When female inmates Lee Daniels (a former harem girl) and Karen Brent (a revolutionary) don't get along and cause a mess, they are chained together in an attempt to a forced get-along by their sadistic matron Densmore. Even so, they manage to escape in the vast wilderness of Philippines jungle and in their attempts to save their lives they bring a hot escalation in the war between local revolutionaries and gangsters.
Better than average attempt at a Women-In-Prison film by Eddie Romero. Interesting plot and sets (Philippines bring another air of decadence in the mood of the film for me), quality acting and tons of exploitation. Female violence, lesbianism and sadism, nudity, oppressive conditions and more violence!
Top-notch performances by top-notch exploitation actors Lynn Borden, Margaret Markov, Sid Haig and the goddess Pam Grier. I may be predisposed about her but the fact is that without her this movie would suck (more than it does--in the good way) like so many others. Her dark complexion goes perfect in the natural green environment and of course you can't say female power without her name in the same sentence.
Must watch this : after a good Sunday lunch when you just want to chill. Invite a female friend and let her demonstrate her wrestling skills and power on you. Goes well with a cold, cheap beer.
