A fantastic yarn about a plot to conquer the world with an army of zombies! The fusion of Gothic horror and peplum had already been attempted as early as 1961 in Mario Bava's lush 'Ercole al centro della terra' and Sergio Corbucci's 'Maciste contro il vampiro', 1962 had seen 'Maciste all'inferno', dwelling on an idea already used in a homonymous silent (1925).

In 1964, there came 'Roma contro Roma'. Director Giuseppe Vari is one of the more talented sort in Cinecitta, and he delivers the goods, even builds in some moments of exploitative and sleazy fun.

The story (English dub) goes thus: In a deliberately non-defined pseudo-historical setting in the Roman Empire, the Sarmatians attack and defeat a Roman legion, stealing the gold they had with them. Since Rome doesn't hear of the legate in the region, it sends a consul (Ettore Manni, the hero) to inquire. He soon finds out that the Sarmatians are manipulated by an evil magician (his name Adherbad is similar to a North-African one, Adherbal...) and priest of the 'daughter of Osiris', a three-eyed goddess which seems to demand human sacrifice. The Roman legate happens to be a traitor, and so is his wife Tullia (Susy Anderson). The consul catches her interest, but he falls in love with her slave (Ida Galli), who happens to be a priestess of the goddess...

Apart from some competent and well-paced story-telling which involves some handsome spooky stuff such as a deadly (voodoo) doll, walking virgins on charcoals and a group of disgusting leprous henchmen at the bad guy's disposal (including an old hag) - they nearly rape Galli's character at one point -, we also get a dark and energetic score by Roberto Nicolosi and some fine make-up and lighting. There are only a handful of sets at the director's disposal, and only a couple of outside shots (much of the movie plays in a cave, and there is no Russian or Ukrainian scenery, to be sure), but Vari and his cinematographers use them with a great sense for variety. Night scenes are a bit on the dark side, though.

The film is memorable for its zombie army, a myriad of dead Roman soldiers resurrected by Adherbad (they rise from the tomb) and marching against the capital. Effects are rather on the cheap side, though. The spookiness of the army as it approaches in a 'black cloud' is suggested by psychedelic (i.e. violet and pink) smears superimposed over the stock footage of combating Roman armies. The soundtrack's spooky mode is cool, though, sporting some weird and eerie chorus vocals. That's what the movie is maybe best at, creating atmosphere. There's plenty of it. On the down side, the stock footage battle scenes do get tiring, since they have been put together in an uninspired and seemingly haphazard way - and they take far too long. The finale, however, delivers again, as the hero stands up against Adherbad, Tullia and the goddess to save his beloved slave and priestess.

Blonde Susy Anderson is a great femme fatale here - as opposed to the good queen she played in 'Le Gladiatrici'; her wardrobe accents her buxom shapeliness. Ida Galli's appearance is aptly virginal. John Drew Barrymore's Adherbad is very fine; passing right through his excessive makeup, he delivers a credible and enjoyable sorcerer whose demise is deliciously humiliating. Ettore Manni plays the hero with stern rigidity, which is fine, given he's playing a Roman consul.

In addition, the film doesn't have any humorous or light-hearted note, the consul's servant Satyrus being the only exception; his character, which was, as the name indicates, designed for comic relief, luckily is given (negligible) room only in the movie's final shot.

All in all, an enjoyable Italian peplum ride, known mostly for the concept of the army of zombie Romans marching against their own capital, but turning out to be a fine and creative sword & sandal adventure in its own right. Even though the "zombies" don't appear until well after an hour into the film, this movie still is able to hold its own as a b-grade "sword and sandal" flick. The high priest of a "goddess of gold" is amassing an army of slain Roman soldiers that he brings back to "life" to fight against their former comrades (hence the title). Subplots include romance for a noble centurion and a virtuous maidservant under the control of the goddess, treachery amongst the Roman nobility, lots of swordplay, and the "zombies" are more like ghosts--the Roman army cannot hurt them, but they lay some serious casualties on them. Only one who is brave enough to face the goddess can break her curse and defeat both the evil high priest and the army of the undead and free the lovely maidservant from the spell. It's no "Ben Hur" or "Spartacus", but I wouldn't shun it if it came packaged with similar flicks. A fun watch. 646f9e108c
