Trivia
This is the companion film to Detenute violente (1984). Because both films are directed by Gianni Siragusa (as Willy Regan) and feature most of the same cast, they are often confused with each other and believed to be one film. However, they are two entirely different films.

Is trashy sleaze the wrong word combination?

It is an Italian film distributed by Troma, narrow screen and poorly dubbed. Released in 1984, it fits into the WIP pictures of that time, but there are others of that type done much better. There is the stereotypical warden who says things like "You will rot there without hope." In this prison, there are no wrongfully imprisoned inmates, so no one to really root for to get out. The soft core scenes are very tame, and even the shower scenes are less than most WIP pictures show. Even the deaths are done poorly, although death by sewer is different. Of course, there is a Mob figure in the picture. To come up with 600 characters to describe this movie is almost as painful as having watched it.
