I reckon Ilsa: She Wolf of the SS would get by uncut today. I watched it 5 years ago but I said at the time that I saw no potential areas where the BBFC would have grounds to cut anything and I actually remember it very well. I'd definitely buy a release today if it came out. How would the other Nazi-death camp films fare nowadays? I've seen Gestapos Last Orgy but unlike Ilsa, I don't remember enough about it to judge whether or not it would get by uncut.

I’ve only ever watched Ilsa once on YouTube years ago and have no idea if it was fully uncut or not, but I remember thinking the same that it would probably pass unscathed nowadays, a box set of all of them would certainly interest me

If memory serves, the only one that would definitely face cuts these days is Love Camp 7. Opinions on here years back (I think it was around 2012/13?)regarding Beast in Heat and Gestapos Last Orgy were a bit mixed, some thought both would pass or at least one, some thought neither. I'd also buy a boxset of them.

The Nazisploitation films should be cut for being shite.

In all seriousness though, i quite like them. They aren't good films, far from it in fact, but they have that sleaziness that runs throughout rather than individual scenes. I can't see any of them being cut nowadays.

Ilsa: She Wolf of the SS has quite a bit of sexualised violence in it, so some censors may still raise an eyebrow or two... on the other hand, SS Experiment Camp is available in the UK uncut; I watched the 88 Films release a few days ago. So... I guess it depends on the BBFC and the mood of their censors on the respective day.

@ Rik: this box set is complete and uncut - osCommerce

Approx. 30 quid including postage, if my calculation is correct.

The only Nazisploitation films which have any artistic merit are Salò, or the 120 Days of Sodom, Salon Kitty and The Night Porter. The others are enjoyable in a sleazy way and would probably be passed uncut.

There are a couple – I can't think which is the moment – where the sexual violence would be problematic, but I guess it would be covered by an 18 certificate as it's no worse than the 2009 version of The Last House on the Left, which the MPAA and BBFC passed uncut for home viewing.

Despite the subject matter, you can't take any of the Nazi films seriously anymore. Even the notorious Beast in Heat, is laughable nowadays.
I shouldn't think why any of them wouldn't pass uncut with an 18 certificate.
