Brawl in Cell Block 99 has some brutal moments, as do Starred Up, McVicar, Scum, Bronson & A Prophet.

Malefique is a good one, similar set up to Stoic, centering on the residents of a cell but it goes a bit strange.

Wouldn't say any of them were disturbing or extreme, but all solid films.

Also Oz the TV series has it's share of violent scenes.

There's a doc Ghosts of Abu Ghraib about the abuse n torture suffered by the inmates thats a bit hard hitting, but mainly just because you know this shit really went down.

Oh & The Rock.

Brawl in Cell Block 99 is my favorite 2018 watch so far, so that says a lot! Malefique definitely qualifies for a top 10 prison movies that ive watched so far. Fortunately i own the Oz tv show! Thanks for the rest, added to the watchlist.

i forgot about Riki Oh: The Story of Ricky. Plenty of OTT gore including this guy who uses his own intestines to try to strangle our hero.

I own this as well, haven't gotten around watching it yet, looks like is one of those over the top ridiculous gorefests, sign me up.

Oh, Riki-Oh is a must see. MUST SEE!

it is just that, very much a comedy

I don't know about brutal, but I will always recommend Reform School Girls (1986), it's pretty outrageous.

Added to the watchlist.

Wendy O. Williams kicked ass! I wish she was still alive.

I'm not too familiar with her outside the movie. I'm aware of The Plasmatics but I haven't heard them. I should probably give them a listen.

Werewolf In A Women's Prison is gory as fuck.

Looking good!

If you haven't seen it and can handle brutal well enough then I'd recommend Ghosts... of the Civil Dead (1988).

You bet, thanks for the rec

That's the one written by and/or featuring Nick Cave isn't it? One of those films added to the watchlist ages ago, then forgotten and overtaken by other future watches. need to get back on the hunt for this one, cheers for reccing it to ice, nice reminder

That's the one Foz, lemme know what you think

Not seen a lot of great brutal prison stuff, or much prison stuff at all, to be honest, but I'll second votes for Brawl on Cell Block 99 and the tv show "Oz".

I guess women's prison movies are a whole other thing. Somehow, this because a popular subgenre because people get their rocks off watching women in bad situations like this. I've only seen one of these types of flicks many years ago, "Women's Prison Massacre" (1983) and it was pretty good.

Dead Men Walking 2005 - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0473348/

A viral outbreak turns those who are infected into the walking dead. Soon, the undead are contained, being kept in a maximum security prison. However, those who contained the undead are also trapped in this zombie-infested prison. Their only hope is to escape; but once you’re inside this prison, there’s really no way of getting out safely.

Very entertaining and gory zombie movie for its low rating. I highly recommend it.

Oh, how could I forget Prison (1987).

This looks good. I have never seen it before. Is it a creepy kind of horror?
