the ten gladiators (1963)

aka I dieci gladiatori. "Better the innocent are eliminated, then the criminals are left alive." Some hooded men, led by Glaucus Valerius (Roger Browne) try to kill the corrupt Claudius Nero (Gianni Rizzo), but a group of innocent gladiators, inc the Rock (Dan Vadis) are charged with the crime and told they are to be decapitated. Obviously they choose not to accept this arbitary judgement, and plan to escape...
Mixing in the struggle of Christianity into the story of Nero's crazy antics, this is an entertaining adventure of the Saturday matinee variety.
