    Olga's House of Shame

    OLGA'S HOUSE OF SHAME

    JOSEPH P. MAWRA United States, 1964

    The notorious exploitation entry that jumpstarted an entire “roughie” genre of S&M-tinged exploitation films. Audrey Cambell plays Olga, a sadistic jewel-thieving madame who hides in an abandoned mine and exacts all kinds of misery upon those who defy her—all told in oddball semi-documentary style.

    CHAINED GIRLS

    JOSEPH P. MAWRA United States, 1965

    This jaw-dropping non-documentary by sleaze sultan Joseph P. Mawra pulls out all the stops to paint a picture of the “plight” of the lesbian, circa 1965. Of course, it’s just a grindhouse picture for the raincoat crowd–but it’s also an amazing “accidental documentary” of mid-60s Greenwich Village.
