SS Experiment Camp

SS Experiment Camp is a 1976 Italian horror film directed by Sergio Garrone. It is one of the 72 films on the Director of Public Prosecutions' video nasties list, and it was successfully prosecuted for obscenity.

Notorious in Britain almost entirely for its poster. The film is inert.

Notorious in Britain almost entirely for its poster, which showed a woman suspended upside down and was the centre of its advertising campaign.

For a great many people it is the only thing they have ever seen from the film, and that is roughly the correct amount.

Sergio Garrone shot this and a second nazisploitation picture back to back with the same cast and sets, which was standard practice for the cycle.

The film is dull, which is not a defence and is worth stating: the notoriety is entirely a marketing artefact.

Successfully prosecuted, and one of the titles the DPP list is most associated with despite almost nobody having sat through it.

The poster, a woman suspended upside down, was raised in Parliament and printed in the papers that were campaigning against the tapes.
