In an un-named banana republic, where a Nazi-style regime rules by force, sadistic lesbian bitch Helga (Malisa Longo) is assigned her dream job as governor of a women's prison, where she uses her position of power to satisfy her sexual urges; the inmates are also abused by the prison doctor (Jacques Marbeuf), who keeps the guards in alcohol in exchange for sex with the women of his choice. New inmate Elisabeth Vogel (Patrizia Gori) quickly catches the eye of both Helga and the Doc (must be the non-standard-issue knee high leather boots she wears), but being the daughter of a tough rebel soldier, she is determined to resist
Ilsa, Elsa, Greta, Helga: what's in a name? This forgettable entry in the Nazisploitation/Women in Prison genre(s) does little to distinguish itself from similar tawdry fare, offering up the expected full frontal nudity from a bevy of attractive women, repeated forced sex, and torture-lite. Sounds like the recipe for a fun time, but the repetitive and plodding plot ensures that tedium soon sets in, while the unconvincing stock bird-song which accompanies every external scene eventually becomes irritating in the extreme.

Having fallen into slight disfavor with the tyrant in charge of a totalitarian regime, "Helga" (Melissa Longo) is sent to a castle somewhere near the town of Spilberg to take charge of a labor camp for female political prisoners. Needless to say she is quite ruthless as she not only takes advantage of the prisoner's labor but also their bodies when they are finished working. Then one day, much to her delight, a new prisoner named "Elisabeth Vogel" (Patrizia Gori) is captured and because she is the daughter of the head revolutionary in the country, Helga becomes obsessed in her desire to possess her. Now rather than reveal any more of this movie and risk spoiling it for those who haven't seen it I will just say that this was a standard Women-in-Prison film which suffered due to its apparent low budget as both the acting and the sets were clearly second-rate. Additionally, as far as the actresses were concerned only the aforementioned Melissa Longo and Patrizia Gori were all that attractive. Be that as it may, those who enjoy this particular type of film might find this one somewhat interesting but even so it's nothing to get excited about. Slightly below average.
An unashamed rip-off of the Ilsa movies (She Wolf of the SS, Harem Keep of the Oil Sheiks, The Wicked Warden, Tigress of Siberia). The title is even a play on "She Wolf of the SS" and the tagline in the poster proclaims that Ilsa is nothing compared to Helga.
That turns out to be false advertising as this movie is pretty tame compared to Ilsa, especially She Wolf of the SS. Not just that, but everything about this movie is worse than She Wolf of the SS and the Ilsa movies in general: weaker plot, worse performances, cheaper production. The Ilsa movies were hardly classic cinema but this movie makes them look like Citizen Kane!

I dont know where to start. What a turkey! Helga seems so sad its comic! She tries to scare her prisoners into having sex with her only to be denied and ends up crying in her bed..
Her "torture" is things like holding the girls head under a running faucet for three seconds and flogging them.
Or simply command them back to their dorm!
Shes def no Ilsa and the whole movie lacks the punch of those movies..
Its also repetitive and slow...
Nothing shocking if thats what your looking for, unless you're very sensitive.
Feels like a Jess Franco film more then a sadistic WIP movie..
Not recommended
It's a fun little flick. With the expected thrills and highlights. The production must have been financed by a trenchcoat company. All female prisoners outfits consist of a black trenchcoat and boots.
....and of course nothing else.

- TriviaUses stock footage from the 1967 movie TOBRUK for the final battle scene in the capital.
- Alternate versionsThe original version runs 93 minutes, though most cuts run only 86 minutes, and one French DVD edition is reported at 108 minutes. The hardcore version "Marion la perverse" (73 minutes) was filmed back-to-back in the same location, with no opening or closing credits, and no dialogue, substituted by a male voice-over narration telling a (rather different) story. It shows more of the palace interiors, and features some members of the cast in different roles, and additional actors, performing the sex scenes.
