Thoroughly Modern Millie
Day: Tuesday December 31 2013
Time: 1:00 AM Eastern
Channel: Cozi
Record number: 377

Title: Thoroughly Modern Millie (1967)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Unknown

Description: In a sequence near the end, perhaps a dozen extras portraying kidnapped victims of a "white-slavery" ring (the film is a musical set in the 1920s) are shown tied and gagged in various positions in cages, awaiting shipment overseas. The lead character (Julie Andrews), in search of her missing friend (Mary Tyler Moore), comes upon the fireworks warehouse where the women are being held. In the confusion that follows her setting off the fireworks, she frees one woman standing with her hands tied around a bar in front of her cage, then another lying on a bed with her hands tied behind her head. Neither Andrews nor Moore is bound during the scene, but Moore is briefly hand-gagged during a struggle. Earlier in the film there is a scene of the ringleader (Beatrice Lillie) chloroforming one of the victims.

Sinister
Day: Tuesday December 31 2013
Time: 8:00 PM Eastern
Channel: Showtime 2
Record number: 17158

Title: Sinister (2012)
Medium: Movie
Actress: Juliet Rylance, Rachel Konstantin, Lorraine Aceves, unknowns

Description: The beginning of the movie shows four people, the Stevensons, standing in a row with sacks over their heads, hangman's nooses around their necks, and their arms bound behind them. They are standing on a lawn next to a large tree. The nooses' lines are thrown over one branch, and tied to another limb of the tree. That limb breaks and falls, pulling the four up, legs kicking frantically until they stop. The four people are a family: mom (Rachel Konstantin), dad, son, and daughter (unknown actress). This scene is repeated at about 15 min., when Ellison Oswalt (Ethan Hawke) is watching the first of five home movies on 8mm film, and again at 16 min., when he watches it the second time around after getting half sloshed. The scene is shown again on his laptop at about 50 min. You see it again at 68 min. and at 97 min.

At 20 min., Ellison is watching another 8mm home movie that switches over from a wholesome scene to a car all wrapped in chains. The car appears to be inside a garage; it is all dark, and the only light appears to come from a flashlight pointed in the direction the camera is pointing. Inside the car, you see a woman (Lorraine Aceves) in a red dress on the backseat, unconscious, with duct tape around her thighs, around her wrists in front of her, and over her mouth and around her head. In the leg well next to her you see someone's legs also bound in duct tape, and on top of the legs a large red can with the word "FLAMMABLE" on it. The camera moves on to eventually show the front of the car. A few seconds later, a lit match is thrown on the car, and it bursts into flames.

At 27 min., another 8mm home movie, this time showing a nighttime view of a pool, where there are a row of four sunloungers, each with a rope attached to it, each with a cement block tied to it, and each with someone duct-taped to it. The camera angle is such that you can only see the tops of their heads, but as they are pulled into the pool one by one, you can see that the third person pulled in is wearing a blue bikini and has a female form (unknown actress). Blink and you'll miss it. One later finds out that two of the other forms are those of little girls (both unknown).

At 33 min., another 8mm home movie, where the cameraman/killer is moving around in a home. He enters the master bedroom, where a man and a woman are tied to a bed with brown tape, brown tape around their wrists in front of them, and brown tape over their mouths. You see the killer put a knife to the man's throat, then see the reflection off Ellison's glasses of the throat being cut. The same is done to the woman. You catch another glimpse of the woman's bound wrists while Ellison is looking at a reply on his laptop.

At 100 min., Tracy Oswalt (Juliet Rylance) is seen lying on the floor with her arms duct-taped behind her back and her ankles duct-taped together.
