You know that it being an exploitation movie doesn't mean it has to be ultra violent. The nature of the beast tend to make the newer ones pretty nasty but the genre is almost as old as cinema itself...
Alot of the Biker and Blaxploitaion films are pretty tame for the most part. As too are the Drug Exploiters from the 30's-60's. (think COcaine fiends/Reefer MAdness to The Trip/Psych-Out).
For the most part most of the NUNS in Covents/Women in Prison (weird that they are vey much the same) only deal with nudity and sexual repression. So do get violent like Greta the Mad Butcher (the 4th unofficial Ilsa movie) but the majority of the WIP genre is closed to Caged Heat.
And when People mention Exploitation these are the films that first spring to mind not 'A Serbina Film' or 'Men Behind The Sun'.
So there is a lot out there for you to still enjoy . Start with some Dwain Esper the Grand Daddy of em all:
