9&1/2 Weeks 1985 with Micky Rourke (& later Wild Orchid 1989)

Wonderful list. Thank you. “Lair of the White Worm” is awesome. I would add “Hellraiser” as well — and a few truly weird ones, including “The Beast”, “Thundercrack”, and “Visitor Q”. I’m not sure if they qualify as mainstream, though.
That’s an excellent list, comprehensive or what. To add to it I can only reach for a one scene wonder in a Czech or Polish art Movie, about railways and war, where a ticket collector uses a rubber stamp to cutely mark a beautiful young woman’ bottom. What I like to call kinky sex for normal people, rather than subs whining “Can Mistress kick me a hundred times in the balls, please. Can she saw my head off?” I looked for the name and director on Wiki till hundreds of names with thirteen letters did my head in. Is this the most useless addition to a list ever?
Yep 🙂
The film is “Closely Observed Trains” dir Jiri Menzel, in Chech+Eng subtitles
Wow now i knew another human who is a Fan of Peter Greenaway! have a nice Day your slave0815
Can I recommend “J’accuse” the documentary that accompanies Peter Greenaway’s recent offering, the art movie “Nightwatching” with Martin Freeman. He shows you just how beautiful and fascinating a documentary can be, it doesn’t talk down to you, it’s so layered, once you’ve finished you want to go back and watch it all over again. It’s all about Rembrandt’s painting “The Night Watch” . If you ever thought painting and old masters are dull – think again. (If you’re going to watch both – watch the documentary first.)
There is a film called The London Connection made in 1979 and directed byRobert Clouse. It is a fairly routine espionage film but it contains one scene which is sure to get the male sub’s cock rising. Rita Webb plays the part of a cockney landlady who is being questioned in her flat by police about the disappearance of a scientist. She plays the innocent and they are convinced she has nothing to hide. When they leave she walks down the hallway of the flat and opens a closet door. We then see the scientist tied up and gagged in the closet and wriggling helplessly. As he wriggles Rita says with a snear in her cockney accent ‘How yer feeling dearie’ and slams the door shut.
I found it a major turn on!
Have only seen “The Lair Of The White Worm” once, years ago. It was on TV without either slave or I paying much attention, and so our memory of it is very vague. However, the one image that did make us concentrate more and had a very powerful effect on us was that of Amanda Donohoe in her latex-like boots by the pool with the young man in it. We were in the company of slave’s mother (who was staying with us) and, so as not to “offend her sensitivities”, we refrained from commenting on Donohoe’s sexiness openly, but we both knew what effect she’d had on us. I think we squeezed hands discreetly as a secret signal to each other. Parents! Later, once alone in our bedroom and spurred on by that scene (and striving to be a little careful noise-wise as we didn’t have the house just to ourselves!), we were just compelled to fuck, culminating in what I can only describe as electrifying orgasms.
Even though various elements of kinkiness, including boots, were already playing a part in our lives, this little anecdote dates back to a time well before when we began exploring FemDom, let alone incorporating it in our relationship. Yet, we have never forgotten it. If I’d had the full sexual control I now so enjoy, I may well have denied him an orgasm!
Incidentally, following Liz Taylor’s recent death, the news showed a clip of her as Cleopatra ordering Richard Burton to kneel. Shocked and trying to resist, he questions her command, only for her to repeat it even more forcefully, eyes glaring and lips full of authority. Very dominant! And let’s not forget the Dominatrix that drags Inspector Clouseau into her domain in one of the “Pink Panther” films! Slave always says that this was a key scene in awakening what became his compulsion for Female Domination.
I don’t see the Matrix movies listed Mistress Sidonia. May not be erotic but with that much latex worth a mention 🙂
This list contains most of my fave ever movies,… movies that caught my attention & definitely influenced my fantasies from a very early age,… as well as a whole host of titles that are i’m now Very much looking forward to viewing.
Some of David Cronenberg’s earlier films, especially Videodrome would be included in my list 🙂
Many Thanks, Mistress Sidonia
from a happy moviegeek 😀
This magnificent list contains pretty much all the cinematic and televisual influences shaping and reinforcing my kinkiness down the years, but there are a few others etched on my memory as well. The sadistic Servelan from Blake’s Seven had a pretty profound effect on me as a small boy, as did Joan Collins as Alexis in Dynasty, another real bitch I was fixated by, particularly when she was wearing leather, as was often the case.
