Two women are being taken a police van that will lead them to a women's prison. Right as they are about to board, a cop car pulls up with one more woman to add, Laura. Her first activity at the prison involves getting looked over by Doctor Moran. When everything checks out okay, she's send to her cell. Her cell mate is an older woman by the name of Pelar. She does as she pleases due to being behind bars for the last some odd years. That night, the second in command, Rescaut, brought out two of the prisoners from their cells and had them make love to one another. The entire prison could hear the two moaning, which eventually lead to some of the other cell mates getting intimate. Rescaut ends up breaking up the two she brought out by beating them with a nightstick.
On the morning after, Laura is quietly cleaning the prison halls. She's stopped by two of the female guards and told to dispose of a bucket of feces. Instead of doing so, she throws it on the guards, but is then mauled to the ground by their nightsticks. Somehow she gets the upper hand in the fight, Rescaut put a stop to that very quickly. After the three teamed up her, they threw her in solitary. During her stay in solitary, she gets attacked by a mound of rats. They tear her up, little by little until the guards take her back to her cell. Pelar sees how much pain she's in and thinks of a way to get her to the doctor. She begins to act very sick. When the guards go to her and see that something's wrong, they bring in the doctor. When he notices how battered Laura is, he demands taking her to medical room.
Moran lets Laura in on a little secret. The only reason he's at that prison is because he murdered his wife after she was diagnosed with a deadly illness that would only take a matter of days to kill her. The only way to avoid going to prison was to be a doctor at the one he's currently in. After a couple of days, Laura is put back into labor with the rest of the prisoners. During their work on a rocky mountain side, two of the prisoners get into a fight, one ends up dead. Her friend begins to lose and starts running around screaming. She's eventually silences by a pack of attack dogs that are about to be unleashed on her.
Not too long after, the warden gets a letter in the mail stating that a local newspaper reporter has disguised herself as a criminal to get into a prison to expose the corrupt practices of that prison. The warden immediately suspects Laura as the reporter. After searching her cell, she finds a diary that Laura has been keeping. She's put back into solitary and beaten until she tells about her diary. When she says nothing else, she's tortured in other cruel ways until she blows her cover and tells them about how she's a reporter. With no one on the outside knowing the fake identity Laura presented to the prison, they have her right where they want her.
Lots of female nudity during the whole film, frontal and lower. Which shares its place in intimacy and rape. Those scenes didn't come off as terribly bad, but a better job could have easily been done. About as much violence as sexual acts took place. Numerous amounts of nightstick beatings, fist fights, and the rat attack. The rats feasting on her flesh was well put together. During the attack and the outcome. She really looked as if she just got attacked by a horde of rats. Though during it all it wasn't too clear why she didn't just throw them off of her body. She just sat on the bed, curled up in a blanket and screamed while the rats attacked her. Thankfully the destruction of her body was there to make up for it.
Never really getting into the Women In Prison genre, I still liked the film a good amount. It had an interesting story, which the film followed very well. The warden finding out what was going on, and then figuring out who it was put a nice kick into it all. Also knowing that there really is prisons out there like this gives it another extra punch to it. The usual amount of unnecessary scenes had their toll in the downfall. Such as when the attack dogs were shown, the camera would zoom in on each of their faces. Which made that even worse was that the dogs looked happier than pie. Another camera shot that wasn't needed was whenever a fight would break out, a zoom in on the intercom would appear. A good film for an exploitation fan to check out.
Final Conclusion: 6/10

Not the best WiP flick, but more enjoyable than a
large chunk of them. 7/10.
