In the tradition of THE NIGHT PORTER, SALON KITTY and SALO only far more depraved comes perhaps the most notorious Nazisploitation epic of them all: Daniela Levy (aka Italian TV presenter and future UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Daniela Poggi) stars as a beautiful young death camp prisoner forced into a nightmare of brutality, torment and sexual degradation. But will a Commandant’s vilest urge trigger her ultimate vengeance? Marc Loud (aka Adriano Micantoni of TOMB OF TORTURE) co-stars in this fetid slice of filth-strüdel also known as LAST ORGY OF THE THIRD REICH and CALIGULA REINCARNATED AS HITLER now presented totally uncut and uncensored, including the infamous dinner scene that still has the film banned in the UK!
Coming two years after Salo, I feel this is a Nazipolitation film that really takes perhaps more from that film than it does its own sub-genre. While this might not be my personal type of film, the stuff you see here is certainly creative in the more horrible way possible. You see people burned alive and other cringworthy scenes of both a violent and sexual nature. It doesn’t give us a whole heck of a lot in the plot category, but what you get makes for a visual car crash that you can’t seem to turn away from. There is ups and downs from both a story and quality standpoint overall, but the creative side of this one surely went into the darker side of the film instead of the story.
It also packs some visual aspects that you can’t look over. Some of the setting seem visual neat even when there isn’t really quality in the plot to back that up. You get the blood, guts, and naked bodies that you expect with stuff like this. It tosses in some visual gems and even some very controversial moments. I’m not sure if this will be anyone’s cup of tea outside of just the folks who love these types of movies, but there is something here to see, even if it perhaps morally isn’t the best thing you could watch. This one offers a lot, that could be taken as both in a good and bad sense. If you enjoy sex and Jews being burned alive at a dinner table you can get this one from Intervision!
