Dolcett

[sincerely_helene]

Work has been post-phoned for the day, so I'm back to torment the lot of ya.

The thing is, I feel the need to make it perfectly clear that this sort of material doesn't "get me off", because some of the posts read as though that is the impression I might be giving. Truth is, I enjoy it because the snuff aspect is daring and unusual, and the background information about the author makes it all the more intreguing to me. For those who have not visited the site, here is a little blurb about him/her.

When Dolcett first began composing these comics, they were done so by requests of the real life female characters seen frequently in the stories (Rebecca included). They were not intended for public view, so the author has struggled to maintain annominity through-out the years, and there has been on-going controversy of whether or not 'he' is in fact even a he. Dolcett has been quoted as admitting his/her style of writing bothers him on a personal level, but what inspires him are the numerous women who actually truely do have the fantasies of which the stories are based.

Though he/she has refused money to continue circulation, he has given permission for the stories to remain online, his only request: to remain annonymous (for obvious reasons.) Dolcett firmly denies the constant alligations that he is female, and says that one of his more popular strips even contains a self portrait, (but I am suspicious.) The freakishly large manhood of his male characters almost seems to be mocking to the gender, and the fact that he so strongly protests the rumors leads me to believe that it is just a tactic to throw people off his trail. It is my belief that the creator of "The Dolcett Archives" (a female) is actually the author him/herself.

For Rhino:

I must admit that I am somewhat suprised over your response. I have seen you fashioning several beautiful drawings containing images of females that would be Dolcet worthy, including a snake emerging from a vagina, and a female being impaled by a tusk.

I find Rhino's observation to be intriguing. None of the women experience terrible pain. I have seen main stream S & M where the characters are drawn & written to experience far more pain than Dolcett's creations.

Intriguing.

Yes - isn't it Farrell artwork where the women have such horrific expressions of pain and humilation?

Terrible stuff.

But rhino - not all the Dolcett women are willing. There are a few storylines where they are kidnapped or captured before they are raped and then spitted alive. (I remember reading one where the woman who was going to be taken next was sobbing because the woman ahead of her was jerking and thrashing as she died.)

Ick.

Well, this is only a theory, but I think it was intentional for the following reasons.

1. Dolcett realized that the females who gave him the ideas wouldn't wish the scenarios to be too terribly traumatic or emotional, because that would take away from the fantasy. Keep in mind that these are people aroused by death, so he likely would want to make the experiance seem somewhat pleasureable for them.

2. If the characters died in a more realistic manner (ei: charred when roasted,) readers wouldn't be as fascinated by the imagery. You will also note that the characters stay alive far longer than would be plausible, even to the point of talking/thinking decapitated heads

3. There is less controversy if the mood is kept light. He is very careful to constantly portray the eager willingness of his volunteers, and and on the rare occasion when it's forced, they wind up enjoying it eventually.

If the characters just became all hysterical then died right away, what would be the erotic appeal to the fetishists? Long after their deminse, you can almost envision them lighting up a cigarette and saying "Well, that was well worth the 'sacrifice'."

Farrel, Bishop to some extent, and several others really do up the pain/humiliation. Dolcett seems to be true to Helen's description and writing fantasy for someone. A fantasy realm where being skerwered dosen't hurt.

... Has anyone seen the movie "A Boy and His Dog" (80's?), with Don Johnson? ...

Further on A Boy And His Dog

As you can see, Harlan Ellison wrote the screenplay of the film (1975), based upon his Nebula Award winning Best Novella of 1969 by the same title. It can be found in his collection entitled The Beast That Shouted Love at the Heart of the World.

A similarly outre sci-fi flick of that year was Soylent Green based on Harry Harrison’s 1966 novel “Make Room! Make Room!”

The Harrison film was drastically altered in the filmed version. I have never encountered the film version of Ellison’s story, so I can’t comment.

Was there a reason why two stories that included cannibalism from that era wound up being filmed, or was that just a sixties thing? Robert A. Heinlein’s Hugo wining Stranger In A Strange, containing ritualized cannibalism was published somewhat earlier (1963) but then Heinlein was always a leader.

