| Bottom Line: |
This site is definitely NOT for the faint-hearted for three reasons: first, this is probably among the most intense BDSM sites available today, second, the price has to make it one of the most expensive porn memberships today, and third, some of the newest scenes come in at over 3GB in size.
If you like BDSM and are familiar with the Kink.com sites, then think of this as a mashup of Device Bondage and Sex and Submission with the ‘nasty’ factor turned up. The site uses a lot of innovative bondage tools and devices, many of which appear to be made rather than bought. Each scene is between 30 minutes and an hour long and has several ‘chapters’ where the bondage is changed. (Like other BDSM sites, the scenes also include an interview where the model makes it clear that she consents and can stop the scene.) Most of the scenes occur indoors in a dungeon setting, though there are also some scenes shot outdoors. Production values are very good. Many, but still a minority of the scenes, feature some kind of sex act, either oral or vaginal. There is some anal play, but I’ve yet to find a scene with anal intercourse. Since the site is about BDSM I accept that the sex is secondary.
The site has a mix of mainstream models who dabble in fetish stuff (Sasha Knox and Hailey Young, for example) and models who specialize in fetish scenes (Wenona, for example). The models are all under 25, most are petite and with very few exceptions all are Caucasian. One good sign as to how the site treats the models is that there are several who make repeat visits to get abused.
The site currently has 290 scenes available with one new scene being added weekly. As should be expected, the oldest scenes (uploaded in 2006) don’t have the same video quality as the newer scenes. Most scenes have download options for resolution and a few offer different file types too. The most common file type is mp4 though a lot of the older files that say they’re mp4 come in as .rm. The newest uploads have two options for resolutions. I went with the highest which is 1280x720, 7500kb/s and 23fps. An issue that many may have is the file size, which with some of the newer uploads can exceed 3GB. That’s a lot of data if your ISP imposes a limit. The lower resolution is intended for mobile devices and comes in at 480x270, 1400kb/s and 23fps. The obvious problem with this is that there is a wide chasm between the two sizes that really should be bridged with a third option.
Photos are also available as zips but not as singles. New photos are 1200x785 while the older ones are obviously smaller.
Site layout is simple but effective. It looks and functions a lot like a Kink.com site if you’re familiar with them. You can either have a ‘full’ or ‘brief’ view of the scenes on the page and selecting a scene opens a page where you can stream or download the scene and download the photos. There is also a fairly detailed description of each scene which is useful.
The site allows download managers and doesn’t appear to have any download limits. Download speeds were good.
Logging in requires the username and password be entered each time as well as a two-word captcha. I found one of those ‘words’ was always easy to read, but the second was much more difficult and often caused me to fail to enter it properly. When that happens you go back for a second try but you need to enter your username and password again.
The 800lb gorilla in the room is whether the site is worth the $65 price. Part of me says that it is because the production costs here have to be much higher than a more usual hardcore site. With the more mainstream site you hire a woman and a man and pull out an old leather couch and you can make a porno. No so here. I’m guessing that the models here get paid a premium to do this work and the bondage equipment can't be cheap to buy or make. So in that sense, it might be worth the exceptionally high price. Arguing against the high price is that other BDSM sites must have similar costs and can manage a more reasonable price. Sites like Kink probably have better economies of scale, but this site can’t justify a price that’s double what the competitors are charging. Also, this site has some ‘sister’ sites (Sexually Broken, for example) which appear to use many of the same models, sets and equipment but charge less than half what this site charges.
I know this is a personal thing for me that others don’t share, and I didn’t include this as a con or include it in the score, but I really wish fetish sites put up more behind-the-scenes videos. With so many of the bondage setups used on this site being innovative I’d like to see some of the technical bits of getting the model into them.
If you’re into BDSM that pushes the limits and can justify spending the money, this is site that is worth a visit. With the price as high as it is though, this won’t be a site that I join once in a while to get updates. |

| Pros: |
Extreme site with various types of bondage and stimulation of models provided. Most models are very attractive, and some moderately attractive, like Melody who is very enjoyable to watch when stimulated. Different forms of punishment and forced orgasms are very entertaining. Updates do come once a week, and some models such as Cherry Torn, Calico and Pinky have several shoots. Most recent shoot of Wenona is a keeper.
Dowload speeds are excellent and it's possible to load multiple clips at the same time to a PC or iPod. Photography is okay. |
| Cons: |
Expensive at $35.00 per month. Navigation can be a problem. No way to gain direct access to a particular model other than scrolling through the different shoots. Lighting in some scenes is dark and could be improved. No bonus sites or materials. A discount to one of their other sites like Infernal Restraints would be worthwhile, or at least the ability to purchase individual clips like Kink.com is currently doing. They should consider doing some electrical stimulation such as on the nipples and labia as is done on other BDSM site that use electricity.
Photos are just okay, with too many of them shot at bad angles, and some missing the best part of the model's predicament. |
| Bottom Line: |
Overall, a very good site that needs to grow and provide bonus materials. Cost is high, and for that amount of money, a few extras would be welcome.
For the connoisseur of BDSM, this is a site worth looking at. Some of the scenes, such as with Mei, Kali, Anna Rose and a few others are excellent and well worth dowloading and keeping. Older materials include such well known models as Shannon Kelly, Kitty Langdon and Jade Marxx, to name but a few. Variety of bondage positions, including anal and double penetration along with electrified clit stimulators is extensive.
Hardtied might provide, as a bonus, some of their older clips from the Insex Archives. Then this would be a terrific site. |
