Eye For Film >> Search >> 'Caligula'

Graphic retelling of the story of the Roman emperor.

A complete restructuring of the 1980 film, made from previously unused material shot at the same time, this is a fictionalised take on the story of Caligula as he kills his devious adoptive grandfather and takes control of the decadent Roman Empire, spiralling into depravity, devastation and madness.
