SS Experiment Love Camp Audience Reviews

Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
PiraBit if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
boredaboi Well SS Experiment Camp....Love Camp...Hate Camp. This is the notorious banned filmed, What was the bbfc thinking off. I wish i never seen it now. Its a bit like when i was young thinking there was a santa claus, thinking he was real. The same thing applies here. Before i watched i used to think wow what a film SS experiment camp was. But the was mainly to it getting banded and people saying have you seen that film were the Germans have sex yeah SSex...periment camp on people. The only reason it got banned was the concept of the film not the film. If you manage to leave it on all the way you will say the same. I know some people will like it but hey i love Dumbo. Well rubbish acting rubbish effects. Cheap German porn thats it. This film has many other sequels in different title forms love camp etc etc. And The Beast in Heat another stupid porno a man in a cage injected with monkey juice rapes (well if its rape without an erection) women. Go watch them now and tell me what you think. I used to hunt out films like this and think great but this should never have been put on the list. Go watch Sodom or Holy Mountain......SS? ZZ the sleep camp....
Bloomer SS Experiment Love Camp is a film that makes Love Camp 7 look downright lovable. And I don't mean that in a 'This isn't a film for wimps, while Love Camp 7 is' kind of way. I mean that relatively speaking, Love Camp 7 has a lot going for it and may engage or entertain you in its special fashion, but that SS Experiment Love Camp most certainly does not, and won't.'Sex experiments in pursuit of a better tomorrow!' screams the tagline. Being carried out by various fools in a Nazi-run slave brothel during WWII, these experiments consist in the first place of observing how German soldiers couple with female prisoners in transparent waist- high water tanks, or on white-sheeted beds. Cue softcore sex scenes. The second kind of experiment involves no sex but lots of particularly idiotic violence. I'll admit that the cruelty of some of these scenes is affecting, but it's hard to get away from the pervading feeling of stupidity. For instance, can you really learn anything by sticking a tube in a woman's ear and then blasting her eardrum with several atmospheres of pressure? The folks playing the unflappable camp staff act as if they really think they can. Truly, it's not just for the purposes of sadism. 'What, she's dead? Get another one in, we'll try the experiment again.' They're also obsessed with perfecting the 'uterus transplant' procedure, a yucky effect you get to see at least three times. Unsurprisingly, these operations, which were clearly going nowhere, come to nothing. The film is for the most part a momentumless series of such softcore sex and shabbily portrayed torture scenes, further undercut by the silliest-looking dubbing I've seen in a film of this genre and the least convincing casting of a period film ever. The German troops look and act - and above all, sound - like American GIs.Even for folks who want to watch them - like myself - these Nazi sexploitation films are acknowledged as being pretty hard to surpass in terms of bad taste, so when one is executed as dumbly as SS Experiment Love Camp, it sort of topples over into a zone where it could easily be viewed as a complete insult to humanity. You've got a film about Nazi experiments, but they're quite ridiculous. The film's hopeless in its period detail and everyone has a broad American accent. Jewishness isn't mentioned at all (not totally exceptional for this genre, but in this film, again, it somehow looks worse). There's almost no development, no suspense and no engagement value of any kind, except during the last twenty minutes, when they throw in the testicular transplant plot development which I haven't previously mentioned. The ball action and some unintended laughs are about the only things which stick out of this quite dull, dumb and thoroughly poor entry in the genre.
Chris Barry If you like the worst of the worst (Or is it the best of the best?) you simply have to check out the Nazisploitation genre. They will NEVER make movies like this again. Thank God.If you want to imagine what these films are like, just drop your jaw and keep it there for two hours.SS Experiment, aka SS Experiment Camp, was, like many of the more notorious Nazisploitationers, made in Italy. The explosion of this type of material was the result of the success(?) of other films like "Ilsa She Wolf of the SS", the ultra-crap "Night Porter" and Pasolini's "Salo", three films that couldn't have been further apart in intent if they tried. Ilsa is noteworthy because it is the ONLY film legendary soft-core producer David F. Friedman took his name OFF (Though he also made a strangely nascent precursor to the genre with Love Camp 7 where he actually played an SS officer. (Isn't he Jewish?)) Regardless, everyone involved with these films, be they producers or consumers, (including this viewer), should be ashamed of themselves.Of all the Italian Nazisploitationers, this one isn't the best, nor is it the worst. (Others include SS Girls, Gestopo's Last Orgy, SS Hell Camp and Tinto Brass's super-stupid Salon Kitty, which like his pathetic Caligula, has a weird soft-core sheen that makes it extra-unbelievable.) How these actors and actresses performed these roles without running straight out of the studio is beyond me. I guess money talks. But isn't there a point where you look at a script and go, "Sheesh, 100 million people died in WW2. Isn't this slightly insulting to their memory? Let alone the memory of those who died in the death camps of Auschwitz, Ravensbruck and Belson?" I guess not. After all, once you've signed on to do a movie called SS Experiment Camp all bets are off.Interestingly, these films very rarely acknowledge the Holocaust or the "Jewish" angle at all, and few of them are blatantly racist, which I suppose redeems them a little. But isn't it uncomfortable to think they were made in a nation that actually sided with the Nazis? Isn't this a connection you WOULDN'T want to emphasis? These movies, by the way, would NEVER have been made in Germany. (Could you imagine?!?) By the way, for those of you who didn't go to film school, Pasolini's Salo was NOT AN EXPLOITATION FILM!!! I cannot stress this enough. It was an appendix to his Trilogy of Life which also included his adaptations of The Decameron, Arabian Nights and Canterbury Tales. Salo is closer to its original text, (Sade's 120 Days of Sodom) than anything else. Actually, most of Salo is verbatim from De Sade's book, with only minor alterations. Please, for the love of God, don't confuse that film with this one! Though I find it somewhat funny that so many people make this connection, I forgive them, because they obviously haven't seen SS Experiment Camp. Believe me, it's not coming to a Cinematheque near you anytime soon!
HumanoidOfFlesh Sergio Garrone's "SS Experiment Camp" is a total failure on every possible level.This film was banned in Britain as a video nasty,but it surely isn't as outrageous as many people claim.In fact it's pretty tame even by today's standards.There is some torture and humiliation and lots of nudity and soft-core sex.Some scenes are pretty mean-spirited for example one woman who refuses to go through the experiments is put into the tank.The temperature is first put up to almost boiling point and then the dial is turned the other way making it icy cold.Still the film is extremely dull,so fans of Italian exploitation may be disappointed.Avoid this one like the plague-watch "Beast in Heat" or "Gestapo's Last Orgy" instead!
