Evelyne Kraft stars in Mighty Peking Man, which was "inspired" by King Kong. Released in 1977, this film feels more like it was "inspired" by the 1976 Kong remake.
Miss Kraft plays a jungle girl who lives with King Kong...uh, I mean, she lives with Mighty Peking Man in the jungles when they are discovered.
Miss Kraft's character needs to be rescued from time to time.
And that includes being evacuated aboard the resident wildlife.
They also have some time to frolic with the wildlife, as well.
Miss Kraft goes barefoot throughout all of Mighty Peking Man's running time, which makes this one of my favorite films.
In the Gunsmoke episode The Wiving, several women are rudely woken up by a group of cowboys who're looking for wives.
The problem is these guys are not exactly courting these women, they are being taken against their will. The girls are all bound and gagged, to be more precise.
They're stashed in the back of a horse-pulled cart like so much produce. A nice little BF bondage scene from a classic TV western series. You can see the clip right here.
Rulah the jungle girl wakes up to find herself tied up--which is a predicament that my own jungle girl, Ryta, finds herself in a great deal of the time in her books. I'm busy working on the latest Ryta book right now, which offers more excitement and high adventure (and tie up scenes, plenty more tie up scenes).
The Ryta saga begins with her very first adventure, which you can get here.
Allie was on her way to work one morning when she was caught in traffic...by aliens. She wakes up bound gagged and helpless in a very strange place. Find out what happens to Allie in my latest Poser picture right here.
This snazzy new poster for Rise of Skywalker, the reportedly final saga film in the Star Wars film series, has been released. And all I can really say is....
I can't wait for The Mandalorian.
Watching the trailer for the new live-action series The Mandalorian gave me the same chills and excitement that I felt when I first saw the trailers for The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. It truly feels like we're returning to a "long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away." The fact that The Mandalorian takes place right after the events of Return of the Jedi, during the original saga timeline, really appeals to me.
Maybe the powers that be at Disney made a mistake when they started making Star Wars sequels that took place thirty years after the original saga timeline. Maybe they should have stayed within the original saga timeline--like what Rogue One and Solo did; both Rogue One and Solo wound up being my favorite of the newer Star Wars films produced by Disney.
I realize they had no choice but to set the new saga films thirty years ahead, since the original actors were that much older. But, having re-watched The Force Awakens recently, I feel as if they really should have had Han, Luke, and Leia all together for one last ride in that film, side by side with the newer characters, and passing on the torch to them--Rey and the others would have taken over in the rest of the new trilogy.
Still, I look forward to seeing The Rise of Skywalker; I hope it's a grand and proper end to the Skywalker saga. But I'm really looking forward to enjoying The Mandalorian in the comfort of my own home. I want to see more of this wondrous galaxy that George Lucas gave us.
In the movie Bad Samaritan, a man inadvertently finds a woman who is being held captive.
She's bound and gagged in extreme fashion to a chair. I haven't seen this movie yet, but this scene really makes me want to.
The damsel is played by actress Kerry Condon, who you might recognize if you're a fan of the Marvel movies.
In addition to many other roles in film and TV, Condon also provides the voice for Friday, the AI in Tony Stark's Iron Man suit in the Marvel superhero films, starting from Avengers: Age of Ultron.
When I first heard about Greta, about a young woman named Frances (played by Chloë Grace Moretz) being stalked by a psychopath named Greta (played by Isabelle Huppert), I wondered why this wasn't just released to the Lifetime Channel, since the plot sounded like one of their potboiler movies.
But once I actually saw it, I liked Greta a great deal. It's directed by Neil Jordan (The Crying Game, Interview With The Vampire) with great skill and finesse. And Chloë Grace Moretz turns in a great performance, as does Isabelle Huppert as Greta and Maika Monroe (It Follows, Tau) as Frances' roommate).
What uplifts Greta from the average Lifetime flick (which are fun in their own right) is that it's very smart, with the characters wisely responding to threatening situations in ways that make sense. And yet it's still very suspenseful.
Greta has a bondage scene featuring Chloë Grace Moretz near the end. She's tied to a bed, gagged, and struggles mightily. The only problem with this scene is that it's very dark...literally, it's too dark to see anything (I've brightened the screen shots here).
Still, aside from the fact that CGM is barefoot when tied to the bed, Greta also has a lot of very nice BF scenes throughout the film. Greta is highly recommended overall as an enjoyable and satisfying thriller.
Kristen Stewart stars in Underwater, a an SF/horror film about a group of researchers on the bottom of the ocean who encounter some weird creepy-crawlies. It releases in January of 2020.
I'm looking forward to this. I've long been a fan of underwater films, having seen (and loved) The Abyss, Leviathan, Deep Star Six, Sphere, and Jurassic World (which had a memorable undersea dinosaur). And I've put many underwater scenes and sea monsters in my Ryta The Jungle Girl books, including the latest Ryta book that I'm working on now.
Wendy realized that she should have gone to her exercise class, but when she spotted Carla, a person of interest who was acting suspiciously, she decided to follow her. Big mistake; Wendy should have gone to her exercise class. Find out what happened to Wendy in my latest Poser picture right here.
And what a nice looking spellcaster she is, too. This is from the French/Belgian fantasy comic called Thorgal, written by Jean Van Hamme and drawn by Grzegorz Rosiński.
While it looks like Thorgal is coming to this young lady's rescue, Thorgal had better watch his back, because the last panel shows what looks like a viking getting ready to attack. Never a dull moment in these fantasy stories.
This series is still in print. You can find the books (in English) right here.
A pair of women in this Asian production find themselves bound and gagged with a bomb about to go off right next to them (wow, if there ever was a clear sign that somebody doesn't like you, this is it, huh?).
One of the tied ladies tries to move her chair closer to the light switch in an effort to get the attention of a neighbor in this Film or TV show that I don't know the name of. But you can still view the clip of this scene right here.
The Adventurer: Curse of the Midas Box was a solid action/adventure film that was released in 2014. It starred Sam Neil (Jurassic Park) as the villain. He's seen here gloating about his master plans to his captive, played by Keeley Hawes.
Hawes gets mummified later in the film, but this scene is my favorite from this movie. I love how dignified and defiant she tries to be, despite the fact that she's bound and gagged, and not joining in on the meal that the dastardly Neil is enjoying.
Darlene finds herself tied to a support column with a large wooden crate behind her. And there's something very angry inside the box, constantly pounding to get out. See the excitement for yourself in my latest Poser picture right here.
I was in a store the other day, and they already had an entire shelf stocked with Halloween Candy. They were clearing the summer items from another shelf area to make room for the Halloween decorations.
The Prestige was a great movie about two rival magicians in late nineteenth century London that was directed by Christopher Nolan (the Dark Knight trilogy).
Piper Perabo stars as a magician's assistant who gets tied up and has to escape from a water tank.
Perabo is shown being tied up on stage by two "volunteers" (actually a pair of magicians planted in the audience0.
I've long been a fan of women getting tied up in magic acts--especially if they're barefoot, as Piper is here.
The Prestige gives another example where a trick is completely reliant on the assistant, who does all the work in escaping.
The Prestige is an excellent movie overall, and is highly recommended.
This is from an unknown movie from Germany (I think). This clip has the title "Weirdest Movie Scream Ever". And yeah, the dude screams really loud and it's weird sounding enough.
But he has good reason to, considering the bomb that's strapped to his BF girlfriend, who had been trussed up hand and foot and gagged, first.
I tried looking this up, but have no clue as to what this scene is from. If anybody has any ideas, please feel free to let me know in the comments. Meanwhile, you can get the clip right here.
