The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Day: Friday October 23 2015
Time: 10:30 PM Eastern
Channel: TCM
Record number: 978

Title: The Hunchback of Notre Dame (1939)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Maureen O'Hara

Description: This is probably the version of the story in which Esmeralda spends the most time in bondage. O'Hara portrays her sitting with her hands tied behind her back throughout the trial, both before and after the torture scene, which is depicted in a wide shot from above in a rather non-explicit manner. At the end of the trial, the king visits the courtroom, and orders her untied so he can perform a trial by ordeal on her. He blindfolds her and asks her to choose between her alleged murder weapon and his dagger on a table before her. She touches her own knife, failing the test, and later is carted to the scaffold and mounts it with her hands tied behind her back, but they are untied when Quasimodo (Charles Laughton) swings down from above in the famous rescue scene.

Bad Blood (2015)
Day: Friday October 23 2015
Time: 10:00PM E.D.T.
Channel: Lifetime Movie Network
~
Record number: 19362

Title: Bad Blood (2014)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Jessica Gardner, Carly Chaikin, Taylor Cole

Description: This Lifetime feature opens with Nicole (Gardner) strapped to a chair and cleave gagged with a white cloth, in a trailer set up for medical procedures. Her husband (a crazed serial killer) comes in with some tea, then proceeds to drain her blood. A muffled squeal from her ends the scene (and unfortunately her life) at 3mins without commercials.

At 21mins, Lauren (Cole) is arrested on suspicion of several murders. Her hands are cuffed behind her back onscreen and she is led away to a police station. After they are done questioning her and charges are laid, she is taken to a cruiser (now wearing an orange jumpsuit) with her hands cuffed again at 26mins. The ride to jail goes smoothly until the killer strikes again: he sets up a road block and spike strip to cause the car to leave the road. A terrified Lauren, still cuffed in the back seat, can only watch as he approaches the car and blasts the lone female officer with a shotgun. He then injects Lauren with a sedative to end the sequence at 28mins.

Immediately afterwards, she awakens in a house in the wilderness. Multiple close-ups reveal that she is sitting on a chair, hands securely cuffed behind her to the backrest, feet tied to the chair legs with black rope, and very tightly cleave gagged with a dark red bandanna (so tight that her teeth are clenched over it). The chair is also chained to a closet. After a while he slowly ungags her, with some drool visible on the cloth as he leaves it around her neck. She is bemused at his crazy reasons for kidnapping her and tries to scream, so he re-gags her onscreen. Some gag-talk and lots of desperate mmpphhing from the helpless captive.

She is left alone to struggle at 33-34mins, and we are indeed treated to an excellent struggle. It takes some furious effort and muffled grunting (with strained expressions aplenty over the gag), but she eventually manages to break the backrest and slip the cuffs under her butt. The untying of her feet is shown, but not when she ungags herself. When the killer returns, she uses a spade (hands still cuffed in front) to knock him out, steal his keys and make a break for it. Once out in the woods, she unlocks the cuffs and tosses them away to finally end her scene at 36mins.

At 51-52mins, Frances (Chaikin) finds herself bound to the same chair as Nicole; her hands are tied to the armrests with white rope, feet strapped together, and she is cleave gagged with a thin white cloth. The killer starts to draw her blood at 59mins, but not enough at this point to kill her. Thanks to a long search (and being on the run), Lauren discovers her at 1hr 9mins. She is barely conscious, but comes around when Lauren ungags and begins to untie her. Unfortunately the killer was waiting for her, and he sprays both of them with a knockout gas.

When Lauren wakes up, she has been rendered even more helpless than before: lying face down and strapped full spreadeagle to an operating table, she is also cleave gagged with a thin white cloth and a wide strip of duct tape over that. Her struggles (and mmpphhing) prove utterly futile as the killer cuts open the back of her shirt in preparation for a nasty procedure to drain her spinal fluid. In the background, Frances is still bound to the chair and has been re-gagged. Just as things begin to look very grim for Lauren, police officer Tommy (Christine Adams) shoots her way in. Frances then ungags and unties Lauren at 1hr 13mins.
