### The Top Ten Women In Prison Movies According to the Internet

**1. *Caged Heat* (1974)**


When it comes to women in prison movies, "Caged Heat" is the grandmama of them all. With a title that sounds like a BBQ contest gone wrong, this classic features a rebellion against a sadistic warden. Expect a lot of inappropriate shower scenes, catfights, and of course, the mandatory prison break. Quentin Tarantino probably watches this before bed.


**2. *Reform School Girls* (1986)**


This movie's cover alone deserves an Oscar for the "Best Over-The-Top Artistry." It's the story of girls gone wild but without the beaches. With chains, whips, and a dominatrix warden, it's less a movie and more an 80's rock music video gone terribly right. If you watch this, just make sure no one walks in and mistakes your viewing habits for something more nefarious.


**3. *The Big Bird Cage* (1972)**


This movie brings us back to the dynamic duo of Pam Grier and Sid Haig, but this time, they’re revolutionaries plotting a prison break. Featuring an actual birdcage, mud wrestling, and enough jungle foliage to make Tarzan jealous, it’s a riot in more ways than one. The film also features some of the best double entendres and campy dialogue this side of a drag show.


**4. *The Big Doll House* (1971)**


With a title that sounds like a horror film for Barbie enthusiasts, this movie offers an all-you-can-eat buffet of exploitation cinema. Expect plenty of mud wrestling, riot scenes, and Pam Grier kicking butt like only she can. It’s like a feminist statement wrapped in a chain-link fence.


**5. *Chained Heat* (1983)**


"Chained Heat" has Linda Blair from "The Exorcist" trading in her head-spinning for some hard time in the slammer. This one has it all: crooked guards, steamy scenes, and enough gratuitous violence to make a Tarantino film look like a Disney flick. And yes, there’s a plot in there somewhere. Probably.


**6. *Female Prisoner #701: Scorpion* (1972)**


A cult classic from Japan that introduces us to Nami Matsushima, a woman who could turn a glare into a lethal weapon. Think "Kill Bill," but with more vengeance and fewer yellow jumpsuits. The movie's color palette is like a psychedelic fever dream, and the storyline is like a Shakespearean tragedy – if Shakespeare had been into prison break dramas and revenge plots.


**7. *The Concrete Jungle* (1982)**


If you thought the concrete jungle was the urban city, think again. This film redefines it with gritty prison corridors, tough-as-nails inmates, and a protagonist who must navigate the treacherous waters of female inmate politics. Think "Mean Girls" but with more shivs and fewer burn books.


**8. *Bad Girls Dormitory* (1986)**


With a name that sounds like a place you'd send your worst enemies, this film is an unintentional comedy gem. It’s full of bad acting, worse dialogue, and plot twists that make no sense whatsoever. But somehow, it’s so bad, it’s good. This is the type of movie you watch with friends and a lot of popcorn.


**9. *Cell Block Sisters: Banished Behind Bars* (1995)**


The title alone screams “cult classic,” and the movie itself delivers. It’s a tale of sibling rivalry and redemption in a place where neither is typically found: a women's prison. With performances that range from hammy to hammy-er, it’s a delightful dive into the deep end of the exploitation pool.


**10. *Women in Cages* (1971)**


Saving perhaps the most infamous for last, "Women in Cages" is a Roger Corman production, which should tell you everything you need to know. This movie has Pam Grier again, this time as a sadistic prison guard. It's got all the hallmarks of the genre: corrupt officials, daring escapes, and enough melodrama to fuel a dozen telenovelas.


### Conclusion


Women in prison movies are a genre unto themselves, offering a curious mix of social commentary, exploitation, and sheer unadulterated entertainment. Whether you're in it for the drama, the action, or just the guilty pleasure of it all, these films are a testament to cinema's ability to take the most absurd premises and turn them into cult classics. Just remember to watch responsibly – and maybe keep that door locked.
