War Gods of Babylon (1962) 35mm Anamorphic Widescreen Edition DVD :

(1962) Howard Duff, Jocelyn Lane, Luciano Marin, Giancarlo Sbragia, Arnoldo Foa, Jose Greci.  A powerful king and his naïve younger sibling go eyeball to eyeball over the affections of a gorgeous young peasant woman.  While this is happening a sinister plot is is hatched against both brothers by a power-lusting general.  There’s a lot of cool sword and sandal action and intrigue throughout this peplum epic, but the highlight is when the primeval gods unleash their wrath upon the ancient city of Nineveh, sending a monstrous storm to wipe it out.  The scenes of walls crumbling beneath flood waters and people drowning like rats are amazing!  Wow…  Gorgeous color, 35mm.