P. S. Just remembered Suddenly, Last Summer from 1959. Hey, this could be a movie quiz thread.

I should have really come up with a more apt. title then.

Taking care of my perv credentials

I could never get into Dolcett. The subject matter is of course far off the norm and anyone who uses the comic to get off probably has a twisted sexuality. On the hand of straight up mystique, it's shit as well. The characters are poorly written, every tale ends the same, with the same sexual perversions being explored. It's not even witheringly ironic enough nor shocking enough to merit art.

If you look for the art aspect of Dolcett, that is the notion of taboo taken to extreme or shock in the similar vein as "pisschrist". Then what you need to find is a strip called Doku Doku Ryouki Zukan. This is trainwreck snuff, the images alone enough to give you those special types of nightmares that remain on the back of your mind all day, every day until you take a trepanning drill to your fucking skull. It's not for those looking for erotic by any stretch of the imagination though it uses liberal amounts of sex and nudity.

For comic views on kinks, as in humorous, I usually rely on Sexy Losers and Ghastly's Ghastly Comic: links below. They tackle random shit like necrophilia, scat, hermaphrodites, women who love tentacle rape, the folly of a horny chibi, etc... Good and funny stuff, very well written.

hmmm...not QUITE.
no snakes. Dragon, yes. an OCTOPUS TENTACLE tickling a vagina...and yes she was also being restrained by same octopus...no harm cam eof her.

The rhino horn did not "impale" in th strictest sense..."probed" is more like...she was RIDING it... I am sure it (the horn) was no larger than many porn stars or male lit member members. Again..no harm vame to her...only pleasure.

I am glad you fond them "beautiful"....and i cannot say that I am "above" making such imagery...for now it holds little appeal (SOME, but little).

Hi Rhino,

Your post prompted me back to the Dolcett archives, because it reminded me of an image I seen just the other day. Perhaps it will be more to your liking? Certainly tamer then most of his work. Apologies for misinterpreting your wonderful drawings.

I think I also recall seeing a tusk image by him, but I can't recall where I found it.

Thanks for the heads up on the sites, will be sure to check them out.

Yeah, I understand how the appeal can be lost to some. I used to be a regular visitor to places like rotten.com and the facesofdeath.com site before it was pulled. It has never been about arousal to me, more of a curiousty. I suppose the shock value you mentioned is what holds my interest. At least I admit my fascination. Many are just closet freaks.

Links?

Come on, people!

To the serial killer? Or the beautiful women? Clarity, girl. Specifics. It could mean the difference between a fun dinner date and a date to be dinner.

 

[shereads]

I get it. It's sort of like a "How does Kevin Costner keep getting work?" situation.

Dolcett has carved (pardon the pun) a niche for himself in a very crowded genre.

As much as I despise the term "LOL", I literally just did.

I was going to rush to his defense by commenting that he doesn't ALWAYS spit and roast them, but then I considered my whole "he kills them in many other creative ways" arguement, and figured it might not help my case much.

I've heard the name, and I lead a fairly sheltered porn life outside of Literotica. If I recall, he writes necrophilia stories based on the victims' fantasies. If necrophilia is hard to understand, even more mysterious is the desire to enjoy sex while dead.

Hmm. It is getting late, isn't it...

Hmmm... well, I'm not sure necrophilia would be the proper term in this case, considering his women are usually still alive during the sexual encounters (or at least in most of the strips I have read). They do tend to last alot longer than someone who was just impaled, hung, or decapitated realistically would though, so maybe we are just supposed to assume the male characters are only imagining they are still alive.

I'm going to have to refer to my Websters now, because I can't recall if necrophilia is the actual sex act on a dead person, or just a death fetish in general. I know that is the category his stories are usually found in.

I'm with you on the whole "not enjoying sex much while dead" thing.

I know there is a good pun about the rhino being "horny" in there somewhere, but I'm too tired to come uo with it right now.
