Rome against Rome (1964)

Swords and sandals meet spaghetti horror in this bygone b-movie classic, notable for being the most historically accurate depiction of the Roman Empire’s Zombie Civil War. After a band of renegades absconds with their loot, Roman centurion Gaius (Ettore Manni) sets out to get it back. But rebel leader Aderbad (John Drew Barrymore) draws upon the supernatural abilities of a mysterious idol to zombify his legionaries. Now fearsome warriors, the undead soldiers rise up against the Roman army. Dun-dun-dun! Dir: Giuseppe Vari; Starring: John Drew Barrymore, Susy Andersen and Ettore Manni. More movies at Mike TV!
