Directed by Brunello Rondi
Italy 1974
Gorgeous young French tourist Martine (Martine Brochard) gets arrested while on vacation in Italy. After being found guilty of a trumped-up drug possession charge, Martine finds herself incarcerated at a hellish women’s penitentiary where the inmates are subjected to mental and physical torture by the staff and fellow felons alike. Things are compounded in severity when a riot breaks out in the prison, and Martine struggles to maintain her sanity. Soon it becomes every inmate for herself! *** Young French tourist Martine gets falsely accused of drug possession in Italy. She's imprisoned in a brutal women's prison where inmates face abuse from staff and other prisoners. A riot erupts, intensifying the ordeal. |

On their
Blu-ray,
Raro use a DTS-HD Master dual-mono track (24-bit) in an English DUB. Riot in a Women's Prison
has aggression but surprisingly less than you might expect between
inmates. Mostly the riot skirmishes are the extent of the violence. The score
was by Alberto Verrecchia (Beyond
Terror,
Season for Assassins,
The Hallucinating Trip,
A Black Ribbon for Deborah), sounding oddly supportive in
in the lossless transfer. Raro offer optional English subtitles on their

Blu-ray
Brunello Rondi's Riot in a Women's Prison
is exploitive but not overly trashy. It has attractive leads portraying
varied female stereotypes. 'The innocent' played by Martine Brochard (Eyeball,
Murder Obsession,
Savage Three, two nunsploitation and a couple of Tinto Brass
films), the protective toughie; Marilù Tolo (early career was in a lot
of peplum films, moving to
Roy Colt and Winchester Jack,
Bluebeard,
Candy and even a bit part in
Juliet of the Spirits,) sexy Katia Christine from
The Designated Victim,
Spirits of the Dead (she always reminds me of Shannon Bream.) As
far as 70's 'Women
in Prison' flics go - this is probably one of the better I've
seen - pleasantly devoid of the usual tasteless violence and forced
lesbianism. There are plenty of Euro-genre stars here and the Raro Blu-ray
