Portions of this review originally appeared on Fleshbot

Michelle Aston takes a very long break from her latest art installation to go and snatch the cutest petite skateboardist, Amber Rayne, from the playground down the block.

Still wet behind the ears, Amber is led blindfolded inside Michelle’s loft space and with enthusiasm she very quickly transforms Amber into her latest “art piece” turning her into her sextoy.

So that’s what happened. I had to read the boxcover after I watched the movie to find out.

This girl/girl BDSM flick from New York-based studio Bleu Productions had such a low budget that the plot couldn’t even fit in the movie. Regardless, who needs a plot when single-minded lesbians are slapping the hell out of each other?

Tattooed and mohawked Michelle Aston is especially well cast as a masterful domme and Amber Rayne, who in any other situation is a take-charge kind of performer, has no choice but to play the doe-eyed sub.

While a hastily-shot montage of skateboarders precedes the film, and a skateboard is actually used to roll a bound Rayne around, the title is misleading; Rayne doesn’t look like a sk8rgrrl. But then again, compared with Aston, Mongol hordes would look as if they were plucked from a playground.

What is satisfying about this movie is that it wastes no time, yet Aston and Rayne do develop a relationship through it. There is kissing and embracing in between the serious ass-smacking, nipple clamping, and strap-on action.

I say serious because Aston and Rayne know what they are doing. The movie is not about people pretending to engage in these activities. And Beatty directs in natural light, choosing loving shots of Rayne and Aston, unposed and balletic.

But Skateboard Kink Freak is not a feel-good, Up with People lesbian BDSM movie. The soundtrack, by Belgian metalcore band Caldera, is anything but chirpy. I fear lesbian BDSM afficianadas will watch this film and want to kidnap Amber Rayne so that they can don gloves like Aston did and slap Rayne’s ass with abandon. I know I did. Does that make me a lesbian?
