't go that far, and probably for the same reason he doesn't do hardcore.

Rick didn't address this himself, but I'm not sure death scenes are absent for legal reasons. There was a time when filming hardcore scenes combined with bondage would land you in jail (apparently no longer in the US), but bondage+death or even torture+death have been staples in mainstream films since at least the mid 1960's.

As if to underscore this, in the aforementioned Machine Head 2 Rick provides a delightful shot of what I believe is the carcass of Penelope Pace's character following whatever atrocities brought about her demise in part 1. Apparently, Penelope wasn't available for the sequel, so a quick visit to the local butcher shop provided an affordable stand-in. The scene is far from erotic, but it does supply a good antidote to clothespins and butt slaps when it comes to highlighting that the women are in serious peril. If anyone knows of other ZFX videos wherein it is implied or shown that a victim comes to a similar "bad end" (a favorite GIGA euphemism), please do tell.

Ralphus wrote to Tom Roper:

Glad you seem to be recovering well from surgery...

That's got my vote for the best come-back of 2011. No offence Tom, but there are comics out there who would kill for a straight man of your calibre.

I have a read a lot of Eda's work in the GIMP fiction section and the story that Jon Smithie has there. I plan to read more when I have more time. I tend to read physical books, not a lot online, because I like to read curled up in various places of the house or lying on the floor with my cat and it's uncomfortable to do that with my laptop. Otherwise, I read stories online when I'm at my desk, procrastinating from work. And even if he doesn't read the GIMP Fiction here, I'm just glad to know that John Galt is reading something other than Atlas Shrugged. (You knew I was just biding my time on that one.) My favorite is The Fountainhead, I must have read it more than 5 times.

In other news, Eda Chang, of GIMP Fiction, and I are collaborating to make a movie based one of her stories! It involves spies... that's all I can tell you right now, because... well, it's Top Secret.

And finally, my last piece of news, Martyr has been released on DVD! You can find it at VermeerWorks.

There is currently a version of Martyr with English subtitles and a version with Spanish subtitles. Very soon it will be available for download as well. I'm going to try to embed the trailer of Martyr here. It's the one with Spanish subtitles, the trailer with English subtitles will be up soon on Youtube.

Just a quick follow up,

This question is for Rick (or anyone with the correct answer). What is the brand and model of the bra worn by so many of the wonderful ladies -- Melanie Moore in The Reporter -- Penelope Pace in Supermax , etc. Wonderful sheer cups, can be pulled down, etc. My girlfriend and I have been searching far and wide for that bra with no luck.

I'm also a fan of sheer undergarments and try to use them whenever possible. The bra worn by Penelope Pace in Supermax was a sheer bra and panty set sold by Victoria Secrets which was this item . Only Hearts is the actual manufacturer, Victoria Secrets doesn't resell them anymore. At $55.00, it's not a cheap bra. If you search under "mesh bra" you will get lots of cheaper alternatives. Monica Moore's bra in The Reporter was a thrift store buy, not sure on the branding of it. It is made of some very unique and strong material sort of like rip stop.

I used to hit the thrifts quite often looking for retro clothes. You might want to try them. The great thing about thrift clothes is they are inexpensive, there is a great variety, often off beat, and you can then destroy the clothes without burning 100's of dollars. Buy a cute outfit with some sexy undees for less than 20 bucks and talk your lady into wearing it and cut it or tear it off of her (carefully!)

BTW, I certainly don't think Ralphus meant to insult you, I think he was just trying to help with a bit of possibly ill placed humor thrown in. I definitely appreciate your interest. Hope some of this info helps.

In other news, Eda Chang, of GIMP Fiction, and I are collaborating to make a movie based one of her stories! It involves spies... that's all I can tell you right now, because... well, it's Top Secret.

I'm going to break my Number One rule and actually use an exclamation mark: Congratulations, Eda!

I'm sure it will be a great movie. And I'm particularly pleased that this collaboration is starting with one of my favorite themes, the sexy spy in trouble. I'm already thinking this is a movie I will want to review.

-------

A Canadian: Dude, did you notice that you and I posted within one minute of each other last night, and on the same topic no less. I guess it's true what they say, Great minds think alike.

-------

Rick: I'm glad you were able to provide Tom Roper with the information he's seeking. And in great detail, pics included. Nice.

So my apologies for offending you. And I promise not to make any more jokes until...well, until the next time I post, probably :)

There! I used a smiley! Just for you, man.

I don't like that bra -- not sheer cups.

Tom

-------

Eda and Jane: Cheers to your collaboration! This is like a fantasy come true. Whenever I read Eda's stories (I'm working on Pyramid), I try to imagine what a movie based on the story might look like.

A Canadian: Dude, did you notice that you and I posted within one minute of each other last night, and on the same topic no less. I guess it's true what they say, Great minds think alike.

I can't imagine anyone disagreeing with that conclusion.

* * * * *

Jane and Eda: It sounds like an intriguing collaboration may soon be coming our way. Of course, it still won't count as a "read" if one of Eda's stories gets made into a Red Feline flick that I end up watching, but maybe it will compel me to read some others. Maybe.

My 5-month-old Kindle is up to 150 books that I have read, Jane. None of Ayn Rand's, however, since, as much as I enjoyed them the first time through, the overwhelmingly simplistic and unforgivably selfish nature of her philosophy actually turns my stomach. And even though I had quite a collection of erotic (well, okay, sleazy trash) books in text format, none of them made it onto my Kindle. Those just aren't the books I tend to read between appointments during the day.

