Stumbled upon this website, not sure if anyone can help solve this. Internet searches turn up nothing. I think this was a movie, not a tv show or miniseries (please correct me if I’m wrong). It was in American English, definitely in color. Probably made in the 80s (because of the hair, the woman I will describe later had what looked to be vaguely 80s hair, but not overly so. Am open to it possibly being late 70s), but I saw it on tv when I was in elementary school. It may have been circa 1992-1994 when I saw it. I remember watching scenes of Child’s Play during the same year on tv.

What I remember is a woman is walking around what looks like an office building, could also be a warehouse or some large storage space. I think I remember filing cabinets and stacks of paper. She has no weapon or gear. Just an ordinary woman. Anyway, she apparently wasn’t supposed to be there because all of a sudden she’s surrounded by a bunch of men (also other ordinary looking men, not dressed in any uniform, but t shirts and jeans) and she tries to run away from them, but since there are too many of them, she is eventually caught and they put a piece of tape (for some reason I distinctly remember a bandaid, but let’s go with tape) over her mouth. I’m not sure if they restrain her in some other way, but she’s overpowered and they take her away. No fade to black, it goes to the next scene right away, like a jump cut, I think.

This next scene is weird, but I’ll describe it as best as I can. There is what looks to be fabric of some sort so that it takes up the whole screen, I think it may have been the woman’s underwear while she was still wearing it, which makes the next part of the scene even weirder. Someone takes a red wax crayon and either marks a big V or X over the center of the fabric (that’s on the screen) and then the same hand then takes scissors and starts cutting through the fabric. There’s no pan out to see what’s going on, just this close up on this fabric and the hand that’s doing whatever it is doing.

I don’t remember anything after that. It’s the weirdest scene that still sticks with me about two decades later and I still haven’t the vaguest clue what movie it was. I’m pretty sure I wasn’t supposed to see such a movie at my age at that time but obviously as a kid you don’t know that. I just want to know what these scenes were from because this will come up in my head every now and then and drive me crazy. If it’s a tv show or something else that’s not a movie, please correct me. I don’t have any hopes of this being solved, but would appreciate any legitimate suggestions. Thanks.
