I've seen worse prison pics. Dialogue and staging of the action scenes, especially the "revolt", are a bit on the stiff, lackluster side (let's just say director R.G. Springsteen is no Don Siegel and leave it at that) but the performances, other than the always over the top Timothy Carey, are quite good. I was particularly impressed with a young Robert Blake's take on a basically decent inmate caught between the head guard's racism and Gene Evans' seductive betrayal. Also worthy of mention is veteran character actor John Qualen, who usually portrayed stolid farmers in John Ford movies, doing a nice job as a Bob Stroud-like lifer. And Evans, as per usual, is solid as a complete and utter scumbag. Give it a generous B minus 'cause I found myself involved with and, in Blake's case, caring about these guys.

The joy of this movie is that it filled with generic (corny) lines and situations throughout, yet it is still a great yarn. Some friends and I discovered this flick accidentally on TV years ago in the 70's and it has enjoyed a surreptitious cult-like status ever since. With lines like, "I can't eat, I can't sleep, food turns sour in my belly," and characters with a name like Bugsy, and a very young Robert Blake spouting, "Oh, holy Toledo!" you just cannot go wrong watching this movie with some friends. I challenge anybody who sees this movie to try and not quote at least one of the many unforgettable lines for days and/or years after seeing Lou and the gangs travails inside the unforgiving walls of "the big house."

The plot of this film has been filmed a million times: a group of prisoners start a revolt in order to make an escape attempt. What makes this worth seeing over dozens of other "B" films is the good cast. Gene Evans is excellent as Lou Barlow who tricks good kid Rudy (Robert Blake) into helping him escape. Tim Carey gives his usual good performance as the unhinged prisoner "Bugsy" who lovingly fondles guns. Glad my local video store had this one.
