How Did You Find Our Community?

[nekosan1]

Do you remember a woman named Carrie ? Years (Decades) ago she produced wrote ,and starred in her own videos . I do not know who did the photography . She might have set up the camera herself . She did some topless work , one of those DMan would have loved . She played a Nazi .
I do not remember the plot . Yes , there was a plot . I believe she murdered a woman (herself) on the beach . Then was gunned down , machine gunned , as the topless Nazi . Fade to black .
She did several others . She was killed in various ways. Once she was drowned in a kiddie pool . In at least one other she was murdered and strung up to be butchered . She was very inventive . This was in the early seventies .
I do not know when the Black Plague was started , but soon after her I discovered the Black Plague . That led to Lloyd Kaufman and eventually the sites that evolved to "you guys" . Meaning and including you girls
If anyone else remembers Carrie I would like to hear about how or what they recall about her material .

I remember Carrie, and ran across some of her material on an old disk drive some time ago. It's amazing how everything evolved and got more sophisticated over the years since then, but she and others like Hank Samuels and Shelby were such pioneers!

I am relatively new to the community, compared to most who frequent these boards. I stumbled upon the kind of content discussed on this board at random while surfing the net around a year ago, and then, upon this board. This was the first board I became a member of, and I began posting reviews of the vids I bought, mostly from Olaf's A.W. studio, which you can still see if you go to the review forum. I didn't seem to get very many replies, or even views here, so when I found out about D.S. and it's much more active member base, I just sort of migrated over to there. I never thought there was anything wrong with this board, it just seemed a bit dead, and I wasn't going to bother doing twice the work to post a review on two different boards when no one was looking at one of them.

It's not looking good for old Geno, though, so seeing as members have already started to trickle over to this board again, I shall begin posting reviews of vids when I can here. I really hope this board gets the second chance it deserves and blooms into the "go to" place for this type of content. Best of luck, Blue. I will try to contribute when I can, and hopefully breathe a little wind into it's sails.

Glad you're looking to put the reviews up here, Indie... I've enjoyed them, and was hoping they didn't just disappear with the collapse of DS.

[indiefilmfan]

Thanks Tommy. That means a great deal coming from you.

As far as this site goes, I saw it mentioned on another site (don’t remember which one) and visited to check it out.

For the broader community, most found me instead of the other way around since I had what was probably one of the original portals to this type of material when the internet began to expand.

I started off with a simple website posting fictional stories I had written, complimented by pictures I had converted to digital format from the material of the day- magazines and pamphlets. It was fun but a lot of work using notepad in Windows and having to type in every html tag.

Before long others began wanting to share stories they had written so I added a section for them to post their stories and link to their sites if they had one.

Not long after that I met my ex, introduced her to it, and she was hooked. She enjoyed posing in perilous situations, loved playing dead, and had a variety of favorites of how she was killed. We eventually removed the old pictures and replaced them with ones of her, which was nice because we could make them fit into the stories better.

She loved the feedback from visitors and eventually with encouragement (begging) from them began to pose nude. Our effects sucked, they were really dreadful, as were our props, but she was a petite 18 year old blonde haired green eyed brick house so our visitors were quite forgiving of our ketchup blood and such. (On a side note, she would do group chats so the visitors could talk to her, but was deaf as a rock so I always sat off camera to interpret what they were saying then she would respond.)

The site exploded at that point but we had never thought of monetizing it until producers and other sites (mostly startups back then) began to offer money to put banners on our site. Before long we had all the big names advertising so we got to know them quite well and like Bubba Gump Shrimp we were a household name.

After having a couple of kids we shut down the site and a couple more kids after that unfortunately split up (though we are still amicable to this day).

So anyway, that is how I got involved in the community and know so many of the old timers.

I found the community at large by searching constantly on the early web. First Necrobabes, Ruemorgue, then many boards and groups devoted to sharing info and clips from film. Cinemorgue, Big O's, Nyghtfall's mIRC site, Kiyomi's death board... Later I found a lot of smaller groups all over the world that shared clips and rare movies that were all but impossible to find. (There used to be a Yahoo group, forgot the name, that would e-mail all it's members rare films in hundreds of pieces periodically.) Femmefatalities I found later, after I had begun to share my own clip collections. Seems like the community was much smaller back then, or maybe it's just more concentrated and open now?

I first discovered death fetish material when I happened upon the Psycho Thrillers board. I was hooked, and would soon discover that I could actually commission custom videos. From there I bumped into Chris Corner's site, and from there I was directed to the Fetnoir Board where I comfortably settled in for several years. After Fetnoir's collapse, I looked desperately for another community and I found this place. Still new here, but I've been in the death fetish scene for several years now.

[tommygun]

Great to see you, Nate! You've been a wonderful supporter of a lot of producers' work, and a very insightful commentator on the scene. Thanks!

I am not sure exactly how long I have been coming to Femme Fatalities or even when it was first set up, but I feel it must have been a tip or a mention from either G-Man's old FemmeGore website, or else Geno's Dead Skirts one as I was a member of them back in the mid noughties.

[Awol Nate]

Great to see you, Nate! You've been a wonderful supporter of a lot of producers' work, and a very insightful commentator on the scene. Thanks!

