My gateway into eurocult was this film. We rented the swedish VHS in 1984-1985, and I loved it so much I began hunting it 15 years later. What began as a hunt for original prints, posters, lobby cards etc – later led me to get in touch with Steve Hawkes whom I provided copies of all my prints, and he gave me his very rare “Stevie, Samson and Delilah” in return on a dvd transfer. Also met Ruggero Deodato who told me what he knew about Kitty Swan whom he had worked with on the 2nd Gungala film.
This film also led me to explore the universe of Marcello Giombini, whose score in this film is epic, and was later recycled (with some trimmer down changes) in Bitto Albertini’s “Zambo”.
Interesting note: Umberto Lenzi is credited as screenwriter on the english language version, but is not seen at all in the credits in the spanish version. I wonder if this was just a trick to get co-production money, or if he really was involved. However, these films were mainly written by the great Santiago Moncada, although I wouldn’t be surprised at all if Lenzi was involved in this film. Fans of Lenzi’s sixties adventures like “Temple of a thousand lights” will definitely appreciate this one. They share a similar vibe and adventure aura.
Italian (Tar)Zan looks promising! One IMDb’s reviewer complained about the level of violence, which ironically is a strong recommendation in my book!
Great.
Thanks
