Details

In this third installment of the "Olga" series, our heroine adds jewel smuggling to her repertoire of dope pushing and white slavery. As the vicious Olga (Audrey Campbell) expands her criminal empire, she also encounters more resistance as a string of once-trusted partners turn traitor in an effort to steal the successful racket out from under her. The result is exactly what fans of the series expect, a barrage of torture scenes featuring soldering irons, floggings, spankings, and even an electric chair. As with its predecessors, Olga's House of Shame is a silent black and white film with narration to explain the action, but even with direct commentary it's difficult to keep track of the characters and Campbell (who is occasionally caught laughing out loud at the absurdity of it all) has all the menace of a kindergarten teacher, even when wielding a machete.

Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Ploydsge just watch it!
Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
FrogGlace In other words,this film is a surreal ride.
Woodyanders The ruthless Olga (the striking Audrey Campbell in fine fearsome form) relocates her crime syndicate to an old abandoned mine. She's helped out by her depraved brother Nick (ably played to the slimy hilt by W.B. Parker) and eager protégé Elaine (a solid performance by the lovely Alice Davis). Once again, director/co-director Joseph P. Mawra and co-writer/producer George Weiss cover all the satisfyingly sleazy exploitation bases: We've got lots of brutal torture (everything from spanking to bondage), a pleasing amount of tasty distaff skin, nice use of the rundown mine main location, a robust classical music film library score (you'll never hear "Night on Bald Mountain" quite the same way again), and even some mild lesbianism. Slim fox Josel does a cool'n'sultry belly dance while slender minx Ella Daphni provides a delicious eyeful as the enticing Nadja. The tight 70 minute running time ensures that this flick never becomes dull or overstays its welcome. Joel Holt's gloriously overripe narration adds an amusing element of histrionic kitsch. William Rose's crisp hand-held black and white cinematography rates as another major asset. Good tawdry fun.
Josh Pasnak This is the third entry of the 'official' Olga series with Audrey Campbell playing the lead character. The addition of a bit of a plot makes this quite an improvement over White Slaves of Chinatown and the character began to grow on me a little bit. I am starting to see why Campbell ended up becoming a sexploitation icon but the film still failed to live up to the hype that has been bestowed on the series over the years.Some improvements in this film were a cool location for Olga's lair (an abandoned ore mine), cinematography that was much more interesting with a number of clever shots and some great looking black and white photography, and the addition of another main female character named Elaine. This character would go on to star in the next film in the series entitled Mme. Olga's Massage Parlour that has apparently become lost over the years. I thought that Alice Davis (aka. Judy Young) was perfect as the young protégé of Olga. That being said, some of the more annoying elements of the first film were still present including the terribly repetitious use of "Night On Bald Mountain" and the voice-over.Sexploitation fans will be happy that this contains the most nudity of the series, there is a belly dancer, and the requisite torture scenes are plentiful but relatively tame in comparison to what was to come with the many knock-offs in the 70's. If you are only planning to see one Olga movie in your life, this is probably the best one to check out.
IMOvies OLGA'S HOUSE OF SHAME (1964)0 (of ****)I love mindless perversion as much as the next red blooded guy when it's done right. This is just a terrible film, not even enjoyable for a sexploitation flick. Women are unconvincingly abused with not even the slightest attempt to make it look real. No dialogue, just narration - much of it unintentionally funny but not enough to waste your time.
Jens-28 This is the 3rd movie in the infamous Olga series starring Audrey Campbell and it's a classic sickie! The pseudo mondo narration and the Wagner-like music gives the film an unique edge. It's low budget but nicely shot (handheld camera, dogme-style!) in glorious b/w and Miss Campbell is captivating in a twisted sort of way. This torture/bondage fest must've been pretty shocking in 1964. John Waters went to filmschool in New York around that time and said it influenced him more than any Eisenstein movie! Waters was expelled within a year in a reefer scandal. Michael Medved was right: THESE FILMS ARE UNHEALTHY! Producer George Weiss also backed another trash classic, Ed Wood's "Glen Or Glenda"! "Olga", an anti-PC masterpiece, and "Love Camp 7" are the obvious inspiration for the wonderful "Ilsa" movies and countless others. Jess Franco and Joe D'amato fans should defintely check in at this House Of Shame!
