The Bamboo House of Dolls
The Bamboo House Of Dolls Hong Kong exploitation doesn't get more legendary than The Bamboo House of Dolls, a notorious grindhouse flick with more sex, nudity, and brutal sadism than any fan could possibly want and/or need! The Japanese have invaded China, and are rounding up all the women into a camp, where they are required to wear fetching blue uniforms with short skirts and frequently visible panties. The evil officers are also into making the inmates their sex slaves, a pastime that isn't confined to just the male officers! The female security head also enjoys a little playtime with the prisoners, and has a particular fondness for willowy white girls. A mixed band of prisoners decides they want out, and are after a hidden cache of gold for Chinese rebels. They conspire to escape, and even get the help of a translator (Shaw Brothers favorite Law Lit) who's supposed to be working for the Japanese. A lurid mix of catfights, shower scenes, and over-the-top action sequences, The Bamboo House of Dolls is a surefire winner for fans of "Women in Prison" films, as well as curious cinemaphiles who just want to see what the fuss is all about!
