Earlier in the month I did two posts about a pair of episodes from the horror anthology Masters of Horror. Well, I forgot that I had pics from a third episode!
The name of this episode is Imprint, and it's directed by Takashi Miike. It deals with a young sex worker who's framed for stealing a ring from the matron of the brothel she works in.
The result is that she's bound and gagged in the very strict fashion that can be seen in the Japanese bondage style.
The bondage scenes run for the duration of the episode's run time, and--fair warning--they are very intense.
In fact, Imprint didn't even air on Showtime, the channel that Masters of Horror was originally produced for.
Although it aired with the rest of the first season in England, Imprint was only available in the USA through physical media (which was where I originally got these vidcaps).
No official explanation was given for this situation--but, as I've said, Imprint is VERY INTENSE.
