What can we say about Sharkansas Women's Prison Massacre that hasn't been said a thousand times before? When the SyFi Channel called writer/producer/director Jim Wynorski and asked him, ''Do you have anything like Sharknado?'' being the resourceful and clever fellow he is he immediately made up something with a shark – and instantly pitched Sharkansas Women's Prison Massacre. Shortly thereafter the film was made on a very long production schedule – fifteen days. Jim Wynorski doesn't fool around, which is why he's made more movies than Martin Scorsese.
The fact is, if you're a fan of exploitation films, you undoubtedly know who Jim Wynorski is. For Sharkansas Women's Prison Massacre he, of course, went to his composer of choice, Chuck Cirino – they're a team, like Hitchcock and Herrmann and Williams and Spielberg and Abbot and Costello. Jim comes from a time when making movies was nothing but a fun adventure, and Chuck understands that sensibility perfectly. Chuck is a fine composer and understands these films and knows just what kind of music they require – as Jim Wynorski says, ''Heartfelt and pulse-pounding melodies.'' It's truly a fun score. And any movie that stars both Traci Lords and Dominique Swain is worth seeing.
So, here is the world-premiere CD release of Sharkansas Women's Prison Massacre, something you won't want to be without. Mastered by the great James Nelson, it's fun, it's irreverent, it's Sharkansas!
