I prefer the un-PC Goliath Against the Arabs-title, but it seems to restricted to this video release, so... Anyway, a watchable but unexeptional arabian peplum best saved for a rainy day. 2/5

Arabian fantasy/Peplum. Italy/France. Starring Steve Reeves, Giorgia Moll, Arturo Dominici & Daniele Vargas. Directed by Arthur Lubin & Bruno Vailati.

Videosonic/Embassy (Greece). English dubbed. Fullscreen.

Good, well made arabian fantasy. Steve Reeves is total class as always, but plays the thief of Bagdad-role like his usual barechested peplum roles, which is fine by me. 3/5

Sodom and Gomorrah (1962)

Biblical. USA/Italy/France. Starring Stewart Granger, Stanley Baker, Rik Battaglia, Pier Angeli, Giacomo Rossi-Stuart, Anthony Steffen, Gabriele Tinti & Daniele Vargas. Directed by Robert Aldrich & Sergio Leone (uncredited).

Wahlters Video (Sweden). English dubbed. Letterboxed.

This biblical film is not badly made, and has a fairly high budget (a real Hollywood director, a fading american movie star and all), but it's a little too stuffy and preachy for my taste. I guess it's a trapping of the genre and that biblical films simply isn't my thing. In this flick I rooted for the decadent sodomites and not the goody-two-shoes christians. The destruction scenes were pretty impressive though - engineered by Sergio Leone no less. 2/5
