Medical experiments were not confined to ethnic or religious undesirables- such as the Jews. They were rather routinely conducted on POW"s and crime suspects by the SS and often SS Medical Officers, who were trained but somewhat unethical MD"s cooperated, not merely examining corpses and grabbing parts for anatomy lessons like the famous Dr. Herman Voss, still widely popular as a textbook anatomist and he is required study material in German medical schools- his anatomy book went into something like 37 editions, like Webster:s or something Very few movies dealt with Nazi Medical experiments. Truth drugs, to get information on war intelligence or crimes, was one ( arguably legitimate) goal, not stark torture. If there was little phycial discomfort, this would not be materially different than the use of Polygraphs or Lie Detectors as they are commonly called. Few films deal with Nazi (Forensic) medicine and I don:t mean the Quincy or White room stiff variety.
