McGyver - Deadly Dreams
Day: Thursday July 11 2002
Time: 11:00am E.D.T.
Channel: WGN
It's superstation WGN, not local Chicago.
This is a good'un!
Record number: 2231

Title: MacGyver
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Kim Zimmer

Description: Episode: "Deadly Dreams" (4.7)

MacGyver gets involved with the search for an escaped serial killer who is actually a pawn for a imprisoned psychopath, Dr. Zito. The evil doctor is intent on revenge against a policewoman, Lt. Murphy (Zimmer), who put him behind bars. Dr. Zito has convinced the naive escapee that if he kills a Viking queen, he can go to Valhalla. He is convinced that Murphy is that queen, so he kidnaps her, binds her wrists behind her back/around an I-beam and then cleave gags her with black cloth. A rope around her thighs further secures her to the beam. To create the proper Viking atmosphere the escapee rigs an elaborate time bomb to blow them both up in a gasoline-fed funeral pyre. Sounds like a job for MacGyver!
Extended set of scenes starting about halfway through the episode. Zimmer does a nice job alternating between defiance and fear.

Baywatch - Stranger Among Us
Day: Thursday July 11 2002
Time: 5:00pm, (Fri) 1:00am E.D.T.
Channel: TNN
--
Record number: 38

Title: Baywatch
Medium: TV Series
Actress: Nicole Eggert

Description: Episode: "Strangers Among Us" (3.14)

Unbeknownst to Summer (Eggert), the surfboard in her trailer has a fortune of diamonds built into the board. The villianess gets the drop on her and leaves her cleave gagged with a scarf and bound with more scarves to the arms and legs of a chair. Before making her getaway the villianess turns on a tank of propane, cuts the hose connecting it to the stove and makes a sort of fuse using a cigarette burning towards a bunch of matches. Our heroine desperately tries to inch the chair towards the matchbook, but tips the chair over instead. Just when it looks like my favorite Baywatch cutie is going up in a ball of flame, the hero (if that's what you call the twerp) bursts into the trailer. He wants to remove the gag (idiot!) but Summer mmmphs and jerks her head towards the burning cigarette. The hero douses the ciggybutt with water from a flower vase. He then starts to untie her, when another hero-type enters the trailer and says, "Oh, isn't this kinky!"

Scene occurs in the last twelve minutes or so of the episode and runs on and off for about eight minutes. Very nice scene. Nicole is a real cutie.

Post Mortem: Der Nutten Mörder
Day: Thursday July 11 2002
Time: 1:00am PST
Channel: Encore Mysteries
Also airing on the 16, 17, 20, 28, & 29 July in case you miss it.

Record number: 6940

Title: Post Mortem: Der Nutten Mörder (1997)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Annette Frier, Edda Leesch, unknown

Description: This story about the search for a serial killer who likes to dress call girls in kink gear, tie them up spreadeagled and then kill them is full of bondage imagery, though some of them involve dead women as you might expect in a movie about forensic investigators.

The first victim, Frier, is chloroformed in a lengthy scene with lots of struggling. She's next seen tied spreadeagled to a bed in a leather boustier, wearing knee-high leather boots, but her face is obscured by a plastic bag which has been used to strangle her.

Throughout the rest of the movie, the investigators spend a lot of time looking at and showing each other pictures of Frier and other victims similarly restrained.

A hysterical prostitute calls out that the killer is attacking one of the women in the bordello, and the house goons break in and find the gal cuffed arms overhead (and perhaps her legs are tied as well). Her face is obscured in part by a lot fo what appears to be whipped cream, and the goon attack the john, despite the chained prostitute's protests that he's a regular customer. She's dressed in a boustier and stockings.

Finally, an attractive female police investigator (Leesch) is captured by the killer and tied spreadeagled to a bed. He also cuts off her blouse to reveal a nice purple bra. This is a lengthy scene, well lit and with closeups as Leesch talks with her killer and tries to psych him out. Finally the killer wraps a plastic bag over her head to kill her. As she struggles to breathe a rescuer crashes through a window into the room. He fights with the villain and manages to break free just long enough to tear a hole in the plastic over her mouth so she can breathe. Finally he subdues the villain and frees the damsel.

All the scenes in this German production are well-lit and lengthy, very generous compared to the underlit, fleeting scenes that are typical of current U.S. productions.

I found this movie on The Mystery Channel in the U.S.

It'll be interesting to see what survives the TBS uptight brigade.
Record number: 347

Title: L.A. Confidential (1997)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Marisol Sanchez

Description: Ms. Sanchez's character has been raped and held prisoner for several days (and looks it-- it's not a terribly sexy scene) when we see her: she's spreadeagled to a filthy bed, and cleave-gagged. The scene's one nice touch is the way she uses her eyes to signal the bad guy's location to the cop who has come to rescue her.

Unfortunately, I think you're right about Horror 101, Madfish. I got the info out of my Digital Cable TV Guide for the month of July, but when I checked on-screen Digital TV menu for Thursday night, Sci-Fi is listed as showing a different movie at that time. Shame, really. It's a cute little scene.

Experiment in Terror
Day: Thursday July 11 2002
Time: 5:10 a.m. EST

This film is supposed to have a lengthy and very strong handgag scene, for those who like them.
Record number: 5656

Title: Experiment in Terror (1962)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Lee Remick

Description: Kelly Sherwood (Remick) is on the receiving end of the mother of all handgags from psycho Garland Humphrey 'Red' Lynch (Ross Martin) while he explains his evil plan to her. She either embezzles a small fortune, or her vulnerable younger sister (the nubile Stefanie Powers) will come to grevious harm. Remick's terror-stricken eyes above Martin's gloved hand perfectly transmit her fear.

This one is also being shown at 2am the next day(or later that night, however you wanna look at it). For those not in the know somewhere in the last third of the movie there's an excellent scene of a woman and her two daughters getting taped to chairs. Even though it's not a long scene it's attraction for me has always been the chance to see the wrap around the head tapegag that is so rarely scene, particularly when the women are long haired as is here.
