House of Whipcord (1974)

Full Movie

Directed by Pete Walker.

Starring Barbara Markham, Patrick Barr and Ray Brooks.

IMDB

Creepy, psychotic old ladies torturing and killing nubile young British women.

This film has really polarized opinions among fans and critics, some calling it boring and others finding it extremely powerful.

Director Pete Walker went on to direct some other interesting films like Frightmare (1974), Schizo (1976) and House Of The Long Shadows (1983) starring Vincent Price, Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing.

Reform School Girls (1986)

Directed by Tom DeSimone.

Starring Linda Carol, Wendy O. Williams and Sybil Danning.

IMDB

This film could very well be held up as the definition of trash cinema. Yet this had major studio backing and grossed a respectable 2 million at the box office.

Just as the trailer indicates, this film is totally over the top and it's hard not to have a good time watching the likes of Williams and Pat Ast snarl their way through ridiculously campy performances.

Chain Gang Women (1971)

A fairly low-brow prison break movie with some misleading advertising. This is not a "women-in-prison" film, but as DVD Verdict states, a "bargain basement Cool Hand Luke". Lead actor Michael Stearns had a bit part in Battle For the Planet Of The Apes two years later.

Directed by Lee Frost.

Starring Michael Stearns.
