Video Nasty: Love Camp 7 (1969)
Back again with another nazisploitation flick so time to hop on that train, not that I have a choice with a gun pointed at my nose by some skull cap wearing sergeant, and join the over crowded compartment on a one way ticket ride to Nazi Love Camp 7. Yup, my ass is grass this time! But at least it has Love in the title so might not be such a bad experience after all, and maybe there'll even be some hot women there, we shall see.
Plot:
Before I arrived at the camp, the british sent two female infiltrators on a mission to find out what really went down at those love camps.
So like me, off they go, and once (t)here it's rags off, and time to join the "fun" as LC7 is an experiment camp of the sexual kind where the inmates only purpose is to please soldiers in every way possible, so wtf am I doin' here!?
They should've sent me to the frontlines instead I guess, but for now I'm here hiding out in a soldiers uniform disguise, and lurking.
What's Good:
Crazy sexual violence carried out by sadistic officers. Well, that's not a good thing though, but it is after all what's expected when watching a video nasty.
Believable WW2 era sets, and the acting's not bad for a C grade flick like this one.
Cool blood splattered opening titles.
Funny portrayals of demented nazi soldiers, and officers that are more than slightly over the top.
It's an American film but looks exactly like an Italian nazi exploitation film, and predated those.
Controversial. Even now. Makes you think, and that's a good thing despite all the atrocities goin' down here.
What's Bad:
As always with the nazisploitation flix I have a hard time considering what went down at concentration camps during the big one entertainment no matter how unintentionally funny some scenes are, and no matter if this is a horror movie, or not, and is it really?
No. More of a shockumentary in a way. Either ways this one isn't really gory enough to have been labeled a video nasty, but it's as usual the sexualized violence that did the trick, and this is hard to sit through, and actually quite disgusting at it's worst, so it's only for the most jaded. I know you'll watch it anyway, but don't say I didn't warn you.
The Verdict:
The filmmakers did a decent job here showing some of what possibly happened in camps during WW2. The Nazis are as always portrayed as super sadistic, violent, sexual degenerates, and I have some what a hard time believing that all of them were super psychotic all of the time in real life but then again this is only a movie.
Finally, I managed to escape LC7, so did all the prisoners, and the nazis got what they deserved in the end. My brief stay at the Nazi Love Camp "Hotel" lacked love whatsoever though, so I'd rate it:
