Bad Girls Go to Hell

After hubby Ted goes to work, Ellen putters around the apartment in her nightgown cleaning up. When she takes the trash out, the janitor forces her into his apartment and rapes her. When he tries to rape her again, she dispatches him and then hits the road, a fugitive from injustice. She goes to the Big City and encounters a string of situations where she gets used and abused. When she finally finds a nice woman to rent from, the woman’s son turns out to be a detective, which threatens her newly found identity and peace of mind.

Exploitation filmmaker Doris Wishman directed this peculiar black-and-white roughie about the travails of a blushing bride named Meg (Gigi Darlene). After her husband (Alan Feinstein) leaves her, she is forced to kill her building’s janitor-rapist in self-defense. The panicked Meg flees to New York under an assumed name and picks up a drunken lout who beats her with a belt, then she moves in with a lesbian. As the dragnet tightens, Meg moves to an apartment and is attacked by the landlady’s husband and finally ends up working for an elderly woman whose son is the detective assigned to the janitor’s murder. Wishman’s bizarre film is almost surreal in style, with the requisite circular ending and aimless photography popular in art-house features of the time. Virtually impossible to see for many years, Bad Girls Go to Hell has gained a cult following on videotape for its campy, melodramatic elements and even received some theatrical playdates in the late 1990s.
