Bound

Stormy Daniels is Lily, a former waitress who rides the wave of her pointless existence into a life of drug abuse, prostitution and despair. One evening, she is almost raped, but is saved by the mysterious Henry (Dave Cummings), who looks like Lawrence Tierney and is the kind of man they just don't make anymore — but should.

Henry makes Lily an incredible offer: he will help her rid herself of her addictions, and all he wants in return is … nothing. Like I said, they don't make guys like him anymore. They fall in love, and life is perfect. Of course, he dies, leaving her alone again and in control of his considerable fortune.

Enter Garrett (Tony DeSergio), the old man's lawyer. Up until now he's existed in the shadows, taking care of business and keeping himself blended into the background of Henry's life. But one day he shows up and coaxes Lily out of the mansion and back into the dark world of sexual danger that she had all but left behind. Garrett offers Lily a salvation, of sorts, through her submission. But does he have ulterior motives? I'm not telling.

Daniels puts a lot of effort into making Lily a three-dimensional gal, and both DeSergio and Cummings are solid as well. Raven does a great job of shooting narratives, and with the aid of cinematographer Francois Clousot, you've got one fine looking DVD here. And the sex is, of course, top notch. What else would you expect from Wicked?
