“Where hot desire melts cold prison steel!” The
'women in prison' genre enjoyed it's heyday during the 1970s and 1980s,
shifting from Nazi camps, sweaty foreign locales, and South East Asian
revolutions, to down-town Los Angeles, criminal conspiracies, and the abused
inmates rioting against an inherently abusive system. Regardless of the framing
– be it the concrete jungle or the actual jungle – copious nudity, savage gal-on-gal
fights, torture, domination, humiliation, drugs, guns, and lead-fuelled
vengeance (or any combination thereof) was the order of the day.
Naturally, with such an influx of 'WIP' films, the quality varied immensely,
but some of the greatest entries included Jack Hill's iconic double-whammy of The
Big Doll House (1971) and The Big Bird Cage (1972), as
well as Paul Nicolas' (real-name Lutz Schaarwachter) 1983 festival of
flesh & action Chained Heat.
