Thanks to the nice guy who recommended me this TV episode!
In this one, we have 3 female bank robbers in gas masks(!) as they rob a bank 🙂

Ok, well…. that sounded (much) better on paper… in my opinion.
First, the scene is very short.
Then you have verrrrry unfitting girl-pop music and weird slow-motion in it! WHYYYYY??????!!!???
Two really horrific choices 🙁
But…. on the good side, you have 3 women in gas masks (and a dude) who rob a bank! Great scenario 🙂
Certainly, this scene would also fit my Frogwoman.org blog as the gas masks are not only to keep their identity a secret but also they are needed as a breathing device against
the tear gas.
Also, I like the quick costume change (also much too quick) where they change from menacing bank robbers in gas masks to innocent women in seconds.
They are perfectly disguised with these jumpsuits and Kevlar vests. #goodjob
All in all…. this scene could have been much better with such a great scenario! Imagine a security guard or a cop grabbing for one of those gas masks!
Trying to unmask them in order to use the gas mask for himself/herself and thereby exposing that unmasked face to witnesses and/or cameras….
Sadly, they don’t appear again in those outfits later on in the episode.
Side note: Baywatch beauty Yasmine Bleeth is also in the episode… and she made it into some videos on my other blog.
Ok, in the past I posted practically no scenes with unmasking where a woman is wearing a “full-face mask to impersonate someone else” aka a FFMTISE (my newly created short form 😉 )
Time to change that!
I wanna start with a rather new scene from 2022 that most of you won’t know… I guess.
In this one, we have a villainous couple and their special disguises.

Quite odd how her haircut slightly changes between the two scenes even though all that is happening on the same day 😆
Ok, first of all, I love it when a woman impersonates another (attractive) woman with such a mask.
In the first movie of this movie series, she was impersonating a very old woman, which I don’t find very interesting… unless someone would figure it out and try to unmask her.
Yeah, it’s only a self-unmasking in front of someone who already knows who is behind the mask.
Also, the CGI effects of the unmasking(s) are really bad.
Yeah, this isn’t a Hollywood movie with a big budget like Mission Impossible where you have such unmaskings quite often.
Such masks aren’t easy to make but it is doable …even without a big budget.
The lazy and cheap CGI solution looks really bad and ruins the unmasking to a certain degree (for me) 🙁
Ok, I guess many “normal” folks without an unmasking fetish won’t care much when 😆
Primarily I am a little disappointed how little these new movies with Diabolik are doing with secret identities.
I mean he is a criminal who is wearing a latex mask(!) during his heists and she becomes his accomplice in the first movie.
So, I hoped that she would put on a latex mask herself… but no luck (so far).
Another hope I have is that someone will figure out that something is wrong when she is wearing such a FFMTISE.
The person then would reach for her mask, damaging it, thereby verifying that it is actually a mask and not a real face.
And then they would struggle and the person would try everything to fully unmask her!
(the video wasn’t welcome on YouTube as well…. really annoying lately)

Well, the movie is only available in Turkish, so haven’t watched it fully and don’t have a big clue on what is going on exactly.
Ok, there are some German sentences and these I do understand (no surprise) but those don’t help much.
But the scenes with the two masked women are really nice and I also like that we get to see both unmaskings as well, even if it’s only self-unmaskings.
Not a big fan of that net structure part on that Balaclava mask… looks weird.
The other woman has some tactical outfit of the German police… rare to see that on a woman, especially in an international movie/TV show.
Interesting that they all seem to be on the same team, so it looks like they can all escape.
On the other hand, it would have been nice to have the masked “villainess” to fight the masked police woman #unmaskingbattle 😉

You can find the whole movie (or TV episode?) on YouTube (for now).
No more masked women in it, as far as I know.

A Merry Christmas to all of you!
Or whatever you do or don’t celebrate… have a good time 🙂
I will make one more post before the year is over.
(wasn’t welcome on YouTube at all, even an extra short version with under 2 minutes)

