Record number: 4362 Title: The Lost World Medium: TV Series Actress: Jennifer O'Dell Description: Episode: "Trophies" Captured by a fortune hunter, Veronica (O'Dell) spends most of the last half hour wth her hands tied behind her back and with a giant metal scissor-like collar locked around her neck. No gag. The collar is at the end of a long metal pole which her captors use to lead her around by walking behind her and pushing her forward. A couple of closeups of her bound hands. |

| Woman on the Run: The Lawrencia Bambenek Story |
| Day: Sunday September 30 2001 |
| Time: 6 pm EST |
| Channel: Lifetime |
| Note that scenes occur in first 15 minutes and last fifteen minutes and nowhere in between this four hour movie. Might extend your record times a bit to be sure. |

Record number: 1184 Title: Woman On The Run: The Lawrencia Bembenek Story Medium: TV Movie Actress: Tatum O'Neal Description: This four-hour miniseries has two sets of scenes featuring Tatum O'Neal in chains, one in the first fifteen minutes of the movie, the second set in the last fifteen minutes -- with no scenes, absolutely none, in the 3 1/2 hours between. In the opening scenes of the movie, O'Neal is transferred to U.S. customs by Canadian police officers (she's a prisoner on the lam who got caught). The Canadian cops let her walk free, but right in the middle of the airport the U.S. officers open up a great big duffle bag full of chains and proceed to manacle her wrists and shackle her ankles. Then there's a long shot of her walking with chains clinking everywhere with everyone staring at her. In the second set of scenes, a judge orders her shackled and cuffed whenever she leaves her cell, and there's shots of her meeting with her lawyers and parents in chains. Because the movie is basically a tearjerker, there's a lot of emphasis on the chains in the scenes which have them. A second TV movie about Bembenek exists, called Calendar Girl, Cop, Killer? The Bambi Bembenek Story. Haven't seen it, so I can't comment on it.

Record number: 1385 Title: Last Rites (1998) Medium: Movie Actress: Unknown Description: At about 50 minutes into the film, there are two very brief shots-the first a full-face closeup-of an unidentified actress, playing a teen-age abductee, in jeans and a knit top, lying on a bed cleave-gagged with a rolled-up red scarf, as FBI agents burst into the house trailer where she's being held to rescue her. It's implied her hands are tied behind her, but no ropes are visible. When this aired on LIFETIME (with ads, naturally), the scene time was around 65 minutes in. |

Record number: 4578 Title: Firestarter (1984) Medium: Movie Actress: Heather Locklear, Drew Barrymore Description: Vickie McGee (Locklear), Charlene "Charlie" McGee's (Barrymore) mother, is found tied standing up with a cloth in her mouth. It's a very short scene, which is probably for the better, because the character is dead when discovered this way. Its fairly near the beginning of the movie as I recollect. Later in the film Charlie is chloroformed. |

| Time: 9pm ET/PT |
| Channel: ABC |
| A very likely alert for the series premiere of ALIAS starring Jennifer Garner tonight. A few folks over on Ain't It Cool have screened the pilot and reported that the heroine is involved in a torture scene interspersed throughout the entire show. Ms. Garner is supposedly restrained to a chair while the baddies perform some unscheduled dental work.
Note, that this pilot actually runs 70 minutes long (w/o commercials!), so if you're taping it, make sure you set your VCRs to run over. |
