The Big Bird Cage
Dir: Jack Hill
1972
***
It's bad taste exploitation all the way with the follow up (although unrelated) to Big Doll House. I can't say I liked it as much though, Pam Grier and Sig Haig as revolutionaries (without a cause) are good fun, and I quite liked Haig camping it up as a gay guard but there isn't enough of Grier and there is too much of all the other crappy characters. The acting is bad as is the case in all these films but here it is particularly bad. Half way through, you just want them to get on with it. Good but not Jack Hill's best. Exploitation fans only.
