Terminal Island 1973
It’s every man and woman for himself on an island where convicted murderers are dumped, rather than kept in prison.
An exploitation film when being an exploitation film was cool. As such, it has certain shortcoming inherent to the genre, such as street talking tough black guy, the psychotic white chauvinist pig, and the heroic woman, overcoming oppression with sagacity and perserverence, 1970’s porn movie music.
Marta Kristen fights and blows things up and knows how to make gunpowder. Very cool.
