By the Gods!

The cast from SPARTACUS AND THE TEN GLADIATORS (1964)

From left to right: Pietro Torrisi, Armando Bottin, Frank Oliveras, Romano Giomini, Enzo Fiermonte, Gianni Rizzo, Dan Vadis, Sal Borgese, Jeff Cameron, Aldo Canti, and Emilio Messina.

This screengrab was taken from a HD broadcast of the movie in France. Though the image is not perfect by any means (it's sorta soft and blurry; click on image to see more closely), it's the best version of this movie available anywhere. I believe it's a new copy of a print but up-converted to HD. Even so, it's great to see it in such an excellent resolution. Most PEPLUM movies will probably never get a proper HD release so these broadcasts are going to be the only real source of HD versions. A fun film that's better than the first one.
