Pro-am S/M done by anyone else would probably flop. But director Kym Wilde keeps the action at a sustained sexual pitch, even when things go off track in unexpected ways, like having the tables turned on her or a participant who finds she can't handle the abuse. And all of it, the unexpected reactions to the sexual intensity, is fascinating to watch.

Goldie McHorn starts off full of promise in her first bit of S/M, only to break down in tears under Wilde's vicious whip. Christi Mairs is a natural performer in her first on-camera appearance, as are pros Angelica Sin and Rich Handsome, who generate some intense heat. Gina Neear and Rita Erotica bring a mature look and response to the dungeon.
