B Movie Cinema has been a staple of ours since we first learned of the legendary Dolemite in in the early 90's. His rants on "Rat Soup Eatin' Honkey Mutha Fucka's" are legendary. Those classic films opened up many doors and now we want to start showcasing some of our favorites weekly. First up is The Big Bad Bird Cage starring Pam Grier and Sid Haig, read below for the synopsis and watch the trailer.
"Terry, a social-climbing young woman accidentally gets caught up in the
activities of two revolutionaries, Blossom and Django, and finds herself
in a concentration camp for women. In the center of the camp is a
towering wooden machine ("The Big Bird Cage") in which the women risk
their lives processing sugar as the evil warden looks on. The prisoners
are subjected to sadistic cruelty from the guards and fellow prisoners,
and all attempts at escape are dealt with...permanently. Terry's only
hope for escape lies in Blossom and her revolutionary allies."
