Hölle der Gefangenen (1953)
Der ehemalige Marshal Billy Reynolds mittlerweile eigentlich ein friedliebender Farmer in Arizona, sitzt aufgrund einer tödlichen Schießerei im Gefängnis. Zu Unrecht, handelte er doch in Notwehr - doch die Geschworenen der Gerichtsjury sahen es anders. Die Haftbedingungen sind hart, Temperaturen von über 35 °C und eine sadistische Gefängnisführung machen den Gefängnisalltag zur Hölle. Außerdem hat es der rachsüchtige Killer Jessie Gorman auf ihn abgesehen. Gemeinsam mit seiner Freundin Abby Nixon zettelt dieser eine Häftlingsrevolte an.
