This whole movie is like a psychedelic experience and the story has surprising depth for a cheap roughie. Pat Barrington plays as a woman moonlighting as a prostitute and delves into the mental torment she goes through. The scenes with the men are done in a surreal dreamlike way expressing her mental state and it's a neat idea. Pat elevates the whole thing and is, in my opinion, one of the most beautiful women of the period.
The beginning of the movie is especially great with a strong setup and a nice glimpse at 1966 Los Angeles with some fun camera work and music. Once the theme is established, it unfortunately goes downhill. We get a lot of lingering pointless shots at objects, faces, and excessive repetition. But considering how terrible these 60's low budget sexploitation films typically are, this still manages to be one of the better ones.

I'm surprised this isn't more well known among exploitation fan circles. As far as women in prison movies go, this one is pretty amusing and works better than most of its ilk. Sure, it's not without flaws with some lame action scenes and a surprising lack of sleaze for the genre but the directing and acting do well with the zany script.
The lead women, which are a white, black, and Asian respectively, skip on the nudity but deliver some amusing dialogue and acting which the movie would have been pretty dull without. Performances are over the top lending to a cartoony vibe with John Ashley and Sid Haig being standouts. No ground is being broken here, but after watching countless exploitation movies, this one provides a fun lighthearted atmosphere missing from most.
