Kimberly Wilder: An Assessment Part 2

Both the wires and the chain are electrified, as is indicated by the blue arcs of voltage which leap between her breasts and across the backs of her thighs. It appears that the pulley is also electrified, for electricity has caused the victim's platinum blonde hair to stand on end, and blue tendrils of electricity rise from her head. One can all but hear the crackling and sizzling sounds of the electricity and smell the stench of her seared flesh.

Kimberly Wilder subjects her submissive characters to an array of punishments and torments, including anal impalement, milking of the penis, whippings, beatings, spankings, oral and anal sexual assaults, bondage, forced servitude, humiliation, enemas, incarceration, infibulations, and cross dressing. However, in the many pictures that I have been fortunate enough to collect from a number of websites featuring Wilder's work, I have yet to see more than the four drawings that I describe in this review in which she threatens her wayward young misses with a punishment as severe as death or with a fate as horrific as cannibalism. In the picnic scene, in which the victim's erection may join the hotdogs and sausages on the luncheon menu, Wilder effects humor as well as horror, but in the other three drawings, there is only horror, and the threats are all too realistically represented, previews of things to come rather than merely expressions of what might be.

These drawings suggest that the wildly talented Wilder can and well may make good on her promise--or her threat--to offer her fans more than violence and suffering in her future work. She may be ready to graduate to mayhem and murder in an attempt to arouse both herself and her jaded viewers anew. The only question is whether her aficionados have the stomach and the balls for such raw fare. As for Cal Y. Pygia, I say, bring it on, Kimberly, the Wilder the better!
