My free time is very limited right now as I am in World Cup fever and preparing for the Video shot (next week) for my other blog Frogwoman Org.
But at least I wanna recommended a movie to you today that you can find on Youtube.
The picture quality isn’t good, but it’s a TV movie that never got released on DVD/Bluray.
I hope it gets aired in HD on TV someday.
Preview:
There she is…
Caught!

Here is the full movie (not my upload, German audio, English subtitles):

Watch the video before you continue!
She looks really great in her full-face mask. And the opening is really strong as she gets caught but can escape the trap.
I also really like the relationship between the hero and her. Of course, I would have LOVED it when he finds out who the masked thief is by unmasking her in a fight.
The scene where she seemingly escapes him as she leaves the trunk starts nice… but I hate that she immediately unmasks herself and not pulls it back on as she hears his voice.
Quite erotic that they then have sex as he finally caught the thief.
All in all some really nice scenes that I will present one by one… IF… there will be a better picture quality available.
In this one “Supergirl” (in her Spider-girl costume) saves the day but encounters some problems afterward!
An epic, bizarre self-unmasking battle is the result 😆

She saved the day once more!
Well, something is wrong!
Her mask!
The epic self-unmasking battle goes on…

This is a very early episode of “Supergirl” where she runs around in a costume that looks a LOT like the early “Spider-girl” costumes from the comics and animated TV shows.
Quite bizarre already.
But what then happens inside her home is ….also… quite bizarre and pretty unique.
A heroine who desperately tries to unmask herself over and over again… That is quite a very rare situation!
Her mask is magic and the source of her superpowers. Most of the time…not always… it is secured in place by some kind of force and bad guys have a very, very hard time to unmask her.
Which is quite great by the way 😉
But from what I understand her mask has also some kind of own will or something like that.
I guess it wanted her to stay in her Supergirl/Spider-girl costume 😉
Really odd how she gets thrown around/jumps around the room 😆
Of course, the CGI with the magic mask looks quite bad (#blurry), but the sound effects are nice.
And it’s a nice reversed situation.
Normally masked superheroines don’t want to be unmasked and here she wants to unmask herself but has such a hard time.
Thanks a lot (again) to the one who recommended me this one a while ago!
This bizarre Superheroine show is quite a rollercoaster.
It has 129(!) episodes, which are available on Youtube!
A masked superheroine in different costumes and solid masks is the lead character!
It has a lot of secret identity issues incl. unmaskings and unmasking attempts!
It even has a masked villainess that is in many episodes!
Sounds fantastic? Well yes…. BUT…. there are also some problems.
More on that later on…

Supergirl!?!
And a masked villainess!
She is pinned down and someone is reaching for her mask!

Watch the video before you continue!
I combined scenes from 2 episodes for this one. One episode ends just after the villainess unmasked herself and we see Supergirl’s shocked face. #cliffhanger

Here are the problems the show has for me:
– Obviously, the language issue if you are not familiar with it… no dub or subtitles are available
– The playlist of this show has 129 videos with episodes but they are …often… not in order… a total mess
– It’s a soap opera, a really over-the-top soap opera… that you can realize very quickly without understanding a word 😆
– Really bad CGI and a total overload of superpowers
– some really annoying characters like a magic micro-mini-human
But, it also has a lot to offer 🙂 (as mentioned above)
Now to the scene itself:
Supergirl knows who the villain is, I think she was/is in love with him as he was turned into this evil character.
So he is shocked to find her under the mask of his enemy… Supergirl.
He wants to protect her so he carries the unmasked Supergirl away before the villainess can find her.
It’s been a while since I watched (skipped through) these episodes and the language issue makes it a lot more difficult to follow the crazy storyline.
I like the struggle with her and that he unmasks her, even the camera should be more focused on her face.
But I certainly love the expression on her face as she realizes in terror that he unmasked her.
She should have put up more of a fight… but I guess the way she got smashed against the tree was still affecting her big time.
I love how the guy is tossing her mask on the ground as he isn’t exactly happy about finding out that his love was Supergirl the whole time.
All in all, a really interesting scene.
In other episodes, she is wearing a costume that makes her look like a version of Spider-girl, also really interesting!
And the mask is actually the source of her power, as soon she puts it on she turns into the superheroine.
That means an unmasking leaves her powerless AND destroys her secret identity, quite a combo.
I guess I could make …at least…. 5 more posts with scenes from this show.
I will think about it….

