The Enigmatic Angel

flip

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Sun, 18 Dec 2011 21:12:00 +0000

I contemplate
the Switch

should I go
left
should I go
right
should I be
Dominant
should I be
submissive

or should I choose
elsewhere
and should I choose to be
different

something new
that I never was before
somewhere else
that I have never explored before

my future
morphs
flows
shifts
changes

in an eye-blink of time

who knows
what will happen
this time
when I decide to
flip
the
switch.

power

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 22:06:00 +0000

it resonates
in every cell
in every thought
in every gesture

the power to say no
the power to say yes
the power to speak
the power to move

the power to control
the power to shape
the power to tease
the power to torment

a power exchanged
a power entrusted
a power valued
a power relinquished

power is a heady drug
power is a liberator
power is a need expressed
power is a gift

once you taste it, you want more
once you give it, you want to give more

tasty
seductive
shiny
delicious
power.

take it

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 04:34:00 +0000

what do you
dream of
tonight

do you
need
your fix
your kink

need to be
pushed
need to be
pulled

do you
dream of
me
there

the feel
of my breath
on the
back
of your
neck

the touch
of my fingers
sliding
down
your back

the thud of
leather
crashing
down
your skin

the slice of
a cane
a hot
little red
line
of pain

a soft kiss
somewhere
unexpected

the pleasure
the pain
snapping your synapses
in a never-ending
addictive
loop

crave it
want it
beg for it

be pushed
be pulled

take that step
take it
take it all
with all the liquid need
coursing through your veins
coursing through your body
coursing through your mind

take it
and
be
taken.

***

the question in your eyes

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 23:52:00 +0000

your vulnerable eyes
look up at me
with such a universe
of need
in them

take me,
your eyes say
tease me
tie me up
take me to that place
of forgetfulness
of hope and desire
of belonging and ownership
of total control

your hungry eyes
hunger for my gaze
hunger for my voice
hunger for my touch
hunger for my possession of you

your shiny eyes
so very shiny
so shiny with your
bottomless need to submit
bottomless need to serve
bottomless need to please

I gaze into your submissive eyes
as I take your hand
slowly, surely, firmly in mine
and I gently gaze down at you
as I answer:
Yes.

Start with the rules, check out the schedule and subscribe to the RSS feed for updates!

~ This Weeks Top Three Posts ~

Crotch Topiary & Other Delights - I admit I started simple, I realised my teenage dream of having a Winona-inspired heart emblazoned on my mound. It was perfect. I used Contact paper to design my heart and just went to town pulling out every hair that was not covered.

In Defense of Exclusion - Sometimes it's nice to be with people who are like you. It's nice to be around people who get your kink, your fetish - to be somewhere that you don't have to explain it to.

The Boy At Summer Camp - It started with an email with the subject line butch at your service, and an offer for a blow job. And I thought, hm. Well, you know, I do like those. But Im not usually attracted to boys.

~ e[lust] Editress ~

Ask Lilly: "My sex toy stinks - what should I do?" - Would you put it in your mouth with that smell? Would you gag from the smell and taste? If yes, then why the hell put it in your vagina or ass??

crunk it
oh you crunk it

down to the dregs baby

you twisted the tension
right off the top
you zapped it

you are the tippiest top
you do that body bop
funk it, you do
crunk it some more, you do

slam it home

you bring the shine home

you dazzle the mirror balls

Fetish Party News from Skin Two‏

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Fri, 16 Sep 2011 18:26:00 +0000

One of the mailing lists I`m on is Skin Two Magazine. They have lots of tasty eye candy but also have great listings for events around the world.

So check out their latest list!