It does make me wonder, though, if erotica will make inroads onto the iPad. Because, you know, it is possible to hold the iPad with just one hand. You know that a new technology has "arrived" when porn makes the leap onto it. So to speak.

I'm normally just a lurker but I thought I'd mention a movie to look out for if it hasn't been mentioned already.

The Watermen, apparently coming out this summer, is rated R "for strong bloody violence including rape, gruesome images, nudity, language and brief drug use."

The trailer looks promising. Official site with trailer is here.

IMDB link

-------

Today's Pic: Well, at least now she gets to rest.

The Watermen looks like it is right up my alley... just have to hope that the attacks are not overshadowed by the revenge. And that the scene of the knife moving up toward the bikini top doesn't cut away --- or maybe I mean DOES "cut away"!

I'm cautiously optimistic about this one, though. Especially because the movie is rated R for, among other things, rape and nudity. Female nudity? The shot of the knife about to slice away the swimsuit certainly implies good things. As well as the line "We gonna do what we want with you, baby! You like this, huh? Yeah!"

Secondly, at least one of the female victims will be gagged, and hopefully not with some damn thin piece of material tied between her teeth, the type of weak gag that Hollywood often gives us. The trailer shows a cloth being stuffed in her mouth. That's a sign that maybe these filmmakers know a thing or two about how to gag a girl.

And there's going to be at least 2 pretty girl victims, and both will be tied down. Double your pleasure, double your fun.

The Watermen website doesn't launch until next month; hopefully we'll have more pictures and more details at that time. Until then, this is a nice start. I've got my fingers crossed.

Eda: Have you written any stories about pirates? BTW, I finished The Pyramid, that was pretty cool...several GIMPettes and lots of plot twists.

As a bonus, one of the GIMPettes is named Eda Chang.

-------

Ralphus and Insomniac: Yeah, The Watermen looks like it could be a good one. At least the producers know that after you’ve got them tied up, the next thing is to strip them down. A girl tied to a table with all of her clothing on seems...perverted.

-------

I know the chances are slim that someone out there has not seen Catherine Oxenberg suspended over a monster pit in her underwear, but just in case, here is that scene from Lair of the White Worm.

Jane mentioned here recently that she and I are collaborating on a screenplay for a film for her. I have to say that I am truly honored to have a chance to work with my favorite actress, one who gives everything that she has in every performance ... and happens to be a really nice person on top of that. And if she has an ego, I haven't found where it is yet. Thanks, Jane !!

Regarding The Watermen, there are more photos on the IMDB page of one of the actresses.

It's a little discouraging that in one of the photos it looks like one of of the girls is attempting to free the other before things get interesting. However it's unclear if that scene is before or after the one in the trailer where the villain is hovering over the girl in the red underwear.

Like Ralphus, I'm also only cautiously optimistic about this one. Odds are the nudity comes in some gratuitous sex scene (or worse it's male) and the rape is safely off screen, and the bondage never gets better than what we see in the early pictures. But I guess some hope is better than none!

And for the record, I haven't been a long time lurker just to be a jerk. I can't get into non-mainstream stuff that well. When the production values and acting go down the drain, and when the setup isn't realistic, the illusion doesn't work nearly as well for me. Mainstream stuff is so few and far between, and when it does come (like Alice Creed) you guys are usually all over it without my help.

So I may not be a regular contributor, but in the exciting cases when I see a potential home run coming up, I'll be sure to let you guys know.

On a happier note, check out this French movie called Mes Cheres Etudes. I watched it the other day and it has a fantastic scene in it I think everyone here will love.

The movie is about a French college student (who looks a lot like Isobel Wren) who turns to prostitution to pay her bills. About 2/3 of the way through, one of her regular johns, an older guy, hogties her on the bed in black bondage tape, and does a nice black tape OTM gag on her. She doesn't like this game, and is pretty nervous, but then she rolls over and sees that he's oiling up a nice, big dildo.

She panics and struggles like mad, but he comes over and starts pushing it into her, and she writhes and screams through her gag in very convincing agony and terror.

Then it's over and he just lets her up. She is really pissed and he doesn't give a shit.

Eda: Amazon women, huh? I'll have to check that out.

Yeah, I forgot to mention the riddles...that was another intriguing aspect of the The Pyramid.

-------

Speaking of the universe, guess we all survived doomsday. Yay! Oh wait...maybe all the good people went to heaven and we perverts are stuck here on earth. Oh well...party on!

How's tricks? Been awhile, insanely busy.

One project I'd like to let you all know about. I'm working on my 1st full Leningrad feature film. This might not be the name Clockwork Orange 2.

The premise is there is a social group of Droogs. You know like a bunch of wanna bee's who have social party's. Within that group there is a gang of white slavers.

The basic story is that a women wants to join. The gang has her set up a group of women for kidnapping. They kidnap the group, the girl who sets them up helps them escape (catch & release) then they are caught again.

The gangs intent is to break down the women for sale. Each of the women will be put through a real BDSM/peril/rape scene to break them down.

Then they are sold.

Now I have a couple of twists to make it a real movie & have plans for a double edit for a possible "mainstream" release. I don't want to give away the good parts. Let's just say I am pretty excited with the outline I've pined. This is a 100% Gimp inspired project.

