Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks (Kino Cult #41)

TBA • NR • Series • Catalog pick

"Cult movie superstar Dyanne Thorne reunited with director Don Edmonds to revive the sadistic, sex-crazed character who made her a legend in Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks. Assisted by her twin assassins, Satin (Tanya Boyd, Black Shampoo) and Velvet (Marilyn Joe, Black Samurai), Ilsa serves the perverted pleasures of a decadent oil baron and sex-trafficker, El Sharif (Jerry Delony). An American diplomat (Richard Kennedy) and military officer (Max Thayer) try to gain access to El Sharif’s oil, but once they witness the horrible pleasures of his desert playground, will they be allowed to escape? Produced in the wake of the 1973 OPEC oil crisis, the sequel abandons the Nazis of Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS in favor of a fresh stereotype custom-cut for its time, and proves itself to be just as tasteless and politically incorrect as its predecessor. *Ilsa, Harem Keeper of the Oil Sheiks contains scenes of graphic violence and sexuality that some audiences may find offensive. Viewer discretion is advised.
