Nazisploitation horror pushes boundaries with medical experiments and sexual cruelty in a WWII camp.

WOMEN'S CAMP 119

1977 · 1h 37m · NR · Horror / Thriller / War · IMDB TMDB

A prisoner is forced to serve as a doctor's assistant, giving her a front row seat for the horrible goings-on. There's the experiment to revive Nazi soldiers who have frozen to death by having nude women rub their bodies all over the corpse (that one works), and the experiment tries to "cure" homosexual men by having nude women dance for them. This is only some of the horrors that are going on there.

Quick Answer

What is Women's Camp 119 about?

Women's Camp 119 is a 1977 Italian horror-thriller-war film directed by Bruno Mattei about a prisoner forced to assist a doctor in a Nazi camp, witnessing horrific experiments and abuses.

Programmer's Pick

Only Bruno Mattei could fuse Nazi atrocities with grindhouse sex-horror so brazenly. Women's Camp 119 is a fevered cocktail of sleaze and sadism, never shying away from its most shocking set pieces. This is exploitation cinema with both boots planted firmly in the gutter.

Overview

Women's Camp 119 immerses viewers in the brutal world of a Nazi concentration camp, where a female prisoner is compelled to serve as a doctor's assistant. This position exposes her to the depraved and sadistic experiments conducted by the camp’s authorities, including reviving frozen Nazi soldiers through bizarre methods and attempts to 'cure' homosexuality with forced erotic displays. The film is steeped in the notorious tropes of Nazisploitation, blending horror, sexual violence, and exploitation as it depicts the relentless cruelty and perverse scientific practices that occur behind barbed wire. Audiences should expect a harsh and provocative entry in the Italian exploitation canon, punctuated by graphic content and psychological torment.
