| Blind Obsession |
| Day: Monday August 01 2011 |
| Time: 6:00 AM Eastern |
| Channel: LMN |

Record number: 5827 Title: Blind Obsession (2001) Medium: TV Movie Actress: Megan Gallagher Description: Rebecca Rose (Gallagher) runs afoul of her maniacal sister, who is jealous of her and her blind boyfriend. In the final 30 minutes, Rebecca is knocked out by said sister (Roxana Zal). The scene begins with a close-up of Gallager awakening and finding herself bound to a chair. Her wrists are crossed and secured with duct tape behind her back and her feet (she is wearing black boots) are also taped together. There is much dialogue between the sisters, including a demand by Rebecca to "untie me now!". Gallagher is eventually tape gagged. There is plenty of "mmmphing" and two close-ups of her bound wrists. When the boyfriend turns up looking for her, the sister gags her with more tape to keep her silent. She scoots her chair to a radiator and there are several side views of her sawing the tape against metal to free herself. She eventually takes the tape off her feet and mouth and is briefly shown with tape still clinging to her wrists while rushing to rescue her boyfriend. Rebecca is wearing a red V-neck sweater top, black pants and the aforementioned boots. |

Record number: 12466 Title: The Signal (2007) Medium: Movie Actress: Anessa Ramsey, Tristan Towne, Unknown Description: In this horror flick about a mysterious transmission that makes people homocidal, it's not always apparent who's "got the crazy," which provides a number of opportunities for the unafflicted to tie people up. Two of these are women: female lead Ramsey (playing "Mya") and Towne, who is credited as "Ducktaped Girl" and seen only in one brief shot. Both are bound and gagged with duct tape, with their hands in front and more tape holding their arms to their sides. Ramsey's scene lasts maybe half a minute, with the gag coming off about halfway through. Both scenes are in the first of three "transmissions" or segments that make up the film. There are also some brief bondage shots in an introductory segment. One woman is handcuffed with her hands over her head; another woman tries to free her but can't locate the key. A third woman (or possibly one of the first two?) is tied in the same position as Ramsey and Towne, but with barbed wire instead of duct tape. Ouch. No gags in these early scenes, and it probably won't be clear to the typical viewer what they have to do with the rest of the film. Not much, it turns out: based on the Sundance Q&A, it's basically an inside joke in which the directors used an excerpt from their earlier short film as an example of a crappy horror movie playing on the television before the Signal kicks in. It wouldn't surprise me if some or all of this sequence didn't make it to the final cut, but, fingers crossed. Anessa Ramsey also gets hand gagged around the 19 minute mark. |

Record number: 11871 Title: Firewall (2006) Medium: Movie Actress: Virginia Madsen, Carly Shcroeder, Mary Lyn Rajskub Description: Madsen and Schroeder are the kidnapped wife and daughter of Harrison Ford in this thriller. The villains have taken Madsen and Shcroeder (along with Ford's son) hostage to force Ford to help them rob the bank. When Ford first comes home, he finds Madsen and Schroeder tied with cable ties and gagged with clear tape on the couch. He instantly ungags them. A little under an hour later the villains try doublecrossing Ford and take the hostages away in a van. When we see them in the van, they are bound and gagged as they originally were. Ford turns to Mary Lynn Rajskub for help but not before having to handgag her and tell her what's going on. He taps into a computer and takes back the money he robbed for them. Madsen is ungagged so she can talk to Ford over the phone but remains bound for most of the rest of the movie. Shcroeder stays gagged for a while longer until her brother starts hyperventilating and one of the crooks ungags them. A decent bunch of scenes and its neat to see clear tape used for a gag for a change of pace. First scene on the couch is at 17:20 (there 'bouts), not at the 30-minute mark. The next scene, in the van, is at 1:19:57, not at just under the hour mark. Incidently, this scene is AFTER the handgag scene with Mary Lynn Rajskub, not before. Virginia is ungagged & tossed out of the van at the 1:27:00 minute mark. We then see shots of Carly, still tape gagged, at the following times: 1:27:19, 1:28:00, 1:30:11 (for 3 quick shots of her in the background, as Virginia is trying to get their dog to quit barking at the kidnappers while they are driving) 1:31:22, 1:31:50, 1:32:45 and from 1:33:24 until 1:34:05, when she is ungagged. All remain bound for the next 5 minutes or so, then the rough & tumble climax begins & all are freed. |
