| Description |
This historical epic-drama, played out in the Hollywood cinematic style which had it's heyday in the '50s, is a classic tale of two brothers, heirs to the crown of Ancient Egypt, fighting each other to the death for the love of a woman. The action is played out with some of the most outrageous sight gags and use of visual effects and machinery you'll see this side of a Cecil B De Mille exravaganza. It's bigger than Ben Hur! |
