    • Trivia
      This film was a co-production between the British company Raymond Stross Productions, Ltd. and the Italian company Titanus Films and was completed in 1954. Cornel Wilde then filed suit to restrain the film's release because he felt the original dubbing did a disservice to his wife, Jean Wallace, who appeared in the film as "Katrina." Wilde dropped the suit after United Artists Corp. agreed to pay to re-dub and re-score the film in exchange for distribution rights.

    Cornel Wilde rules in your field!!

    Cornel Wilde shines for years in this kind of movie as swashbuckler, an actor of scarce talent, but had a rare sikill on sword, then he had a dozen movies in this fertile field, mostly of them a B-movie on low budge but very popular in those time, this picture wasn't available in Brazil, as said the previus reviewer it's come from foreign TV recording called Movie 4 men, l have the same copy but sadly in bad subtitles, even so hoping a day it came to the light as an official release!!
