Richard Harrison, everyone's third or fourth choice when it comes to a Eurotrash leading man, stars in this fantastical history lesson from director Roberto Mauri. Set during some imprecise period during the middle ages (I think), The Saracens tells the tale of the brave Christian folk of the Dalmatian coast, and their battles against the wicked and impious Turks, who wish to import Islam to Croatia. Shot on location to next to no effect, the film has all the usual ingredients of the genre: lots of action, lots of beautiful women in skimpy costumes, and an intensely wicked villain, Rabaneck (Demeter Bitenc). There's also a noble Muslim who sees the error of Rabaneck's ways and switches sides. There is absolutely nothing here that you haven't seen in a hundred other similar flicks, so your tolerance for The Saracens will depend on how you feel about early 60s sword and sandal movies in general.
