    A Good Old Fashioned Women In Prison Movie!

    Jailhouse Girls is without a doubt a milestone in exploitation cinema! And rest assured, you will be going straight to hell for feasting your eyes on this twisted debacle of a movie.

    Blonde bimbette Ginger Lynn plays a hot young thang who is in the wrong place at the wrong time and ends up in the slammer. All the usual staples of chicks in jail flicks await fair Ginger in Sing-Sing. Corrupt wardens, lesbian cellmates, and a steady supply of randy prison guards.

    Jailhouse Girls, a smorgasbord of expolitation and a one way ticket to a moral Hades all in one flick! But what a way to go though, Moe!

    Ginger Lynn gets some penile reform.

    Naive aspiring model Joanne MacIntyre (Ginger Lynn Allen) earns a living as a receptionist, blissfully unaware that her place of work is actually a knocking shop—at least until the vice squad raid the building and arrest her for prostitution. Despite protesting her innocence, poor Joanne is found guilty and banged up (in more ways than one) in a corrupt women's prison where the warden and his guards use the prisoners to satisfy their own desires.

    With the WIP (women in prison) genre having already crossed over into adult territory in several Jess Franco flicks and Oswaldo de Oliveira's Bare Behind Bars, it's not surprising that the US market also got in on the action with Jailhouse Girls. Director Henri Pachard doesn't do a particularly great job, though, with his film lacking the nastiness and sleaze that such material really demands.

    If ever there was a film crying out for the 'roughie' treatment, it is this one; all we get, however, is routine mid-80s hardcore action, and weak WIP elements amounting to little more than an unconvincing prison location, a lacklustre de-lousing for the inmates followed by a quick internal exam, some mild abuse, and a predictably pathetic jail-break finale. None of the women look in the slightest bit upset about their supposedly horrific ordeal (most lapping up the attention from the guards) and there's no real violence to speak of (what use is a WIP film without a little sadistic torture?). Hell, there's not even a cat-fight or a shower scene.

    If straight-up, no-nonsense porn is all you're after, then I guess the film will do the trick, but trash connoisseurs expecting a really reprehensible piece of exploitative sleaze will most likely come away disappointed.
