Let's say it right up front: this is the bondage/domination tape to which all others should aspire. I have literally never seen a specialty tape this well done. Not only is the camerawork (by Jane Waters) flawless and the women — Alexis Payne, Ashley Renee, Shayla LaVeaux(!) and Chasey Lain(!!!) — all beautiful, just the opening shot of Chasey pacing around in a horse bridle and bit will turn any domination fan into an exhausted puddle real quick. Even the music is excellent.

Chasey is Alexis' slave, and when she misbehaves, Alexis has to put her back in line with some expertly-delivered blows of her riding crop or, later, her cat o' nine tails. Trouble is, Chasey is attracted to Shayla, who, with her mistress Ashley Renee, comes to visit Alexis' palatial home. Alexis and Shayla discuss the philosophy of domination while putting Chasey through her paces, some of which involve arcane devices rarely seen elsewhere (including a vaginal electro-stimulator). Without going into too much detail, let's just say that if you're a bondage/fem-dom fan and you only buy one tape this year, this should be it. Retailers are advised to place this tape prominently in your B&D display, and recommend it to all B&D fans.
