About Slammer Girls
A young girl is framed for a crime she didn't commit and sent to the state penitentiary, which is run by a crooked warden and a corrupt staff. A reporter manages to get herself sent to the prison so she can expose the brutal conditions and prove the girl's innocence.
Directed by Chuck Vincent, Slammer Girls leans on a strong ensemble — Devon Jenkin, Jeffrey Hurst, Veronica Hart — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 1987.
