It's mostly an excuse to show off the bodies of former Playboy Playmates Karen McDougal and Lisa Dergan. Go to Full Review

05/20/2015 Roger Corman New Concorde direct-to-video release to cash in on the success of "Gladiator". An update of the (much better) Pam Grier 1974 film. Regrettable effort only made worse by the constant splicing of the film, which made it feel like a 90's music video. They say every cloud has a silver lining and I guess here it is the Playmate cast of female servants. See more 01/12/2015 In the glory days of Rome; one Governor enlists beautiful slave girls as gladiators when able warriors are no longer available for the grand spectacle of the arena. Karen McDougal and Lisa Dergan quickly make bloodthirsty audiences forget about past competitors as servants to the empire. A worthy film with plenty of historical merit that chronicles not only the pageantry of Rome but also the origins of barbarian uprising. See more Read all reviews
