Women In Cages

Boiling passions confined behind concrete walls. Naked lust that builds to a deadly climax.

An innocent woman is arrested for possession of heroin. Her guilty boyfriend tells her to be silent and he will get her out. She definitely says nothing in her defense and gets 20 years in prison.

In prison, the head matron is a black lesbian American, named Alabama (Pam Grier). She takes pleasure in alternately loving and torturing the prisoners while paying a local bandit gang to retrieve escapees. The gang tortures the escaped prisoners and brings them back dead for the rewards.

Ultimately, three of the major characters (one is Alabama’s former lover) escape and take Alabama with them as hostage. Tracked by the gang she once hired, Alabama and her lover are on the run for their lives.

This women’s prison epic serves up action-packed, juicy fare and shows Pam Grier at her heyday best.
