Description

Bob Chinn’s love of classic Hollywood and the world of B-pictures is reflected in this trio of capers, melodramas, and thrillers from Peekarama. 1945: Joe, an American GI, ends up stranded on a remote Pacific island after his ship is attacked. Initially believing he is alone, he soon discovers that the island is also home to a small Nazi outpost who have taken two American Red Cross nurses prisoner; subjecting them to unimaginable abuses. Determined to free his fellow freedom fighters, Joe hatches a daring plan, not realizing that he’s about to end up in the clutches of the enemy. A madly entertaining hybrid of Nazisploitation, war thriller, and bizarro satire, PRISONER OF PARADISE features superstars John Holmes and Seka. What appears to be a basic extramarital affair soon takes a more sinister turn as each of the participants reveal that their carnal involvement was a blackmail setup. Curious to figure out who, and why, they’ve been forced into such compromising positions, they decide to set a trap for their would-be blackmailers, only for the situation to turn deadly.
