Verbatim Box Synopsis

A terrifying story of violence and madness set in a camp of re-inforced concrete and wire during World War II.

Some of the prisoners got out -- the lucky few -- and some of them didn't, those who didn't were left to suffer the isolation of the concentration camp and the ruthlessness of Hitler's elite band of Nazi guards.

This is the story of those who didn't escape.  A story of the destruction of men and history and the Nazi pledge to shock and plunder.

Notes
Bob Monell from I'm in a Jess Franco State of Mind had the following amusing remarks about this film: "Crazed use of stock footage, some of it reversed [!]. I asked Alain Petit, one of the scriptwriters, about this and he told me Eurocine ignored his screenplay and just cut and pasted it together. Demented music also. Harrison looks miserable."
