Werewolf in a Womens Prison

From the campy beginning to the suspenseful ending, A dual horror theme like this is rarely seen anymore. As in dual, I mean the terror of being put into a sadistic women's prison from the perspective of the main actress to the terror of the inmates getting ripped in half. I expected a half-done low budget porn but what I got was a well-made exploitation horror at its campiest.

Most Noted are the performances from Victoria De Mare (Sarah Ragdale) and Jackeline Olivier (Rita). Ms. De Mare gives it her all as she expresses all the emotions into what her character might be feeling step by step in all of these events. And Rita plays her part absolutely sadistically with some of the best maniacal laughs on her part.

As for any criticizing goes for this film, It could be released with an R if it were mainstream. Fangoria compares the film to Showgirls of recent Sexploitation/horror. However, there is suggestive sexual situations, a lesbian sex scene topless nudity abound, there is no actual full frontal nudity.

As for violence this film hits the g-spot. Its almost as if they keep us satisfied with the nudity and sex until the skin comes off and the blood starts flowing. This is almost par to the mask movie where all hell breaks loose when Jim Carrey puts on the mask. I'll tell you this, you're just gonna have to see it to believe it. The violence is just that good. I can't wait to see what this film company does if they have a bit more money to spend.

I didn't really agree with the spoof of an American Werewolf in Londan but it worked good in this film and it was funny lol.

I give this film a 4 claws way up. Suggestions I would have for sequels could be A Vampire in a Vixen's Hell or A Mummy in a Madam's Brothel. LOL. Hope the DVD sells well. It's definitely worth the wait and money.

Two of my favourite movie sub-genres—'werewolves' and 'women-in-prison'—are rolled into one in this low budget and deliberately trashy effort that aims to answer the question 'What would happen if a lycanthrope was incarcerated in an all-female correctional facility?'.

Victoria De Mare plays Sarah Ragdale, a young woman whose romantic camping holiday with her boyfriend turns into a nightmare when a werewolf rudely interrupts their fun. Narrowly surviving a savage attack, Sarah awakens to find herself an inmate in a filthy prison run by a corrupt warden and his masochistic assistant, having been wrongly convicted of killing her lover (whose body was found torn to pieces).

Obviously one of the few people who hasn't seen 'An American Werewolf in London', Sarah is shocked when her dead boyfriend pays her a visit to explain that, since she is the survivor of a werewolf bite, the next full moon will see her transforming into a 7 foot tall, slavering beast with a hunger for flesh—succulent, female prisoner flesh!!

Packed with wall-to-wall nudity and a whole heap of shoddy but gruesome effects, Werewolf in a Women's Prison is camp schlock horror that is knowingly awful—and for most of its running time, it proves to be pretty good fun: the women are all good looking and more than willing to strip off for the camera and indulge in a spot of soft-core lesbianism; the wolf itself is hilariously bad (the monster comes complete with glowing red light-bulb eyes); and the bloodletting is gloriously OTT (if not too convincing)—heads are torn off, limbs are ripped out, and one victim is even bisected when pulled through her cell bars by the beast.

Sometimes the humour is a little laboured, the cribs from 'An American Werewolf in London' are a little too blatant, and, towards the end, the novelty of the film's intentional cheesiness does begin to wear a bit thin, but if you're in the mood for a mindless slice of sexy and gory silliness, you could do worse. A lot worse. Trust me, I know!

6.5 out of 10, rounded up to 7 for IMDb.

This is one of the best movies ever. Yes, it's not for everyone, and yes there will be people that hate it, but it's pure nirvana for fans of low-budget, old-school, exploitation flicks. If you like the kind of stuff Something Weird Video puts out, if you like Troma flicks, If you liked The Halfway House then you should be grooving on this one.

The title says it all, there's a werewolf and she's in women's prison. Fans of American Werewold in London will find something to appreciate here, but I won't spoil it. Fans of nudie exploit movies will be happy as well as there is a plentiful display of female attributes.

I was pleasantly surprised to see Bernadette Perez who was in a few of the older flicks from The Asylum in which she supplied some of the nudity. Sadly she remained clothed in this (WTF is up with that anyway?).

I have only one real negative criticism of the film, and that is that it didn't have a shower scene. Every fan of women in prison (WIP) flicks knows that a shower scene is one of the most important scenes in the genre and so I felt a bit let down. I will mostly overlook the transgression because of a lot of assorted nudity throughout but it's the only thing holding it back from a 10 for me.

The gore is mostly pretty good and plentiful, though low-budget and cheesy. There was a little wince-worthy cgi at the end which would have been much better as practical f/x, but for the most part I liked the gore.

So for folks who like this kind of stuff (and you know who you are), then you will want to see this post haste as it is one of the finest example of the genre in years.

First things first, this is obviously a very low budget movie. Not that that is necessarily a bad thing, but you get what you can expect from something like that: cheesy acting, poor camera work and sound, and some laughable special effects.

That being said, it was decently made for what they had to work with. On to the actual contents of the movie: with a title like this, you know beforehand what you'll get - And in that respect, this movie definitely doesn't disappoint. The title is cheesy, and says it all: A woman only prison being plagued by a werewolf menace. The story is thin but decently executed, and they actually made some effort of keeping it going when they were not preoccupied by having a drawn out chase scene or getting down&dirty with each other.

Lots of gore, lots of blood, lots of female nudity and lots of sex. It's like visiting the 70's all over again. If you're fond on this kind of movie, it's decent enough to watch. If you want to have a laugh at how cheesy it is, definitely go for it! It gets a 5 out of 10 from me, for taking something predictable and making it halfway decent.

A bad movie is not the same thing as a campy sendup of bad movies. This seems intended as the latter, but it's mostly just the former. There's some amusingly over-the-top gore; but overall the script isn't nearly funny enough to excuse/offset the amateurish production values, contemptable performances and dull softcore exploitation.

All of the praise I've seen for this movie is qualified with the caveat "considering the shoestring budget." It may be true that the filmmakers exceeded expectations given their limited financial resources, but that has nothing to do with the salient questions of "is it entertaining?" and "should I spend my time watching it?" My answer is "no," not unless you just like really bad movies.
