“...the huge bullwhip strikes at her naked, sweat soaked body, wrapping itself around her stomach like a venomous snake. The stinging pain shoots through her. She can hardly catch her breath before she feels the next strike. Carla watches herself in the carefully placed mirror. She sees the tell-tale red marks across her beautiful outstretched body. She is slowly being broken. She feels aroused , ashamed and humiliated but still she can’t stop looking at herself in the mirror...”

When Sylvia's car breaks down in a dark country lane, she soon finds herself surrounded by a bunch of inbred woodland peasants who want to take advantage of her. She sees them off and runs into the wood, but soon they catch up with her and extract a humiliating punishment. She is whipped, stripped naked and whipped again and then whipped some more until she achieves a rather mighty orgasm. At first the peasants seem to be the culprits but then a strange dark character arrives with a real sense of menace, he is the Fantom Whipper.

Sylvia is now in hospital tied to a bed and gagged, she has become addicted to whipping and will punish herself if left unattended. Detective Lucie Novak is sent to investigate this outrageous crime only to find herself drawn into a masochistic world of pain and pleasure orchestrated by the enigmatic Fantom Whipper.

After experienced a long and prolonged whipping and a creative exploration with a whip handle by the Whipper, she becomes hopelessly addicted to the pleasures of the lash. In her new submissive role she agrees do anything for her new found master as long as she can achieve another intense orgasm from his merciless bullwhip. It seems once you have tasted the pleasures of the whip, nothing else will suffice.

When she is found tied, naked and beaten in the forest, her superiors are none too pleased and she is discharged from the police force. Soon she makes friends with the sophisticated Maria Markovska and together they discover their mutual interest.

Mark of the Whip is a stylized and beautiful filmed exploration of pleasure and pain. It is filled to the brim with sex, eroticism and whipping. The bondage and whipping scenes are interspersed with scenes of sensuality, eroticism and explicit sex (including hardcore sex and lesbian scenes) which creates a heady mix of desire and dominance. The careful balancing of sensuality and sex with the sado-erotic makes the film very successful and quite unique. While the acting may be average, the cinematography and score of the film are quite superior and sustain the mood right through the film.

The combination of suspense, sex and sadism makes this a very unusual film; the whippings scenes are prolonged and impressively realistic, offering a powerful and erotic exploration of pleasure and pain. Mark of the Whip pushes outside traditional genres and offers an interesting new approach to sex, crime and bondage cinema.
