1,000 Convicts and a Woman!

I enjoyed the movie overall, except one thing, Hay's laugh. It was so forced and so 70s in it sound that it grated on the nerves by the time the movie was half over. Otherwise, I didn't have too many issues with the story, the acting was generally 70 camp - and I didn't have an issue with it. Hay plays the seductress well enough, and she shows skin in several scenes it isn't over the top and most of the sex is offscreen and what is onscreen is typical show nothing.

Overall, the movie holds together on its premise, but I just couldn't abide the horrendous laugh that seems to permeate the movie with no real reason most of the time.

The gorgeous Alexandra Hay, who sadly died only 49 years old, convincingly plays a nymphet terrorising the warders and inmates of a peculiarly liberal prison. It's an inviting set up and there could be few more enticing exploitation subjects, and until it rather runs out of steam, this movie is quite fun. Hay, who shows a bit of flesh but not lots, plays her character to the max and there's one speech from her in which she succinctly describes herself, the best lines of the movie. Pleasingly sleazy and very 1971, 1,000 Convicts (aka Fun And Games) passes the time. The film has some resemblance to the director's Virgin Witch, although it's not as sexy as that movie.

Playing games is always fun. You just have to be a good sport about it. In "1000 Convicts and a Woman", the stakes are high. Alexandra Hay, (Skidoo) plays Angela Thorn, an American student whose father runs a prison in London. Little does he know about her daughter that she's a nympho maniac(an oversexed individual). While arriving in London, she undresses in the car while the driver nearly has a wreck. Her promiscuity causes quite a stir in the prison. You have many prisoners break their sense of concentration of their duties, and the guards aren't immune either. Even outside the prison, she turned a lot of heads. After dropping a handkerchief on the floor, that prisoner keeps its in a box. So when she went to his cell to get it back, he wants her panties in return. But he gets a tease instead. Head games is what Angela is doing there. Everyone in the prison is the pawn, and the results are a checkmate. This movie puts "The Crush" to shame. It's a great British film with a touch of American flare. And it's a cult classic. If you thought that "Skidoo" was something, this movie tops it! 4.5 out of 5 stars.

The plot of "Fun and Games" admittedly may sounds genius if it were an X-rated adult movie, but for a regular film it's honestly too thin. Perhaps it still could have worked as a juvenile and harmless sex-comedy, in the style of "Porky's" or "The Cheerleaders", but it's not sleazy and light-hearted enough for that. In the end, it's a rather boring and frustratingly tame semi-exploitation effort with a couple of neat (but unelaborated) ideas and a breathtakingly gorgeous lead actress (Alexandra Hay) who sadly doesn't show enough nudity. She - Angela - is the 17-year-old-daughter of the head-warden of an experimental government prison, who returns home to England after having spent four years at a boarding school in Boston. During her period in the states, Angela turned into a curvaceous young woman and she developed an insatiable craving for male attention and sex. She likes nothing better than to seduce men with her long blond hair and ravishing body, which obviously leads to problematic situations in an all-male prison institution. Angela's "shenanigans" mainly exist of walking by men that gaze at her, and then she starts laughing like a spoiled little brat. The climax, during which she's taken hostage by two inmates while they escape, is incredibly implausible and borderline pathetic.

1,000 Convicts and a Woman (Tubi) is a movie that I recently watched on Tubi and tells the tale of a college aged young lady who returns home to her prison warden father. The young lady is looking for a "good time" and the prisoners and prison staff may be just what she's looking for...

This movie is directed by Ray Austin (House of the Living Dead) and stars Alexandra Hay (Guess Who's Coming to Dinner), Sandor Eles (Love and Death), Harry Baird (The Italian Job), Tracy Reed (Casino Royale) and Robert Brown (License to Kill).

Alexandra Hay's casting is spot-on for this genre, and she delivers an exploitation performance flawlessly. While the scenarios and circumstances may not feel realistic, the main character, albeit annoying, is hard to resist. The unpredictable situations make for intriguing viewing, and Harry Baird also provides a commendable supporting performance. However, it's worth noting that despite the premise, there's not as much nudity as one might expect-just a few topless scenes.

In conclusion, 1,000 Convicts and a Woman is a mediocre exploitation film that primarily appeals to diehard fans of the genre. I'd rate this a 4/10 but still recommend giving it a watch at least once.
