WENDY'S (not to be confused with the hamburger chain, which maintains a far higher level of consistency in its product) has three talkie sequences, all poorly done with bad sound editing, uneven sound levels, bored/flat readings by star Eve Orlon & co. Though Nick began his career doing talkies a decade earlier with NUDES ON CREDIT he apparently forgot the technique due to relying on MOS shoots ever since, and it shows here. Film appears to have been conceived (to borrow that odd term from the recent trailer for the James Cameron production SANCTUM, "conceived in 3-D") as a softcore film. Opening scene has Eve Orlon as Wendy humping her creepy boy friend and red-monochrome closeup shots are inserted in the action to make it XXX. Orlon was a popular hard porn actress, but she does not participate in any insertion shots at all in WENDY'S. Later in the film there are several hardcore sex sequences, but they are merely shot like loops, thrown into the film with Orlon merely watching as a voyeur, the oldest trick in the book.

"Bordel SS" recalls the time when hardcore films were just that; real movies, shot on actual film stock. Most of them were still pretty weak, despite having the larger budgets. This WWII porn epic is an exception; competent, professional camera work, realistic period costumes, fine soundtrack, and best of all, a script that is both interesting and historically accurate. THIS is a true example of how hardcore can become art. What is so remarkable about this one is, even though it shows hardcore sex, (erections, on screen penetration etc), there are no cheap close ups of genitalia. Normally in porn films there are endless scenes where the camera zooms in on genitalia. But here, those cheap shots are noticeably absent. The result is an erotic film that is sexy, without being vulgar. The sex is still on the screen, but here you can always see full bodies, and faces, and therefore don't lose connection with the characters and parts they are playing. The camera work is excellent, so much so that you feel that you are watching a mainstream film. Featuring excellent music that is appropriate to the period, as well as realistic Nazi uniforms that look better than costumes in some Hollywood productions.
