I will finish my posts about this movie with a Hall of Fame entry (in the next week….finally)

Well, if you haven’t seen the whole movie… you might be pretty confused by now 😉
A lot is open for interpretation.
Simply put, the old guy relives his youth as he was a Bond-like agent chasing Serpentik, the masked woman who always escapes him.
He is obsessed with her (I fully understand that!) and tries to find out who is behind the mask.
If that all has happened really, or how much of it is just a fantasy… that’s not fully clear.
The comic scenes are a great visual addition to it.
They cheated again with her unmasking here, as we don’t see the process of the unmasking, and not even the exposed face that was hiding behind the mask.
Now she is masked by her hair as they fall down the cliff.
Unusual that we see his old version with her young version here.
I really like the scene as we get some more seconds with Serpentik, and all the action is done really cool with the music and the comic panels.
I would kill for a whole movie with Serpentik as the lead character… but I may have written that before… but I need to repeat it once more 😉
These are the first appearances of Serpentik in the movie.
She is the arch-nemesis of the hero. He wants to get her, he wants to unmask her.
She hides behind her mask… and even the face behind the mask… is a mask!
He is obsessed with her… which I can totally understand! 😉
It’s a bit odd that she doesn’t wear her usual mask in the bar. The audience (and all of those in the bar) thinks that she is fighting unmasked… but we see that she is actually wearing a face mask.
And not only one!?! But we will come to that later….
This scene is the most violent scene the movie has to offer, and damn… she is really killing those goons right and left!
Her arsenal is quite something. Deadly heels, razor-sharp claws, and little hooks in her hair(!).
Kind of a very violent/over-the-top Catwoman.
I love the twist and the end as she is laughing while ripping off her mask. A very sexy scene!
And even that face is just one of many…
By the way: Her leather catsuit is ….well…. AWESOME!
I will make at least one more post about this already legendary movie!
This one was recommended on Behind the Mask a while ago (thanks again!), and it’s finally time to post about it!
One episode of a 90s TV show with 2 interesting scenes in it!
Including a sexy Catwoman in the garden 🙂
Preview:
Well….
….just a Catwoman in the garden!?!
Find the masked thief in this picture 😉
There she is!

Sadly, the picture quality is rather bad… but it’s a rather rare TV show from the 90s, so you won’t find DVD or Blu-ray quality in such a case 🙁
Also, both scenes are quite short, especially the 2nd one, where you basically don’t get a single good look at the masked woman.
But enough complaining… I especially love the first scene! I mean, a wheel-flipping Catwoman in such a suit and mask? In the garden? In broad daylight?
Well, he is one lucky bastard! I wouldn’t mind being “attacked” like that….
The mask doesn’t really work for her as he quickly finds out who she is… yeah, the cowl isn’t a great disguise, but she certainly looks great in the suit and mask!
I highly suspect that is a stuntwoman in the suit at first… great job!
Also, a nice reveal when the mask comes off, even though there is a cut after she reaches for it.
I don’t know the reason why she is running around like that… will have to see the whole episode.
I guess she was practicing and wanted to get the role in a movie.
The second scene is a nice addition, even though it’s a shame the masked thief wasn’t shown properly at all.
You just see a masked figure running away from the guy, and she immediately gets unmasked… which isn’t shown properly as well.
Still, a masked female thief gets chased and unmasked… so I am glad the scene is in the episode.
In the end, it’s quite a smashing episode if you have 2 scenes like that in it 🙂
Thanks again to the nice guy who recommended me this one months ago!
Time for another post from this new TV show…
This time, one of the sisters wants to get away with an important painting (#familysecrets), but the cops and the crazy villainess are already at the art gallery!
This one was recommended to me some weeks ago, thanks a lot!
I think I know from what TV show it is… but more on that down below…

Interesting mask?!

Well, that is quite a bizarre mask!
Is it supposed to frighten the opponents? Is it for protection? Is it to conceal her identity?
I would say only the first aspect might really work here.
It can’t be for protection, as she unmasks as soon as she really gets into a fight.
It can’t be for concealing her identity… for the same reason. Unless… these folks already know her secret identity, and that’s why she takes it off there?
Would love to know more about her, but I only know the scenes from the video.
The original video is on Youtube as well. I just edited it and made it about two minutes shorter (scenes without her).
Ok, back to her mask. I like that it disguises her really well… it’s really unusual, that’s cool as well.
I don’t like the see-through parts and all the metal buttons, but ok.
It’s a shame that she takes the mask off on her own.
It would have been great if she had protected a real secret identity with it and the guys would try to unmask her.
I enjoyed watching the show quite a lot, even though it did frustrate me a LOT as well… from the “mask” perspective.
These scenes already hint at certain problems of the show.
She appears in her mask, runs away from cops… great suspense, great setting… and she looks hot in her catsuit and mask.
Ok, I get that she unmasks while she is climbing, her face is hidden, more or less.
But then she escapes from the tower and runs around in the city, she NEVER puts on her mask back on again!?!! WHY?!?!?!
That makes no sense at all! But I guess it was the old “we can’t hide the face of our beautiful actress behind a mask for too long” trope. Damn producers!
So, she may go around without her mask, even though the danger of anyone seeing her (or her getting caught by a camera) is insanely high!
The villainess sees her face, and some civilians may have gotten a pretty good look at her as well.
But let’s ignore logic and rather present her pretty face without a mask 🙁
Damn, I cursed at my TV when I saw it 😆
Still, it is a great chase on the tower, I love the suspension of a masked woman like her being chased. A great thrill!
And that detective is actually in love with the woman behind the mask… which makes it even better 🙂
There are no secret identity aspects in that video, no unmasking or such things.
But if you like masked women in rubber wetsuits who wrestle underwater…. then you will enjoy the video 😉

