The best Sandokan before Kabir Bedi
There is no doubt that Steve Reeves has been the best actor to impersonate the famous Malaysia's Tiger created by the italian writer Emilio Salgari.
At least the best before the coming to the italian tv screen of the indian actor Kabir Bedy, the best Sandokan ever.
The movie directed by the italian Umberto Lenzi is very good, with a good screen play and photography.
Absolutely a must to see for esotic adventures' lovers.

The film contains many great set pieces such as elephant stampedes, tiger wrestling and head hunting natives predating Director Lenzi's later infamous cannibal forays which makes for an enjoyable 100 minute affair. Genre stalwart Andrea Bosic and the beautiful Genevieve Grad who played in other sword and sandal films are along for the party. It has great location photography lensed on the island of Ceylon by Angelo Lotti and Aurelio Guiterez Larrata and a rousing music score by Giovanni Fusco. Warner Archive presents the film in a 2.35 widescreen...