I'd like input. I'll be on vacation next week without internet so don't think I forgot about you.

In other news, I really hung a girl. Pretty intense scene. "Real Hanging Necro" is up at Dirty Deeds.

Right on, Gimp, always a pleasure

Interestingly, ZFX movies were the first time I ever saw this kind of genre, and also one of the first times I actually realized how much I liked the genre.

For some reason, no one else has produced material that I like better than ZFX. They come close, sometimes those publicdisgrace or sexandsubmission sites at Kink.com come a little close...but they just can't match Rick's villains.

Having said that. I sincerely hope that someday Rick considers making movies again and adds to his collection.

I know he has plenty to sell on his site..but please please consider making more.

oh yeah. and if you're ever in southern California please use me as an extra. hahah

I'm having a rather depressing time trying to download something I bought with the "Download to own" feature...

Started off bad in that unlike every other file I've ever downloaded, IE 8 had no idea what the actual size of the file was that it was retrieving, so I had no clue how much time it had left to download.

Second, it aborted about over an hour later and simply gave up and crashed IE 8.

After that, I was unable to go back and re-download it...

There's a link that says you already purchased this and "click here" if you have trouble with the download to own...that doesn't do shit...it just takes you back to the main page again.

By the way, I regularly download 2.5 gig files from newsgroups using my browser and cable internet connection, so I don't think its a problem on my end.

I just sent email to their support, so hopefully they'll figure it out.

For those of you who are fans of mainstream whipping scenes (I know there's at least a few here), I saw a short clip from a movie called Miral starring Freida Pinto, the absolutely gorgeous star of Slumdog Millionaire. She's brought into court and pulls up her sweater to show off some very impressive red slash marks on her back.

There's also a very brief sneak peek of her tied AOH and about to be whipping in the trailer. One big problem, though. Her interrogator puts a bag over her head before the whipping begins! Just great. They cast a truly beautiful actress to be in a torture scene and then they cover up her face during it? I mean, who directed this film, Bill Zebub?

The film comes out on DVD in July. I'm not expecting much, but it is still Freida Pinto getting whipped.

------------

DHT: Mes chères études sounds good. There's a teaser of the scene you described in the trailer. I cringed when I saw it was a French TV movie. I figured, where the heck am I gonna find that? But if you look under its English title, Student Services, I see that Netflix has it for online streaming. I may have to check it out. The star of the film (Déborah François) is definitely a babe.

------------

Max Coxxx: The premise for your upcoming film doesn't sound much like the original Clockwork Orange, other than calling them droogs. Still, any movie that features kidnapping, peril and rape sounds promising, so please keep us updated when you have some more information to share.

Thanks Jeter for loaning her to us for a lil GIMP action, AOH nonetheless. Here's hoping she has a chance to embrace her inner thespian via a torture scene >;)

I've had this problem with a number of the downloads from ZFX VOD. The streaming doesn't work at all, and when I contacted their support folks about that I didn't even get an answer. I've gone further and contacted them when files shut down during download as happened to you--in one case it happened 3 times! They respond pretty quickly with a boilerplate email about making sure your system can handle...blah-blah-blah. Then they reactivate the link and tell you how to get to it to try again. I've finally (and sometimes the first time) succeeded with all the files except one of the old-timers I tried following some posts here. On that one I got about a half of it (the file size is shown somewhere on the site before the download starts--at least I'm pretty sure I've seen it at least once--but I can't find it now) and after watching that I decided to bag it.

The inability to watch streaming is a major irritant, since I've collected all these "points" which would allow me to screen flicks and decide which ones to buy, but, like you: although I do it on many other sites, I cannot get it to work on ZFX. Hopefully Rick will see this and light a fire under these guys.

Let me say I'm sorry that your having problems. It's never good when paying customers don't get their goodies. Just to clarify, is this problem specific to ZFXVOD, or is it all of Hotmovies? Let me know. Feel free to take it to email=).

Ralphus wrote [about Miral]: I'm not expecting much, but it is still Freida Pinto getting whipped.

Well, we might assume that, but with the hood on one can't be sure, it could be a stand-in. Still I have to agree with you, it's a crime to mask the beauty of Frieda Pinto. Dark-haired, exotic-looking...my favorite type of GIMPette.

And I'm glad you mentioned that Mes chères études is also available as Student Services on Netflix streaming...I put it in my queue.

-------

MaX CoXXX: Regarding your new movie idea... since you've got more than one victim available, you might consider a scenario that's been mentioned a few times on this forum. You torture one girl while you make another girl watch, so the second girl is filled with dread about what might happen to herself next. Just a thought.

-------

There are two things that really bug me about Netflix Streaming: 1) the selection of movies is far inferior to those available through the traditional snail-mail; and 2) if you don't watch the movies in your queue in a timely manner, they soon drop into the "unavailable" category.

I saw the new Pirates of the Caribbean today, and for a Disney flick, I was quite impressed with the shot late in the movie of a mermaid (Astrid Berges-Frisbey) tied hands over head to a tree hanging halfway out of a pool of water. It was brief, but beautiful. I've watched previews on youtube, and scoured the net looking for this still shot, but it does not seem to be available at this time. A mermaid in bondage. It was nice. Pirate torture is also nice. A good flogging on the high seas is something I'd like to watch. There is not enough of this available in any medium.

arrakur: I hadn't heard that about Kiera Knightley`s character but it seems plausible. Unfortunately, even if it's true, we'll likely never see the footage, since the movie has been out on DVD for years and it's not likely to ever be released at this point. Plus that, Disney has a long-time reputation for censoring their own work to avoid being politically incorrect. Gads! We can't show torture in a family film! Never mind that it's also a pirate movie and pirates are known for torturing their captives. Too bad, since I happen to think Kiera Knightley is intensely hot and she's long overdue for a scene.