Kinky kisses,

Fetish Party News from Skin Two‏
Upcoming Events for Your Diary
from http://www.skintwo.co.uk/

Saturday September 17th, London: Club RUB
Back to sexy schooldays at Club RUB on Saturday, from 10:30 ‘til 4:30 am. London’s friendly fetish social/dance club, with dungeon, grope corridor, Singapore sling and harem den.Venue is Protocol (part of the FIRE complex), 6a South Lambeth Place, Vauxhall, London SW8 1SP
www.club-rub.com/index.php/events

Saturday September 24th, Dunstable: Skin Two at Arousal
We’ve been to Arousal, the friendly alternative sex club, a few times and we love it. The venue is famous for their swinger nights, and it’s perfect for BDSM/fetish too, with dungeon equipment, a dance area and lots of dark corners to get naughty in. So we’re having a party there on Saturday 24th, with entertainment, dominatrixes, DJ and more.
• Dungeon Mistress is the fabulous Ms Rebekka Raynor - see her here
• There’s an erotic cabaret by Paisley X, one of Europe's leading alternative performers. Born in Zimbabwe and trained in Paris at the famous Jacque Le Coq Theatre School and Annie Fratallini Circus School, Paisley X then studied mime, mask work and movement in London. Check the video of her striking performance at Chelsea Flower Show (!) on her website at www.paisleyx.org
• Traditional Japanese rope bondage is one of the most thoughtful and sophisticated ways to enjoy your sexuality with your partner and Ropselut and his Muse show you how very cool and attractive it can be. You only have to watch them to want to try it for yourself. See more of them here
• Eliza-Beth is one of the newest fetish models on the scene, having appeared on the fetish catwalk in Europe earlier this year at Fetish Evolution in Essen, Germany. Eliza-Beth has modelled for Ardita and Lady Oops, and now makes her UK performance debut with Skin Two at Arousal, with a fetish magic show. See Eliza-Beth here

You must bring your own booze, which keeps the cost right down. Don’t bring mixers though: these are sold at Arousal at only £7 per couple /£5 per single person – that’s for the whole night! Soft drinks are mostly only £1, apart from Red Bull at £2. So it’s really an economical night of fun.

Arousal is ideally situated off the main A5, north of Dunstable, only 15 minutes and 15 miles from M25-M1 junction. Find it on your satnav or Googlemaps at LU6 1LW. For full directions, print off the page here

There are several reasonably priced hotels nearby, or you are welcome to bring a sleeping bag and sleep at the club (which means the fun can last ’till morning.) Hours:10:00 pm ’til morning, with doors closed at 12:30. Fetish dress is encouraged, although all black is OK. (Black dress and high heels very much OK, in fact.)

Advance tickets to Skin Two at Arousal are only £15. (Admission on the door will be more.) Get your tickets now here Print out your receipt and bring it along on the night – that’s your entry ticket.

If you'd like to know more, just mail me at tim@skintwo.com

~ This Week’s Top Three Posts ~

Evidence To The Contrary – If anyone out there ever tries to tell you that internet relationships and friendships are not real, point them in my direction and I will happily set them straight on the matter because I have proof, in fact I am proof, that they know not what they speak of.

Open Marriages Don’t Work….- The only way I would agree with that statement is if you add: …..if you’re marriage already has problems. But even that part is not universally true.

Love in the Age of Broadband - What happened to our ability to keep it casual? Why would we attach ourselves to someone who is (often) hundreds, if not thousands, of miles away? And, more to the point, why would we attach ourselves to someone we have never met?

~ e[lust] Editress ~

Ask Lilly – Open and Polyamorous: Why be married at all?

My apologies, everyone, since submissions closed I’ve been 100% consumed with personal family tragedy (the flooding in Central PA) so I didn’t have time to read most of the entries this time or find a photo. The html code might contain a lot of blank lines for some of you, I didn’t have time to “clean” it up, either, just throw up what I have.

The Play Fight

a naked back

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Thu, 01 Sep 2011 19:47:00 +0000

the line of your back
curves underneath
my exploring fingertips

here, a blank canvas
to be painted on
that naked expanse
of vulnerable skin

what will I do with it
you whisper
with a half-held breath

my only answer
a laugh
soft and low
in your ear
it makes you shudder
in response
I can feel you
quivering
as I continue to explore
your back

my fingertips
barely barely barely
touch the skin
as I trail my fingertips
down that
squirming line of flesh
almost not touching
your sensitive skin
just enough
just enough
to ignite and awaken
your back’s very sensitive
nerve endings

down down down
my fingers go
oh so lightly brushing
the trail of skin
your uneven breath
and a soft moan
tell me just how much
this light torture
affects you, excites you

for a moment
I stop
and just stand there
behind you
you can feel the heat
of my body
disturbing the air
around you
almost close enough
to touch
but not quite

