Academy Award winners don't always start out directing Academy Award-winning films. Take Jonathan Demme, for instance. Sure, he's directed such great movies as Silence of the Lambs, Philadelphia and Rachel Getting Married, but he got his start working with the great Roger Corman, directing classics like Caged Heat, Crazy Mama and Fighting Mad. In this one, he puts Erica Gavin, Cheryl "Rainbeaux" Smith, Juanita Brown, Ella Reid, Crystin Sinclaire and Roberta Collins in a women's prison, with all the requisite showers, torture and lesbionic overtones that you get with every other Women-In-Prison movie. A true gem.
