Based on the novel by Edward Bunker, Animal Factory takes us along with young Ron Decker (Furlong) as he gets convicted for selling marijiuana and is sent off to a broken down prison where violence is an everyday occurance. He gets a break when Earl Copen (Dafoe), a veteran convict, shows him the ropes and helps him endure his time by securing him a decent job and seeing that he is not attacked...all while asking nothing in return...other than friendship. Mickey Rourke is even stranger than usual as Jan The Actress. (Laurie Sevano)
