Other than a KICK ASS soundtrack, and Liz Hurley looking shag-a-delic, yes it was pretty bad.

I have them lumped together in my memory, sort of like mental compression of a file, you lose some data, but you gain a lot of space that is useful for other things like remembering how to breathe and stuff...

Yes, it was, and based on a damn fine Harlan Ellison Novella, too.

They cast the wrong dog.

"Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS"

My boyfriend took me to a drive-in to see this, circa 1977, with the idea that we'd get all hot watching it. It was soooo awful, with such vile acts against women, that I burst into tears and demanded that we leave! Ack, it was garbage....just horrible.

Since then....

"Annie" Saw this with my Mom and Grandma; Grandma swore in Italian and walked out just as Punjab unwound his turban to save the girl....my Mom and I laughed so hard we were shrieking out loud and had to follow her out, with everyone "Shushing" us, lol!

"Vanilla Sky" WHAT crap! With an afterthought ending tacked on, even more lame than the ending of the book "The Story Of O".

"My Life as a House" Pedophilia and a variety of other personal quirks can be cured by community projects! Awwwww....

Okay...I'll stop being ugly now....

Did you know that there is a whole series of Ilsa films? I haven't been able to bring myself to watch any of them.

Fat Albert was so horrible that it pissed me off. I probably should have known better than to have high expectations for a live action movie based on a beloved cartoon (it has worked occasionally), but there you go.

SWMBO was permanently scarred by watching Ilsa, she wolf etc. as a teen. I can't imagine, it must have been bad. Hello parents?

I can certainly understand why; I was perhaps 18 myself. Its images remained with me for years. And I saw it at a DRIVE-IN! Can you imagine???

Considering the era in which it was made, I cannot imagine the targeted audience, you know? If it were made now.....even NOW I cannot imagine....it was not merely sadistic, it was all torture, murder, mutilation....sooooo vile. I have never mustered the courage to do a Search on it, to see who the devil made this thing - and WHY!

Allow me!

No one you have ever heard of, I'm betting. Here's the Director's curriculum vitae. The most legitimate thing he ever did was act in a few episodes of "Hunter". It all goes downhill from there.

Yes, if you mean the Ted Neely version.

A couple of years ago a new director did a made-for-TV version that was very good, IMHO.

I disagree. I played the soundtrack to death in school, and the movie is a faithful, if not perfect reproduction of that pleasant memory. Like watching a concert movie where the songs are ones you originally loved as studio tracks.
