Fugitive Rage (1996)

aka Caged Fear

How bad is it? It's a womens' prison film. That answer your question?
Should you see it? It's not required viewing.

I've seen scores of women-in-prison films and, while they're all pretty much the same, there are gems to be found ("Reform School Girls," "The Big Bird Cage," etc.) This one is directed by prolific bad movie director Fred Olen Ray, so it's the collision of two bad forces. Ray gets in the standard shower scene, sadism and lesbianism in the first few minutes, then the girls escape. They have to fight mobsters. Then they have to fight corrupt cops. Then they have to fight a secret government agency. That it ends up dull isn't for lack of trying.
