Record number: 3676 Title: Buffy the Vampire Slayer Medium: TV Series Actress: Charisma Carpenter Description: Episode: "Some Assembly Required" (2.2) Two of the high school's science guys are working on a variant of the old reanimation scheme - used in many movies. They have been stealing body parts from newly-buried teen girls and are putting them together to produce a suitable mate for an undead guy, the brother of one of them. Cordelia (Carpenter) has just the right face so they manage to capture her in the bleachers during a ball game - suitably dressed in a cheerleader's outfit, which looks good on Cordie. Next thing she wakes up in a disused science lab, having just been strapped down on a gurney and blindfolded. When she persuades her captors to take off the blindfold she screams mightily at what she sees - the disfigured face of her intended husband. The operation is about to proceed (which involves severing her head!) when, wouldn't you know, that annoying Vampire Slayer arrives. During the fight that ensues a fire breaks out and there is a lot of struggling on Cordie's part as she looks like being consumed. She is, of course, saved to continue on her vain way. |

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. |
