One of those Italian PEPLUM comedies from the 1970s with no English version, including subtitles. Edwige missed the PEPLUM explosion from a decade ago and this role sorta makes up for it. Franco is wearing one of those Mole Men helmets from MACISTE VS MOLE MEN. I wonder if any of those helmets still exist.
I have watched this movie several times. it's quite funny, I and my father love it. one of the funniest lines is when Nero is singing and the soldiers say: "cane, Nero!" which in Latin of course means "sing, o Nero!, but in Italian "cane nero" means "black dog", so franco franchi says "cane, nero", too and when ciccio asks him why he is saying so, franco answers: "he really sings like a black dog!", meaning that Nero was a very bad singer.
