Bad Girls Go to Hell

You know, if it wasn`t for the drive-in movies a lot of people would never have been able to enter the film business, this is because a lot of these peoples work was so bad no theater would ever screen it. This can`t be said about Doris Wishman who I like to refer to as the George Eliot of trash cinema. Like Mary Anne Evans, Wishman used many male pseudonyms not only to hide her sex but to cover up for the fact she did most of the work on her projects. She is by no means an Eliot but her work is a tad cut above that of many other working during her time in the exploitation period. BAD GIRLS GO TO HELL is standard jiggle film drive-in fodder about a sex pot who has to kill a horny janitor and then goes on the lamb and ends up having a lot of bad luck with sexual predators. It`s interesting only because of the way Wishman shoots it often paying more attention to the corners of rooms and building than the cast itself. Odd fare which may interest even the novice but I do suggest you check out the Wishman classics like DILDO HEAVEN or THE HAUNTED PUSSY first.
