The cast includes real inmates of Rahway State Prison.

In 1990, In Dublin magazine described this film scathingly as "109 minutes of macho sewage."

The film could had been a "Rambo" film. If it had been a "Rambo" film. It would had taken place after "First Blood". Which Rambo (Stallone) is tried and convicted for his rampage in Hope, Washington and is imprisoned in Gateway prison and is physically abused by the sadistic guards and Warden Drumgoole decides to set up Rambo by having him attempt to escape from prison and so that Rambo would receive a 10 year sentence, by using Dallas and like Teasle, Rambo is pushed too far and fights the guards and goes after Drumgoole.
