As these "women in prison" movies go, not too bad and competently made. Forgot this was the follow-up to The Big Doll House so wish I had watched that one first (part of the "Women in Cages Collection") but will check that one out tomorrow. Decent and satisfying enough and Anitra Ford, Pam Grier and Sid Haig were a lot of fun to watch. **3.0/5**
