An Original Vintage Theatrical Folded Italian Two-Panel (known in Italy as a "4 Fogli") Movie Poster (2p; measures 55" x 78" [140 x 198 cm]) (Learn More) Roma Contro Roma (released in the U.S. in 1965 as "War of the Zombies"), the 1964 Giuseppe Vari Italian Ancient Rome Italy sword-and-sandal undead horror fantasy battle epic ("Unconquerable Warriors of the Damned!"; "See The blood dance of the zombies! The undead cross swords with the living! The goddess of the Night Star whose gaze mummifies men! A living beauty turned into a Zombie!"; about a group of Roman soldiers who are slaughtered by insurgents, and a crazy sorcerer raises them from the dead, and has them march on the insurgents!) starring John Drew Barrymore, Susy Andersen (billed as "Susi Andersen"), Ettore Manni, Ida Galli, and Mino Doro. Note that this movie was called "Rome Against Rome" in Italy, because a group of zombified Roman soldiers attack the city, but when it was released in the U.S., the distributor knew that this title would have little meaning to U.S. audiences, and instead they seized on the zombie plot and gave it the much more commercial title of "War of the Zombies"! It is likely one of the very few historical sword-and-sandal movies that also includes lots of zombies! NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography.
