    Storyline

    • Alternate versions
      The original running time of Eingelocht is 95m 53s, a hardcore adult film. The UK DVD release, titled Gefangen: Locked Up, was cut by the distributor (TLA Releasing) to 92m 21s, to apply for a rating of 18 by the British Board of Film Certification, and prevent an R18, that would have limited sales to licensed sex shops only. (*SPOILERS*) Cuts include sight of woman being raped with a fist, implication of man being urinated on, and male masturbation and ejaculation. This DVD version also changed some scenes, including a different ending.

    Gay prison fantasy
    All the standard ingredients of a brutal prison film are here, interwoven with a very tender gay romance. The action takes place in a German institution, but among the inmates are some British and American prisoners, so there is a substantial amount of dialog in English as well as German, which is well translated in the subtitles. The chemistry of attraction between the newly arrived young German prisoner and the muscular Caribbean-American man of color is palpable and exciting. The plot alternates between brutal realism and romantic fantasy, with lots of eye candy along the way. Never a dull moment! The extras on the DVD include candid interviews with the two gay actors who play the leads so effectively. Hugely enjoyable for the target audience.
