ANACHRON
WOMEN IN PRISON


7pm


Female Prisoner 701: Scorpion
(Shunya Ito) 1972 Japan 87 mins
Starring Meiko Kaji. The best "women in prison" film
ever. Arthouse, experimental, exploitation, theatrical.
Tarantino paid homage by using the theme tune on
Kill Bill. Meiko Kaji is brilliant as the girlfriend of a
policeman who uses her to infiltrate the mob, then
turns on her. Revenge fills her soul.


8.40pm


Female Convict
Scorpion: Jailhouse 41
(Shunya Ito) 1972 Japan 92 mins
Starring Maiko Kaji. The second installment in the
Female Prisoner series. Possibly even more over-thetop
than the first film.
