Blackmale
Day: Wednesday February 20 2002
Time: 3:10am EST
Channel: HBO Zone
Action in the last half.
Record number: 4078

Title: BlackMale (2000)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Robin Paris

Description: Basically this 'thriller' is a silly mess, HOWEVER, about two-thirds of the way thru, Roger Rees (from "Cheers", remember?), as a crack-smoking British serial killer in California, takes over the house of a middle-aged couple, kills their son and daughter-in-law, and ties the unlucky husband and wife to two antique chairs, using cloth bindings at wrists, elbows, knees, and ankles. For gagsters, he uses a rather unique technique: thick and long plastic bags (rather like heavy-duty dry cleaning bags) wrapped severely between the jaws and around the heads. Then he begins to take target practice at the pair, using a golf club and balls. This insures plenty of muffled alarm cries. As I said, it's really a fairly awful movie -- seems to have been improvised during shooting by folks with no talent for improvisation --, but it contains those few seconds of interest within its interminable ninety minutes for those who want to look for them.

Star Trek: Voyager "Shattered"
Day: Wednesday February 20 2002
Time: 10PM PST
Channel: KBHK
KBHK is the Bay Area UPN affiliate. Check local listings.
Record number: 4149

Title: Star Trek: Voyager (1995)
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Kate Mulgrew

Description: Episode: "Shattered" (7.11)

An officer from Voyager's future travels back in time then takes Captain Janeway (Mulgrew)
along with him back thru time portals (or something like that). Along the way they venture into the oldtime serial movie portal where Captain Janeway is captured and strapped to a laboratory gurney. She gets out of her predicament by playing along with the villain's idea that she is his lover Arachnia, Queen of the Spider People.

Elements of Kate's scene:
1. 1940's serial movie atmosphere - she is snatched by a big clunky robot of the 40's serial movie variety.
2. Strapped to a gurney.
3. Unfortunately most of the camerawork during this scene stays above the point of restraint.

Title: Stargate SG-1
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Amanda Tapping

Description: Episode: "Emancipation" (1.4)

Kidnapped by a tribesman with some very peculiar opinions about females (every woman has to be veiled), Tapping, dressed in an oriental costume, is taken along on a horse, her hands tied in front with thick rope and cleave-gagged under her veil. We actually see her gag taken off twice, and at the first time she spits out a wad of cloth that's been used as packing. Nice touch; what makes it a failure in the end is the incredible brevity of the two scenes.

Now available on DVD.

Zorro, Shadow of Doubt
Day: Wednesday February 20 2002
Time: 1AM EST
Channel: Disney
Record number: 3230

Title: Zorro (1957)
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Myrna Fahey

Description: Episode: "Shadow of Doubt" (1.14)

Maria Crespo, a woman working at the tavern knows too much about the murder of the new Commandante At around the ten minute mark or so, she is handgagged by the villain (at this point his true intentions aren't known to her). Later, she is grabbed, overgagged on screen with a wide blue cloth, and hustled into a coach by Robin Hughes and Jack Elam.

Zorro gives chase, and rescues her after her captor leaps off the coach and leaves her to her apparent doom hurtling along a cliffside road. There are a good number of shots of her inside the coach, with the stagecoach bouncing so much that her skirt covers her face and another as her gagged face stares apprehensively from the window at the cliff yawning beyond the side of the road.

Action occurs around halfway in and continues almost to the end of the episode. A very nice scene overall. There are both color and black-and-white versions.

This scene is also described in the entry for Zorro The Avenger, a compilation film from the series.

There's also a brief handgagging of Ms. Fahey in a separate scene before the climactic sequence. Look for it sometime after the 5' mark.
