Synopsis:
"The Most Wicked Ilsa Of Them All!
Dyanne Thorne
is back as the sadistic ruler of a South American prison for
deranged women. But when a young journalist goes undercover
to find her missing sister, she learns that survival means
submission to the perverse appetites of the guards, the convicts
and the wicked warden herself. Soon, this jungle hellhole
is aflame with the passions of the depraved
and one final
act of savage revenge!
Directed by the infamous Jess
Franco (Succubus,
Two Undercover Angels),
this legendary shocker was released in various censored versions
as Greta The Torturer, Ilsa: Absolute Power and Wanda The
Wicked Warden. Now completely restored from original vault
materials, Ilsa The Wicked Warden is presented completely
uncut in all its notoriously sleazy glory!" -

My oppinion:
Usually I don't think Jess
Franco's WIP-type movies are too cruel, they're
more like "innocently" cruel, if you see what I
mean. His contribution to the Ilsa saga is of his cruellest
in my opinion. Ilsa, the Wicked Warden is not an official
part of the Ilsa series, but a rip-off to suck some more money
from the Ilsa-"brand" I guess. Usually these types
of movies are much worse then the originals, but this one
is an exception. Franco is the perfect director for this kind
of movie as he's the uncrowned king of euro sleaze. You'll
get LOTS of nudity and many scenes of cruelty and depravity
and Lina Romay
is as beautiful as ever. Especially look out for the violent
scene at the end, man is that classic! Also, the acting is
surprisingly good for a Franco flick. In the end, I think
The Wicked Warden is better then "Ilsa,
Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks" and even though
it's not as shocking as "Ilsa,
She Wolf of the SS", I found it to be just
as entertaining. So, if you're an exploitation or Ilsa fan,
you should enjoy this one!
My rating:
