Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
stepflan Don't listen to the other reviewers. This is a great exploitation flick that delivers the goods. Sure this movie isn't as good as the first one, Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS. But this is my second favourite Ilsa movie. It's certainly better than the boring Wicked Warden. Ilsa, Tigress of Siberia is loaded with weird sex scenes and graphic violence. It doesn't really have as much blood and gore as the original either. But it doesn't matter in this movie. I actually found the story to be kind of interesting. Maybe that's just me, but compared to Wicked Warden and Harem Keeper this is a lot of fun, even though the first half of the movie is a little better than the second.The thing I really liked about Ilsa, the Tigress of Siberia is the way the story is told. The storyline switches Anyone who is interested in exploitation movies should catch this movie.
BA_Harrison In this, the last of the series, Ilsa is back in command of a prison camp—Gulag 14 in the frozen wastes of Siberia. It is 1953, and Stalin rules Russia with an iron fist; Ilsa's job is to reform political prisoners using every and any means necessary, and in between torturing and killing, she takes time out to have threesomes with the camp guards.Of course, in true Ilsa fashion, there is one particular inmate that piques her interest—the unbreakable Andrei Chikurin—and she makes it her mission to both brainwash him and bed him. She fails to do either, and just as she is about to feed him to a tiger, she learns that her beloved Stalin is dead and flees the scene, burning Gulag 14 to the ground to destroy any evidence of her crimes. Andrei crawls from the blazing camp as Ilsa escapes with her most trusted henchmen.The movie then fast forwards to Montreal ,1977. Andrei is now manager of the visiting Russian Olympic hockey team. He is talked into taking two of the players to a brothel (so that they can sample American women before returning home) which, unbeknownst to him, is owned by none other than his old adversary Ilsa. With the help of her Russian sidekicks, the busty bitch has been forcing local mob bosses to sign over their businesses before dumping them into a frozen lake, trapped inside metal drums. On spotting Andrei, Ilsa decides that she will finish the job she failed to do 24 years previously...The Siberian bound first half of the film is by far the best part of the film, since it allows Dyanne Thorne's busty sadist full reign to do what she does best: torture, maim and kill. She is one happy bunny hauling the men under ice, forcing them to arm-wrestle over running chain saws (a standout scene), feeding them to the tiger and impaling them on huge wooden stakes. This girl sure loves her work!! The only downside is that the camp is all male—I really missed the gratuitous 'naked babe' shower scenes.Fortunately, the second half of the film offers plenty of nudity and more than makes up for the lack of T&A in the first. What it does lack, however, is the sleaze factor; Ilsa's preferred method of torture in '77 is via a hi-tech computer (a laughably crap box with randomly flashing buttons) which pinpoints one's innermost fears and then projects holographic images of these 'terrors' into the room in which the prisoner is trapped. Call me old fashioned, but I like the traditional methods best.Whilst not quite up to the standards of the first two films, Tigress of the Siberia is well worth a look for fans of exploitation and there is plenty to be enjoyed.And what of Ilsa? She has to leave in a hurry when Russian special agents storm her stronghold; racing away on a snowmobile, she crashes, breaking her ankle. We leave her stranded in a frozen wasteland, unable to walk, burning her bags of money in order to keep warm as the sun drops below the horizon— what a great way to end the series!
EVOL666 I don't see what the big deal is here...Almost all the other reviewers seem to hate this film, and I don't really get it. After the goofy, uninspired HAREM KEEPER, and the pretty dull sleaze-fest WICKED WARDEN, I was pleasantly surprised with TIGRESS. It's no masterpiece by any means, but this one had some inventive torture and a decent amount of tits-and-ass. This one has the mammoth-mounded Ilsa playing baby-sitter to a bunch of Russian traitors in the first half of the film, and a Canadian whorehouse madam in the second half. Yes, the story is definitely a little disjointed, almost playing like 2 different films, but I think this one had a good balance between sex and gore, and enough sleazy humor to make it an all-around worthwhile and entertaining entry. Definitely worth checking out if you like the series (or sleazy exploit cinema in general), but you may have a hard time finding it - I don't believe that there is a DVD release as of yet (at least not in the States), so start scouring those old mom-and-pop video stores. Regardless of what the other guys say, I like this one - 8/10
Dr. Gore *SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*Ilsa. Sweet, voluptuous Ilsa. Large breasted, woman of my dreams Ilsa. She's been a Nazi, a Harem Keeper, and a Wicked Warden. Now she is a Tigress of Siberia...and Montreal? Welcome to the weakest of the Ilsa movies. It's a sad, sad day. I still love her though.Ilsa runs a gulag in the middle of Siberia. This time she tries to break male prisoners for Mother Russia. My favorite scene was having the two prisoners arm wrestle with two chainsaws on either side of them. Whoever is weakest will lose a hand. That was deliciously gruesome. At the movie's midway point, it shifts gears and moves to Montreal. Now Ilsa is Madam Ilsa, running a prostitution ring. Her past catches up to her in a big battle at the end.This movie has two big, obvious problems. One, the Ilsa movies are based around Ilsa dishing out torture to FEMALE prisoners. Obviously that allows for more delirious exploitation. The prisoners can be naked most of the time and Ilsa can rip off her clothes as well for the cherry on top. Here, she's running a MALE prison camp and no one wants to see these guys naked. Except maybe Ilsa. This is the movie's fatal mistake right from the get go. The other problem is sticking a prison movie in freezing winter weather. Ilsa is wearing a fur coat through most of the first half and no one wants that. I think the movie realized both of these errors too late. The movie shifts locations to Montreal in the second half so Ilsa can get some naked prostitutes working in the movie immediately. The fact that the second half of the movie isn't even a prison movie anymore is another letdown.So is there anything good? Yes. Her name is ILSA. She gets naked about three or four times. She also has three short sex scenes. Nothing to get too worked up over but they're still nice. There are a few interesting exploitation scenes along the way too. Worth a look if you love ILSA movies. If they're not your bag, don't bother.Ilsa is great. The movie is a disappointment.
