Ilsa, She Wolf Of The SS - Don Edmonds - USA - (1975)




Plot from Imdb: " Ilsa is an evil Nazi warden at a death camp that conducts "medical experiments". Ilsa's goal is to prove that woman can withstand more pain and suffering than men and therefore should be allowed to fight on the front lines."

First part of the infamous Ilsa series, this gruesome piece of Sexploitation and Nazisploitation is really a nasty experience. Despite the disclaimer of the producers, the movie is one of the most exploitive piece of cinema ever imagined: along with the Nazi imagery and the horror of the torture sequences, comes some erotic scenes, led by Dyanne Thorne, maybe the most unerotic figure of the Sexploitation genre (in my opinion). But as a complete fucked up and absurd experience, "Ilsa.." is an interesting viewing experienced. As much ridiculous (Dyanne Thorne characterization is sooooo over the top) as it is gruesome, the results is strange and leaves you with a bitter feeling. Can't say I'm a great fan of the film, as I had trouble to distanced myself from the subject (as I was raised amongst the Paris Jewish community, I have a hard time trying to find anything "fun" about the death camps).
Anyway, the movie is so exploitative in every aspect that it needs a viewing as it became a classic an is often referred to. It will also introduce you to the great world of Ilsa, a hardcore "mistress" of epic proportions (specially her breast).
