Lair of the White Worm Pt1

Lair of the White Worm broadsided me when it first came out in 1988. And I meant that in the best way possible.

Based on the novel of the same name by Bram Stoker (who also wrote the original Dracula novel), Lair was ably directed by Ken Russell, who didn't hold back on the wild stuff.

The film is filled with wild (and gory) images that can be pretty offensive to some people. And this is even before the film reaches its human sacrifice climax.

In the climax, both lead female characters, played by Catherine Oxenberg and Sammi Davis, are captured and tied up in the dungeon-like Lair of the White Worm.

Sammi Davis is left fully dressed, but Oxenberg has been stripped of her clothing, down to just a bra and panties, and is barefoot.

Oxenberg gets re-tied by the villain so that her bare feet are bound together at the ankles, and she is left dangling over the chasm, up which the White Worm shall crawl!

Not sure if the barefoot bondage shots are Oxenberg's feet, or that of a double, but who cares? They're perfection. More to come.
