Terminal Island is a 1973 exploitation action film directed by Stephanie Rothman.

Devoid of societal constraints and guard supervision, the convicts are left to form their own self-governed society. The plot explores the power struggles among the prisoners, focusing on the escalating tension between the ruthless male-dominated group led by Bobby (Sean Kenney) and the burgeoning resistance led by A.J. (Don Marshall) and Joy (Phyllis Davis). The film presents a grim view of human nature and the struggle for survival in a lawless society.
