MIND OVER MATTRESS

“It’s one of those low-budget, sexist, exploitative women’s prison movies. The kind with a lesbian gang.”
That’s how Kin Shriner matter-of-factly described “Angels Behind Bars,” in which he plays a sleazy, bearded prison warden “who more or less serves some of the women behind bars--you know?” It’s set for release this year. (Shriner also will be seen in a small role in the upcoming “Red Dragon.”)
Shriner knows all about playing bad guys. On “General Hospital,” he was the devious Scotty Baldwin, who nearly botched Luke and Laura’s chance at Everlasting Love. Scotty, the actor said, “wanted more than sex--he was obsessed with power.”
But his latest incarnation in “Angels Behind Bars” isn’t so complex: “I don’t think he’s got much more on his mind than making out,” Shriner said.
