What's the film about?
Not strictly related to the Biblical story: mighty Samson and his pals fight against Warkalla, dictator of Sullan... Apart from its inherent silliness, this is a childish but rather competently made peplum, with a nice humorous touch. Not surprisingly, Parolini will later enjoy a second career in Spaghetti westerns. His tongue-in-cheek interview is a must-see for genre aficionados.
