Director: Jonathan Demme
Genres: Crime
Rating:
Considered the quintessential "girls in prison" flick of the 1970s, novice director Jonathan_Demme's Caged Heat is set in a hellish American woman's penitentiary run by vicious, wheelchair-bound Barbara_Steele. Statuesque convict Erica_Gavin is forced to undergo horrible (but legal) tortures when she is falsely accused of trying to escape. Gavin and fellow con Juanita_Brown decide to make a real break, but return to prison to rescue a friend who is about to be lobotomized by the sadistic prison doctor. Then they stage a robbery, only to find a group of male robbers at the bank ahead of them. A final shootout in the prison yards brings the film to a bloody climax. Caged Heat was also released under the title Renegade Girls. Hal Erickson, Rovi