and then
I trace a circle
around that sensitive spot
there
just below
the back of your neck
claiming the mark
tattooed there
the mark of infinity
and infinite possibilities
just as
in this moment
there are infinite possibilities
for what I may
choose to do
with that naked canvas
of your back

you want to know
oh you want to know
so badly
I can feel just how much
you crave to know
what I will do

but a wicked smile
curves my lips
as I whisper
“you’ll find out”

ah but only when
I am ready
to reveal my plans

for now
you remain
standing
facing against the wall
hands above your head
legs spread wide
posed there for
my meticulous & careful inspection
posed for my pleasure

oh yes
you’ll find out

only when I decide
to claim that canvas
for my
own.

sweet caramel

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Sun, 28 Aug 2011 18:54:00 +0000

she had
the creamiest skin
the colour of mocha caramel
such tasty skin

she looked at me
with those liquid dark eyes
and shyly asked
“May i…?”

I looked back at her
with a knowing smile
as I replied
“yes you may”

oh yes
you may
and may do
many other wonderful things….

say it

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Sat, 20 Aug 2011 18:08:00 +0000

say it
say what you mean

your face
tells the untold story
writ large
on your unguarded expression

your eyes shine
with a profound need
your body shivers
with an aching desire
your hands tremble
with endless unexpressed emotion

you try to look away
but you can`t
you just sit there
frozen
entranced
so vulnerable
so helpless

say it

you know you want it
you know you crave it
you know you need it

say it

submit
give it all up
say what is still unspoken

say it
say please.

scent

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Thu, 18 Aug 2011 15:12:00 +0000

your fragrance
on the wind
teases my senses

in my mind
i imagine
tasting it
off your skin.

My Enigmatic Love Affair with The Phantom of The Opera: From Broadway to Fantasia

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Tue, 09 Aug 2011 21:45:00 +0000

Welcome to my 3D review of The Phantom of The Opera!

It’s 3D not because you have to wear funny glasses to read it (but go ahead and put them on if you wish. I promise not to laugh. Too much. )

It’s 3D because I will be taking into 3 different dimensions:
• The Phantom of The Opera, the film, show, and work of art
• The BDSM undertones of the story (and there are many)
• My own personal connection to The Phantom,
which has spanned over a decade.

Time:
Modern Day, a few days back, Montreal.

The scene was the magnificent setting of Place des Arts. In a special partnership between The Fantasia International Film Festival & the Cinémathèque québecoise, a special pristine print of Rupert Julian’s The Phantom of the Opera (1925/29), was shown & accompanied by a 30 person orchestra directed by Gabriel Thibaudeau. Gabriel Thibaudeau, composer, conductor, and pianist for the Cinémathèque québécoise, created a glorious, thunderously compelling musical accompaniment to this beautiful classic silent film.

I had won two tickets to see this special version of The Phantom of The Opera and I was accompanied by my friend, the lovely LustyLuscious. I was very happy to have such good company for this Fantasia event and happy to have a fellow kinkster share my Phantom experience, for the first time. Particularly since my own journey with The Phantom over the years has been a solitary one. More about that later.

The fantastic music Thibaudeau created turned this cinematic event into an unforgettable night. The crowd jumped to their feet in unending applause for his wonderful achievement, and I was among the packed crowd of thrilled Fantasia movie goers. He captured the signature organ accent for the movie, along with a host of perfectly suited musical accents to accentuate the silent film’s dramatic moments.

As for the film itself, the highlight of the film was the creative genius of Lon Chaney’s acting. Yes, he did not disappoint with one of his very original & creative monstrous physical disguises as The Phantom, but his acting also featured such a heart-breaking humanity from a monster who loved and craved love so very much.

Mary Philbin, played a wonderfully over the top portrayal of The Phantom’s muse, Christine Daae. To my eyes, she physically resembled Celine Dion a little, and I could picture her thumping her chest in true Celine fashion as well. lol

Like most classic silent films, the film had many comic highlights. Such as the lurking, looming fez-wearing Inspector Ledoux, of the Paris Secret Police. Aren’t the Secret Police supposed to be, well secret and hide in the shadows? If you want to blend into the shadows, maybe you shouldn’t wear a fez so that you stick out from the crowd.

