Captive Women 4

Elsa Ackerman is ordered by the SS to arrange a bordello on a train at the frontlines to keep up the morale among the German officers. The real reason is (of course) to spy on them to find traitors. It is an effective method and a lot of traitors are executed. When Franz, Elsa's boyfriend, is stationed on the train as an interpreter, things starts to go wrong. He falls in love with Liselotte, a spy for `La Resistance' and she convinces him to join them.

This Salon Kitty spin-off is pretty forgettable. The story is bleak and the ending is so sudden that I almost missed it. Elsa is good-looking and nicely evil, but her good properties is wasted in this far to mild flick. There are some memorable scenes though, for example when Elsa and Franz have s&m sex (boot licking) and when Elsa seduces a 20 year old virgin and then executes him. Notable is also that there's NO shower scene! Malisa Longo (Elsa) is also in Salon Kitty and Ilsa she-wolf of the SS. If you feel the need to see a nazisploitation flick (like I usually do) I'd recommend Red nights of the Gestapo, Gestapo's last orgy or Salon Kitty instead. Remember that even a bad nzispolitation is better than most movies!

A train run by Elsa, a sadistic female SS officer (Malisa Longo) and former prostitute is filled with protstitutes that travels around to serve the German army on leave.

A classic Nazisploitation movie that is also known as FRAULEIN DEVIL or CAPTIVE WOMEN 4 that exploits the success of the more stylish SALON KITTY (1976) with also a hint of the ILSA films about it. The beautiful Longo shows off her body at every available opportunity with plenty to please BDSM fans. As a film it is dreadful, but remains an erotic classic with plenty of admirers.

The featured video trailer on this page claims it is from ELSA, FRAULEIN SS (which stars Malisa Longo and Patrizia Gori) but it is NOT. It is from HELL TRAIN, starring Monika Swinn. Whoever put the title on the trailer is mistaken.

The movies are similar, but ELSA (a.k.a FRAULEIN DEVIL) is superior to HELL TRAIN, largely because Ms. Longo and Ms. Gori are much easier to look at than Ms. Swinn.

ELSA seems better photographed than HELL TRAIN also.

Patrizia Gori and Malisa Longo play similar characters in SHE-WOLF OF SPILBERG.

With the war effort going against them and talk of a possible coup against Adolf Hitler, the SS seizes upon the idea of using prostitutes to cavort with officers serving on the front lines in order to determine whether they are loyal to the Fuhrer or not. To do that they appoint a prostitute named "Elsa Ackermann" (Malisa Longo) to the rank of an SS colonel and recruit several nubile young women to assist her. They also give her a train to take them to the Western Front and to use for their sexual activities. Although Colonel Ackermann does indeed catch several disloyal officers, she has to contend with a spy within her group who causes her serious problems as well. Now rather than reveal any more of the plot and risk ruining the film for those who haven't seen it I will just say that, while this movie had a good premise, the low budget accompanied by poor direction caused everything to seem dull and plodding. As a matter of fact, other than the presence of Malisa Longo and Patrizia Gori (as "Liselotte Richter") there really wasn't anything that remarkable about this film. Because of that I rate it as below average.

Sadistic Aryan officer Elsa Ackermann (Malisa Longo) is given the task of overseeing a Nazi brothel on rails that has been created to help identify potential traitors, cowards and deserters within the SS elite. As the train rolls through the countryside, its high ranking passengers are plied with alcohol and sex in order to loosen their tongues, while Elsa listens in on the conversations, Luger cocked and ready to fire.

Relatively tame in terms of violence, Elsa Fräulein SS will no doubt disappoint those looking for some really tasteless entertainment, but the film definitely delivers when it comes to sex and nudity: the ladies Elsa chooses to 'entertain' on the train are easy on the eye and more than happy to bare all for soft-core canoodling with the film's Teutonic top-brass.

Elsa even joins in the with the frolicking herself, but being a sadistic bitch she is at her happiest when shooting people in her head for daring to question Der Führer and his Third Reich.

Full frontal female nudity; summary executions (virtually no blood though); a decadent Salon Kitty style singalong; the flogging of German cutie Liselotte (Patrizia Gori); some gratuitous oom-pah-pah music; Elsa in thigh high leather boots; a ginger, hippy resistance fighter and his Xmas sweater wearing pal: while this might not be among the most shocking effort the Nazisploitation genre has to offer, there's enough fun stuff to at least make it a serious contender for most enjoyable 'Nazisploitation-on-a-train' movie (admittedly, the only other one I can think of right now is Special Train for Hitler, and that's really bad!).
