DIRECTOR: JEAN-PAUL BRANLETTE. RUNNING TIME: 89 mins. DVD: REDWING. PRICE: £14.99 CERT: 18 A curious film made in 1970s France, Bondage is perhaps the only example of a homo-erotic attempt at the Robin Hood legend. For the most part it follows the traditional version of the oft-told tale, its...

Bondage Beach (Gamahuche, 1972)

DIRECTOR: VIOLET WAND. RUNNING TIME: 79 mins. DVD: PEEPSHOW CLASSICS. PRICE £9.99 CERT 18 An attempt to parody the Beach Party films of the 1960s, Bondage Beach comes off surprisingly well, replicating the cheap and cheerful feel of the originals. Thankfully, however, it doesn’t feature beach movie veterans Frankie Avalon and Annette Funicello. Purporting to be set in California, but actually shot on a Norfolk beach in March, the film concerns the attempts of various rival factions to win the local heat of the Romantic Restraint Monthly bondage contest. Local black-leather bondage biker gang-leader Erich Von Manacle (portrayed by...