Speaking of pirates, I forgot to mention this earlier, but our friend Sindy Sin is finally back after a long absence and her MovieBound site is movin' and groovin' again with new mainstream scenes, including more from the new Spanish TV series "Piratas" that I mentioned here earlier. Besides the whipping scene, there's now a hanging scene with a lovely lass up on her site. This series figures to be chock full of GIMP goodness, based on early returns so far.

Gads! We can't show torture in a family film! Never mind that it's also a pirate movie and pirates are known for torturing their captives.

It's usually pretty easy to get me worked up about GIMP scenes being chopped but I'm prepared to cut the Disney folks some slack.

I mean, I don't think the films are aimed at adults (I assume that's true for the Pirates of the Caribbean -- I've never seen the movies, although I have been on the ride).

As for realistic depictions of pirates, I can't be swayed by that point, either. Ever since I first saw Baloo teaching Mowgli to sing and dance, I gave up on the idea of reality situations in Disney films.

Now, when you start talking about Quentin Tarantino and/or Robert Rodriguez making an homage to exploitation films, and then refusing to show any nudity -- well, that makes me mad.

-----

Winning: This is off topic, but if there's anything to this report, it looks like Charlie Sheen might be moving into my 'hood.

However, the picture below left - origin unknown - appears to show KK being ensnarled by something in the water.

Maybe if we put our money together, we can get her to star in a remake of a B horror movie. Yeah, right.

So, this leads me to another question. Does anyone have any of her videos, and if so, wanna trade?

* * * * *

I like today's picture but Keira Knightley doesn't have breasts to speak of, so my compliments to the talented photoshopper who endowed her. That doesn't stop her from being smoking hot and she is still high on my list of sexy female celebrities that I would love to see tied up naked.

Anyone else find multiple girls in cages totally hot? Not too, too much out there, but yesterday I stumbled onto an old Japanese movie called "The Woman With The Pierced Nipples". I think this is the world record for most caged babes in a single movie.

I counted 15 in that scene!

It's a sort of Japanese Story Of O - on the light side - although there are a handful of non-consensual scenes. It's a very short movie, at just over an hour long. If the director would have lingered on the cages for another 20 minutes, it probably would have been a 10/10 for me, but as it is it scores only a 7. There are some very nice visuals. If you like LOCKING leather cuffs you'll get a kick out of this movie. (I loved Slave Island, but hated that the girls could have slipped out of their cuffs so easily). It also has a nice sense of humor if you watch it with subtitles.

Any other movies out there with a fair number of caged women?

Hey Badger. I was a member of Sedena for a month a little while ago. There were a handful of clips that were very hot but not enough to stay for more than one month. That said, a few of their latest clips look really good. I'm keeping an eye on them and may rejoin in a later in the year.

Regarding safety of the CC. I _did_ happen to get my CC ripped off around the time that I joined. It happened somewhere on-line and was almost certainly not pilfered by virus. Which means it was one of the places I signed up at. I think Sedena was probably OK...I have my own favorite suspects. Probably en.dmm.co.jp or redtorture.com.

It's just a shame that she wasn't naked, and that she looks a bit like a horse... The other female lead is a hottie though, and the film is worth a look even without the bondage and peril...

John Galt: What I'm hoping is that someone has some of Sadie Belle's independently produced videos, because they are among the few videos of that sort that aren't available anywhere on the web that I know of. She had both Talia Monet AND Karina Santos two of my favorites. grrrr

* * * * *

Badger: I never understood the business plan that included a 3-day subscription for the precise reason you mentioned. The folks who are going to subscribe long enough to download all the archived stuff and then quit have to be a pretty common phenomenon. Why make a special lower-cost option for that? At least get a one-month fee out of it.

That is my preferred modus operandi, in fact. I haven't found a single site that satisfies me on a consistent basis. So I have a dozen or so that I cycle through, joining up about once a year to catch up.

DungeonCorps managed to keep me for over a year when they offered memberships in all of their sites for a single reasonable fee. But then they started getting tardy with the updates, which wasn't so bad, except when subscribers complained in comments, Ogre answered with lots of "then-quit-you-whiner!" attitude, which was unnecessarily unprofessional. Plus, an alarming number of their doms and models sported wall-to-wall tattoos, which is a personal turn-off for me. (And some of them were just plain freaky looking.) So even the great deal wasn't enough after a while.

Personally, I am more comfortable and satisfied with the Powershotz set-up, where I can pick and choose downloads, and then order or download the DVD version if I want. I haven't been excited about any of Steve's recent models, but I still check back at least weekly. I'm hoping for a new Delilah Darling, Lexis Lane, or Hazel. He has subscribers as well, but wisely does not make all of his videos available for the subscription fee. *sigh*

Anyone else find multiple girls in cages totally hot?

Not me. I find depictions of multiple women bound and suspended from the roof -- preferably upsidedown -- to be totally hot. But multiple women in cages doesn't do anything for me. I offer no insights as to why not, as I have no idea.

