Critic's Corner

[adivie]

Sorry, Cynthia (Sinthia?) never showed up in the movie. It was all Cheyenne. You have a good point for a sequel or Part II. Sinthia shows up and Dave is able to take her captive. However, how will he explain no Cheyenne and no mask. I have not seen the skull mask in his later movies.

That's the thing about this one: NINE (count 'em) models in one 20-minute story! Two flight attendants, three terrorists, a nosy neighbour, two uniformed cops, an unfortunate postal worker, are all assembled. I'm not sure if there was a double, triple, or other multiple booking on this occasion, but I don't think such a thing is likely to be repeated any time soon, even if one of us comes up with a custom budget of $10,000 or more.

This one has, in no particular order:
Flight attendants in uniform
Flight attendants out of uniform
Desperate terrorists who specialise in bondage
Coincidental, some would say gratuitous, arrivals by other lovely women at a remote location
A hand gag or two
Cops, also in uniform and cool shades
Cops easily surprised and overpowered
An assortment of ropes, cuffs, cloth and tape for binding and gagging damsels
Guns being waved about
A cute post-lady
Plenty of cleavage and a smattering of toplessness
An exploding plane

It's not something I ever thought I might say, but it's possible there's just a little too much going on at times, but with six lovely ladies writhing around in bondage towards the end, it's not really a criticism.

So it's not actually my favourite ever video, but all this for ten dollars represents extraordinary value.
I'm hoping Dave is planning Hijacked 2, as soon as the pandemic is declared over.

This was another time.

Sales of multi-model videos were very good back then and piracy was still in its infancy. If I laid out the cash for something like this now, it would be on PornHub or BoundHub the day after release, as well as on various Russian hubs and social media platforms. I doubt that I would recoup even a tenth of the outlay.

Those people who insist on pirating, or at the very least posting stuff for all to take for free, sounded the death knell for this kind of project years ago.

Piracy used to be an automatic Death sentence about hundred years ago. Maybe if it was returned, online piracy would lighten up. Also, to note, the Russian, Eastern Europeans, and Far East Asians are very lax on prosecuting Internet piracy as long as it is not on their soil. When I was stationed in Japan, the copyright laws were so lax, I could purchase a new cinema release American movie just days after it hit the big screen in the USA.

OK, so it's one of my scripts (with help from my script associate), but this a goodie.
For once, it's not overloaded with bondage scenes, but before you run off, there is still plenty of Romanov and St James goodness to get your teeth into, particularly Vonka, if you're a hairy arachnid.

I like a turnaround scenario, so here we get Jasmine taking advantage of a hitch-hiker falling into her clutches, carrying out some disturbing research, but then herself captured by a resourceful Vonka, who discovers a previously hidden thirst for experimentation on beautiful researchers (though I'm sure that probably goes for all of us). I'm not sure it was totally necessary to strip Jasmine to her underwear, but there are probably scientific reasons for it.

There's the obligatory sexy specs, blue and pony-tailed hair, unsuitable footwear, a couple of sexy knockouts and the bondage and gags are suitably varied. Did I mention Jasmine's lingerie?

So far, so obvious. There are, though, a few surprises: a sexy(ish) lab coat, the wielding of swords, Vonka's boots and Jasmine's friend, Spidey.

'Phobias' also gives our heroine and villain (make your own minds up if that description is fair for either of our protagonists) for plenty of acting and dialogue, and I put it to you that they really deliver - they would be in the frame for Bondage Oscars if they were a thing (and I really wish they were), though I suspect an argument might ensue about who's the star and who's the support.

I'll admit to a stake in this one, but it's really pretty fine in my view - what do YOU think?

[adivie]

Is there ever a reason for stripping a woman down to her underwear or lingerie when she is bound, gagged, and helpless? Do we really need need a reason or do we just want to see them helplessly struggle in the bra and panties?

As to the Bondage Oscars, I believe we had come to the conclusion the name of the award would be The Dave. We just could not decide on what the statue would look like. I remember you contributing some very good suggestions on that account.

So as 202 comes to a close, shall we restart the Beauties-In-Bondage Awards topic again? I do not think we ever completed it.

[GB2691]

Searching for reasons is a short-cut to madness.
And wastes time.

Isn't that right, Jasmine?

[GB2691]

It's the old, old story: Girls get lost, other girl and partner capture them, some canoodling, escape and recapture, they all end up bound and gagged. But what a telling of such a cliched plot!

Massive plus right up-front: we have three A-listers as the stars, all in short skirts and high heels, with colour-coded tight tops. Bad girl Hannah (black top) and her partner tie up the interlopers (Cali in pink, Cadence in white) because reasons. Ms Perez' partner is then sent off on some errand or other, so that she can get to know her captives better ( ). Cadence is appalled by Hannah's attentions, but Cali is far more receptive, and Hannah unties her, all the better to make out. Of course, it's a ruse: Cali knocks her out, ties HER up and C&C escape. Except they don't. Our henchman returns and forces them back indoors. Unable to trust Hannah, he soon has all three ladies hogtied and gagged, and they writhe around on the floor in an extremely attractive manner as we leave them to an uncertain fate...

I think you'll rarely see a hotter line-up in any B-in-B production (or anywhere else), then there's the sexy outfits, the mild but titillating girl-girl action, lots of struggling in rope bondage, pleasing interaction and dialogue, a henchman that does his job and then keeps out of the way, and did I mention the tight tops?

So top stuff (and a contender for awards in my book). If you can think of a better way to spend 24 minutes*, please let me know, I'm all ears.

*Maybe a season five episode of The Simpsons...

Jasmine St. James has quite a fan club even if she does not do Twitter, Facebook, or Only Fans. Many times I have posted about her on other forums I have received numerous positive responses about her and her performances. She is a lovely model who does not get into going nude or getting groped herself but, as a villainess, will gladly strip down and torment her victims.

In "Admired From Afar", Jasmine has a secret admirer who finally comes out into the open to admit his fondness for her. He has a proposal for her. He wants to see her in her underwear and tie her up as a bonus. Of course, she refuses but he has a backup plan. He has overheard Jasmine talking to the competition behind her bosses backs. He will turn over his evidence unless she complies with his wishes. She is reluctant, at first, but see no other choice in the matter and complies.

Jasmine is tied up while standing and then stripped to her bra and panties. She is laid down on the floor so that pictures may be taken of her. After the pictures are taken, her captor decides the relationship will not work out after all and leaves. Jasmine is left to struggle against her bindings to get free.

Jasmine St. James, etc.

That's the trouble with secret admirers!
It's part of the reason I'm an 'out' admirer of Jasmine, and I'm a long way away, so no worries on that score for our heroine...
