Italian
An Italian exploitation film directed by Sergio Garrone. The UK video sleeve was instrumental in kicking off the “video nasties” moral panic of the 1980s though the film was later released uncut and with little fanfare in the UK.
Premise
A group of women prisoners are brought to one of the Nazis' notorious death camps and there forced to ‘mate' with healthy German troops just back from the front. Those who refuse to comply are tortured, experimented upon and abused before being thrown into the camp's furnace. Eventually, some of the prisoners try to rebel.
