WHY'D I WATCH IT?
After watching Savage Streets and wanting to see more Linda Blair, I realized she stars in The Exorcist.
So I watched this movie.
WHAT'D I THINK? *SPOILERS*

WHAT'D I THINK? *SPOILERS*
A Roach.
About as plain and transparently marketed as you can get, it's Linda Blair in a Women-In-Prison movie and all said it's about as middle of the road as I expected. A lot of nudity. A lot of not-quite-sex. A lot of implied rape. Bitches knifin' bitches. Wholesome stuff.
Linda plays Main Girl, or in this case Prison Virgin who accidentally killed a man and she's awful sad about it and to be honest it's kind of hard to watch sometimes because she genuinely looks like she's on the brink of tears most times. She doesn't overdo it either, but that level of acting doesn't extend far to the other cast, nor does it really have to.
The movie makes a point of setting up how the corrupt-as-**** Warden is selling dope amongst the prisoners (somehow) and that there's a competing better dope distributer in the ranks answering to his second-in-command and her two-timing prison doctor boyfriend both with respective slutty snitches (who are bitches... itchin' for some stitches) and allies who get killed for threatening the economy or lookin' at each other wrong. At first I worry it's going to get over-complicated, but no, sure enough, it mostly resolves into "what's that? one of the inmates got a glasglow smile? eh, rape her" and that's pretty much the movie.
At least there's a black vs. white subplot that resolves all roses and sprinkles, nothing brings races together like throwin' bitches off buildings and stabbin' rapists in the throat.
Yeah, I know that one of them tried to rape you and killed multiple other inmates, but stop, we're havin' a moment here.
The physical acting is really off, especially when The Nicest Slut In The World gets killed. Like, what happened? One second Guard Lady is holding her up against the wall with her nightstick pressed in her mouth, cut away, now she's dead. How'd she die? Better Google it.
I'm sure I'm not on a list anywhere.
Anyway, it was an okay movie. Nothing great about it, but surprisingly little to complain about either.
