1,000 Convicts and a Woman!

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.

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.

I stumbled upon the 1971 movie "Fun and Games" (aka "1000 Convicts and a Woman") by random chance here in 2025. I didn't even know that the movie existed, but then again I never really understood or enjoyed the sexploitation genre of movies, and thus haven't been in any particular rush to get to watch such movies. But with this being a movie that I hadn't already seen, of course I opted to give director Ray Austin's 1971 movie a fair chance. But truth be told, I harbored zero expectations to the movie.

As the movie unfolded on the screen, I sat with a sense of 'is there a purpose to this narrative?' throughout the course of the movie. Writer Oscar Brodney didn't exactly put together a particularly entertaining script and storyline, nor a particularly enjoyable one at that.

Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with a single actress or actor on the cast list in this movie, except for Robert Brown. The acting performances in the movie were fair enough, taking into consideration the genre of movie that this was.

Hardly a memorable movie, nor one that will ever grace my screen a second time. But I am sure that there is an audience out there who enjoys these types of movies way more than I did as a casual viewer.

My rating of director Ray Austin's 1971 movie "Fun and Games" lands on a generous three out of ten stars.

The title in the USA was Fun and Games , that title fit the movie for the star , Alexandra Hay , whose youthful looks make this movie work. Sure typically made movies in the UK had loads of sex , but this was tasteful , one woman depicting a high schooler , she needed sex cause she could not sleep and was lonely , sure like read a book and a cup of tea. Broken home she came from just like her mother the warden said , her beauty , carried the film , filmed in Berkshire , and actually felt like Denmark . Alexandra Hay has been long forgotten , she made a handful of films and in 1993 at 46 passed away , she was a model for real , just like a few of her roles . Descent supporting cast including the only other American in the film David Bauer who played Gribney.

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.
