"First viewing - Nov. 13th Apparently I need to stop trying to watch atmospheric horror at night, even though it's best suited to that time of day. Once again I found myself struggling to stay awake through one of these films. I liked the way it began and really dug the ending, but found it to be kind of a bore to travel between those points. Oh the film looks great at times, and the whole thing is a Mood, but I found spending so much time with these joyless characters rather dull. Maybe I shoul"

"The title is the Whip and the Body, so there is a clue about what to expect. Well, there is more than BDSM, but not much more. Before he was Scaramanga, Christopher Lee starred in this fucked up movie as Kurt - the dude with the whip. A lot of the movie is spent just waiting for something to happen. Despite the frequent boredoom, this film is one of the best BDSM stories ever!"
