Nightmare in Badham County (1976)

The made-for-TV movie Nightmare in Badham County (1976) was a pretty notable heel turn for former MLB and NBA star Chuck Connors after all that time spent as The Rifleman, never mind for former The Brady Bunch dad Robert Reed. Both of those former good guys put the bad in Badham County in this one, with Chuck playing Sheriff Slim Danen. The sheriff stumbles across a white UCLA student (Deborah Raffin) and a black one (Lynne Moody) spending their time off from school traveling across the South. Corrupt to the core, he tries to trade sex for freedom but when they turn him down, he shows them that you never turn down porking the Sherriff of Badham. As retribution, the Sherriff trumps up some charges and get them hauled off to a prison camp. It's a racially segregated sexual abuse factory run by the corrupt Superintendent Dancer (Robert Reed). Alongside him are a wildly sexy group of woman wardens, including Natalie Wood's sister Lana Wood, Fionnula Flanagan, and Ginger herself Tina Louise. The camp is a, well, nightmare, so soon enough our Bruins are brewing up a plan to escape the camp and make a run for home. While this is a largely forgotten flick in the USA, for whatever reason it was a huge hit in China and led to Deborah Raffin heading over there to promote it; something which was essentially unheard of at the time. We're not sure which version China got, but there's a European film version of this torrid thriller in which Lynne Moody's blouse is torn open and her chocolate milk sacks pour out. They're not really her tits, but they’re somebody's, so why complain? It'll still get you in the mood. Denise Dillaway goes all the way to full frontal while tied up and tortured, and Tonea Stewart shows off her not all that toned body while stripping some of the prisoners. Lana Wood also looked good when she did a bra and panties scene, but she's showed much more of her bod in other movies. Still, the nudity's not bad, not bad at all in Nightmare in Badham County.
