Chained for Life (The Film Detective Restored Version)

This "bold, daring and frank" exploitation film features famed conjoined twins, the vaudeville sensations Violet and Daisy Hilton, portraying fictionalized versions of themselves in a narrative that reflects their tragic and unfortunate lives. Used and mistreated by their craven manager, the Siamese twins find themselves in trouble with the law when one of them murders a duplicitous scamp after he jilts her sister following a devastating sham marriage. Equal parts compelling and heartbreaking, Chained for Life doubles as both a thrilling noir and a sad account of the ill-fated Hilton Sisters.
