Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaStar Linda Blair says that the script kept getting re-written and that the film ended up not resembling the script she had originally signed up for. That included adding several nude scenes, including her topless shower scene. It was her first onscreen nudity and she didn't want to do it, but producers told her, "Well, if you don't do it, you're never gonna work again." So she gave in and stripped naked because she felt she had no choice.
- GoofsThe boom microphone is visible multiple times during the movie.
- Alternate versionsThe 1986 and 1990 UK video versions were cut by 1 min 38 secs by the BBFC to remove the rape before the fight on the roof and to heavily edit fight scenes including groin kicks, face slaps and a woman's head being hit against a window. Some fight cuts were restored in the 1998 MIA video release though most of the original BBFC edits were retained. The 2006 Anchor Bay DVD had been heavily pre-edited and was missing the BBFC cuts along with some other edits.

AN ABSOLUTE CLASSIC
Chained Heat is an absolute classic. I can watch it over and over agin and never get sick of it. Its a pure trash classic. It centres around Carol (Linda Blair) who is an innocent thrown into a sleazy prison run by two adversaries Bachman (John Vernon) and Taylor (Stella Stevens). Its a heavily corrupt prison with two main gangs one headed by Erica (Sybil Dannning) and one by Duchess (Lousia Moritz), and with drugs, fights, lesbianism and murder thrown into the mix u know u r in for a good movie. Honestly the acting is hopeless, but who cares? you are not watching this film like an oscar voter, enjoy it
By the way does anyone notice how Linda Blair is constantly being raped in films? (Born Innocent, Chained Heat, Savage Island, Savage Streets, Red Heat, Silent Assassins)just to name a few!