Let’s start with the bad aspects:
There is no unmasking action or any secret identity issues in this scene and the entire show. 🙁
But… on the good side:
You have three hot women in masks… and that in a quite lengthy heist! Some day I have to re-edit the whole heist scene from all the episodes into one video.
Which will be quite difficult with all the time jumps…
Plus the masks are very interesting with that unusual look! They offer quite a good disguise.
It’s a shame that there were so many guards in that heist… but it’s just a massive shootout. Pretty cool, but only in regard to stylish action scenes.
In my version, I would have included some hand-to-hand combat scenes with guards who are curious to see who is under these masks 😉
All in all, I like the whole season, as is a good thriller show with interesting characters.
I will re-watch this one in some years.
I don’t think there will be a second season, as the storyline is “finished”, but I wouldn’t mind a second season… with some more masked women of course 😉
Yeah, sadly very little screen time for our masked woman and she then just gets away.
Also, the very fast editing doesn’t help….
However, I always enjoy scenes like this a lot! A masked villainess in an action scene…. love it!
I always hope that she gets into a hand-to-hand fight with the cops who would then try everything to dramatically unmask her… but that happens very rarely… sadly.
But I enjoy every second with such a masked woman nonetheless.
It’s time for a proper upgrade as there is so little text in these old posts!
This is one of my favorite scenes that I have watched a hundred times, so it’s time to make a proper upgrade post.
Also, the video is on my pretty small Dailymotion channel, so many of you may have never seen the video or that old post.

In this TV show, Barbara Gordon is Oracle and is bound to a wheelchair.
As her old enemy, Lady Shiva re-appears in Gotham Barbara feels the need to put on her old (GREAT) Batgirl costume and can (shortly) walk again with the help of an experimental device.

Watch the video before you continue!
This Batgirl costume (alongside the nearly identical one from “Batman and Robin”) is SO AWESOME for me!
The mixture with the (mostly) black leather and rubber is sexy as hell and I love every second Dina Meyer is in it (and Alicia Silverstone).
If I would live in that Gotham City I would become a criminal in no time or …even better… a cop who wants to arrest the vigilante. #BlackScorpionvibes
Or I would need to be rescued from evil criminals suspectingly often 😉
The cowl is nice but basically my only issue about the whole outfit.
It is cut open very high at the back of the head and …more problematic… has no chin strap and no neck coverage.
So unmasking her is way too easy as this video demonstrates.
Also, the cowl could simply fall off in a hectic fight… and that shouldn’t be possible.
It’s a fantastic tread that here we also have a second masked woman in the scene… Lady Shiva.
And damn… her mask is AWESOME and the costume is quite good as well.
It’s a shame that Batgirl here goes down so easily as that device is failing quickly. 🙁
An epic unmasking battle with these two where Batgirl isn’t paralyzed and is wearing a properly secured/upgraded cowl… is basically my holy grail.
Also a whole TV show with such a Batgirl as the lead character…. would be even more insanely-awesome-fantastic 😉
In this show Batgirl is just in one episode and some black and white mini flashbacks.
I do love that Shiva here immediately goes for Batgirl’s mask as soon she realizes that Batgirl is helpless!
That’s how a villain(ess) should do it! She has the opportunity to find out who Batgirl is and takes it. Perfect!
Not like most of the other villains who just run off and aren’t interested at all to find out who is hiding behind that mask.
Now the helpless Barbara Gordon is lying in front of her and she is ready to finish her off to get her revenge (most likely).
Then Huntress, who is sadly never wearing a mask or even a costume, shows up right in time to save Barbara.
She was too late to save Batgirl from the unmasking though. #timing
Due to the fact that Huntress isn’t wearing a mask, Lady Shiva recognizes Helena and runs off as she doesn’t wanna fight against her.
Or maybe she was afraid to lose and then be unmasked as well? 😉
All in all just an awesome scene!
Here, as a little bonus… two (edited) pictures of the “exposed” Barbara:
This one was recommended to me a while ago, but I shamefully forgot about checking out the movie.
Now I finally did, and damn…. it was worth it!
I watched the whole thing to get the full context.

I edited the whole sequence into two parts so it had a better chance of getting onto YouTube.
It was still restricted… but only in one country, and only about 1% of the watchers of the YouTube videos (on my channel) are from this country so I think it’s ok.
I saw Tania Raymonde as she was still a girl on “Malcolm in the Middle” for the first time and then later I started to get a little crush on her.
And now she has a post on both of my blogs… but more on that later on.
The masks are really nice, hiding their identities perfectly.
It’s a shame that she didn’t get unmasked by someone else… but we have 2 self-unmaskings and quite a lot of screentime of her in that mask. 🙂
And to know that Tania Raymonde is under that mask… oh boy!
In my version she would have tussled with a guy on that bed… and he would claw into her mask, she would fight back and then he would finally manage to tear her mask wide open… unmasking her. 😉
Also, a nice bonus that Lili Simmons is in this one! Banshee is one of my favorite TV shows and she is in it.
Sadly this movie isn’t available at all on Blu-ray (or DVD) in Germany (so far). I only found a British DVD version of it.
Hopefully, that will change, but as the movie is already 6 years old… I somehow doubt it.
