4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Film, August 9, 2001

By 

Slade Simon "slade37" (Scottsdale, AZ USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Gladiator Eroticus (DVD)

As other reviewers have pointed out, this movie is an erotic spoof of Gladiator.

This is a VERY low-budget movie. It's like a group of friends got together to have some fun acting the plot out. I wasn't expecting anything here. I was assuming it would be something mindless. It turned out not to be totally mindless.

The humor is extremely silly - beyond what you might in Airplane! or Naked Gun. There are a few good moments which I don't think I should state in a place which can be viewed by all ages. I'm tempted to make comparisons with the director Ed Wood, but that could be a little misleading since he never did porn. There is plenty of overacting and bad dialogue. ...but it's fun.

Even with the bad jokes, there is a plot here. The weapons are plastic toys. The main female gladiator fights don't really involve weapons. Two women approach each other and then they quickly touch each other in a sexual manner or move their tongues rapidly. Most of the fights are orgies - all girls. No men involved. There are a few traditional gladiator type fights, but they're just there to move the story along. I could have done without the vomit scene.

For me, the movie was enjoyable, but not a classic. I simply viewed it as a Gladiator spoof with some sex added in. I liked it because I studied Latin and Roman culture in college, and it was neat to see this type of a production on that subject. ...even if it may not be 100% (or even 40%) historically accurate.

There is a nice interview with Misty Mundae included. ...a normal interview. Just comments about her daily routine and a few things about the production.

1.0 out of 5 stars Stupid. A waste of money!, February 23, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Gladiator Eroticus Collector's Edition VHS (VHS Tape)

I had high hopes that this video would be both entertaining and erotic. I was wrong on both counts. The guys at Seduction Cinema seem to be losing it more and more with each new video they release. They try too hard to be funny, and the erotic content of their products has really bottomed out as well! But WHY? They have some of the best-looking actresses in the business! And some of their previous releases showed a lot of talent. I used to really like watching their stuff! But this thing was stupid! The story line is clearly a parody of "Gladiator," except that it's about beautiful nude women making love to eachother instead of men fighting & killing eachother. So far, so good. But the writers of this trash don't seem to understand that their sophomoric humor wears off very quickly. And when an erotic scene finally DOES begin, there's an edit about every two seconds! It's really, really annoying! Not that we're missing all that much. Despite the plethora of beautiful women in the cast, their scenes are unimaginative and not particularly erotic --- I mean, there's nudity, but that's about all. Maybe I'm expecting too much from this company. Or maybe they simply need to hire some new writers who possess some creativity and/or talent!

2.0 out of 5 stars The only good thing about this movie is Misty Mundae, April 11, 2003

This review is from: Gladiator Eroticus (DVD)

Maybe I've seen too many of these John Bacchus movies from Seduction Cinema. I know how exceedingly silly and juvenile these films can be, so the completely farcical nature of Gladiator Eroticus was certainly not a shock to my system. I also know what kind of activities go on in these movies, and I just didn't find this one very erotic at all. This is disappointing given the fact that my three favorite Seduction Cinema starlets, Misty Mundae, Darian Cane, and Katie Jordan, are all featured herein. The story is simple, ludicrous, and relatively unimportant. Darian Cane plays Eroticus, the leading general of Rome, one who achieves victory on the battlefield in her own special way, one that does not involve armor or weapons or even clothes. The emperor wants her to be the next leader of the Roman people, but the emperor's idiotic son assumes the throne after he sort of kills his father. He orders the death of Eroticus, but she defeats her would-be killers (who are, fortunately for her, female), and escapes only to be captured and taught the ways of lesbian gladiator fighting. In this way she works her way back toward Rome with the goal of exacting revenge on the emperor.

Misty Mundae saves this movie from complete failure. She plays the sister of the new emperor, and he keeps her close to his side for the first two-thirds of the film. Once she finally has a chance to engage in the gladiator-like activities taking Rome by storm, the movie becomes much better. This is actually a rather large-scale project for the Seduction Cinema folks; all this really means is that there are more actors than usual included in the cast and that the whole Roman army, instead of numbering a handful of soldiers, seems to consist of about twenty people. This is unquestionably a bare-bones sort of production. Almost all of the action takes place out in the open, and computer-generated Roman-looking buildings are supposed to make us envision Rome itself as the setting. The plot itself pretty much stinks, coming pretty close to giving Mistress Frankenstein a run for its money in terms of its rottenness. Bacchus got some of his jollies with the idea of a "vomitorium" this time around, and this does not help his cause. One thing about this film particularly galls me, though. The voices of Darian Caine and Jade DuBoir are dubbed over with some he-man-sounding female voices which sound utterly ridiculous. I really can't recommend this film to anyone besides Misty Mundae fans; she is much too good for a movie this ridiculous.
