TUBI CONTINUED… CAPTIVE FACTORY GIRLS 2: THE REVOLT (2007) ***

The fact that I have not seen (or heard) of Captive Factory Girls did in no way stop me from checking out Captive Factory Girls 2:  The Revolt.  I mean, it’s called Captive Factory Girls 2:  The Revolt.  What more did you need to know?  

Luckily for me, things begin with a quick recap of the first movie.  It seems that women in prison are given work release at a steel factory where they are constantly groped by the scummy security guards.  As it turns out, the prisoners are unwittingly making parts for guns and weapons and shit.  

So, let’s see… we have girls… who are captive… in a factory… I guess we’re all up to speed on Part 1.  I’d lay even odds that in this one there will be a revolt of some kind (possibly in the last act).    

Anyway, a young girl is trying to pay off her boyfriend’s debt by working in a nightclub.  When she refuses to put out for a fat cat customer, she is sent to the steel factory to settle the debt.  There, she must contend with volatile co-workers and rapist guards.  When one of the girls escape, she leaves behind a detailed plan for the other inmates to follow.  But is it truly a way out, or is it a trap set by the sadistic warden? 

I appreciate when a Women in Prison movie tries to do something a little different than the typical genre flick.  Most likely, the filmmakers didn’t “TRY” to do anything different.  They probably couldn’t afford a prison location, so they settled on a steel factory instead.  

Captive Factory Girls 2:  The Revolt is just over an hour long, and it moves like lightning, which are both good things when you’re trying to watch 365 movies on Tubi in 365 days.  However, it kind of comes up short in the sleaze department, which is kind of essential in a Women in Prison flick.  Most of the titillation comes in the form of a lot of close-ups of workers’ heaving, sweaty cleavage as they toil away in the factory.  We also get a couple of shower scenes and hot tub sequences, although all the naughty bits are strategically covered up.  At least there is a decent wet t-shirt catfight. 

The big escape sequence is well-executed on a small budget.  It also manages to be rather exciting, given the limited means and locations at the filmmakers’ disposal.  It might not be a sterling example of a Women in Prison movie, but it distinguishes itself in enough ways to make it a worthy entry in the genre.
