Gator Bait

Would you believe I've never seen Gator Bait until just recently? I caught it on Joe Bob's Last Drive-In show on Shudder.

Claudia Jennings stars as Desiree, a Cajun version of a jungle girl. She briefly wears these weird looking Roman-type sandals at the very beginning, but for the rest of the film's running time, she's wonderfully barefoot and scantily clad.

She even climbs trees like a jungle girl (although she doesn't swing from them). Desiree goes on the warpath when her younger sister is killed and her home is burnt down by thugs who wrongfully blame her for another person's death.

For a B-movie from the 1970s, Gator Bait is actually very well done. The only thing I would have liked to have seen was Desiree getting tied up, which never happens.

If there had been a BF bondage scene with Miss Jennings, then Gator Bait would have been insanely great.

But Gator Bait still has a heroine going barefoot throughout the whole film, which makes it a must-have in my book. Thanks for letting me know about this one, Joe Bob! If I may borrow a phrase of his: The drive-in will never die!

Tarzan's Peril

Since I recently put up a post about Halle Berry playing Dorothy Dandridge in a Tarzan movie, I might as well put up a post showing DD in that film, Tarzan's Peril.

In Tarzan's Peril, Dandridge plays the leader of an African tribe who finds herself captured by the bad guys and tied up in a hut.

This being a Tarzan film, Dandridge is barefoot while tied down.

And there's a nice, slow pan up her bound body as she writhes in her bondage.

And she's well gagged, as well.

I'm not going to lie, while this is a great scene, I prefer the Halle Berry one in Introducing Dorothy Dandridge. Just because it's Halle, who's one of my favorite actresses.

Introducing Dorothy Dandridge

Introducing Dorothy Dandridge was a movie made for HBO that starred Halle Berry as the film actress.

Dandridge appeared as a jungle girl in the film, Tarzan's Peril. Out of all of Dandridge's films, the makers of IDD chose this spectacle to reenact.

And out of all the scenes from Tarzan, they chose this one, where she's tied up on the floor of a hut. And she's barefoot, as well.

So you've got Halle Berry in a BF bondage scene in a biopic. Nice.

Tarzan soon enters the hut to break her free here, just like he did in Tarzan's Peril.

Speaking of jungle girls, I'm currently working on the latest Ryta the Jungle Girl book. I'm more than thirty pages into it, and it's going very well. More to come about this right here.

Mighty Peking Man

When I was a kid, the year 1977 meant only one thing: Star Wars. But as I got older, I quickly realized that others things happened in 1977.

'77 also saw the release of Mighty Peking Man, which is considered one of the best rip-offs of King Kong.

But I fondly recall this flick not because of its big ape, but the big ape's sidekick, played by Evelynn Kraft.

She wasn't tied up, but Kraft was a jungle girl who went barefoot and scantily clad even after being brought to "civilization."

So it looks like 1977 brought us a lot of good stuff besides Star Wars.

Slave Girls From Infinity Pt1

Released in 1987, Slave Girls From Byond Infinity is a fantastic B-movie about scantily-clad, barefoot slave girls battling against space madmen and their robots!

Elizabeth Kaitan and Cindy Beal star as the slave girls, and the very first scene has both women chained up deep in the bowels of a spaceship. But Daria (Kaitan) manages to free herself of her chains. She then helps Tisa (Beal) get free, as well.

Making their escape via a lifepod, the girls crash land on an alien planet--which looks somewhat like Southern California. Crashing in the sea, they get separated.

Daria makes her way to a large mansion in the jungle, where she finds Tisa, along with the wealthy owner, who offers her a room and clothes.

But Daria discovers something is off about this place, and she's not wrong! Daria and Tisa go barefoot (as well as scantily clad) for the better part of this film's running time, making it one of the best BF bondage flicks out there. Much more to come.

Amazonia

Amazonia (aka White Slave) was a B-movie from the mid-80s that was based on a true story. A woman had been cast off into the Amazon jungleby her enemies to die. But instead of dying, she adapted and became a jungle girl, sort of. The film was disappointing, as there wasn't as much bondage as I would have hoped, and what little bondage the film had wasn't very good.

But the covers for the VHS/DVD boxes were always more satisfying for me, especially this one, which has the barefoot heroine hanging from a pole suspended between two of her captors.

Here's a little more involved picture, under the White Slave name, with her captors carrying her off in a wooden cage. It was often said that some of these old video covers were far better than the movies they advertised. In the case of Amazonia, that's certainly true.

Ryta...and Sheena

I've started working on another Ryta the Jungle Girl story. And unlike the recent Morenci & Lynn, which took place in Ryta's universe--without Ryta--this next story will have Ryta and the regular cast back in action.

I am also planning a sequel to M&L, because the more the merrier. I enjoyed writing that one, and would like to see more adventures of Morenci & Lynn. But I actually miss Ryta, and am glad to be back writing her again.

I thought showing screen grabs of Tanya Roberts as Sheena would be good for this upcoming book announcement.

Despite its flaws, I always liked the Sheena movie. Tanya looked just like how I would imagine Sheena would be, and she really gave the part her all.

Tanya went barefoot throughout the whole film, and was even chained up at one point.

I'll keep you updated on the progress of the latest Ryta book, and will alert you as to exactly when it comes out.

Shandra The Jungle Girl

Shandra: The Jungle Girl is a really cheap, direct to video outing from 1999.

It starred Lisa Comshaw stars as the jungle girl. Comshaw also worked as a bondage model under the name Tori Sinclair. Sadly, Tori/Lisa passed away a few years ago.

Comshaw's jungle girl gets just one scene in the film with a pair of handcuffs in front of her, but that's it, bondage-wise, for Comshaw. Drat.

The saving grace for me here is that, as a jungle girl, Comshaw wears a scanty outfit and goes barefoot the whole time.

The only other bondage scene in the movie is with two other actresses who are fully dressed. They're tied back to back and in such a lame way that they easily free themsevles.

Shandra: The Jungle Girl is a pretty bad movie, save for the barefoot scenes, and I present it here just to be complete. Happy July!

Daughter of the Jungle

In the 1982 movie Daughter of the Jungle, Sabrina Siani stars as a jungle girl. Here, she gets grabbed from behind by a thug.

The thug even hand gags her! How evil!

After being leered over by the bad guys, Sabrina is left with her hands tied to a pole in a native hut (if native huts were to vanish tomorrow, we would have no place to leave bound captive jungle girls).

But maybe they should have tied her with her hands behind her back to the pole, because she very easily unties herself, Not a very smart bunch of thugs, are they? You can see this clip right here.

Morenci & Lynn

I'm working on a new book involving two characters from the universe of Ryta the Jungle Girl. They are Morenci and Lynn Sutherland, who team up during an adventure on their own.

It takes place in the same Lost World universe (loaded with dinosaurs and danger and bondage) as the Ryta stories, and will be a direct sequel to the last Ryta book Ryta and the Wrath of Malek.

No actual title yet, other than Morenci & Lynn. The writing is going well, and I hope to have this done soon. There will also be more adventures with Ryta and the gang, as well as with Black Mantis, my superhero. I'll keep you updated.

Slave Girls From Infinity

Slave Girls From Beyond Infinity is an extremely fun film to watch.

Daria (Elizabeth Cayton) and Tisa (Cindy Beal) start out in a jail cell aboard a spaceship that's transporting them to a prison.

They're barefoot and clad in these wonderful jungle girl-type outfits for the better part of the movie.

Although they make their escape in this opening scene, there's far more barefoot and bondage adventures ahead for them. You can see this scene right here.
