Have you ever heard of a burial fetish? You have now... and you're about to discover more about it than you ever wanted to...
Readers alerted us to a website for an independent film production company in Massachusetts that churns out "Damsel in Distress" videos, often featured bound-and-gagged women laying on train tracks or-- and this is what caught our attention-- buried up to their necks in dirt and mud.
For their troubles, these "actresses" are paid the following wages:
- So, if you just want to do a simple feature, sinking up to the neck
(and likely getting rescued!!), you would receive $25 for the feature,
for about 60-70 minutes of your time. We supply all the clothing you
need, except for what you wear underneath (we recommend a simple
bathing suit--one that you don’t mind getting dirty).
- If you want to do a full submergence sinking (your head goes
completely under), you will receive $50 for about 60-70 minutes of your
time. Again, we supply the clothing, except what you wear
underneath--again, we recommend that you bring your own bathing suit.
- Should you wish to bring your own outfit for the video shoot,
we'll pay $10 extra to cover your cleaning. Outfits would have to be
either a skirt with a top, or a dress, plus your own shoes (no
sneakers). Lingerie is also possible, but no pants. We're assuming you
have outfits you don't really wear anymore that would get tossed
anyways. So, you will receive $35 for sinking up to your neck and
bringing your own outfit.
- Finally, if you want to wear your own clothes, and go completely
under, then you would receive $60 for about 60-70 minutes of your time.
Note that, for some of the story lines (for instance, the ruthless
queen of an Egyptian Pharoah, who meets her deserving end in the
shifting sands of the desert) will require special costumes--which we
will provide for you. We would not expect any actress to have this type
of attire.
This film company is catering to a market that includes visitors to... well. Actually, we couldn't find any "burying fetish" websites. Perhaps someone could explain to us how this is just a harmless "fetish" and that there's no reason to freak out over people getting off on burying terrified women "up to their necks."
