We loved SCORPION KING ... tons of B-list actors shine in producer/writer Stephen Sommers' homage to the Peplum flicks of his youth. Every plot element is there ... strong Maciste figure, sacrificial good guy, hail-fellow-well-met brawl between the future friends, beautiful demi-goddess, implacable evil king, oppressed masses, dancing girls, multiple throw-offs, tavern scene, even The Boy who was played usually by Franco Gasparri ... they're all there.