Thanks! I haven't had a chance to sink my teeth into the material you sent me a few weeks ago. I've been CRAZY busy! Someday I'll get to it and it give fair treatment.

am interested in this stuff since i was able to think i guess... about 40 years now... till about 2000 all i had was a collection of videoclips from tv on vhs... then there was my computer and internet and had the idea to start a search for words like "female" "blood" and "death".... my first contact to this community was on g-mans "femmegore"... and i bought some of his "hot lead" and "cold steel" discs... and been posting a bunch of my own collection in his forum... well then... later i found deadskirts and producers like annabelles fantasy, KHP and a few other (now there are even more... bluestone, amazons, kupop, pkf just to name a few... befor all this i was like many of us too... asking myself, if i am the only one in this world... well... now i know, i am NOT lol.... in my real life here in germany none of my friends or family knows about my interests... internet does a lot for us there... finding people with same interests and staying anonymous if need to... could get me into serious trouble here at work if people would know about i think

greetings

So, my background begins in around 1998. I hit puberty early (I was around 11-12 at the time), and was big into cartoons/anime and videogames. And I was quickly discovering that something about "ryona" as I now know it to be known, was really doing it for me. Watching the fatalities in Mortal Kombat games (something I had been doing for years by this point) suddenly had a new meaning, where I was intentionally losing just to see Sonja Blade or Kitana get beaten up, ripped apart, or thrown into a spike pit. Sailor Moon, again a franchise I had been following since 1995 when it was originally airing on USA Network, was now on Toonami and I was rushing home from school to turn it on every afternoon to both see the girls whip monster butt, but also to see which one of them was going to get knocked out today (or, if it was a season finale, seeing how EVERYONE was going to die this time (yes, I knew they were dying, despite the best efforts of the censors) and how they were going to come back). This was also around the time I got Resident Evil 2 and discovered those trademark RE death screams that sound waaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy too much like orgasms! Now, this isn't how I discovered the community. That's still a few years away. It's just setting the groundwork for how I even discovered I had these types of fantasies. Basically, my dick started getting hard around the same time I discovered that there was such a thing as women in peril and it just all kinda went together like strawberries and cream.

Cut to 2005. My fetish had pretty much settled in at this point. I still hadn't quite developed a taste for necro or strangulation yet. My main thing was shooting, stabbing, and of all things burning at the stake (I'm a lifelong devotee of Joan of Arc, so it's natural I guess that her martyrdom would become fetishized in my weird little brain), but I had my type down. Strong woman, usually a warrior or peacekeeper of some kind, getting outdone by a male opponent and then killed off in a metaphorically rich manner. I don't remember how I found it (I think I might have stumbled upon an early version of the site that cataloged all the death fetish sites...what was it called again? I think it was tied to Templar's free art site and I think SexyAmazons?), but somehow some browsing led me to Yahoo Groups, and I ended up finding Secret Agents Do or Die. And I found my home, for many years. It's where I met so many people (Kelli, Lady Ash, Steph, Storm, Ric del Campo, and many more!) that became so important to this community for the very first times. At around the same time, I discovered Vicki's site, and with it her collection of stories (my first real taste of necro that I didn't absolutely loathe but rather enjoyed), her collection of pics from famous movie scenes, and Marc's Time Warp (an interactive story, similar to a visual novel game, with Lissa from Necrobabes), as well as the Necrobabes forums.

And here we are now, some 16 years later. So much has happened since. I feel like I've seen 3 or 4 rises and falls as various platforms and hub sites have come and gone. Right now, with Yahoo Groups finally shutting down, SexyAmazons dead, DS gone, and Fetnoir in temporary limbo, it feels like a fallow period again. But I don't think anyone or anything is ever fully going to get rid of us. I just hope our presence of the surface web comes back big. That we find platforms big enough to support us like Fetnoir, Necrobabes, and Yahoo Groups before. And we need another archive site to serve as a central hub again to point us to places friendly to us. I don't want us driven to the deep web. Because while some places have edgelords pretending to be psycho serial killers for lolz (seriously, I don't take anyone of Vex's board seriously. It's all roleplay. Those people try too hard for it to not be), on the deep web, you get genuine sickos that don't know the difference between a fetish and reality. I'm looking at you, Armin Meiwes.

I don't mean to resurrect a 10-day old thread, but going through this certainly brings back so many memories.

I know my real introduction to the community and its people was G-Man's "Femmegore" forum. It's there I met so many people, some of which are still around today. Sandi, Ric del Campo, Steph, Jessika, Victoria, Vanessa, and even my old "on-screen bestie" Alice/NymphoAlicia. How I ended up at Femmegore, I honestly don't even know, put a lot of thought into it and I can't figure it out. Not sure if I landed there from one of the old Yahoo! Groups. I may have also stumbled upon it from an old dark website hub, was it darksites? I remember it linked sooo many different pages in the death fetish community, sites that come to mind I used to frequent a bit at the time were MikeA's "Amazonia" as well as Scarlet Pimpernel's page and forum, so I could've been led to FG from there as well. I do owe a lot of thanks to Vanessa as well as Alice, as they kept me "in the loop" when there came a new forum, turning me over to DeadSkirts, then when things became a little too... misogynistic, was shown the way to Sadie&Sedira's PoisonedParadigm and then ultimately FetNoir.

Now, with FN stuck in temporary limbo (great words, Mike!), some words passing from the Discord brought me here because I ultimately miss the feeling of a good ol' fashioned web forum. It doesn't hurt to have other alternatives to stay connected with the community that I've been around (perhaps not very much active, but still very much around and observant) since the mid 2000's!

And speaking of nostalgia, I've been going through my old external hard drive, finding many old stories I've written back in those days and man... do I cringe a lot. I don't know if it's older me just embarrassed about younger me, but some of these stories... it's like you can just tell a kid was writing them. Maybe I'll take one of them and re-master it for old times sake.
