I only wanted to see "SS Hellcamp, only because it's was on the infamous "Video Nasty" list. Yes indeed it's still banned in England, why I don't know it's all very Repelling, that SS Hellcamp is banned and "Spice World" isn't however. I wasn't at disappointed at all with this. I found it good and its thought provoking. There is some humor. If viewers find this offensive, then get a life and don't watch this. If you are into strange films than you'll love this. There is lots of sexy parts and action.The Nazi's experiments on a half-man and half-beast. They also find female prisoners to have sex with the beast. The only problems once the half-man half- beast is that he kills them. The rebels get to fight the good fight and the Nazi's get. Karma is a bitch.
... View MoreDepraved and sadistic Nazi scientist Dr. Ellen Kratsch (excellently played with lip-smacking wicked relish by the lovely Macha Magall) creates a brutish sex-crazed Neatherthal subhuman beast (hysterically portrayed with slobbering grunting gusto by tubby wonder Salvatore Baccaro) who rapes and eats beautiful young women who get tossed in its cage. Meanwhile, a guerrilla army of dedicated freedom fighters try to liberate Northern Italy from the cruel tyranny of the Third Reich. Writer/director Luigi Batzella scrupulously covers all the supremely seamy and revolting exploitation bases: plentiful tasty female nudity (several guys show their stuff as well), an unsparingly mean and sordid tone, savage animalistic rape (the beasts rips out one hapless victim's pubic hair and devours it by the handful!), truly vile and hateful Nazi villains, vicious, kinky, and excruciatingly graphic torture set pieces that include a gal having her stomach chewed open by rats, another chick having her fingernails yanked out with pliers, a horny male prisoner getting castrated by a topless Krastch, and, in the gloriously tasteless highlight, a little baby is tossed up in the air and heartlessly blown away by the loathsome Nazi swine; and an uncompromisingly gloomy ending. The lousy dubbing, cruddy (far from) special effects (the chintzy Tonka Toy plastic bomber plane in particular in is uproariously shoddy), Ugo Brunelli's crude cinematography, liberal use of obvious poor quality stock footage, Giuliano Sorgin's redundant shuddery synthesizer score, and the clumsily staged action scenes further add to this lovably appalling atrocity's considerable grimy charm. Entertaining low-grade junk.
... View MoreAfter viewing this movie a friend of mine Nick Mills proceeded to buy a Nazi SS uniform and run around the streets tossing babies up in the air and gunning them for target practice. He has also bought a big cage in which he ravages innocent females, directed by his mother who he has paid to act as a Nazi gestapo.All in all its a pretty awful film with reels from other movies blended in to make this longer than 10 minutes. I fear some of the actions displayed by the Nazis in this film are in no way representative of what actual human beings participate in. I have played Nazi Zombies.I find his behaviour to be odd and questionable. Wondered if anyone has experienced similar events after viewing this movie.
... View MoreLa Bestia in Calore (also known as SS Hell Camp, SS Experiment Part 2, The Beast in Heat and Horrifying Experiments of the S.S. Last Days) is one of the 74 video nasties banned in Britain. This film was not re-released and remains banned, as it should be.This is Naziploitation taken to the extreme. The doctor (Macha Magall) creates a love machine to use in torture. This is a beastly looking chap that is hopped upon drugs and can have sex non stop. Maybe this is the stuff they advertise on TV today for sexual dysfunction. The idea is to get captured locals to reveal the location of the partisans, but nobody ever seems to get a chance to talk before they are f*cked to death.There are many other methods used by these Germans including ripping fingernails, some nasty business with hamsters, and lots of whipping.In between the sexual torture, there is a war going on between the Germans and the partisans. I believe this is some stock footage taken to fill out the film. It is not very good stock footage as they appear to use toy planes.This film is strictly for those who like the Italian exploitation films of the 70's. All others will be repulsed at the extremely violent rape.