But I don't like seeing women scrunched up in cages. I like to see naked women spread or stretched out. Now, if the cages were wider and taller, but not very deep, then you could put your collection of victims in spreadeagle and AOH positions and line them up against the wall side by side, like a naked female art gallery.

In the movie, the guys at the "club" called that their wine cellar. They were even talking about it with a new girl who was about to be brought down and initiated for the first time (who had no idea). The bartender was telling her that they had a wonderful wine collection down there - every member brought one or two "bottles" from home that they then stored for a "long time" in the cellar. Ha! Gotta love the Japanese sense of humor.

Anyways, bit of a shame no-one shares my love of the best way to transport and store slavegirls. Was hoping to score some references to hard to find movies I didn't know about. I think a lot of the movies that do cages in a non-cutesy way are probably Japanese and it's tough to search for specific details if you don't speak/type the language. No-one really categorizes Japanese movies very well on English sites, unfortunately.

In the movie I saw 3 girls "transported" this way, he even got out his fork lift to move them onto trucks. I thought this cage was incredibly cruel and it would be torture for a women to stay in it for very long but once she was secured inside, she wasn't going anywhere! Be nice if our old buddy Gord could tell us where this cage came from? And maybe how long he kept girls locked up in one?

Her regular client hog-ties her with electrical tape and ties a cloth over her mouth (to muffle her, not as a gag). He then rapes her (it's not clear whether it's in the pussy or ass, but my take is that it's pussy). It is clearly not consensual on her part.

Ralphus posted 8 screen-shots I made at my URL above.

Those things are really solid and heavy, costs a fortune to build. I would guess they weigh in at around 200 lbs each.

Duration inside them is about 1 to 2 hours with all the inserts and gear. Only one woman has ever traveled in one with the steel inserts. It was at her request. Personally I figured it was too dangerous to repeat. If we had hit a bump with those things inside her it could have been really nasty. We chose an extremely smooth private road to do it and we were very careful with braking and accelerating. Even then she said it was really tough on her orifices.

One guy wanted to buy one off me, and I was going to sell it, until he told me it was his intention to put his girl in it while he was at work. His dungeon was in fact in a secret hidden soundproofed cellar under the house and it was not on any plans.

I pointed out that if he had a fender bender on his way to work and ended up dead or in hospital unconscious or in a coma, his gal was going to die one of the most horrific lingering deaths imaginable.

He figured that was edge play and all part of the turn on.

I didn't sell him the cage.

I recently joined the SubSpaceland website. It is one of a suite of bondage and torture related sites called BDSMpire. Three of the sites are art sites, "TortureDrawing," "Torture Fun," and "Drawing Palace."

The images range from realistic drawing to poser art to avant garde grand guignol, but are typically far too gruesome and graphic for my taste. "Brutal Violence" is another site included in the membership and I checked out a few pages of the updates. It seems to focus more on rape and violence, which again, doesn't exactly make me want to extend my member. . .ship.

I like good looking naked women in bondage. Subspaceland has lots of that. The pros: Lots of good looking naked women in bondage. I'm guessing these are European women, and haven't been afflicted to the same extent as American women by the fad for tattoos, piercings, and silicone. The models are uniformly attractive with typically slender, well toned bodies. Production values are high, much better than, say, TNAV. The cons: The price is a bit steep, there are few updates, and Claudie Marcellino. Which coincidentally is both a name and a curse. The name belongs to the genius in front of and behind the camera in all the videos I watched. The curse is Italian for "May the Three Stooges be your camera men."

Before writing this review I checked the review page and found John Galt's write up of one of the videos ("Deeply Touched") from this site. It is amusing and thorough, and his comments pertain equally well to the videos I watched. I briefly considered simply copying his review and pasting my nom de plume on it, but I was concerned that that might be considered an honor violation by the more narrow minded GIMPers among us. Therefore my review, though original, will echo many of his observations.

I'll focus on the video "Mind-fucked Maid" It stars the appropriately named Inna as Catherine Earnshaw, and Claudie Marcellino as Heathcliff.

First off the title is entirely inappropriate. Where's Inna's frilly little apron? where's her frilly little hat?--oh, maybe they mean "maid" as in "maiden"--well let that pass. But "Mind-fucked?"

I have watched the entire first season of "Lie To Me," which makes me something of an expert on body language. So I can tell you that Inna was not mind-fucked, she was bored. I noticed at one point while she was suspended naked by her wrists that her mouth twitched downward, from which I deduced that she had just converted her modeling fee in Euros to Drachmas and realized that no, she wouldn't be able to afford a manicure.

It's not just Inna. All the models on this site seem strangely distant and uninvolved. I assume that's a conscious direction by Marcellino. I guess that's why it's called SubSpaceLand, as though the model has gone beyond mere passion into SubSpace. Although it's hard to differentiate that from BoredomRealm.

Did I mention that Inna is suspended naked by her wrists? I'm a huge fan. So please, I'd really like to see a straightforward shot. But no, the camera tilts, now Inna is horizontal! Now we have some weird filter and lighting effects, now we zoom in on a body part, now Marcellino's blocking the shot and pestering her with his passionless kisses and gropings and smacks on the butt. (As John Galt points out, this guy does like to kiss. That's like saying the Pope likes to pray. He must have chapstick the size of a Pringle's can. His lips are thin, yes, but they were thick once. It's called erosion. He keeps kissing the models like this and before long he won't have gums.) But I digress.

