Absolutely. Also there is this. Which I'm only sharing because I've just discovered this poster and film.
Wikipedia says the dialogue is in Latin!
Always a delight to find a new C-list ancient themed movie. These are my favorite dumb films because I always know what to expect but am still constantly surprised.
I've heard about this, a great find! It seems to euhemerise the founding myth, which seems to fall into that 'historical Rome' pattern. I know that Italian pepla had Roman gods on screen, but pepla are another, even bigger can of worms (their milieu seems to mashup everything ancient).
