What do you think of the masked ball scene in eyes wide shut?

Give me your thoughts and opinions on this.What do you think of the masked ball scene in eyes wide shut?
I found it reminiscent of the eighties movie The Story of O all the way down to the feathered masks and tuxedos. It is nothing new and the fact that so much was made of it is surprising to me. The only thing I found interesting was the complete lack of bondage in that scene. There was group sex but no S%26amp;M, and yet in the end you know there had to be some because the girl ends up dead. I am thinking that is how she died. But aside from the soundtrack there was nothing special about that section of the movie....What do you think of the masked ball scene in eyes wide shut?
I actually found it kind of creepy. It wasn't sexy, just...creepy.
I thought it was a crazy scene because you got tom cruise's character dressing up in a costume (in which he got from an old russian costume shop owner and his hot but strange daughter earlier that night) which looks really cool, and then you got a mansion full of people who are all fully nude and performing an enormous orgy, and finally, you a big room of people who are performing some kind of ritual where he then notices another strange woman in a costume. definitly one of the craziest and most interesting scenes in the movie.
