Nightmare in Badham County (1976 TV Movie)
scary and sad
13 November 2003
Warning: Spoilers
I saw this so long ago I really cannot remember it scene by scene but would like to see it again. The plot has already been gone over but really quickly-this concerns two young girls traveling together unfairly thrown into the local woman's prison and the movie focuses on their plight.

This I remember being as a low budget or relatively so type of movie but very well done and well acted. Not your typical "girls in prison" movie(meaning this doesn't play like a porno flcik). This movie actually focuses on these two girls as human beings and how they try to survive the brutality of their experience. It is Extremely well acted and the girls come across as so likable and so truly horrifed by their circumstances that you ache for them.

I truly hope this wasn't based on a true story. In any event-the drama is in this movie despite the low budget and that is due primarily to the wonderful acting of all involved-I would recommend this movie quite a bit over the trash that's mostly out there about women in prison. Don't even know if the movie still plays anymore I saw it so long ago.
