Outer limits |
Day: Monday February 19 2007 |
Time: 3 am est |
Channel: Sci Fi |
Record number: 6495
Title: The Outer Limits (1995) Medium: TV Series Actress: Rhonda Dent Description: Episode: "Dark Child" (7.20) Pretty Rhonda Dent plays the youthful version of Nora Dunn's character Laura who is having flashbacks to her past when she was a victim of an alien abduction. There are a number of short flashbacks, spread throughout the episode, in which young Laura is seen restrained to a table, clad only in her panties, while aliens do their usual probings and big-eyed staring bit. Though the scenes are short, Rhonda struggles and emotes quite well in her too few moments of onscreen time. Hopefully someone in Hollywood noticed her natural DiD acting abilities and will get her a juicier role in the future, preferably in the very near future of course. |

Full treatment scenes in this tourist horror flick |
Record number: 11607 Title: Wolf Creek (2005) Medium: Movie Actress: Cassandra Magrath, Kestie Morassi Description: Chilling Naturalistic Horror movie about 3 tourists (2 female, 1 fella) in the Australian outback who fall foul of an evil Crocodile Dundee. About 50 minutes in they are secretly drugged, and fall asleep. Cut to Magrath who comes to in a shed, her wrists are tightly bound palms together in front of her and her ankles tied, both with black plastic ties and there is a cloth gag between her teeth. As realization dawns she pulls the gag free then struggles and tests her bonds,even attempting to open the door and escape while bound. Lighting in this scene suggests a full day passes before she finds a shard of glass on the floor and cuts herself free with it. Magrath is wearing grey combats and a blue t-shirt, no shoes. On escaping she follows the sound of screaming and sees Morassi in a corrugated iron building, she is wearing nothing but a bloodstained shirt, her hands bound around the back of a metal post. Her captor is torturing her both mentally and physically while she begs him to stop. When Magrath creates a diversion the man cleve gags Morassi and goes to investigate. Magrath enters the shed and tries to calm her now hysterical friend but is forced to hide when the man returns. While he taunts Morassi some more she grabs his gun, shooting him. She unties Morassi's hands but Morassi struggles to remove her gag. I would add that the caveat that this second scene has an unpleasant and sadistic nature that may not be to everyone's taste |
Halfway House |
Day: Monday February 19 2007 |
Time: 2:30 a.m. CST |
Channel: The Movie Channel |
Multiple scenes, no gag |
Record number: 11917 Title: The Halfway House (2004) Medium: Movie Actress: Ashley Rhea, Monica Shere, Athena Demos, Stephanie Leighs, Janet Tracy Keijser Description: Direct-to-video "horror comedy" with Mary Woronov as a nun running a home for wayward young women as a cover for a human-sacrifice cult. In four separate sequences throughout the film victims are spreadeagled on a circular altar in the home's basement, nude except for their panties, to be fed to a preposterous-looking monster unleashed upon them from behind a steel door. The first (Rhea) is grabbed while jogging during the opening credits, about two minutes in. Shere's turn starts at about half an hour, followd by Demos at about 54 minutes. The sequence with Leighs begins at approximately an hour and eight minutes and runs to the end of the film, incorporating scenes of Keijser briefly having her wrists tied behind her before being rescued and coming to Leighs' aid. For those to whom it's important, there are no gags and Leighs' character is the only one to survive her encounter with the beast, although this movie clearly isn't at all intended to be taken seriously, as evidence by the lame bondage and even lamer dialogue (Woronov after one "feeding": "If we get any more runaways, we'll have to put him on a diet."). |
