One of several films following the release of Tinto Brass' unbelievable 'Caligula', 'Caligula and Messalina' stars John Turner this time as the deranged Roman Emperor, who is having an affair with his sister, makes his beloved horse a Senate and gruesomely tortures conspirators to death. His other lover Agrippina wants her son Nero to eventually become Emperor - and starts plotting his death. Meanwhile, Messalina (played by the sexy Betty Roland) is also plotting away with her Mother, in order to become Empress of Rome, and brings herself to Caligula's attention as a gladiator. Caligula falls in love with Messalina, who Agrippina describes as "a cheap little trollop", but when she over hears a new plot to get rid of the deranged Emperor, she sets her lustful sights on Claudius instead, the next in line to rule. With Caligula dead and Claudius in power, Messalina becomes Empress and starts sleeping with everyone in Rome, including Salvatore Boccaro, aka Sal Boris, the pubic hair munching caged sex machine from 'SS Hell Camp' and other Italian exploitation classicks (e.g. 'Salon Kitty'). Messalina gets all excited at the sight of this grotesque looking tubby man: "Quickly, I'm anxious to hoist your mast and sail to paradise!" she says, before Sal jumps on top of her...still wearing his sandals and socks! What a guy! Agrippina meanwhile is still plotting away, in order to become Empress of Rome herself, and when Messalina meets up with her child hood sweet heart things start leading to a predictably unhappy (well, for Messalina, anyway) and gruesome climax. Not nearly as sexually graphic or violent as either the original 'Caligula' or D'Amato's film, this is strictly soft core all the way - bar two scenes involving mating horses (taken from 'The Beast') and donkeys (filmed specifically for this film). I wouldn't call this historically accurate exactly (there's an understatement!), but I'll let that pass as the film at least tries to pile on the sleaze to make up for its other shortcomings: even though everything that goes on here is too cheesy to be offensive. For instance, during a torture sequence, a man is seen chained upside down and hacked between the legs with a sword, causing him to bleed to death. This could have been disturbing, if not for the fact the victim has been stripped down to a ghastly pair of black pants, which just made me smile with amusement. The rape of a bride and groom, also seen in the Penthouse version, is re-played here, only Caligula rapes the guy with his penis this time and not his fist. There is also a threesome involving a midget and scenes of incest. What really lets 'Caligula and Messalina' down though are the number of scenes borrowed from other films that have been spliced in to the movie. When ever the screenplay calls upon the need for sequences involving large crowds, battles or moments of mass destruction, the film switches to borrowed footage that doesn't fit well with what was actually shot by Pass, who simply cuts back and forth between this stock footage and his actors looking on from a far (and occasionally waving their hands). It looks goofy ...about the only positive thing you can say about these scenes are that they provide some kind of comedy value. As roman history exploitation flicks go, 'Caligula and Messalina' is more like 'Caligula's Slaves' as opposed to D'Amato's excellent 'Caligula...The Untold Story'. Watchable, but unmemorable. In fact, I also prefer the comedy sex flick 'Messalina! Messalina!' (starring the unbelievably sexy Anneka De Lorenzo), which was filmed using the sets of the original Penthouse masterpiece. A Japanese Laserdisc release of 'Caligula and Messalina' clocked in at around 75 minutes, shorn of all its pubic hair shots and some of the violence. More recently, a German disc (Laser Paradise) has surfaced with a running time of 108m, which appears to be uncut. The DVD is presented in widescreen (2.35:1) with German or English audio options. The image looks quite nice though some sequences on the English track appear in German audio only, and are of inferior picture quality. ░░░░░░▒▓█ [ Group News ] █▓▒░░░░░░
