Standard WIP that its better part is that awesome exploitation poster. Tracey Bregman gets caught smuggling her man's coke & gets sent to the big house for 1-3 where she encounters just about everything that we see in a typical WIP movie. Sadly it is missing many of the campy elements that I enjoy in these movies like a sex craved warden, group showers & endless cat scraps. Sure it's trashy but hardly the pinnacle that it's sorta advertised as. Has it's moments mostly thanks to Barbara Luna as the head prison bitch & some cat scrapping in the mud as the guards turn the hoses on the inmates. Chained Heat it ain't but what the hell is?

Rated 2 out of 5 stars