And a particularly hilarious moment was when Ledoux led Christine’s lover, the Vicomte de Chagny into the secret tunnels of the opera house, to save Christine from the Phantom’s grasp. Ledoux told Chagny they must hold a hand above their heads to ward against the Phantom’s noose, as he was wont to strangle those who opposed him. So the two of them crept along with a hand above their heads, which looked so much like the classic Bollywood “screwing in the lighbulb” move. Rather appropriate since The Phantom’s rope strangling was declared to be Indian. “Beware The Punjab Lasso!” we were told. I got a furious attack of the giggles suddenly, when I picture the silent film turning into a Bollywood spectacle all of a sudden. Too funny.

Altogether, this cinematic Phantom event was a triumphant success, for the whole Fantasia crowd, and for me, on a personal level.

For me, this was the second time I saw The Phantom immortalized on the big screen.

Fact is, I am quite a Phantom fan, and I have followed The Phantom of The Opera for a long, long time.

Time:
Flash-back to the end of 1997, Montreal.

After years of BDSM fantasizing, in 1997 I finally found someone to play with in real-time and real life. My Master. My very own Phantom.

One day, I was told to find and study the soundtrack to Webber’s Phantom of The Opera. Just the music. I was told to pay particular attention to the words of the songs, and the message of the music itself, and in particular told to study The Music of the Night. This soundtrack to the Broadway version was then used in my training and my lessons, as a submissive. I became my Master’s muse and his discovery. He discovered that I had a talent, not for singing like, Christine Daae, but for writing. My Master was the one who first encouraged me to write in the BDSM vein. For him, I composed stories and poetry. And I kept a journal for my journey with him, for his amusement and entertainment. My very first BDSM blog!

When I went to choose a soundtrack to Webber’s Phantom of The Opera to use, I did some research before I chose a version. I picked the version that was most acclaimed by critics, and what was the best one to my ear. It featured Michael Crawford and a very young Sarah Brightman. To my ear, Michael Crawford’s rendition of The Phantom was the most talented. His voice, when speaking or singing as The Phantom, was a gloriously full-bodied elegant and seductive one. I loved listening to him.

And as for Sarah Brightman, well…I felt a connection to her in so many ways. First of all, she was Andrew Lloyd Webber’s muse and discovery. He created The Phantom as a vehicle to feature her vocal talent. She was a young ingénue, who played a young ingénue. You can see so many parallels in the relationship between Andrew Lloyd Webber & Sarah Brightman, and The Phantom with Christine Daae.

And my own relationship with my Master mirrored that Creator/muse relationship pattern as well.

Time:
Flash-forward to some time after, the venue is New York and Broadway.

One day, I found myself in a weekend away in New York, with friends. Webber’s Phantom of The Opera was at the end of its run and I was bound & determined to see this story live, that had meant so much to me on my BDSM journey.

One of my friends & I had the incredible luck to nab 2 most excellent and reasonably priced tickets to this immortal Broadway classic. The only problem was that the seats were miles apart, with the whole theatre between us. But we agreed and went to the show.

In a sea of strangers in New York, I was bowled over by the gorgeous storm of The Phantom brought to life on the Broadway stage. And as I watched, I was bowled over by an unexpected storm of emotions that the show brought out of me. I sat there with tears tracking down my face as I thought of my own Phantom and wished with all my heart I could share this moment with him. I was incredibly happy and sad at the same time. It was an unforgettable moment in my life and BDSM journey.

Time:
Flash-forward to 2004, Montreal.

Time for me to finally see The Phantom on the big screen. I eagerly attended a showing of The Phantom of The Opera featuring the talents of Gerard Butler. The critics were not kind. They blasted Butler for his less than stellar singing talent. But I thought that was highly unfair. Of course one knew he was no Michael Crawford. But he did a very good job of acting as The Phantom, illustrating the Phantom’s heartbreak quite well. And well the added bonus was that Gerard Butler is a gorgeous man. So he played quite a Sexy Beast, I thought. I was content with my Phantom film fix.

The Phantom & The BDSM

Phantom of The Opera is indeed a twist on the classic Beauty and The Beast scenario. Alas, the beauty does not choose beast in the end, but chooses her other lover. Of course I always wished the beauty would choose the poor, yearning beast.

