The Olga series were a series of films produced by George Weiss (Glen or Glenda) and directed by Joseph P. Mawra. The series is known as one of the earliest "roughie" sexploitation films of the 1960s. Starring Audrey Campbell as the sadistic white slaver Olga, Weiss unleashed Olga's House of Shame (which he also co-wrote), White Slaves of Chinatown, Olga's Girls (all from 1964), Mme. Olga's Massage Parlor (1965), and Olga's Dance Hall Girls (1969). Weiss has a brief role as a doctor in White Slaves of Chinatown. Although tame by today's standards, the series was shocking and unique in its day. Underground film maker John Waters sites Olga's House of Shame as a major early influence.
