Joseph P. Mawra
Shanty Tramp
On a hot night in Dixie, the local shanty tramp heads out for adventure and leaves disaster in her wake. The lust she excites in the local men leads to fights, murders, lynch mobs, ruined reputations, and broken homes.
Chained Girls
This jaw-dropping non-documentary by sleaze sultan Joseph P. Mawra pulls out all the stops to paint a picture of the “plight” of the lesbian, circa 1965. Of course, it’s just a grindhouse picture for the raincoat crowd–but it’s also an amazing “accidental documentary” of mid-60s Greenwich Village.
Murder in Mississippi
In a small Mississippi town, a bigoted sheriff detains a group of mixed-race civil rights workers who have come to register voters. When things get out of hand and several of them are murdered in custody, a tragic and violent chain of events is set off.