You can see so many BDSM elements in the story line. We have the Master and the one who serves his will. The Phantom is the Master of his domain, the Paris Opera House. Those who oppose him are swiftly punished. We even have dungeons at the bottom of the Opera House, and a torture room, in the room of mirrors that we see in the Lon Chaney silent film version. I couldn’t help but notice all the rope lying around in this movie version as well. And there are lots & lots of role-playing in the story, since the story features actors and acting of roles.

For myself, there is even an Angel in the story. The Angel of Music. See Andrew Lloyd Webber’s version. And my Master is the first one to call me Angel. You can read about the roots of my name here.

As for my Master being my Phantom. Ah well. You will find very true traces of my Master in this blog. So he is a Phantom here as well, of sorts.

And all that is about why I love and will always love The Phantom of The Opera.

Kinky kisses,
Angel :)

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Thu, 04 Aug 2011 19:06:00 +0000

you dream of it
of being owned
possessed
the devastating totality of it
the complete craving to give all of yourself

sometimes at night
your mind body and soul stir restlessly
with this need to be owned
you wonder and hope it can be true
beyond your deepest darkest roughest most sublime fantasies

some days
you want to be owned so much
You cry with the unfulfilled need that threatens to swamp
all of your feelings thoughts and sensations

oh you so want it to be true
oh you so want it to come true

you want that chance to fly
with ultimate trust
to be cradled in the Other’s arms
knowing they will
always be there to catch you
always be there to push you
always be there to nurture you
always be there to appreciate your gift

you crave
The One
The Master The Mistress
The Owner

who will make you shine
who will respect you and your gift
who will bring you to heights
you never dreamed possible

you dream of being owned
by
Me.

bittersweet

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Sat, 30 Jul 2011 19:03:00 +0000

she was sweet and silky
he was angry heat

for one moment
they slammed together

he drank from her lips
until she desperately plunged up for air

but she wanted more
and she went back for more

she liked it
when he hurt her
he gave her that dizzy taste
of that good good deep pain
made her body curve up
in one taut bow
while he pushed her and pushed and pushed her
and finally
he let her have her release
and she floated away
up away from him
while still in his arms

he pulled her hair back tight
away from her face
as he stared down into her eyes
his unreadable eyes
his silent mouth
as tears tracked their way
down her face
and she sobbed with her endless need
she couldn’t help it
she found herself washed away in a river of desire and pain
until the waters mixed so much she didn’t know
which was the pain and which was the desire any more
but at that point
she didn’t care any more
she just wanted it
she just needed it
she just wanted more of that heady fix

he made her beg
again and again and again
and still he wasn’t satisfied
his will was relentless
crushing her body crushing her spirit
shaping her into something brand new
with his cruel knowing hands
he knew what she really wanted
and he gave it to her
even when she protested it was too much
she couldn’t take feeling so much
she couldn’t take shaking so much with her need

through the night they continued
until they were drenched with sweat and boneless

finally he slapped her
as she came
and then
he smiled
as he whispered
my love my love my love
and finally
let himself go
as well.

What makes me a woman? - It’s a stumper, this question. There must be something that makes me a woman. Something more than how I am perceived by others as I walk down the street. But what is the answer?

Baggage: An Inventory - Everyone brings bags with them. My goal is to carry my own bags. I’ll let people help me shed them, but I will never let them carry them. Those bags are my own to, well, own.

There's pain and then there's pain (and then there's pain) -Part of what I crave in the second type of pain is the selfish sadism of the partner who continues despite my pleas. He does it because it arouses him, and he does it because I'll endure it for him.

What Is Gender? - Playing with dolls and preferring the color pink doesn’t make you a girl anymore than chewing on a bone makes you my dog.

