Pray you don't get locked up in
Honeywell State Prison! Kathie (Roxanna Michaels) is innocent when they lock her up ... but that won't last long. Women in chains, a deviant warden and murderous guards ... no wonder the cops claim Honeywell State Prison doesn't exist. Her only hope of being freed lies with Harley-riding hero Victor (Erik Estrada) and combat karate champ Dirk (Richie Barathy), who'll take on the whole prison mano a mano if need be. This women-in-prison film also stars Paul L. Smith (Midnight Express), Jack Carter (Alligator), Michael Parks (From Dusk Till Dawn) and adult film stars Janine Lindemulder and Kascha. *** Prison chicks provide the basis for this exploitation film. The tale centers on two young women, one a naive, star-struck midwestern girl, and the other a savvy hitcher, who head for Tinseltown in search of stardom. Unfortunately they end up arrested and thrown in prison. Meanwhile, the naive girl's sister refuses to believe the claim that her sister is in Mexico shooting a film, and goes to LA to investigate the situation herself. When she finds out what has been happening, she enlists the aid of a biker and detectives to help her stop the insanity of it all. |

NOTE: The below Blu-ray captures were taken directly from the Blu-ray disc. 'Women in Prison' films have been an exploitive cinema milieu / genre for decades - coming to mind a few (see above listing); Caged (1950) , Women's Prison (1955) with Ida Lupino, Roger Corman's The Women In Cages Collection; Women in Cages (1971), The Big Bird Cage (1972), The Big Doll House (1971) as well as Chained Heat (1983), the Female Prisoner Scorpion films of the early 70's and the newer entry Female Convict Scorpio plus more international female prison flics with the Brazilian Bare Behind Bars and, of course, some of the work of Bruno Mattei, like the multi-named "Violence in a Women's Prison", also on Blu-ray.
Shout! Factory give a single-layered,
1080P Blu-ray
transfer of the super schlocky Caged Fury. A 90's exploitation
video effort but it actually has a semblance of a good story - it has
Janine Lindemulder, Erik Estrada, comedian Jack Carter, James Hong even
Ron Jeremy briefly.
The image quality is a solid notch above SD. It's in the 1.85:1 aspect
ratio, detail is clear and it seems like a very good representation of
the film.