There is that moment in a suspension as the rope tightens, and maybe you hear the winch clicking, and the model's body stretches before she is finally lifted off her feet. That moment is really erotic for me. What happens in this video? We focus on her butt. That's right, as her body is being lifted off the ground all we see is her butt. And it's a very nice butt. But it doesn't illustrate the physical stress of being hoisted off her feet.

In the next scene Inna is bound (as usual we just jump from one position to another) to a globe of welded chain. She is swung to and fro. Looks like fun. Call Disney.

In the next scene we have explicit sex acts. I have to admit here that I really don't enjoy watching uglies bumping. I know, that's just me being weird. I will say that I have the distinct impression that the ball is finally in Inna's court, she seizes the opportunity, and finally tastes the fruits of a job well done.

This site is one of the most egregious examples of some of my pet peeves. Random, pointless camera effects that obscure, rather than heighten the action. Cuts that destroy any sense of continuity or deny one the pleasure of anticipation. Acting? Plot? Fugit about it.

Wait a minute. . . Mind fucked? Maybe I'm the one being fucked with. Marcellino knows I want to see good looking women in bondage and yet he does everything in his power to deny me that pleasure. Yes, that explains everything! Well played, Marcellino, you sadistic bastard!

After lurking for a few months and watching a favorite subject of mine float around a while. I have the following question:

OK! Your GIMP has been your prisoner now for a few weeks, even months! Would she not by now have a full growth of fur in the armpit/bush department? Would you being the perv you are, give her a sharp blade to do what with? Shave? HMMM?

Jeff Gord- Thanks for the info on the "pichard cages". Always good to hear from the producers of the content that we love so much! Now if we could just get Natasha Flade to tell us how she got her husband to finally do a few pop shots...

John Galt: I really enjoy those pictures of Mary-Louise Parker...I have been in love with her since the first time I saw her. She has that girl-next-door/hot look that makes her an ideal GIMP candidate. In fact, if she had been my girl-next-door, she'd now be living in my basement.

jhlipton: Thanks for the caps from Student Services...I will certainly be watching that soon. Nice addition to the database.

DHT: Dude you really turn up some wicked-interesting clips. And whenever I follow your links, I find more like them (see URL).

Jon Smithie: Site reviews are as welcome a public service as movie reviews. I hope this leads to more.

-------

Looker: Very good question, glad you stepped up and posed it.

Under no circumstances would I hand her a blade. What I do is this: while she's tied/chained/suspended (pick your poison), I shave her - not very gently of course. Then I rub some irritating substance onto the shaved areas to make her scream. Perfect solution: gets rid of the unwanted hair and elicits the desired sound effect. Gag optional, in case you'd rather hear mmmmMPH! instead of a scream.

That House Of Gord caging scene was excellent and up until finding this new obscure Japanese movie, was pretty much alone near the top of my favorite cage scenes. I loved the fact that you got to see the girls go in. Loved the little background story from Jeff on that cage.

I believe one of Jeff's cages was also used in a old very nice Sadie Belle movie called Undercover. It's worth looking up even though Sadie or her site aren't around anymore.

Also, for anyone into cages, check out a little video on Restrained Elegance's video pages called, Elle at the Slave Kennels. Incidentally, the Restrained Elegance team has started making longer movies (elegancestudios.com). Probably a little soft for most of the crowd here, but he is an amazing photographer, and will probably crank out some very cool movies.

Agree totally with the posted review of Subspaceland. Gorgeous girls, occasional killer ideas, sporadic updates, but somehow none of the movies have ever really done it for me and have inspired more than one viewing (or even a single viewing without fast-forwarding). I've been keeping an eye on it for a while but don't think it merits a revisit yet.

Max Coxxx: The premise for your upcoming film doesn't sound much like the original Clockwork Orange, other than calling them droogs. Still, any movie that features kidnapping, peril and rape sounds promising, so please keep us updated when you have some more information to share.

I'm not trying to totally copy the movie. 1/2 of the movie has no Gimp action at all. My premise is more of a modern copy cat group. We are incorporating Alex speak in a bar scene that will have a leader challenge like the original. My bum in the alley will be a hot chick beat to death, graphically. So I'll have some similarities to the original. I'm not going for a social commentary about the conditions in 60's era Britain. I'm shooting for a legendary kidnap, torture rape, white slavery movie with A Clockwork Orange as a theme & elements from other Gimp style movies like The Abductors & others. Maybe I can get a helicopter.

MaX CoXXX: Regarding your new movie idea - since you've got more than one victim available, you might consider a scenario that's been mentioned a few times on this forum. You torture one girl while you make another girl watch, so the second girl is filled with dread about what might happen to herself next. Just a thought.

Yep, totally part of the outline thus far. See, the girl that sets up the girls to get kidnapped, helps them escape. The reason is to catch them instilling in them that escape is hopeless. But that alone does not "break" the women's will. There will be a group bondage peril scene (5 victims is my goal). There will be the 1 girl who is the "strong willed" girl who just wont break. Taking my background in death fetish into account.... Don't want to give away too much. But ya, there will be a lot of that.

I think that I've written at least seven stories the past few months, and now it's time for a break from story writing. [But not from working with Jane on a screenplay for a film that we hope will begin the next GIMP film franchise.]

Hope everyone enjoys the holiday weekend.

Online videos I found today.

