WIP Flicks

This is a genre I'd like to explore further. I haven't checked out much of the European or Asian flicks but have really enjoyed the US out I've seen.

Chained Heat with Linda Blair is one of my favorites. John Vernon had me laughing my ass of in this one.



The Concrete Jungle
is a pretty good example of the genre which the director later went on to parody in Reform School Girls.



What flicks are you guys into and do you have any recs for me?

Caged Heat is prolly the blue print for the modern AIP film.

Also don't miss all the Filipino ones - especially Big Doll House/Big Bird cage.

Franco did a Bunch of them - lots of the same cast/locations they all blur into a haze of sadism and bushy pubes though :-)

I like the real old ones too - Caged and I think theres one called simply Women in prison (i hvae these on vs some where).

The nazi exploitation films are a subgenre of the WIP if you wanna check these out too..

Well, Caged Heat is great- it was Jonathan Demme's first film and features Barbara Steele.

Also Refrm School Girls is notable for having Wendy O Williams and Sybil Danning.

Lots of fun.

I'm gonna go with Women In Prison. But is there really a whole 'genre' dedicated to flicks with women in jail killing off each other?

If you think all they do in there is kill each other- you've never seen a WIP movie.

If I had, I would not be asking what WIP is.
