After killing her father who had attempted to rape her, Maria da Guerra is sentenced to prison for life. The wardress is a sadistic lesbian without mercy or humanity.

One day the Regional Governor arrives, claiming to have received a letter from one of the prisoners describing incredible events in the prison. The writer of the letter was clearly unaware that the Governor is also part of the conspiracy. Carlos Costa, a male nurse pretending to be the prison doctor Moore, falls in love with Maria.

Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
I thought that Barbed Wire Dolls was a good film The story is about a girl called Maria da Guerra who is sentenced to prison for life, after killing her father who had tried to rape her. On her arrival at the prison she is taken to a special section for mentally disturbed prisoners, where torture, rape and violence is a part of everyday life. One day the regional governor of the prison arrives, claiming that received a letter from one of the prisoners, describing the horrible events going on in the prison. Also Carlos Costa, who is a male nurse who is pretending to be the prison doctor. He falls in love with Maria who kills him with a pair of scissors. I thought that this was a very violent film, with some pretty strong senses of sex and nudity, that may be too much for some viewers.
Now some people are complaining about the lack of plot, however there is a plot; a weak one, but yes it is there. Most characters are pulled from Ilsa - The Wicked Warden (another Franco movie) and yet all I wanted was for Dyanne Thorne to play a cameo. As a fan of exploitation movies such as Ilsa, I was hoping this was going to be something familiar. And by 'something familiar' I don't mean the same characters and same set. I'm looking for new torture, new sleaze and the like. Other then super fake electrical shocks there is none of that. Just badly dubbed naked girls who pretend to masturbate. If that's what I was looking for then I suppose I would have to have rated this movie more then a 4/10 but it was a little to soft-core for me. And for that I apologize.
I've been involved in a dangerous business, diving into the catacombs of film, digging around in trash pits and seeing grand things.Part of this endeavor comes from my appreciation for the vitality of film today which in large part is anchored by Spanish and Spanish-speaking filmmakers. There's an easy sliding of realities, a nonchalance about linear narrative, an arbitrariness of trust in the narrators, and a vaginal honesty about many of the urges that pull the world.And in this story about liquid storytelling, I place Franco, similar to the way he places himself and his lovers in his stories. Some of his films seem like random events, while others seem almost too perfectly prototypes for what we'll see later with heavier ideas.The danger is in taking him too seriously, as if his tinkering with the machinery of imagination inferred that he really had some ideas worth absorbing. He doesn't and is honest about it. He toys with magical perversions and sometimes they are simply stupid, automatic.Nude women in prison. A Nazi lesbian warden. Noir conspiracies layered on top of one another. A tortured redhead (his wife). Thwarted escape. All these he'd exploit bitwise elsewhere and with more charm and competence. This. Well this is a waste. For some reason, he's chosen to make Romay look haggard.You know, he has about 190 movies now. They are so choppy, but have plots that overlap and many of the same players for decades. Elsewhere, I've predicted a big business in the future for desktop filmmakers. Imagine having 600 hours of Franco. Or just the 100 movies he made with Romay! You could create your own Franco adventure, starting perhaps with "Vampyros Lesbos." (Oh shucks, I see my comment for that movie has been deleted!)Or maybe it would be a prison. (Check out the synthesized "Justine")Ted's Evaluation -- 1 of 3: You can find something better to do with this part of your life.
Women in prison films are always kinda... ridiculous. And this one doesn't save the genre, or the day. A gorgeous brunette, miss Romay, Jess Franco's nice wife, plays the main character : a murderous whore who killed her lover because he was cheatin. Being an average actress, our dear Lina just keeps on getting nude to shine bright... And the story is the same as in all prison movies : get nude, get raped, get tortured, scream, spread those legs, be cute, scream once more, make love to your cell mate, kill, fight... This time around Jess Franco himself saves the day by breaking in the prison and kidnapping the young and innocent prisoner, who later kills him to get away with an obscure insurance agent and the money of a robbery (?!?). This is not a particulary good Franco film, but it sure is respectable fun for the whole family and you'll laugh to death as Lina Romay gets her electric treatment right... between the legs. So franco-esque.
