Andy Milligan's The Man With Two Heads features an S&M orgy, though here it seems to stand for sex and mutilation! As this was a GP/PG film in the States (hard to believe but there you go) this sequence (and others) were cut down to secure the rating. It goes without saying that the film would have been much better uncut.
Any film with Lynn Lowry would have benefitted from an S&M sequence. Lowry is one of my favourite cult performers and maybe a bit of S&M thrown into the mixture of Sugar Cookies would have helped it, especially as the film does combine sex and violence a little. Mary Woronov in leather, giving Lynn a good thrashing maybe, as an adjunct to her domineering lesbian character?
Amanda Plummer gives an intense perfromance in Butterfly Kiss as a bonkers chain-wrapped lesbian serial killer. The film does deal with S&M imagery but with such an apparently fearless performer as Plummer and Michael Winterbottom as director, this element could perhaps have been taken a good deal further.
