Purgatoire (1978)
Après un concours de circonstances peu enviable, Paul, un chanteur de country, se retrouve malgré lui devant une cour de justice. Son avocat le trahi, et Paul se retrouve condamné à 5 ans de prison. Là où il est envoyé, les gardes se servent des prisonniers pour entraîner leur meute de chiens à attaquer. Les animaux servent également à traquer les hommes qui tentent de s’enfuir, notamment à l’aide Rattler, le féroce doberman qui domine la meute. Mais Paul est bien décidé à ne pas rester ici.
Directeur: Mel Stuart
