Movie Description
JAIL BAIT is a grimy drama about criminals sleazing around a crummy little town, by the acknowledged king of bad cinema, Ed Wood. In what was conceived as his homage to the TV series DRAGNET and the film noir of the 1930s and 1940s, Wood developed this vehicle for stars Steve Reeves and Delores Fuller, his wife. The story is about a young criminal who kills a cop and has plastic surgery to alter his face. The film's title, however, is misleading; the only mention of "jail bait" in the film is made in reference to a gun! The Rhino version is a "Director's Cut" (!) with the striptease sequence.

Credits
Producer:Edward D. Wood Jr.
Cast:Dolores Fuller, Lyle Talbot, Steve Reeves, Theodora Thurman

Notes
Edward D. Wood Jr. does here, for film noir, what he had done for science fiction in "Plan 9 from Outer Space": turn in an extremely low-rent interpretation of the genre that manages to highlight a classic type of Hollywood film with his own inimitable style.

A Howco Picture production. Copyright renewed 1991 by Wade Williams. The Rhino re-release (of the "Director's Cut") includes a strip-tease segment shot in a burlesque house that has no discernible relation to the plot (although Don Gregor and Vic Brady later rob another theater of its payroll).

Rated BBFC PG by the British Board of Film Classification.

Credits also include thanks to Westwood Knitting Mills (for knitwear); Jerry Mann (for ladies suits); Gene D. Evans (for dresses); Chic & Pandora (for lingerie); Larry Moses (for locations); Hunters Inn (locations) and the Alhambra Police Department, the Temple City Sheriff's Substation, and the Hollywood branch of the Los Angeles Police department.
