Love Camp 7

Love Camp 7 is a 1969 American horror film directed by Lee Frost. It is one of the 72 films on the Director of Public Prosecutions' video nasties list, and it was successfully prosecuted for obscenity.

The film that started the nazisploitation cycle. Lee Frost, a backlot, and no defence available.

The film that started the cycle, made in America six years before Ilsa.

Lee Frost and Bob Cresse were making nudie pictures and roughies on the Los Angeles fringe and worked out that a wartime setting let them show things a contemporary setting would not. Cresse produced it and cast himself as the commandant.

Two female agents volunteer to be interned to extract a scientist. The espionage plot exists to move them between rooms.

It is technically poor, it was shot for almost nothing, and its historical significance is that it demonstrated the formula worked commercially. Everything in this corner of the list descends from it.

Successfully prosecuted in Britain. The BBFC refused it a certificate in 2002 and again in 2020, which makes it one of the very few DPP titles still unavailable there.
