He grabs her and shows her a knife so she won't scream then ties her hands together to the headboard. After this, an aerial view shows that her ankles are tied spread to the bedposts (but the lighting is kind of dark). He then stabs her (but it's not shown, thank goodness). WARNING -- the subsequent police investigation at the crime scene shows lots of blood. |

The Adventures of Hajji Baba |
Day: Friday January 14 2011 |
Time: 12:30 PM Eastern |
Channel: FMC |
Record number: 420 Title: The Adventures of Hajji Baba (1954) Medium: Movie Actress: Laurette Luez, Elaine Stewart, Amanda Blake, many others Description: In this colorful adventure set in Persia during the times of the Caliphs, the beautiful Princess Fazia learns that an escort provided by her intended husband, the evil Nur-el-Din, is waiting for her at a nearby oasis. With the aid of her chief handmaiden Meriam (Luez), she escapes from the palace, but the Caliph's Chief Executioner soon learns of the scheme. At about the 20 minute mark (no commericals), poor Meriam is shown lying on the Princess' bed with her ankles bound with plenty of rope, her wrists apparently tied behind her. One of the executioner's bully boys flogs the girl's feet and after fifteen seconds, Meriam agrees to talk. Meriam is wearing a standard harem girl costume - flowing skirt and bra with plenty of mid-rift showing. This scene is shot entirely from the end and slightly above the bed, essentially from the torturer's viewpoint. Halfway through the film, Princess Fazia (Stewart) finds herself in desperate peril. In the searing desert heat, the lovely and shapely brunette (Stewart) is hung by the wrists with leather straps attached to a horizontal pole by henchman of Banah (Blake), the leader of a gang of the bandit women. She is not gagged. When we first see Fazia's predicament, her toes are supported by a large rock. As she suffers from lack of water her evil rival taunts her, kicks the rock out from under her feet and spins the helpless victim. She is rescued by the title hero (John Derek), but is soon recaptured and strung up again; this time Hajji Baba shares her torment. Both sleeves of her tight, white shirt have been torn away. She's wearing bagging linen pants which billow slightly in the breeze. There's a full body shot that shows she is bound, and tightly and as she spins we see no evidence of a supporting harness - it appears she is really strung up by her wrists. Action starts at the 49 minute mark and lasts on and off for ten minutes when she and the hero are finally rescued. In the meantime (at the 56 minute mark), Banah is captured by the evil sultan and dragged into his presence with her wrists bound. In the background we see a number of her captured followers with their wrists also bound in front. This scene lasts for about a minute. One of Banah's captives informs the sultan of the Princess' predicament and he sends swift rider to affect the rescue. About the 83 minute mark we see Banah and several dozen of her followers with their ankles shackled to a long pole, sweltering on the desert sand. Hajji arranges for their guards to drink drugged wine and, with the aid of a dancing girl, releases and arms the warrior women to battle the sultan's men. This sequence of scenes lasts for about 75 seconds. While the film itself isn't much, the set of bondage scenes make it a true classic. |

Victorious |
Day: Friday January 14 2011 |
Time: 7:30 PM Eastern |
Channel: Nick |
Record number: 15185 Title: Victorious Medium: TV Series Actress: Daniella Monet Description: Episode: Freak the Freak Out (1x13) Victoria is taking care of her older sister, Trina (Daniella Monet), after getting her wisdom teeth taking out. After putting up with her demands the whole night, the next morning Victoria's friends come over. Trina is tied up and gagged with duct tape. She is laying on a table, out cold, duct tape gagged; wrists tied in front, and ankles tied. To note, she looks awful because the character is sick, and also no closeups, just distance shots. She actually is not out cold at the end when the stupid friends are struggling with the knots. She is even fighting with one of them while she is still gagged, but she makes no attempt to engage in dialogue. On the up side-she looks cute with the tape gag, and a surprise scene in a tween show is always welcome. |