A gal tortured with a magical implement

Some caucasian woman being stripped, tortured, molested and FOUGHT OVER by a group of naked japanese women + one guy

A naked woman whipped by members of some SM cult, from a spanish movie

A woman tied to X-rack

No, you have to humiliate her more by pulling out the hair with a tweezers, or force someone else to shave her. (maxxcox-one of the multiple girls in the movie)

Someone wrote this under the IMDb "Goofs" section:

Continuity: When the church organist [Andrea Runge] is shown crucified, she is first shown with her legs together. But a later shot shows her spread-eagled with her legs apart.

That doesn't sound like a "goof" - it sounds like an "improvement".

Could anyone repost the link to that Polish website with Hell in the title that featured women in Medieval restraints? I've searched up and down the website but can't find the link, and somehow or other I lost the pics and the link. Thanks.

Jon Smithie: Thanks for an excellent review of the SubSpaceLand video. Funny as hell, and along with John Galt's similar review, that sounds like a frustrating website to deal with. The director seems clueless, and it always pisses me off when directors decide that they are the show and not the women in bondage. Just film the damn thing and quit trying to get all artsy-fartsy with the camera. If your material is strong enough, it doesn't need fancy camera angles and effects. All those do is distract from the action onscreen.

The direct link to your review is in my Homepage URL above.

MAV: Thanks so much for posting the video to Endure. That was probably the best mainstream scene I've seen all year. What amazed me was just how long they had her tied out there to the tree...obviously, it's hard to tell how much time was passing without seeing the rest of the movie, but it looked like days. Can you imagine how sore a woman would be to be tied in that position for hours or even days? My only problem, and I'm sure I sound like a broken record, but a thin cleave gag like that is not going to keep a woman quiet. She could have easily yelled out for help while the guy was looking for his dog, but I'll cut them a break since it meant we got to see her tied up out there even longer.

--------------

DHT: Wow, a really good find on Escac Corten. Like Jon Smithie noted, it's pretty strong stuff, and would have been a classic except for the "happy" ending, since I hate it when the bad guys lose. The first victim was ultra-cute, so it was nice to see her get tied up and tortured, even if it was implied. The other victim was faced with my favorite kind of peril, potentially burning to death while tied up, so the way she escaped that was a bit a tease. Overall, a very worthwhile watch.

Regarding Looker's question, I think it's an excellent one. In fact, let's make it an official GIMP Poll:

GIMP POLL:
Your GIMP has been your prisoner now for a few weeks, even months! Would she not by now have a full growth of fur in the armpit/bush department? Would you, being the perv you are, give her a sharp blade to do what with? Shave? HMMM?

We've already had two excellent replies, and I'm in the same camp as the others. No way do I give her a blade. I'll do it myself, and I'll make sure it's as painful as possible. No shaving cream, I'll dry shave her (with an old razor) and then fresh it up with some after-shave lotion. That's for the underarms. I like Mr Bush's plan to pluck out the pussy fur with tweezers, and take as long as I want to do so, really drawing out her agony for hours. Hey, good hygiene takes time!

Your GIMP has been your prisoner now for a few weeks, even months! Would she not by now have a full growth of fur in the armpit/bush department? Would you, being the perv you are, give her a sharp blade to do what with? Shave? HMMM?

Ask the Female members about plucking their eye brows one at a time.

Then think of how many hairs you can pull at once with pliers?

For you Dolcett fans remember how many times they used a torch to remove body hair and the comment look how much time we saved from the old days of shaving them. Ken Marcus used a candle to remove muff hair from a girl. He said it was keeping the flame far enough to burn hair but not to burn skin. Well this is a GIMP moment so "Don't burn the meat just warm it up"

Anyone remember the Dolcett cartoon of the two girls captured by the Indians? Both tied to a Stake. One was already burned by a quick fire. All hair removed and the other just was getting the torch treatment by an almost bare butt Squaw.

Don't look at me like that. This is a GIMP moment peril.

A few things puzzled me about the scene in Escac Corten when the girl is tied to the chair and has gasoline poured over her. It's an intense scene, but I can't help it, I got to take things apart. First, they've got plastic sheeting laid down. Why? With the amount of gas he's using, cleaning up the crime scene is going to be the least of his worries. Which leads to the next issue. He's in a narrow hall, and he's just poured gallons of gas over his delectably squirming and terrified victim. It reminded me of a time I had to burn trash in an oil barrel, and thought I'd try out for a Darwin award. So I poured gasoline over the trash in the barrel. I lit a piece of paper and tossed it. I didn't throw it hard enough and the paper didn't quite make to the barrel, but apparently it made it to the gas fumes because the barrel went off like a cannon and there was suddenly burning trash fifteen feet in the air and drifting into the trees. So I was thinking about that while this guy flics his bic, standing in what is essentially the mouth of a blowtorch and thought, hmm, they must be using really low octane gas.

Also, if the GIMP had been a Mythbusters fan, she would have known that an open flame will set off gas, but a lit cigarette will not. Still, I can't blame her, if I'd been in her position I probably would have swallowed the cigarette too. Better that than smoking it anyway; you get lung cancer from those damn things.

I know this is a really really stupid stupid question but since you're such a fan of immolation you are aware of the movie "Don't Go In the House," right? Personally I liked it for the arms overhead nude bondage, and didn't really care for the guy turning the girl into a crispy critter. I felt that if he'd walked in with his flame retardant suit and his flame thrower, melted some chocolate and marshmallows between graham crackers, and then made her watch him eat it, that would have been torture enough. Then she could have been left naked in bondage, and I wouldn't have been left wishing for so'more.