Sex Toys: Single or Partnered, there is no shame in owning them - There’s no fucking shame in owning your sexuality, in taking control of your own damn orgasm. Can you PREFER human contact and partnered sex to sex toys? Sure. You can prefer whatever the fuck you want. But don’t insinuate to me that owning a lot of sex toys is somehow bad or shameful.

slick

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 22:39:00 +0000

slick flesh
the heavy heat
turned them
slippery with need

they licked
the salt
off each other’s bodies
chased by a body shot
of tequila
or two

it was
thirty two freaking degrees
celsius
hotter than hell
as they explored
the musky swamp
of their desires

hellish pain
hellish pleasure
they tasted it all
pushing past
the sweat the salt
playing in slow motion
leaving a trail of toys
scattered here and there
a golden peacock feather
a velvety black flogger
and a few things
that pinched and cut

until the musky heat
overcame them
and they headed
in search of coolness

the blessed cold shock
of the shower
drenched them
revived them in cool relief

one voice said
is this what you want
this
and this
and this

each word punctuated
by the slap of flesh
rhythmic thuds
as one hand
braced against
the wet gleaming tiles
and one hand
snarled inside
a wet mane of hair
pulled tight

and one voice said
more
more
more

eventually
they emerged
naked wet flesh
still dripping

they made it to the bed
where they collapsed
limbs carelessly entwined
around each other
drowsing in the heat
with an occasional
pinch of a nipple
and lazy spank
of an already rosy cheek

the humid mugginess
in the air
kissed them to sleep
where they dreamed
their bodies still
affectionally wrapped
around each other

they fell asleep,
still slick.

the devil you know

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 22:25:00 +0000

take me to heaven
take me to hell
it doesn’t matter where

you turn my bones
to water
you turn my flesh
to mud

i want to get
dirty with you
bring me down down down
deep
down to my knees
bring me up up up
to that
floating cloud
of your high

twist me turn me
it’s all
junk and treasure
the merry go round
of your will
spins me out
spins me where
you care to go

oh you shine
wicked and wet
you draw the moonlight
into the dark heart
of your midnight soul

*sympathy for the devil
you laugh
as the music plays
you just know
the slip and slide
of your magic hands
will get you in
anywhere

crazy good
crazy bad
it don’t make a difference
you and your
addictive touch
oh don’t do that
or that
or that
too late
you’re like a
madness in the blood
you percolate
all my senses

you don’t rhyme
you don’t reason
you don’t give a damn
you just shrug
with a wink
slip back into
the night

leaving that fleeting taste
of heaven
and hell
behind

crazy fool
come back

it’s late
it’s too late

you go back
to the shadows
you came from.

he said that to me
and as I looked at him
i found myself

and the Abyss
stared back at me

ever so quietly
and gently
i replied:
No.

An Enigmatically Devious Sinematic Trip: Mascara, Popcorn & Sinema Saliba

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 00:52:00 +0000

It’s such a delicious word: devious.

And devious indeed is the evil mastermind talent of Matthew Saliba, a hot upcoming film director of a chockfull of sado-erotic film horrors.

Last night I had the pleasure of viewing a retrospective of six of Saliba’s films, which were part of the brand-spanking new Mascara & Popcorn Film Festival, a unique, experimental, alternative film festival and film happening in the Montreal area.

I was delighted to meet both Matthew Saliba and Florence T., one of Mascara & Popcorn’s founders and bright lights.

It’s quite a rare treat to see kinky films on the big screen in town and I was really looking forward to seeing not one but six kinky wonders in a row at the quirky, funky fun Mainline Theatre venue.

Expectations? I had none. But even so I was surprised where this sinematic experience brought me, because of the yes – devious - twists and turns of these Saliba gleefully-wicked creations.

I found myself viewing the films with a kind of double perspective: from the perspective of the long-time film aficionado who appreciated the different hommages to genres in Saliba’s films, and also from the kinkster perspective, of one who was evaluating the BDSM content of each film. I was happily satisfied on both levels and found myself craving more. More, more more, like the refrain from the Rocky Horror experience.

1. THE MANIPULATOR AND THE SUBSERVIENT (2003) - 11 mins

Saliba’s first film and first film of the night offered an interesting byplay and switching of the roles of dominant and submissive roles. I thoroughly enjoyed the acting talents of the two older actors, who would show up in more of Saliba’s films.

2. PANDORA'S PARADOX (2004) - 24 mins

I found PANDORA'S PARADOX to be the most disturbing of Saliba’s films. The irony of it was that I found the two most BDSM scenes, strange takes on electro/breath play and puppy play, to be the most normal parts of the films, the parts I could most easily relate to. In those scenes Saliba took some basic BDSM elements and took them to some absurd universe that was kind of fun to visit. :) And I wondered just where did he find that cone-like device? lol

Why I was so disturbed was actually through the B Movie horror element of these bizarre big/small thumbs slash penis-like alien creatures. The Big Thumb’s lusty cries and visual weirdness made me squeamish. Yes, this enigmatically kinky blogger with deep sadomasochistic tendencies, felt queasy from looking at and hearing This Thing. It was just so….squirmy.

