3/10
Ugly and nonsensical in equal measure
4 April 2015
This follow-up to ILSA, SHE WOLF OF THE SS is another grisly sexploitation movie that mixes depraved violence and torture with endless softcore sex sequences. The film retains the same star and director as the first, although thankfully the unpleasant sequences have been toned down making this a lot tamer. I still found it deeply unpleasant in terms of the violence meted out towards the female cast members.

The story sees Ilsa relocated to the Middle East (or North Africa, it never makes it clear), where she runs the harem of a rich oil sheik. Inevitably she's a sadist at heart, dishing out all manner of depraved and sadistic torture to anybody who dares cross her; the 'highlight' involves one girl being gradually destroyed by various unpleasant methods including flesh-eating ants and an exploding dildo.

Much of the running time is padded out with big breasted women either being stripped or taking part in simulated sex, while some crashingly dull sub-plots involve spies and an attempt to liberate the oppressed. Dyanne Thorne's acting is poor, to say the least, but she does have a lot of presence as the statuesque anti-heroine. The all-action ending is unbelievable but at least it offers incident away from the endless sex and violence.
