Some more found femdom

Here’s one:

This has to be the kinkiest thing I have ever seen on TV.  It’s a show I’ve never even heard of, and it seems almost painfully stupid in every way.  I think watching any other episode would probably make my eyeballs explode.  Not a line can be uttered without gurning, not an actor acts without over-acting.  You can almost hear the ‘ba-boom’ after each obvious punchline.  It’s hard to believe it’s aimed at adults.  And yet it ran with one episode that contains everything that the Exit to Eden movie could have had and didn’t (you’ll see why I compare it to that terrible film if you watch it).

Look: a warning to people who take their BDSM seriously.  This is just a joke about the lifestyle, using it as an excuse for a cheap laugh, OK?  I know that offends some people, and I understand why.  Personally, I find mainstream depictions of the lifestyle that are just kitschy stereotypes rather erotic – in a way, the cartoonishness is oddly part of the attraction.  If you want to see a celebration of the seriousness of the emotional commitment of an S&M relationship, this programme is not for you.  Nor’s this blog, probably.

But the leading actress is icily attractive, and there are some nice scenes with good stuff going on, mainly in the background.  So anyway, if you like that sort of thing (and I warn you again – it is quite stunningly stupid), here you go:

PS – the Hulu thing will only work if your computer is located within the USA.  But that’s why we have proxy servers, right?  Of course, you didn’t hear that from me…

And another…

If you’re British you probably already know this, but there’s an (equally kitschy!  Less explicit.  Less stupid.) episode of Space 1999 – Britain’s rather strange answer to Star Trek – called Devil’s Planet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnZ3sYIvLqo

The ladies with whips appear around 8 minutes in.  Though at 7, there’s a sequence of a spaceship crash-landing that’s really rather good for 1977!

In the novellization (oh yes: as a teenager I scoured the bookshops until I found it – bet that volume outsold all other Space 1999 books) came the line “I shall hunt him down and from his skin I shall make a whip!”.  It still haunts my dreams.

  1. You should read the book and then the 'Beauty' series by Anne Rice or her other pen name, A. N. Roquelaure! Very interesting….SCM

  2. That was awful. Horribly painful to watch, but a little like a car wreck, it was hard to look away. And I say that as a fan of both Bruce Campbell and Sam Raimi (who had a producer credit).

    However, I have to agree that it was surprisingly kinky for a mainstream show. Particularly one that was obviously aimed at prime time family viewing (based on the corny jokes and stupid plot). I can't think many parents would have enjoyed explaining to their younger children what the leather and whips were all about.

    Of course if they had based it on the real work of the marquis they'd have been lucky to not get jailed for obscenity. Even by today's standards his work is pretty extreme stuff.

  3. Thank you all for comments.

    Thank you Sandy. Yes, I've tried the books but there's rather too much maledom for me, I'm afraid, and I'm not permitted to read that sort of thing.

    Paltego – yes, I know. It was only the kinky stuff made it bearable.

    Hello Saratoga. I doubt it. They couldn't afford her. Spent all their money on cardboard and eggboxes for the special effects.

    Yes, it is. All right, they only spent half the money on eggboxes. That's where the other half of their budget went. Most of the rest of the cast weren't even Americans, but they had a good go at the accents.
