Review of Flame Review by Davemeister, video by Builtmore Welllllllll, How many of you have been wondering where the heck the amazon movies are? You know what I mean, videos that feature strong, muscular women in entertaining story lines, rather than just strict posing. For those of you that are in the mood for such a video, Builtmore Production's "Flame" is just the tape for you. This is a one hour film which features one of the toughest women in the bodybuilding world. You may remember Flame from S.M.O.'s Super Sampler video, which I reviewed several months ago. Well, this tape really showcases Flame's talents as both a bodybuilder, and as a writer. That's right, the script for this film was written by Flame herself! The story has a young man, named Gary, playing at his computer. He is playing a video game that features Flame. All of a sudden something goes wrong, and Flame appears in his bedroom, right next to him! Needless to say, her character is quite, ahem, different. She demands to know why he has summoned her, and Flame asks him for money or jewels in exchange for her services (which are combat related guys!) He only has his allowance, which does not seem to be enough for this muscular redhead. He tells her how another guy is making the moves on his female friend, who I gather he would like to be his girlfriend. All the while, Flame wraps a snake around her neck and body and seems entranced by it! The scenes where she holds the snake reveal her great arms, which have some great peaked biceps. Of course, her whole body is covered in tattoos, which definately separates Flame from the rest of the pack! The next scene has Flame and a bunch of warriors fighting out in wild country. These scenes are great, as they are complete with authentic armour, weapons, and yes, horses! The warriors ride around on horses, and the action in this scene is beyond compare in any of the productions I've seen to date. Flame is confronted by a huge creature, wrapped in armour from head to toe. They weild their swords and fight each other, until Flame is able to sneak up behind him (it?) and jump on its back and kill it. The scene ends with the creature's decapitated arm oozing with blood. Not for the squeamish. When Flame returns to Gary's house, he offers her some jewels so that she can teach him to become a great warrior. She throws him on a bed and straddles him and gives some neat dialog about her turning him into a real man. Some fun stuff ensues. However, she eventually "turns" on Gary and starts attacking him. He can't figure out why she is hunting him down trying to kill him, but she just laughs and continues to charge at him. They fight each other with swords, inside and out (where a swimming pool lurks in the background...obviously going to come into play!) She kicks his butt repeatedly, and at one point she comments that she is disgusted that he is not fighting back. She wants him to be a tough warrior, like he is supposed to be. Eventually she knocks him into the pool (like I predicted!) and then he swims out and tries to run into the house. But he can't get in, and so Flame states that she is willing to fight him without weapons. That is when the best fighting scene occurs. He charges her and, get ready for this, she picks him up and gives him a full bodyslam! YOUCH!!! She then straddles him and starts strangling him, among other things. He fights back by grabbing a dagger from her belt, and jabs it into her leg. After they both struggle to their feet, Flame congratulates him on becoming a warrior. The scene fades and we see Gary calling talking to (guess who?) on the phone. Meanwhile, Flame has returned to her, uh, dimension, which leads to a series of events, such as when Flame kicks a certain warrior's a__ in! Great scene, especially watching her biceps explode as she tightens the pressure around his head, with her vice-like grip. Ahh, but the plot thickens, because Flame hires a beautiful blonde girl to make a love potion which will force Gary to fall in love with his friend. Meanwhile, Flame wants another guy for herself. Geez, sounds like a soap opera huh? Well, it may very well be, but this soap's got somethin' we all love. Female Amazon Power!!! The storyline is quite interesting, and complex enough that you may want to view it a second (and third, and fourth!) time to fully understand everything. Don't worry, I won't ruin the ending, but needless to say, what Flame wants, Flame gets (hint, hint!) I was thoroughly pleased by the action and excitement which this video provided. It was a nice change from the more traditional muscle posing tapes. Of course, it would have been made even better if Flame would have slammed him over and over and over again...but that's just a tiny gripe. For muscle enthusiasts that crave action and excitement, you can't do much better than Flame. Get your copy from www.builtmore.com and see what I'm talking about!
