"Die Todesgöttin des Liebescamps" or "Love Camp" is the probably most known work by "filmmaker" Christian Anders. He wrote his one, directed it and also plays the central male character. It is from 1981, so has its 35th anniversary this year and there seem several version out. The one watched ran for only 75 minutes which was great as it was really not a good watch. The only thing memorable was probably the bright blond hair from the young Christian Anders. This is the story of a daughter of a senator, who ends up with some hippie cult, who live in accordance with their own free-spirit kinda ways. Or not really. As inside this cult, there is all kinds of violence, torture, sexual abuse and even murder. The cult leader is played by Laura Gemser, an Indonesian actress who is probably known to some. But neither she nor anybody else in this film has strong acting talent, although you cannot really judge that from the way the characters are written. I still would say it was not as bad as some other German sexploitation films from the 1970s and there are a couple bearable scenes and moments, but of course it is not even close to being good enough for me to recommend the watch. Thumbs down.
