What happens

Slave Girls from Beyond Infinity is a 1987 sexploitation film that utilises the premise of the frequently-adapted 1924 short story "The Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell, setting it on an alien world and populating it with bikini-clad space prison escapees and weird space monsters. It was directed by Ken Dixon and stars Elizabeth Kaitan, Cindy Beal, Brinke Stevens, Don Scribner, and Carl Horner. The film combines the typical themes of women in prison film with those of science fiction. The women's prison is depicted as a Soviet-style gulag. The film was the topic of a political controversy in 1992, when Senator Jesse Helms cited it as an example of indecent films that should not be broadcast by cable channels. Helms' attempt to introduce a new censorship standard for cable television was blocked by a 1996 decision of the United States Supreme Court. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
