Musings!


A wounded Agi Murad (Steve Reeves) is transported to his enemies in THE WHITE WARRIOR (1959)

This is the only film Steve did with director Riccardo Freda, who was a great director. I wished the two had done more films together. It's one of the many What If... the PEPLUM genre is riddled with. The scene previous to this one is one of the best scenes Steve acted and was involved with. Steve was solid when paired with a great director. The screenshot is from yet another HD copy of this movie I just got today! Why this film is not on Blu-ray I'll never know. All of Steve's films should be available on Blu-ray. 


Side note: Yesterday I got the Artus Films French Blu-rays of HERCULES (1958) and HERCULES UNCHAINED (1959). I'll have more on this in the future.

Are the Artus Hercules blu-rays region free?

PEPLUM TV said...

No. Blu-rays are region B and DVDs are region 2.

I am looking forward to your reviews and comments on the new Hercules and Hercules Unchained blu-rays!

It is a pity more of Reeves films aren't out on Blu-ray. There are Germans DVDs with English language options for The Trojan Horse, The Last Days of Pompeii, and Giant of Marathon but no sign yet of a Blu-ray release for any of them.
