No, at least not to me. But we can define this one like we did Disaster! and everybody can have a different view on where the lines are.
When I say a "women in prison" movie I don't mean just a movie that has a woman in prison but rather is about the abuse/exploitation of women in prison. Most generally in the form of exploitation films that are primarily motivated by S&M and lesbian tensions. Sometimes a particularly strict boarding school is substituted for the prison.
I wasn't necessarily serious in calling
Caged a woman in prison movie. Like I said I haven't seen it. But the plot summary at IMDb read like a perfect description of one. Woman somewhat mistakenly is imprisioned and brutalized by the harsh headmistress.
