5 | Naive teenager Carol Henderson (Creator/LindaBlair) is sentenced to serve 18 months in a California women's prison for accidentally killing a man in a vehicular manslaughter. The prison's leadership is corrupt: Warden Backman (Creator/JohnVernon) has a hot tub in his office; his assistant, Captain Taylor (Creator/StellaStevens) controls the prostitution in the prison, and to make the matters worse, the prison's population is split between the white prisoners, led by Ericka (Creator/SybilDanning), and the black prisoners, led by Duchess (Creator/TamaraDobson). Eventually the administration pushes the prisoners too far and they drop their race-based feuding to revolt against their common enemy. |

7 | The film was followed in 1993 by ''Film/ChainedHeat2'', starring Creator/BrigitteNielsen, and in 1998 by ''Chained Heat 3: Hell Mountain'', but both films bear little to no relation to the first film. |

9 | !!This film features examples of: |
10 | * TheAggressiveDrugDealer: The prisoners who are drug dealers push their stuff aggressively. |
11 | * CatFight: Several of the female inmates get into several cat fights with each other. |
12 | * ExploitationFilm: A GirlsBehindBars film that takes every chance it gets of showing naked or topless women - and there were plenty of those. |
13 | * GirlsBehindBars: The depiction of the women's prison is a classic male fantasy, with beautiful, scantily-clad inmates, and lots of openly lesbian and sadistic inmates and staff. |
14 | * HellholePrison: The prison Carol is sent in. It has everything: Prostitution, drug-dealing, aggressive prisoners, aggressive jailers… |
15 | * MsFanservice: The female inmates provide lots of fanservice. They are all very good-looking and spend nearly the entire film in very skimpy prison wear. |
16 | * NaiveNewcomer: Carol is clearly out of her depth in the violent prison. |
17 | * PsychoLesbian: Some of the female prisoners are lesbians who are rapists and drug dealers. |
18 | * ShowerScene: There's the obligatory scene in GirlsBehindBars films of the female inmates having to shower, shot with loving attention to detail. |
19 | * WardensAreEvil: Warden Backman, who takes advantage of the prison's prostitution ring (led by his right-hand woman), even having a hot tub in his office. |