There was also the series ‘the Worm that Turned’ in the Two Ronnies where the UK was ruled by dominas who exerted their power by feminising the men folk. That certainly touched off something in my pre-pubescent mind.
Bound was a great film for the leather fetishist, with one particular lesbian sex scene in a car where the steamy action was accompanied by the sound of creaking leather.
There was a later version of The Wicked Lady in the 1980s staring Faye Dunnaway, who was even bitchier as the evil lady of the manor turned highwaywoman than Margaret Lockwood in the sumptuous 1945 original.
Maitresse and The Night Porter I bought on DVD on the recommendation of Mistress Sidonia’s previous writings – and they didn’t disappoint. But what about the scene with Salma Hayek dancing with a snake in After Dark? – alluring, sexually powerful and dominant.
There was one TV documentary not on the list which stirred my curiosity in and kicked off my lifelong addiction to BDSM. It was on the BBC in around 1991 or 92 -trouble is I can’t remember the name. It was about a married couple in a sub-Domme relationship and featured whipping, suspension and heavy bondage scenes, as well as forced fem where the Domme took her ‘girlfriend’ out for the evening. Does anyone else remember this and its title?
I’m going to add ‘The Worm that Turned’ as I think given it was Sat night peak time viewing for millions it should be there and I’m going to see if I can find a copy of The Wicked Lady with Faye Dunnaway as that sounds interesting.
Salma Hayek dancing with a snake is here but in my list of female Vampires see here – http://www.theenglishmansion.com/blog/archives/3231
Forgot to mention Superman II, featuring the very powerful and dominant Ursa, as another pre-pubescent inspiration for my future sexuality. See http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ursa+%22superman+2%22&hl=en&lr=&as_qdr=all&prmd=imvns&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=Cy9lT8C5Os6w8QPeo6W3CA&ved=0CCYQsAQ&biw=1024&bih=564
“Caligula” cannot be called a mainstream movie, but it is certainly a cult movie because it combines explicit kink and perversion (Penthouse films was one of the producers) with a cast of excellent actors: Malcom MacDowell, John Gielgud, Peter O’Toole and Helen Mirren.
If we think of mainstream movies including scissoring scenes (a fetish I personally adore), there are several movies that come to my mind:
– Blade Runner: the scene where a super sexy Daryl Hannah scissors Harrison Ford is a masterpiece, and I just regret it was too short. I understand that making it longer (and making Ford suffer more marmalising) would have broken the rhythm and also the storyline, but I wish they could have filmed it as an extra 😀
– Goldeneye: Famke Janssen scissoring Pierce Brosnan is another example of sexy girl vs handsome guy. Famke Janssen’s role is a sadistic Georgian officer who uses scissors to torment men and gets very horny while doing it. This way, she kills a ship captain, and puts Bond into trouble twice.
I must add that in these two movies I was very disappointed by the way the heroes get rid of the scissors. Very unrealistic, but hey… they are the bloody heroes and the evil women are forced to behave stupidly so that the hero has a chance.
– The War of the Roses: Kathleen Turner makes clear to his husband (Michael Douglas) that she does NOT want sex with him by scissoring his ribs. Later, when their personal fight becomes a real war, she tries to soften him up by giving him a blow job, then bites his dick and while he’s twisting in pain, she drags him and throws him down the trap door.
KLUTE was filmed in Manhattan. Jane Fonda IN HER Younger Days was on Top Of Her Game/ before She started commuting to Hanoi! HER Longg Leggs were Tremendous. Inside Those Thigh Highs She was the Best. One of My First Encounters With The Leather Gendre! TERRIFIC……PS….Enjoying The OLYMPICS
Hi and thanks for the great movie list. Does anyone remember the movie from the 80’s (I think) with a dominant female character who used to physically dominate men in the bed by slapping them? She was hot, slim, very manipulative… I remember a scene with a man lying on his back… She is standing over him in a very dominant pose, starting to slap him hard across the face. In the final scene she climbed on the car driven by a male character hitting the windshield with something before she had to die. I would like to know the movie title. Any help is appreciated.