Do you wanna watch the whole video?
Well, you could join the VIP club on Frogwoman.org, but that probably wouldn’t make much sense for you as the other videos there don’t contain masked women 😉
Unless you count a scuba mask as a mask (in terms of a disguise).
So, right here on the blog, you get an alternative method to get the video:
In this movie, we have a female diamond thief…. no not Catwoman ;-)!
Certainly, a rather rare movie with little over 100 votes on IMDB, a German TV movie from 1998.
But luckily it got a DVD release back then… oddly enough even with an English dub! 🙂

Time to…

(I edited the scenes so it wouldn’t be too long)
Ok, I bet you know what I think about her “mask” 😉
What a moronic choice of the costume department! She is a thief… and there is always a chance she might run into somebody on a heist. So, WHY would she NOT put on a mask and disguise herself? WHY????
Well, I guess some moron (producer? or director?) said something like “We can’t cover up the face of our beautiful actress for that long!”.
She he got that catsuit with a hood… but without a mask. DAMN! So annoying…. and unrealistic²²!
But still, the scene is somehow thrilling as she can get caught and “unmasked”, as the hood is at least some minimalistic “mask”.
Plus…. she looks quite stunning in her catsuit.
Sadly she doesn’t run into anybody but the guy is already waiting for her, he discovered a screw she left behind and was suspecting her beforehand.
A nice costume change as she strips off her catsuit and reveals the sexy dress in which he had seen her earlier.
But damn… what a wasted potential! You have a hot female thief in a catsuit and she gets just that crappy hood? And she gets caught like that?
ARRGGGHHH!
She has no secret identity for the whole movie, this is so frustrating….
There are more heist scenes (with the same catsuit) in this and there is also a scene where she is wearing a mask to impersonate an old lady.
Time for another scene from the same movie which I posted about last week!
In this scene, the masked cat burglar in latex gets unmasked 🙂

She sneaks around and…
…gets caught!
He has special plans…

And here is the video:

In my opinion, the scene is very interesting but there are a lot of negative aspects for me.
It is shot in black and white (which is unsexy) and the scene has no audio as it is only a presentation for the movie makers who wanna check out what they have filmed earlier in the day.
As you can see in the ending the director isn’t happy about it at all and is arguing with the camera guy.
Sadly it’s not shown as they are actually filming it. 🙁
And I still don’t get why Irma Vep isn’t resisting as he unmasks her. (as in the original from 1916)
In the new TV show, the scene is done differently, and that is my favorite version:
In this one, the acting is quite…. off… a little bit.
On the plus side, it has a sexy cat burglar in latex(!) with a full face mask! Certainly, a fantastic outfit to create some great scenes with it…. which they are barely doing.
Imagine a cat burglar in that outfit and mask on a heist, getting caught by security guards… and then battling against them as they try to pin her down and unmask her 😉
I checked these movie ages ago and back then I didn’t think it was very interesting.
After I watched the whole, new TV show with Irma Vep…I gave it another try and watched the whole movie.
And I have to say, it has some interesting aspects….even the movie itself isn’t really good…in my opinion.

A masked cat burglar….
…who is under this mask?
Interesting outfit to run around in a hotel 😉
…it gets wet…

Here is the video:

These 5 minutes are my favorite minutes are certainly my favorite part of the movie.
I had to cut the first part short as she was peeping on a fully naked woman… that would have been a problem on Youtube.
Especially in comparison to the new TV show, I am no big fan of the overall movie.
BUT, it certainly has some interesting scenes!
First of all, there is a scene where the Irma Vep actress is shown as she tries her latex catsuit for the first time (it only starts as she is fully in it).
It gets more interesting as it gets revealed in a dialog that she asked her costume designer if she could buy the suit after the movie filming was finished.
VERY interesting as it implies she really enjoys wearing it… and that fact gets discussed in the movie 🙂
The video here starts as she runs around in her own hotel with the catsuit… she REALLY likes to wear it 😉
Oddly she doesn’t wear a mask to it. This way every person she would accidentally run into… would see her (a famous actress) running around in that suit!
Seems like she enjoys the danger of getting caught as well 😉
I really enjoy it as she sneakily runs around the hotel after she had stolen the jewels, incl. the sounds of her latex suit.
Her latex suit is really sexy and it gets even better when it gets wet by the rain!
And I think it’s now wet from both sides 😉
Obviously, she then falls asleep on her bed, still wearing her suit! Who knows what she has done after she returns from her little heist….
Her costume designer and that hotel guy find her on her bed dressed like that. I wonder what the two think about that!
Certainly, the costume designer (who is in love with her) has full proof now of how much she likes to wear the suit.
I added the last bit as it has that short self unmasking in it.
It am not sure that the stunt double is wearing a latex suit as long the camera isn’t close. It looks more like spandex to me in that part. Maybe she could easier move around in that.
In the close up she certainly is wearing the latex suit and she looks great in the full outfit with a mask.
In the beginning, the costume designer had a rather unsexy latex mask with zippers on every opening, but that wasn’t chosen as you can see.
It’s a shame that there isn’t any real action as long she is in latex and mask… the possibilities…
Imagine she battling some guards or cops in that outfit! Some unmasking attempts, some mask damage… she slowly panics as she is desperately trying to escape…

However, it’s not often you see a cat burglar in latex in a movie or TV show… so I am happy about these scenes!