Any word on the Polish website with the Medieval restraints? Anyone got the link?

All: Discovering this ENDURE movie has reminded me of something I've thought for a while now, and I know that this notion contravenes all conventional wisdom, but perhaps one day my opinion shall be vindicated and become widely accepted as self-evident, and you will remember me kindly for having said it early. Despite the stigma of his career's comedic, scandalous, and baffling origins, I feel that Tom Arnold is one damn fine actor. If I were making movies, I would try to have him in all of them. He's actually quite daring and versatile.

But this is one scene that rings my bell big time. I think it's an amazing scene with great special effects. Even though I know that's a mannequin that's being set on fire with the blow torch, it's a very convincing illusion, one of the all-time best GIMP scenes ever filmed. The actress really sold it, and I could totally believe she went up like a flare. How you feel about burning torture will determine how big your dick gets while watching the scene.

Regarding the Escac Corten scene, I had the same thoughts. It's not necessarily the gasoline itself that is flammable, but the fumes. I've seen similar scenes where the bad guy flicks his lighter after dousing his victim in gasoline, and I'm thinking to myself, damn it, guy, be careful! You could burn yourself instead of the chick you're trying to scare. I was not aware that a lit cigarette will not ignite gasoline, though. Is that always true? I haven't seen that episode of Mythbusters.

Still, it's not something I would take a chance on. I don't like gasoline for starting fires anyway. Too quick. Best to just tie her to a stake, light the pyre the old fashioned way and watch her squirm as the flames slowly make their way toward her. Much more entertainment value if you can make it last longer.

An interesting question. We certainly want to keep the girls looking fresh and smooth. I suppose once every 2 to 3 days, they would be chained by wrist and ankle in an X, soaped and shaved. And since almost anything is a turn-on to SOMEONE, we would charge a fee to watch, and a higher one to participate.

I figured you were all over that scene from Don't Go In the House, but I had to make sure. It was a magical moment for me too first time I saw it; when the woman slowly returns to consciousness, looks down at her chained ankles, looks up at her chained wrists, and then realizes she's stark naked and in deep shit. It's one of those rare moments in a mainstream film when you actually get what you're hoping for.

I googled the Mythbusters episode about the cigarette and gasoline. It was from the 2005 season, a special about Hollywood myths. They determined it was partly plausible. A lit cigarette will generate 450-500 F, gas ignites at 500-540 F. So if you're actively smoking the cigarette you can ignite gas. If you flick the cigarette into a pool of gas it is highly unlikely to set it off. So yeah, I think the girl in the scene was wise to swallow the cigarette.

DHT: I wimped out on the custom. I'm basically both a cheapskate and a Puritan at heart. So despite the fact that I found the perfect producer, who I'm convinced would have done an excellent job and for a reasonable price, I decided not to go through with it. In fact I went to the other (Puritan) extreme and deleted all my pics and email address and all the stories I had been working on. Sigh.

I like Tom Arnold as an actor. He has the versatility to be your best (slightly wacko) buddy or your worst (totally wacko) nightmare. He's been out from under Roseanne for a long time now, so yeah, I got nothing against him.

Today's Pic: THIS is what I like to see. Stretch her out, make her sweat, make her wish you'd never met. (Making her wet is a good substitute for making her sweat.)

Jon Smithie wrote [of Tom Arnold]: He's been out from under Roseanne for a long time now...

I'm trying hard NOT to form a mental image of this. ;)

Question I have; the infamous Goldfinger scene, with Bond on a table and a laser beam running close to his balls, has this scene ever been done with a female victim? I have not seen a flick as yet with such a scene.....

It wasn't just that she was completely naked and burned alive, it was how that particular sequence was filmed. Unlike the rest of the movie, which seemed dull and boring even when it was depicting some pretty nasty events, Johanna's ordeal was a fetishistic delight you rarely see in mainstream films. The camera lingered on her nudity, her bondage, and her terror-stricken face. We get to see her skin glisten when she is covered in gasoline, and there are no cut-aways as she writhes desperately when the flames engulf her. I can easily imagine this scene being the inspiration for the rest of the flick - that whoever was behind it, wanted the perfect GIMP burning, but could only show it in context of an otherwise average horror production.

Sadly, this seems to be Johanna's only film role. Which kind of makes me wonder: that incineration was awfully convincing...

Poll: My GIMP has been my prisoner for weeks or months? You must be kidding. That sort of relationship would make me the victim. Out with the old and in with the new, I say. And those upgrades would occur before my captives had a chance to sport a five o'clock shadow let alone anything resembling "fur" (shudder). I always did break my toys before the batteries died.

Eda: Congratulations on your latest. Marvellous work, as always.

Best Video Ever???

DHT--I purposely left out the name of the producer since she mentioned that they don't ordinarily shoot custom videos; but offered to shoot one for me since they already had a set and some of the props that would meet my requests. I'm sure I'm being unnecessarily punctilious, and that really I'm only trying to hide my embarrassment at turning the offer down. Let me put it like this: It's as though the hottest chick in the school asks you to take her to the prom, and your response is, "Gosh, Jane, I don't know, does that mean I'd have to pay for your dinner?"
