Scum (1979)

This film was made in 1979 based around the prison borstal system that ran in Britain from the 1920's to the 1980's. This was not the first time that this film had been made. In 1977 Scum was made as a TV movie. But was band from being screened by the BBC for being too violent, so it was made again with mostly the same cast for the big screen, it also had a bigger budget.

The borstal system was set up to take  young males from the ages of 14-25 who had committed a crime and would be sent to a Borstal Prison for a short, sharp, shock for up to six weeks, where they would be told what to do and when to do it at all times.

I think that's why the TV film was band at the time, was for the male rape scene that was very violent at the time, and to this day has not been shown on TV. You can now see both on DVD. and they are very good.
