MVD! I'm a huge horror movie fanatic -- a good horror movie really stimulates the senses, makes you uncomfortable, and of course, scares you! Here are some of my recommendations in no particular order. These will mostly be fairly modern horror films as I'm sure you've already seen the classics like The Shining, The Thing, Halloween, Alien, ect. Hereditary (2018) - After the family matriarch passes away, disturbing and tragic events plague the family that unveils the family's mysterious ancestry. I would say this is my generation's Exorcist or Rosemary's Baby in the sense that it heavily borrows from those two films right down to the final scene. Combines a lot of tension and imagery with the cinematography to really make it an immersive film. It's both hard to watch and impossible to look away from. The spectrum of emotions range from sorrow, utter helplessness, and complete terror. Picks at the human psyche in all the right ways while also examining familial relationships in a deeper level. It Follows (2014) - The premise is really simple - some thing follows you. I mean it literally walks towards you wherever you are and it will not stop, and if it catches you, you'll die in a horrific manner. You can't kill it, it takes on different forms, it's semi-intelligent, oh, and I forgot to mention, the curse is passed on through sexual encounters. It's an indie film with a fairly slow pace with almost 0 special effects. Borrows heavily from 70s/80s horror films. I thought the first half was much stronger than the latter half, but I think it's a much watch for horror fans. Ready or Not (2019) - I came into the theater with very low expectations, but it pleasantly surprised me with how much fun I had watching it. If you liked Cabin in the Woods you'll absolutely love this as it also is a satirical take on horror films with certain elements being much more fleshed out. It's pretty much a dark comedy hide and seek where a newly wed bride has to partake in her new family's strange, age old tradition. The catch? If they find you, they'll kill you. Very morbid, very suspenseful, funny, with great dialogue and characters. I think you'll love the lead actress and part of the fun is you find yourself really rooting for her to survive. Brings out the childish sense of fear and anticipation you got from playing hide and seek when you were younger and amplifies it times 10. But if you're turned off by gross exaggeration of violence, this might not be the movie for you. Midsommar (2019) - From IMDB - "A couple travels to Sweden to visit a rural hometown's fabled mid-summer festival. What begins as an idyllic retreat quickly devolves into an increasingly violent and bizarre competition at the hands of a pagan cult." The director does an incredible job of making you feel profound despair and gut-wrenching grief. If you love good cinematography in horror films, this is the film for you. The visuals are gorgeous, grotesque, but absolutely beautiful at the same time with the ambient sounds just adding to it. Slow, methodical, and eerie. Train to Busan (2016) - By Korean director Sang-Ho Yeon. A father and a daughter boards KTX, which is a fast train that will bring them from Seoul to Busan. During their trip, an apocalypse begins, and most of the population become zombies. Let me say that I'm not particularly a fan of the zombie/apocalypse genre and most films in that genre turn me off. But this one was different in the sense that the character development of someone who is in the middle of an active zombie apocalypse felt genuine and tense. The fact that the breakout happens in a claustrophobic place like a train gives it the extra tension and the survival instincts of the characters feel very real. A strong point of this movie is that the juxtaposition of a fast moving train with the outbreak spreading from car to car made the action scenes that much more impactful. A criticism I have for the film is that many of the plot points are predictable. Raw (2016) - A fairly recent French-Belgian horror-drama movie. I believe an alternative title is Grave. I was waiting for this movie to come out since it's announcement and my expectations were generally met! I might have been a little too hyped as the ending felt a little weak. Pretty much follows a young vegetarian's first year at veterinary school when she tastes meat for the first time and develops a craving for flesh. Pacing is great, beautiful cinematography, and plenty of mayhem (and sex, which is very crucial to the symbolism of the movie) before any sort of cannibalism arises. Might be the wicked French humor at play here. The over-the-top blend of eroticism/cannibalism coupled with its aggressive female sexuality is bold, funny, and terrifying. Great pacing, beautiful cinematography, and STRONG FEMALE EMPOWERMENT ALL AROUND. "Fuck yeah" for the first amazing cannibalism movie in a long time. These are just films off the top of my head in recent memory -- Hope you enjoy any or all of these films. Do let me know if you'd like more recommendations! -D

These ones in recent memory, but the mouth stones/trash necklace is probably my favorite just cause I’m in the dental field and how accurate it is Lol

oh I love this guy! I always try to guess which w o r d he uses as his caption, but I get it wrong every time ha

Indoor rock climbing is a lot of fun, Mistress Kang. Steep Rock Bouldering and Brooklyn Boulders are both great gyms. Then again, Lilbitchbobby's suggestion of Mohegan/Foxwoods paints a fun little picture in my head. Fortress ladies taking over a casino!

