Audience Member Lots of sleaze and Linda Blair. I leaned that women's prisons are full of lesbians. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Finally gave it a spin off the To-Watch Pile and I have to say that it was as much sleazy exploitation fun as you'd expect. Linda Blair's sleazy output from around this time period is a lot of fun, and this is a very typical Women In Prison outing, so you know exactly what you're in for from the first frame. Rental! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review bill t Entertaining enough, since it's got every single actor you would expect from a movie like this, from Linda Blair to Sybil Danning. Also, Henry Silva! Also, Stella Stevens! This is sleaze all the way through, though it appears that the copy I watched could have been edited to reduce the violence. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member This trashy 80s exploitation flick is almost impossible to defend but equally as difficult to hate. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Rare women in prison film with a well known cast - John Vernon, Sybil Danning, Henry Silva all in support. Linda Blair stars as a naive new prisoner who ends up uniting warring racial factions in a riot against the usual corrupt administrators. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member An exploitation classic. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews

Synopsis Sentenced to 18 months in prison for vehicular manslaughter, naïve Carol Henderson (Linda Blair) gets thrown into unexpected depravity, protected only by hardened fellow inmate Val (Sharon Hughes). Overseen by the sleazy, sex-obsessed warden, Bacman (John Vernon), the prison's population is split into rival gangs run by the Duchess (Tamara Dobson) and Ericka (Sybil Danning). Meanwhile, corrupt guard Capt. Taylor (Stella Stevens) is running a drug-dealing and prostitution ring.
