Sleazy insane Women-In-Prison flick with that Ed Wood touch

Okay, the women don't spend much time in prison, they're most on the run abusing hippies, a gas attendant (Ed Wood!) and they rape a man, just like in the Wood-scripted "The Violent Years" (1956)! The women ain't that good lookin' and the film is too dark but the film's nasty tone and the massive doses of nudity helps a lot + the Woodian touches are pretty clear. Any sleazemonger should own this cheap but mad flick. Also check the director's magnum opus "Orgy Of The Dead" from 1965 - also a Wood story with the mighty Criswell in the cast!
