Synopsis:

Angie Dickinson essays the title role in Big Bad Mama. This Depression-era crime caper casts the future star of Police Woman as sexy Ma Barker type Wilma McClatchie, who forces her nubile daughters (Susan Sennett, Robbie Lee) into participating in a robbery/kidnapping/murder spree. Wilma seems to be as motivated by the erotic thrill of lawbreaking as she is by the financial gains. She evens hops in the sack with her daughters, as does her common-law husband, played by William Shatner. A sequel appeared in 1987.

In this trashy cult classic, a beautiful widow (Angie Dickinson) hits the road to Texas with her teenage daughters (Susan Sennet and Robbie Lee). On the way, they become outlaws due to their armed-robbery pit stops. Mum also finds time to teach her daughters the facts of life. William Shatner and Tom Skerritt also star.

A tough, intelligent, aggressive pistol-packing mama with two daughters leave Texas, in 1932, and almost by accident, become bank robbers and eventually form a bizarre, sexually loose family/gang with a professional bankrobber and friend.