The hint where to find the playlist with the other episodes can be easily found in the video 😉
Thanks to a member of our Behind the Mask forum, I discovered this gem, check it out and enjoy:

Watch the video before you continue!
Well….. WOW! I must say that is a VERY spectacular fan film!
This isn’t an aminated video from a big studio but the result of the work of just a few folks.
I love that Catwoman is in it and Black Widow is a good opponent for her… even I would have preferred Batgirl 😉
The effects are well done, all the sweat, rain and thunder, and so on.
The effects really add to the overall atmosphere.
The fight scene is well-choreographed and amazingly long.
Also, a big bonus for me is the costume damage! Normally these costumes seem indestructible in the movies which is quite annoying.
Especially the aspect that the Catwoman eye mask gets damaged twice is really great for me, as I love mask damage which happens so rarely!
A nice aspect is that Catwoman then gets fully unmasked! Also, I always prefer if the opponent slowly yanks or rips that mask away.
A shame that the two aren’t talking a little more, especially since some comments about Catwoman’s secret identity would have been great as her mask gets damaged more and more.
I imagine a Catwoman with a cowl fighting the classic Batgirl and then these two would battle to see how can destroy the mask of the opponent first 😉
As you can see on their Youtube channel they will make another battle between these two… looking forward to it… BIG time!
We have a masked woman and two guys who break into a school.
What are they up to? Will they get caught and unmasked?

Here she is…
…
….BUSTED!

And here is the video:

I uploaded this video on the Youtube channel, but it is unlisted there, so you won’t find it there by searching or browsing my Youtube channel.
Why? Well, the whole (short) movie was uploaded to Youtube by the guy who made it and this is basically just a part of it with one edit.
So, I think my video shouldn’t be on (public) Youtube and that’s why it is unlisted.
I will put a link to the whole movie in this post as well, so it should be ok to post a short part of it.

She looks really good in that mask, a shame that she unmasks herself, even if it is done in a good way without cuts.
In my version, the guys would have given up easily and she would have battled the two cops who then would have unmasked her after some serious struggle.
But ok, this movie is made for kids…. so that wasn’t an option 😉
In the end, it’s a nice reveal of a stunning young woman, so I think it’s a solid scene all things considered.
Today I wanna feature a GREAT compilation on this site. And thanks again to the guy who pointed me towards it!
A compilation of masked villainesses of all sorts. In under 4 minutes you will see a lot of great scenes. 🙂
Some of them were already featured here on this blog, and one scene can even be found on my sister blog frogwoman.org.
But as a matter of fact, I don’t know some of these scenes.
Perhaps some of you can fill in some of the blanks as well!
*Edit*
I only identified 5 of fitting movies/TV shows. Pretty disappointed by that. Guess I have seen one or two of the other scenes, but not sure.
However the movies/TV shows I know for sure:
Weep no more, my lady [movie] – wetsuit, puts on scuba mask, japanese outfit/fencing mask, scuba scene
Continuum [TV show, season 1, episode 7] – shower attack with taser
Punisher [movie] – wetsuit (in group), motorcycle/chain
James Bond – A view to kill [movie]– Eifeltower, angle scene, landing on boat
Sudden Strike [movie] – penguin, mascot
Beverly Hills Cop 2 [movie] – woman in gas mask – Thanks to “Franck” for this info!
Romeo must die [movie] – woman on motorcycle (uzi, “unmasking”) – Thanks to “john jawir” for the info!
MacGyver [“Murderers’ Sky” Season 3, Episode 20] – the very last scene in the video with Tia Carrere – Thanks to “2AM” for the info!
Alias [Season 3, ep 14] – ? – Thanks to “pp” for the info!
Clip starting at :19 is Loni Anderson playing a female jewel thief from “B.L. Stryker: Grand Theft Hotel,” an ABC series starring Burt Reynolds. – Thanks to JK!
Clip at 1:10 of a masked killer using a silencer is from “Full Exposure: The Sex Tapes Scandal.” Jennifer O’Neill is the killer. – Thanks to JK!
If you like masked heroines like Batgirl…you need to check out this ongoing web-series from ALZI production!
They started with two Spider Gwen and a Batgirl video. After that they started the Batgirl web-series.
So far it has 4 episodes and new ones seem to arrive every 2-3 weeks.
Preview:
Putting on the cowl for the first time!
Facing the bad guys…
…in combat.
Will she win?
That doesn”t look good for her!

And here are the episodes 1-3 of the Batgirl web-series:

Well, I really like how the series develops! Her enemies getting stronger but she manages to beat them.
I think she will get into more problems in the future episodes… some (more) peril scenes included.
And of course I really hope that the bad guys are motivated to find out who is hiding under that cowl 😉
Her costume is solid, the actress is pretty and talented and the action scenes are good for such a low-budget series.
I hope for many more episodes with Batgirl and more footage from Spider-Gwen.
[UPDATE: AUGUST 12th] Episode 4
Wow, what a bitter end for Batgirl in that episode. She couldn’t stop the thugs from unmasking her!!! Now she is into real trouble. I’m very curious how that will turn out for her.
