@Russellnificent: I'm not a smart-ass musician as you may think... Just a fan of silent movies who has already seen lots of fabulous music. Take e.g. a look at the work of Carl Davis, he's excellent! As Cabiria is considered an early masterpiece in movie history, they should treat it better.
Isaac Asimov, in his short story THE DEAD PAST, had a character believe that these child-sacrifices to Moloch were racist propaganda; the Carthaginians haven't left their own version of history, so we hear what was said about them by their enemies: The Greeks and Romans
D'Annunzio "si limita a rivedere le didascalie e a inventare il nome di qualche personaggio" non le scrive... Cit. "Introduzione alla storia del cinema" a cura di P.Bertetto
also note the hero having a vision of the giant machine turning into Moloch in Lang's METROPOLIS (which itself is evoked by the carnivorous laundry-machine in Stephen King's story THE MANGLER)
What a fucking mess of a score.

Looks like this inspired the heart-pulling sequence in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
