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.