My odd squeamishness is why although I enjoyed David Cronenberg’s Scanners, I would never enjoy watching his Naked Lunch.

Which is not to say the alien thumb/penis thing was not well-done. It was and I am sure horror film buffs would appreciate it, in all its gory splendor.

3. SHE WAS ASKING FOR IT (2007) - 12 mins

It was a true shame that there were technical difficulties with the showing of SHE WAS ASKING FOR IT that brought the film to an early end.

The still photography was visually stunning, with a gorgeous treatment of light and atmosphere. Each shot perfectly framed eye candy that left me craving more.

And with this film we were firmly and beautifully in the deep lovely heart of BDSM territory and it made my kinky heart sing. I wanted to see the full story unfold, even with being told the end by Saliba when they had to stop the film. Perhaps another time.

4. VAMPYROS LESBOS (2008) - 20 mins

VAMPYROS LESBOS made me flash back to a really fun B (well more like F) Vampire film festival at the Cinema du Parc, that I had seen years ago. The films were ultra-cheesy 70s vampire flicks that had the audience roaring with laughter. When Saliba explained that the inspiration for his film came from a film with the same name from the 70s, I thought that perhaps that film came from the same school of thought.

VAMPYROS LESBOS was fun. Sensual naked vampire lesbians and a wonderfully wicked revenge. Who could ask for more? 

5. DARK LOTUS (2009) - 14 mins

DARK LOTUS (2009) was pure stylistic genius. Every artistic element was exquisitely captured – hair, makeup, photography, fashion, light, and evocative expression.

The mobsters in it reminded me of the mobsters in Muholland Drive, not only my all-time favorite David Lynch movie but perhaps one of my all-time favorite movies of all-time. Period.

Oh and there was an extra special treat for Montrealers. The beautiful spiderweb ropework done by the very talented Dunter, rope rigger extraordinaire, who is very well known in our local BDSM scene. I’ve always wanted to attend one of his rope workshops. To see the darkly beautiful Lotus (the sublime Black Widow) crawling across that beautiful rope spiderweb was enchanting.

6. AMY'S IN THE ATTIC (2011) - 23 mins

And then there was the last dark treat of the night: AMY'S IN THE ATTIC, Saliba’s first film with dialogue. Done in that wonderful Italian Cinema Exploitation style, that film genre that is so delightfully schlocky and hilarious, it was really groovy, baby!

They say beware what you wish for because the gods may punish you by making your wish come true. And so Amy found out the hard way. Such tasty punishment for the viewers, though!

Oh and the “Alucard”, “Dracula” backwards, for the name of the villain of the piece. That was a nice touch.

All in all, a tasty film treat, was this Mascara & Popcorn and Saliba retrospective combo.

My final impression was that Matthew Saliba is both a talented actor and director and I will be happy to look out for his future film projects.

A great double Q & A session rounded off a nice kinky night.

freaks

we are all freaks
getting our freak on
whatever groove
whatever flavour
whatever kink
we are what we are

taste it
love to it
move to it

there is no right or wrong
there is no up or down
there is just what was meant to be
there is just what we were meant to see

the slick the rubbery the decadent
whatever and wherever it takes you
it’s all good
it’s all bad
and it’s you and me and everyone
daring to try
daring to flash
daring to differ
daring to slip and slide into the dark side and then some

we are all freaks
born this way.

Sometimes when I write, I have a soundtrack playing inside or outside my head.

her story

noreply@blogger.com (Angel) — Tue, 29 Mar 2011 05:28:00 +0000

strong and vulnerable
lilith and eve
her fragility
called to me

she had a story
as everyone has a story

so exotic yet familiar

the hills and valleys
the rock and the hard place
scylla and charybdis
the highs and the lows
the flavours and the spices
the loves won and the loves lost
the wisdom gained and the lessons learned

her tale slowly unfurled
exquisitely rich
brightly delicate
grounded and earthy

and i listened,
rapt.
