This movie begins in the Spring of 1941 with a nightclub singer named "Ingrid Schuler" (Monica Swinn) entertaining a group of Nazi officers. A few months later an announcement is made that Germany has invaded the Soviet Union and it's around this time that Ingrid is commissioned into the army and put in command of several young women who have enlisted for the sole purpose of satisfying the sexual appetites of German officers fighting for the Third Reich. Since most of these officers are located at a distance from Germany's borders a special train is put at Ingrid's disposal which has all of the comforts of a normal brothel. At first all of the women are strictly volunteers, but as time progresses some are conscripted as well. Likewise, as the war begins to take a turn for the worse their mission also changes which leaves many of them very displeased. 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 film certainly had potential. Unfortunately, like many "Nazi Exploitation" films, this particular movie loses its focus by concentrating too heavily on rather extended (and sometimes repeated) scenes of a sexual nature while totally neglecting things like character development or creating smooth transitions from one scene to another. Now obviously this movie was never intended to win an Academy Award but that shouldn't prevent the director (James Gartner) from spending a little more time on the overall quality of the product. As it was this movie seemed too cheap and trashy-even by "Nazi Exploitation" standards. On a positive note, I liked the presence of who Sandra Mozarowsky (as "Greta") who I thought was quite attractive. Even so this wasn't enough for me to rate this movie any higher than I have.
