    This lip-smackingly good women-in-prison saga finds Exorcist star Linda Blair — topless for the first time! — learning the cell block ropes the hard way via degenerate guards, domineering inmates and the usual lesbian quota. Bolstered by a great B-movie cast — Stella Stevens, Sybil Danning, Tamara Dobson, Edy Williams — this sequel to The Concrete Jungle (1982) might arguably be the ultimate jail-and-jiggle trash-fest. John Vernon is an absolute hoot as the sleazy warden who videotapes desperate lags in his office hot-tub while feeding them cocaine. Chained Heat II followed in 1993 starring Brigitte Nielsen.

    Fans of the women in prison sexploitation genre will not be disappointed with this gem from 1983. Whilst constantly moving between brutal & camp which with the typical subject matter of violence, sexual abuse, drugs & corruption does not always sit comfortably together, there is still much to find entertaining. Good performances as always by Sybil Danning & John Vernon are perfect for the material & despite being another example of Linda Blair inevitable career decline is a far more exciting ride than the dull Shawshank Redemptions & Green Miles of this world.
