The Movie:
Women are drafted into the German Armed forces to fight along side the men, well…actually porking the men, to in the hopes of boosting the team's morale. That team being the Nazis in World War II. A doctor recruited by the Nazis is forced to examine the women to deem them fit for “dutyâ€, but in order to keep his daughters out of harms way he lies about their physical conditions. He gets caught of course, is sent to the front line, and then his daughters are drafted into service anyway. Looks like his plan failed. Now all three of them are screwed (or going to be).
So as time ticks on, eventually one of his daughters is being held captive in a little village with a slew of other hot naked German ladies, and the village is about to be attacked. But get this: it's not by the Russians, but by the father's own battalion is going to attack the village. How about that? Didn't see that one coming did you? Such intrigue and war-torn drama takes place all the while incredibly naked women are filling the screen. This movie has TONS of skin in it, which is really the only thing that makes this one worth watching. Take the nudity out and it's a pretty weak war drama.
To call this one Nazisploitation may not necessarily be true. The back of the box says “Probably one of the weirdest Nazisploitation movies I've ever seen!†(but the quote isn't credited to anyone) and there's a good reason for that. It lacks the meanness and the violence of what we expect from a film under that genre label. This plays out like a slick looking softcore sex romp that just so happens to take place in World War II and in the Nazi army, but that's about as Nazi-exploitive as it get. Another fact that sort of takes it out of the genre is that Germans made it, and it portrays the Nazis like any war film made in the U.S. would portray Roosevelt or Patton. It never goes into the Nazi nastiness that's expected from a Nazisploitation flick.
So, don't expect anything even remotely similar to the Ilsa movies or SS Hell Camp or you'll be sorely disappointed. What can you expect? A nicely photographed movie with a pretty dumb story, but filled with copious amounts of female flesh and even some half-decent battle scenes. It's a bit long and drags at times, but the sleaze quotient is high which should make the movie a success amongst the pervs and midnight movie fans. And it's from the man who directed Girls Without Lovers and Rolls-Royce Baby, and produced Mad Foxes and Barbed-Wire Dolls. What other reason does anyone need to give it a whirl?
Video/Audio/Extras:
Cheezy actually put out a decent looking movie, which doesn't seem to be a common occurrence. Past experiences have been met average tape quality of public domain pictures, so not a lot of love gets put into them. Not a lot of love seems to have gone into Frauleins either, but it looks miles better than most of the stuff Cheezy puts out. Colors are decent, detail is pretty good; it's a pretty clear picture. The audio is a simple 2.0 channel stereo track, which serves the purpose. Balance is fine, and there's nothing glaring to report. For extras, the disc manufacturer has included “Intermission Timeâ€, which is about four minutes worth of drive-in intermission advertisements, and a five minute reel of trailers for other releases. Watch for Bloodsucking Nazi Zombies, and Invasion of the Blood Farmers.
The Final Word:
An entertaining enough movie with a TON of nudity and sleaze (plus bonus points for being dubbed in English), all set to a not-so mean-spirited Nazi Germany background. Certainly worth devoting your time to, even if it lacks a lot of the over-the-top violence and general evil attitude of typical movies in the category. The extras add nothing to the disc's value, but the image is nice enough to say yeah, pick this one up.
