Human Experiments is a women in prison film (also known as Beyond The Gate and Women In Prison) starring Linda Haynes, Geoffrey Lewis and Ellen Travolta. It is director/writer/producer Gregory Goodell's only feature film to be released in cinemas, this film earned its notoriety for being targeted by England's Director of Public Prosecutions during the video nasty furore in the early 1980s. Although it was listed on the first video nasty list issued by the DPP on July 4, 1983, the film was never prosecuted under the Obscene Publications Act and had originally been given an uncut (now defunct) X rating by the BBFC for theatrical release in 1979.

Synopsis

Rachel Foster est une chanteuse de musique country qui parcourt les États-Unis seule, chantant dans les bars et les petites scènes locales. Justement, après un concert dans un bar, elle quitte précipitamment les lieux car elle est importunée par le propriétaire, Mat Tibbs, dont elle a refusé les avances. Malheureusement pour elle, dans sa fuite, elle a un accident avec sa voiture et doit se réfugier dans ce qui lui semble être une maison abandonnée mais qui est, en fait, le lieu de multiples homicides. Arrêtée par le shérif local, qui n'est autre que le frère du propriétaire du bar, elle est inculpée pour ces meurtres qu'elle n'a pas commis et se trouve soumise aux méthodes sadiques du psychiatre de la prison, le docteur Kline…

Nami Matsushima (Meiko Kaji) is set up by her boyfriend, a crooked police detective named Sugimi (Isao Natsuyagi) to win favor with the Yakuza. She is raped by several drug dealers. She makes a failed attempt to stab Sugimi on the steps of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Headquarters. She is sentenced to do hard time in a women's prison. Matsushima is given the number 701. The prison is run by sadistic and lecherous male guards. The prisoners are forced to walk up and down a stair-like contraption naked with male guards watching from below. While in prison she meets inmates like Yuki Kida (Yayoi Watanabe) who was committed for fraud and theft, Otsuka (Akemi Negishi), jailed for burglary and extortion, and Katagiri (Rie Yokoyama) who has been impounded for arson and illegally disposing of a body. On the outside, Sugimi and the Japanese mafia orchestrate a plan in which Matsushima will succumb to an "accidental" death in prison. They enlist the help of Katagiri, pulling on her ties to both Sugimi and the mafia, and quickly set their plan in motion.
