I think part of the "hot" factor is that if you know how to walk in them, they add a lot of ba-boom to the way your hips and ass move.
I rarely wear heels, but I will admit that a nice pair of spikes has its points. (Um ... sorry.) I don't currently own pump heels, but I have a pair of low boots with a 2" spike that are pretty righteous. IMO, the way to wear heels is to stride -- if the click of the heels doesn't sound mildly intimidating, I figure I'm doing it wrong. If you've ever read Terry Pratchett's Going Postal, I favor the Little Lucretia-type spike.
