Bruce M Pretty boring, not good as an homage to or ss a satire of women in prison movies. Terrific music, though. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/12/25 Full Review Audience Member Going into this, I thought I'd be getting a pure exploitation flick from the bygone women-in-prison genre. You know the type, brutal warden, sexy gals, at least 2 of them are lesbians. You get more than you bargain for with this one. It's dramatic, the characters are pretty well fleshed out (pardon the pun), it's sexy (of course) and the whole thing is done in a very retro style, with 50s credits and everything. It's an honest love letter to a bygone genre, in the same way that Tarantino did with Jackie Brown as a blaxploitation homage. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member What's supposed to be a homage to the "women in prison" genre fails miserably. It's boring, awful and the women in prison are not even hot. Ugh! This movie isn't even the good side of awful. If you are gng to be bad, you have to be entertainingly bad. That's at least the the requirement for low-budget b movies. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member I feel I need to come to this movies defense after reading lewiskendell's review because I think he completely missed the point. This movie was an homage to a specific genre, and I can understand how (if you were not familiar with WIP's) you may become confused. The actresses in this movie are amazing. They really brought out the heightened acting style found in the WIP's. As for the accent comment, I hate to break this to lewiskendell, but I looked it up and the lead actress (Starina Johnson) is from the south. I think he may be misunderstanding that she apparently did research on the genre style and incorporated it. I know in this age of actresses playing themselves that can be confusing for some, but there are actual actors out there who work and research a project. I wonder if he noticed all the other actresses accents were a bit heightened as well? Perhaps lewiskendell feels that, unless all the actresses are doing a Mississippi accent they are fake (even though this film was set in Georgia). His comment reminded me of the idiots who criticized Leslie Mann in Funny People for her "bad Australian accent" even though it was obvious she was trying to do it badly. My only beef with the movie was it seemed to drag in places. I think with another round of edits this movie would have been even more powerful. Jane Wiedlin was funny, and the scene between Daisy and Dutch was almost hot enough to turn me straight. And who doesn't love any movie that can bring both Mink Stole and Karen Black together? Overall I liked it, and the audience in the theater when I saw it loved it. Maybe it's just one of those movies that's more fun in a group to see and repeat lines from later. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member Movie dragged quite a bit. Not sure what this movie was supposed to be - comedy/drama?? I guess if you saw the old black and white prison movie, you could relate. Stacy Cunningham was very good. Her performance made the movie somewhat worth watching. Got better as the movie moved along, but I didn't like the ending. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Kind of a surprise here. Very well acted film. Starina Johnson was excellent and I think we'll be seeing much more of her in the future. Susan Traylor, Jane Wiedlin and one of my favorites, Mink Stole did an excellent job as well. Shot in black & white in a film noir style. Not a very happy film, but very well done. Great production values. I will be checking out some of Steve Balderson's other films.
