Featured review
Italian Peplum Movie with Gordon SCOTT and Genevieve GRAD
The young Nippur (Gordon SCOTT) returns to his homeland of Babylon after a long stay at the court of the Persian King Cyrus (Mario PETRI). His cousin Balthasar (Piero LULLI), who is under the ominous influence of a beautiful priestess named Ura (Moira ORFEI), now rules there. There are bound to be conflicts in which the young Tamira (Genevieve GRAD) also plays a major role.
This time the Italian sword and sandal film takes us to the time around 539 BC, when a certain Belshazzar ruled in Babylon and got into a major conflict with the Great King Cyrus. This film by Siro MARCELLINI is certainly not one of the best examples of the peplum cinema from the Roman film factory CINECITTA. Good entertainment for fans of the genre is guaranteed. The American bodybuilder and ex-Tarzan actor Gordon SCOTT cuts a dazzling figure as a champion of good. And a year later Genevieve GRAD would become the daughter of the GENDARM OF SAINT TROPEZ, played by the unforgettable Louis De FUNES.
In Italian cinemas, the rather modestly equipped sword and sandals film grossed 195 million ITL, while in West German cinemas it grossed the equivalent of around 350,000 EURO (from 358,000 cinema visits).
