Directed by Mario Bonnard

Starring Steve Reeves, Christina Kauffman, Barbara Carroll, & Anne Marie Baumann.

This was ironically the last film made by director Mario Bonnard, and it follows the pattern of the classic Italian costume dramas about macho or mythic heroes, in this case, a certain Glaucus (Steve Reeves, the glorious Greco-Roman past could not occur without him). Taking the cue from its larger-than-life hero, the story, set in 79 A.D., bounds from one spectacle to another without undue concern for nuanced dialogue or subtleties of character. Glaucus has to single-handedly tackle the brutal thugs that are taking over Pompeii and is forced to fight off a lion and a crocodile — though not all at the same time. He overcomes wounds and enemies in preparation for his toughest fight, that of rescue and survival when Mt. Vesuvius blows its top, the biggest and final spectacle in a series of battleground fireworks.

Running Time: 97 Minutes

  • Steve reeves rocks!!

  • This was apparently directed by Sergio Leone after Mario Bonnard fell ill, but Leone was never credited.

  • When i saw this i was a teenager ,this is the first time since then[1961]i've watched it thank you for that.As a cinematic presentation it was exciting and that still holds.Excellent film. Although this may seem an odd remark to make ,the less said about the acting the better.

  • Back when Men were men and Women were glad of it. :P

  • a classic movie. Thanks for uploading

  • C'est curieux car le générique est en français et le film en version anglaise. J'avais cru un moment qu'on aurait la version française. Mais enfin, c'est pas trop génant, j'ai ce film dans ma vidéothèque. J'ai beaucoup aimé ce film mais perso, youtube a pu mettre la version de la série de1984 sur youtube. J'attends avec impatience la version française et si un jour elle passe en dvd, je suis preneuse pour l'acheter.
