Hello my dears! It's Femdom movie review time!



I have a lot to say about this wonderful movie, so let's jump right in. When you selected Preaching To The Perverted in my poll, I was a little glum at first. It's the one movie I'd already seen and I was looking forward to checking out something new. However, the longer into the runtime I got, the more I remembered what a strange and wonderful gem this film truly is. Preaching To The Perverted is a rare piece of alternative culture that seems like it shouldn't exist in the puritanical landscape it's criticizing.


Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15StHjpD4tI 


The basic premise is that a young man, Peter, is hired by a sitting member of the UK Parliament to help infiltrate the Londom S&M scene and bust a prominent Dominatrix. The MP, Mr. Harding, his female assistant and their allies, are waging a moral crusade against depravity. From this point on, I'll simply refer to them as "the traditionalists." They choose Peter because he's young, good looking and naive enough to help with their sting and from a "good, Christian household" so they're not worried about him getting corrupted.


Surprise! He gets corrupted! It's a slow process, but over the course of many encounters, Peter starts to fall for professional Domina Tanya Cheex, who's played perfectly by the amazing Guinevere Turner. The acting in this movie is excellent from top to bottom (hah, see what I did there?), but Turner steals the show, as a woman playing a Dominatrix should.


Tanya Cheex seems simple on the surface. She's a woman who lives to dominate. A former sex worker who now makes her living conducting an ongoing BDSM burlesque show that employs dozens of slaves and tours BDSM clubs across the world. She's left behind the humdrum of one-on-one sex work to become a performing Goddess. She lives in a castle and her free time is just as fun and kink filled as her performances.



Beneath the surface, she's a complicated woman. She has personal slaves, male and female, but she rejects all their advances when they start to get too close and intimate with her. It becomes clear she's been wounded by a loss of connection to her parents and her past. She enjoys the BDSM lifestyle, but it's obvious she wants something more, even if she has trouble admitting it to herself. No amount of kinky play is going to fill the hole in her heart.


In Peter she finds both a naive young play thing who she can enjoy training and bending to her will, but also someone who's interested in her on a human level. It's a refreshing change for her that someone didn't seek her out just because they want to be dominated.



I won't go into too many details about the resolution and the ending, because I don't want to spoil things. The drama comes to a climax when the bust goes down and Peter has to make a crucial choice between his future career in government or doing the right thing. He has to decide if he's going to be instrumental in imprisoning people for the great crime of engaging in consensual kinky play, all because of some ancient, bullshit obscenity laws.


The thing I love about this movie is that all the major characters go through some form of personal growth. Peter gets a crash course in kink and seeing how fun life can be through the eyes of hedonists. Cheex finally admits to herself that there's more to life than sexy fun and games. Even the two most prominent "traditionalist" characters have to confront the fact that they've wasted much of their lives, pointlessly stifling what could have been a vibrant sex life and a deeper bond with each other due to the nonsensical puritanism they were raised on.


In the end, Preaching To The Perverted is a lighthearted, fun drama with surprisingly intense and jarringly frequent scenes of hardcore kink. It walks that line very well, a feat I've never seen another film or TV series do. It advances the truth that BDSM can be part of a fun, healthy alternative lifestyle and there can still be room for sincerity, intimacy and family. That it was built upon these premises in 1997, when kink and BDSM were still mostly underground and highly misunderstood, is a small miracle. I give Preaching To The Perverted a well earned 5/5 and my highest recommendation!



In the course of revisiting the film, I learned that there was a successful Kickstarter project in 2013 to restore and remaster it. Thanks to that effort, I was able to see it in much higher quality than my first viewing years ago. You'll benefit from that as well, if you choose to watch it. The film can be streamed on Amazon Prime, YouTube, Google Play, iTunes and Tubi.


Preaching To The Perverted raises an interesting question that I now pose to you. If you found the perfect Mistress / slave to be with and you had the opportunity, but that opportunity necessitated being part of a slave harem or sharing your slave with other Mistresses, would you do it? How willing would you be to enter an extended/poly BDSM family?


Vote below my cheeky cherubs! If you celebrate Thanksgiving, I hope you have a good holiday next week. James is working on your next story, as always, so look for that soon.


Until next time, stay naughty!



Yours Truly,

Mistress Cereza
