The traditional wooden horsetorture originated in Japan during the Edo period, where it was used (Iam told) as a punishment for christian missionaries. I have received someinformation on the origins by viewers of thissite, for which I am very grateful. Please feel free to contribute your knowledge by email or at the group!
A wooden horse, Chevalet (as it was called in Spain), Spanish donkey or cavaletto squarciapalle, is a torture device, of which there exist two variations; both inflict pain by using the subject's own weight by keeping the legs open, tied with ropes from above, while lowering down the subject.[1] The French called this instrument the chevalet, from the French diminutive of cheval, horse.[2]
Japanese Wooden Horse Torture
The first variation of the wooden horse is a triangular device with one end of the triangle pointing upward, mounted on a sawhorse-like support. The victim is made to straddle the triangular "horse." Weights or additional restraints were often added to keep the victim from falling off. A punishment similar to this called "riding the rail" was used during the American colonial period and later. The victim was often carried through town in this predicament, often in conjunction with the punishment of tarring and feathering. The crotch could be injured and the victim left unable to walk without pain.
Nami is a masochistic high school student who is attacked and almost raped by a gang of hoodlums before being rescued by handsome teacher Muraki. The near-miss triggers bizarre hallucinations in Nami, and she imagines herself engaged in various S&M situations with Muraki, in which she is beaten, forced to urinate, and tortured on the titular wooden horse. The hallucinations grow progressively more real (and exciting) to Nami, and soon Muraki is accused of raping her and loses his teaching position.
I wrote about this one before, read here. I showed it to a friend last night and he actually quite liked it. It is still one of my favorite Nikkatsu Roman Pornos. Titillating, pervy, exquisitely shot with a surreal, dream-like atmosphere. The ending here is especially satisfying. The only thing that is irritating, is that there is hardly any wooden horse torture. But who cares if the rest is so fantastically sleazy and pleasing to watch. Nikkatsu explorers, check this one out ASAP!
The Spanish donkey might sound like an overpriced cocktail, but the pain it delivered was far worse than a hangover. Otherwise known as the wooden horse or chevalet, it was a torture device utilized by Jesuits, Civil War soldiers, and even Paul Revere himself.
