Fetishism in B films

[Chopper2]

Anyone out there seen many b movies where fetish-like behavior was the central themse of the story line? The only movies that come to my mind at the moment are Private Parts (not the howard staern piece of crap but the movie directed by the guy who also did Eating Rauol) & the 2 kinky characters in Motel Hell.
 note* this involves all and any fetish behavior, not just S & M.

How in the world can you forget all the kinky/fetish behavior in that one? :-)

This British comedy had a young man infiltrating the BDSM scene for some stuffy group of people. Had funny moments and downright weird ones as well.

The title escapes me, but - a biker flick with Willem Dafoe, lots of chrome, leather and male bikers, in leather, with lot of chrome.

Du'oh!!! yes, that one had some funny scenes.

[Chopper]

i forgot the Lair and the White Worm too, although it's not really based on fetishism it does have some wierd scenes involving it, either that or i was imagining them haha!

Add to the list "Midnight Heart", a really oppressive thriller starring Jennifer Jason Leigh, which features some SM stuff, and almost every film Brian Yuzna has been involved in. That man is a freak if you ask me.

[Chopper]

HAHA! Yuzna definitely enjoys dabbling a little in the kinky underworld. Didn't he make another film recently, some HP Lovecraft thing? Unless if I'm thinking of someone else.

[Neville]

Well, his last film is "Beyond Re-animator", which is loosely, loosely based in some short stories Lovecraft wrote at the beginning of his career. It has some sleazy touches, but it is quite tame compared to other things he's made. I remember having a quite good time with it, and so did the people in the states who were lucky enough to catch one of the previews. Dig out in the older messages if you are interested, the DVD should appear soon.

Fortunately or unfortunately, you were not imagining things. The director, Ken Russell, does manage to get his interest in snakes into the film. Which can also be seen in the directors "Tommy" and "Gothic."

Whether it is happenstance or deliberate, "Lair of the White Worm" is a fetish lovers delight. If you have a fetish, it is probably on display in the film, as alomst 80 different fetishes can be seen in the film. As everything from airplanes to wrists are covered.

Of course, there is also Ed Wood. Not his "Plan 9 from Outer Space," but his semi-autobiographical "Glen or Glenda," where he gets in his interest in angora sweaters.

[Chopper2]

Ha! interesting, i didn't know that was the same director as gothic, thanks for the info. Yeah Ed was one kinky guy and even though he was a horrible filmmaker you can't help but respect him for the fact he was his own individual.
