A meeting with the cinema of exploitation.

In the university age, epoch of learning, challenges, freedom and findings, in one of so many evenings of leisure visiting a video club, investigating between the diverse titles, I me stumble with " Ilsa, She Wolf of the SS ".

Movie directed by Don Edmonds, which in the moment my name is the attention not only for the title if not for the art of his mask, which was giving myself an abreboca on what it would see, one offensive film, illogical, for many of badly taste, bloodily and (brave) crude oil, which was summarizing the essence of what is the cinema of exploitation also known like grindhouse, movies of under budget series B (not all the titles B are a cinema of exploitation).

On having seen the film run up with a kind that highlights lewd, violent topics, the terror, sex and drugs, brave and illogical topics, unacceptable and socially scandalous topics, making me hooked. The term comes for the cinematographic production of low budget that achieves the success exalting the rough before mentioned subject matters and not giving him emphasis to the aesthetics and quality of a movie production.

Aunque este genero cinematográfico viene desde 1896 con fims titulados Le Coucher de la Mariée, Electrocuting an Elephant y otros, no es si no hasta los años de 1940 en adelante que surge el término en si, dividiendo su historia en dos periodos. Uno que llega hasta los años 60 catalogado como clásico y otro moderno que es el que conocemos en la actualidad, del primer periodo no hay mucho que acotar solo que se basaba en producciones que evadían las leyes de censura de la época tocando temas como el abuso de drogas y el sexo prematrimonial.

Though this cinematographic kind comes from 1896 with fims graduates Him Coucher de la Mariée, Electrocuting an Elephant and others, it is not if not until the years of 1940 in forward that arises the term in if, dividing his history in two periods. One that comes until the 60s catalogued like classic and different modern that is the one that we know at present, of the first period it is not much that to annotate only that was basing on productions that were evading the laws of censorship of the epoch touching topics as the abuse of drugs and the premarital sex.

In his second (modern) period, it divides from the years of 1960 up to the current importance, developing a great quantity of productions thanks to the freedom cinematographic, it is not one if not up to the change of the legal bylaws of hollywood, when I generate this one it would begin to operate out of the circuit generating polemic and gaining the reputation of cinema illness, controversial and exagerate.

With the summit of the cinema of exploitation and the emergence of the same one in other one countries like Italy, Japan, England, China, France, Germany, Mexico and others there arises a wide range of currents which it is possible to enjoy and admire depending the topic of his interest, these subkinds present details that frame and exalt the incorporation of topics and elements of every topic, example: martial arts, rockabilly, sex, gore, etc), between the most well-known kinds they are:
