By Daniel Jolley HALL OF FAME TOP 500 REVIEWER
Maybe I've seen too many of these John Bacchus movies from Seduction Cinema. I know how exceedingly silly and juvenile these films can be, so the completely farcical nature of Gladiator Eroticus was certainly not a shock to my system. I also know what kind of activities go on in these movies, and I just didn't find this one very erotic at all. This is disappointing given the fact that my three favorite Seduction Cinema starlets, Misty Mundae, Darian Cane, and Katie Jordan, are all featured herein. The story is simple, ludicrous, and relatively unimportant. Darian Cane plays Eroticus, the leading general of Rome, one who achieves victory on the battlefield in her own special way, one that does not involve armor or weapons or even clothes. The emperor wants her to be the next leader of the Roman people, but the emperor's idiotic son assumes the throne after he sort of kills his father. He orders the death of Eroticus, but she defeats her would-be killers (who are, fortunately for her, female), and escapes only to be captured and taught the ways of lesbian gladiator fighting. In this way she works her way back toward Rome with the goal of exacting revenge on the emperor.

Misty Mundae saves this movie from complete failure. She plays the sister of the new emperor, and he keeps her close to his side for the first two-thirds of the film. Once she finally has a chance to engage in the gladiator-like activities taking Rome by storm, the movie becomes much better. This is actually a rather large-scale project for the Seduction Cinema folks; all this really means is that there are more actors than usual included in the cast and that the whole Roman army, instead of numbering a handful of soldiers, seems to consist of about twenty people. This is unquestionably a bare-bones sort of production. Almost all of the action takes place out in the open, and computer-generated Roman-looking buildings are supposed to make us envision Rome itself as the setting. The plot itself pretty much stinks, coming pretty close to giving Mistress Frankenstein a run for its money in terms of its rottenness. Bacchus got some of his jollies with the idea of a "vomitorium" this time around, and this does not help his cause. One thing about this film particularly galls me, though. The voices of Darian Caine and Jade DuBoir are dubbed over with some he-man-sounding female voices which sound utterly ridiculous. I really can't recommend this film to anyone besides Misty Mundae fans; she is much too good for a movie this ridiculous.

4.0 out of 5 stars Gladiator budgeticus! 30 Dec 2008
The reviewer who could see better on tv at night obviously must pay for tv that the rest of us don't get, as I haven't seen much on tv recently that has a unique blend of budget, humour, silly acting and, as the title may suggest, and odd bit of eroticus (well quite a bit!).

Don't buy this if you are looking for Oscar material, but do buy if you want to take your brain out, put it in a box, have a laugh, see some nice women and not worry about anything for 90 minutes.

If they aired films like this more often on TV it may even be worth the TV licence fee.

3.0 out of 5 stars Ridley Scott needn't worry! 18 Dec 2002
By A Customer
This just goes to show what you can do with some very attractive girls, a cast of 20 and a budget of about £2.50.
Trying to faithfully recreate the original Gladiator film's opening scene with 10 enthusiastic actors in a wood is extremely entertaining, as is the fact that ancient Rome is portraied by a forest. The whole scipt seems to be half made up on the spot, although it's tongue is planted very firmly in it's cheek.
The sex scenes are pretty good on the whole, although they can go on a bit long, with the camera focused on just an elbow! The only problem with a film of this sort is that there are only a few different women, so it ends up showing the same ones over and over.

In the main this film is very low budget, very humourous and fairly tittilating. It's probably worth more as a laugh with some friends than a piece of Erotica though.
