This Troma Women In Prison film ticks all of the genre boxes and then some. It takes a while to get going, kicking into gear at about the half-hour mark with the obligatory shower scene, after which it's non-stop trash and sleaze all the way, making it hugely entertaining for fans of exploitation cinema.
Melanie Coll stars as Gillian Kaites, a former undercover cop who is framed by a corrupt sheriff, finding herself thrown behind bars at a women's correctional facility where the warden and staff use the inmates for their own perverted pleasures and to line their pockets.
Here's a quick rundown of some of the delights on offer
Catfights, including a no-holds-barred wrestling match to the death.
Full frontal nudity, most notably from '80s scream queen Michelle Bauer.
A flogging/lesbian sex/rape montage, set to a heavy rock song.
Seedy warden Maxwell (Howard Knight) making snuff movies.
Scar-faced psycho Indian Jud (John Tallman) forcing himself upon innocent inmate Sharon (Elizabeth Carroll).
Elderly white slaver Doc Bass (George Engelson) leering over 17-year-old hottie Holly (Terri Beck).
Jud killing a couple on the highway, setting fire to the man and forcing the woman to crash her car (which explodes).
A violent breakout in which Gillian blasts the deserving guards and warden with a machine gun (resulting in lots of blood!).
High art it most certainly isn't, but for those with a taste for the outrageous, Lust For Freedom is well worth tracking down. I rate it 7.5 out of 10, rounded up to 8 for IMDb.
