Alt-porn star Joanna Angel hosts the show with adult director Doug Sakmann. The show itself is a demolition derby for tough and randy guys who are willing to trade personal comfort for a chance at a lapdance.
Here's how it works: The Burning Angel models will inflict pain on contestants. If the contestants last long enough, they win a nude lapdance from one or more of the women. If they don't make it, all of the women give Angel a lapdance.
Nick Esposito created the show and directed the pilot, which he based on a stage show that he and the Burning Angel models performed along the east coast in various clubs. Esposito told XBIZ that for the actual pilot, he and his crew were able to expand on their format to include more elaborate sets and pain games.
Esposito also praised HotMovies.com and BurningAngel.com for giving his company, Back Seat Conception, a vehicle to turn a quick profit.
"Making a pilot is normally a long process, but with Hot Movies and Burning Angel, we'll actually be able to make some money off the pilot," he said.
Burning Angel regular Sabrina Sparx got onstage for the second episode and tormented contestants with rods, water balloons and speaker wire.
But she told XBIZ that her favorite part of "Strip for Pain" involved punching a six-foot, heavyset man in the stomach while he tried to eat mushrooms. The man wound up vomiting after leaving the stage.
"Even though I'm a little girl, I'm strong," she said.
"This show is really fun and really different," Sparx said. "It's like 'Jackass,' but with hot girls inflicting pain instead of a bunch of guys."