Not necessarily shiny, but Catwoman definitely contributed to my love for tight fitting clothing that really hugs the skin and conforms to the body's movements. My friend sometimes wears these BlackMilk leggings whenever we do anything exercise-y. It drives me nuts and she knows it. It's probably the softest/silkiest/smoothest thing I've ever touched, and the sheer panels just add an extra level of sexiness. https://blackmilkclothing.com/shop/bottom/leggings/sheer-spliced-ninja-pants

Over = no cats Under = has cats

Mr. Fong's! cool hidden gem at the end of Chinatown with a good ambience and interesting Chinese-inspired cocktails.

I've only read snippets here and there of the first book back in high school, so I don't have anything positive or negative to say about the content of the books/films themselves. But I will say that 50 Shades made BDSM "erotica" widely available and relatively socially acceptable for women, in an era where it's still often frowned upon for women to enjoy BDSM, porn, or (gasp!) masturbation. For someone who had never delved into those things before, having a popular book series about it, available for purchase at a grocery store was probably a thrill. With the release of the most recent sequel back in February, I was surprised to see sooo many of my girl friends casually opening up about their secret/repressed kinks, fetishes, and fantasies. That in turn made me feel comfortable and confident in sharing my own experiences, and I just think that kind of exchange is very healthy for this scene. I know this isn't exactly what you asked, but it's something positive I can say about the franchise. And off-topic but since we're talking about 50 Shades, wanted to share the 50 Shades of Grey Text Generator http://www.xwray.com/fiftyshades/ Apparently someone wanted to prove that the books were so basic that a computer could write it, Lol. Pure erotica.

I LOVE sensory deprivation. It really goes hand in hand with tickle torture and really intensifies everything. It's funny, a woman I've been playing with isn't ticklish at all normally -- even when she's tied down. But as soon as I put on a blindfold or gag she absolutely loses it. It's like you said, something about losing one of your senses (or the ability to speak) induces total vulnerability and helplessness in the victim. My most intense experience with this play was probably a few weeks ago when said friend saran wrapped my entire body to a chair for some heavy T&D. Layers upon layers of saran wrap, each limb individually wrapped underneath the main wrap, with only my cock and balls exposed and a small opening for me to breathe. Couldn't see, couldn't speak, and I had one of those noise-cancelling ear buds on so it was like being in a cocoon in deafening silence. It's hard to articulate the emotions I felt then, but It was a vicious cycle of bringing me to the point of orgasm and taking the pleasure away. And since the sense of touch was all I had left, it was heightened to the max and with the denial I felt a sensation of.. nothingness.. like pitch black-abyss-nothing sorta deal. Sometimes she'd come back after a few seconds, sometimes after a few minutes, and I think the longest was close to half an hour. I've attached a (guest forum friendly) photo of that ordeal. On a side note, at the Fortress I noticed that I can handle corporal a lot better if sensory deprivation is involved, which is weird because I figured it would just heighten the sensation of pain.

So much respect for you, Mistress Rey -- like questionmarks said, this is nothing but inspiring and awe-inducing. I'm sure you'll have a great time. That being said.. Rey and Von Dietz together in Tokyo.. what a duo!

Hahaha a double-domme voodoo doll role play immediately came to mind. One Mistress shaves off a section of hair on the doll and oh look! what's happening to the submissive's hair?!

1) I'd love to play in a scene centered around my Mistress leaving marks all over my body via scratching/biting/heavy corporal/ect. 2) Get more into role-playing and come up with scenarios that are both hot and exciting to get into. 3) This one's been on my mind for some time now, and I'm not sure why, but I'd like a session one day to leave me completely broken by the end both physically and mentally -- maybe even to the point of tears. The closest I've gotten to this point was when I sessioned with Mistress Von Dietz back in November. Through a combination of humiliation/degradation/strap-on play, I became just about incoherent towards the end and my actions became almost primal-like, with a sole instinctive desire to submit/please her. I want to experience that again but be pushed even further! I don't think we've heard yours yet, M. Shankar

M. Shankar that's such a hot predicament!! I'd love to play the role of that altar boy, half conscious on the ground in the steel room from drinking all of the communion wine lmao! If you ever plan to visit, definitely let me know -- I'll give you a list of the sweet spots to hit up from a local's perspective

Came across these pictures of Natalie Dormer and Gwendoline Christie and they reminded me of this thread

Margot Robbie + Emma Stone Also she's an "Instagram model" so she probably doesn't qualify as a celebrity but omg I would love to see Sommer Ray as a young domme! https://www.instagram.com/sommerray/?hl=en

Lol I really like that pic M. Katz. I don't have anything Kink/BDSM oriented planned for the holidays. I'll be in Colorado for a snowboarding trip, and I'll spend a week back in NOLA to see some friends and family before I head back to the cold Northeast.. What about yourself?
