Life of Roman Emperor Caligula, done as a historical epic sprinkled liberally and ineptly with hardcore pornography. Penthouse publisher Bob Guccione started with a script by Gore Vidal, hired name stars such as McDowell and O'Toole, and had Tinto Brass direct it. Hardcore scenes directed by others were spliced in afterwards. The end result is something approaching awful, though it must be admired for its audacity.
