Record number: 1398

Title: Hostage Hotel (AKA Hard Time: Hostage Hotel) (1999)
Medium: TV Movie
Actress: Danielle Harris, Elizabeth Dennehy, Debra Christofferson

Description: They're the daughter by a previous marriage, wife, and aide, respectively, of a congressman giving a speech in an old hotel being renovated, and are taken captive by a deranged veteran and his slow-witted sidekick. Harris gets grabbed first about 20 minutes in, being hand-gagged by the lead baddie who slips in behind her and an escort while touring the hotel. He and his partner take her to the room where her mother and the aide are working, bursting in and taking them captive as well, tying their hands in front and then lashing their bound wrists together with a short cord, but not gagging them. The daughter is tied standing with her hands behind her back, lashed to a rope tossed over a pipe above her, then she's stuff-gagged with a red cloth that conveniently happens to be lying close by.

Later in the film, the lead baddie gets rough with the mother and slaps her a couple of times after she begs him not to throw her stepdaughter out of the window with a note taped to her body-as he had done with the aide-but to take her instead. By this time, the daughter has been tied to the arms of a wooden chair by her wrists and ungagged. Before the daughter takes flight, however, hero Burt Reynolds and his buddy show up, necessitating a change of plans. As the mother escapes, the baddie takes the daughter to the basement, where he sits her in a chair, lashing her wrists together in front again and stuff-gagging her once more with another convenient red cloth.
